"Odi et amo, quare id facere forasse requiris...
Nescio, sed fieri sentio et excrucior"
(I hate and I love, perhaps you ask why I do it...I don't know, but I feel it and I'm tortured.)

Here is a great story from ScottI just discovered your cool site, and wanted to share some photos with you which you might enjoy. Back in 1999, I was living on the island of Bali in Indonesia, and my teenage kids decided they wanted to introduce the Halloween holiday to their Balinese friends. They held a party, and, when inviting their friends, suggested that anyone who wanted to could bring along a carved pumpkin as well. Only two kids took them up on their offer. One brought a traditional (and rather unimaginative) pumpkin, but the other brought the most amazing pumpkin I've ever seen.The pumpkins available in Bali are smaller than those found in North America, and have a harder and yellower skin, with a very thick rind. These traits make it hard to carve a traditional jack-o-lantern, but offered a unique opportunity for one enterprising Balinese lad. The carver, whose name is Gupa, was in 7th grade at the time. He started by skinning the pumpkin, and then carved a Balinese demon, with features in 3 dimensions. The result was very impressive, especially considering it was his first attempt at carving a pumpkin (he is, however, an accomplished and creative woodcarver).I have attached a photo of Gupa's creation. Pumpkin creativity is alive on the other side of the world!
