Such a shame. There are always stupid people who do stupid things. We
have had jack-o-lantern vandals one year come. We went to my elementary
schools halloween festival one year to come home and find our pumpkins
smashed all over our driveway. Fortunately it was towards the end of the
night, but its the principle of the thing :).
On pumpkins, i have a new pumpkin plant coming up. Unfortunately its a
bit late in the year for the fruit to be ready in time (it doesn't even
have a true leaf yet!). I guess the seed was left over when I tried to
grow some earlier, since i threw a few of the remaining seeds out in the
backyard, so it must be one of those (they all were eaten, so I gave up in
favor of the Tomatoes :)).
