I have been to the edge, and it was messy.
The party of Dan Shapiro's was an event not to be forgotten. There must
have been about a hundred people that came by over the course of the
evening, with one task on their mind. Carve a Pumpkin. There were
Sawzalls with 14" blades, Jig Saws, Hand saws, Drill Motors with all the
attachments, Knives, Scrapers, Potato Peelers, Screwdrivers, Candles,
You name it, it was there. Almost All Pumpkins were carved in the front
room of Dans house, which was covered in plastic. As Promised, At 8:00
500 lb "Bertha" was opened. It was standing yard only. The event was
even highlighted with a short opera by an elaborately costumed Pumpkin
Queen, A wonderful performance also not to been soon forgotten.
Thank You Dan for a truly unforgettable event.

P.S. Was that thing hanging over your fireplace really a Chinese
communication satellite that never quite made it?
