There is pumpkin carving in my near future. We got three small freebies and one big one (at .69/lb). My wife says the small ones (6-8" diameter) are "too small" for carving. Should I believe her?

I'd like to make a puking pumpkin this year. Do I need to leave the seeds in the "puke" for authenticity, or can I roast 'em like I really, really want to?

Yes, they are too small. They are great for making pumpkin pie, though.

Puking pumpkin. I'd take the seeds out. you still get the desired effect and get some roasted goodness with only 20 minutes baking.

A puking pumpkin would be really funny. You could have it puke up candy corns because that is a candy that is "pukable"

One year I carved a pumpking with a suprised look and then stuck a knife into it. It scared my roommates when they saw it in the window

Yes, that's way too small. Puking Pumpkin, I love it.

That T.T.S.S gives a very interesting explanaitonto his/her philosophy.

there is only one site i know of. you will find it if you are seeking as a child. you too will meet the people. not familiar with this site of yours though. interesting.

we all come into this "world" blameless as children but, like creation mentioned previously, and of no fault of our own, have encoded within us historic traumas, guilt, evils. these must be unblocked, cleansed, purified that we may continue to grow, progress, evolve in universal synchronicity. the question is, how to clean? as mentioned earlier, blood is a symbol for life, and is thus the agent through which life can be sustained by clearing all past blood-related, life-degrading traumas. it's inherent value derives from the intent for which it was created: life, love for life. some turn to the blood of the so-called perfect and righteous person jesus christ as the one atonement for all creation, the claimed benefits of which have not yet been fully realized for creation. others throughout the ages and in various ways have employed blood laced with generational trauma to keep creation periodically maintained and in "balance" as we journey through the various cycles of the precession.

what, then, becomes of all children? to clear the navels during the era of the stars, children were of preference due to relatively "pure" blood, full of goodness and life, untainted by thoughts and intentions of desire, lust, greed, murder. therefore, what happens would wholly depend on what system of replenishment for creation we desire to choose. we are nearing the time of choice now. 10/28/2011 is the beginning of the "purification" promised in indigenous prophecies, keepers of the wisdom of the star nations.

i saved a copy of the IRC log. i can send you a copy of the log file if you wish.


http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1617353/pg33#27469916

for the earth to be renewed, for peace to prevail, for a new era to be born, blood must be spilt.

this is the order of things

"open" your eyes. do you understand? are you prepared to carry out the ultimate act of altruistic self-sacrifice necessary for all humanity to "transcend" this dualist existence and achieve collective "unity" and "oneness"? do not fear! "transcendence" is yours!

the countdown continues...


http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1609310/pg43#27321477

our bodies have declined exponentially, especially so over last century. we no longer resonate with the "source" attributed to [for one] food, air, water modification. presided over by several "interest groups" up to [and for] this single point. gradual preparation/modification of creation [earth and body] over time for mass consciousness re-engineering and "reality" reconstruction.

the "day of purification" spoken of in prophecy of indigenous, keepers of the wisdom of the stars. we will "awaken." all "cycles" soon to synchronize, all "instructions" [earth and body] soon to execute



many forms and levels of "tampering" have been undertaken with creation, earth and body, in preparation for synchronicity next week. the result for which the "designers" have envisioned is a collective "organism" optimally submissive to the "will of the creation", that is, subject to those "instructions" that have been "encoded" throughout creation in harmony with certain consciousness-oriented "cycles." "upgrading"/"updating" is the result of the deliberate and gradual "fine-tuning" into the "organism" via moral, physical, and spiritual "tampering".

the above small-scale reality-altering experiment provides a glimpse of what can be accomplished under ideal conditions: historic, quantum-"stored" blood trauma [warfare, murder, etc] induced via hallucinogenic drugs at an ideal location and time [that is, an harmonic of the larger "cycle" completing october 28th 2011, the planetary alignments for which enhances communication allowing information to stream within the "cycles"] causing mass psychosis, apocalyptic visions, and suicide. likewise, once certain cycles are in complete "synchronicity", all as one will experience the "world wake up from history." then we face the choice.

certainly, all will be going through many sensations in this phasing-out, especially those related or belonging to bloodlines of earth "practitioners" and "specialists" [i.e. druids, shamans, healers, tohunga, etc]. this due to their special connection to creation and relationship with the "cycles".

all the help you need for the transition is "within." no site. no person. you. let love guide your way.

So flanagan1000 how did they measure this change in resonance? Matter of fact what is this resonance that they claim has changed?

Reminds me of this quote that appeared recently on my FB wall. "Even though it appears on the internet, keep in mind that it my not be true." Abe Lincoln

I have memories of a Saturday Night Live bit from nearly 30 years ago where a pumpkin was being carved and blood came running out. I wonder if it cleared anyone's trauma.

You have presented no evidence to look at, chatbot.

Anyone remember the Dan Akroyd as Julia Childs skit? 20+ years later and it still kicks over my gigglebox.

Here, I am judged on what I am presenting as fact and evidence, not my religion. I also don't make the mistake of presenting my religion as fact to others.

Part of being a skeptic is to evaluate the argument/point posited, not the individual.

Perhaps if you were actually presenting some sort of point with your Google bombing, your links would be taken seriously. It is time for you to do your homework. I will not do it for you.

Tell us what it is that you think is going on and what evidence you see for it.

The best tools to carve pumpkins are hacksaw blades (I wrap duct tape on one end for a handle) and specific use pumpkin-carving knives. High tooth-per-inch count is good, sharpness is a non-factor. Draw the pattern using a sharpie and undercut the design. Work out to the final design pattern.

I cut a low hole in the side in order to light the candle. Use one of those long lighters for the candle.

On the SNL skit: I still get the willies from the Julia child blood-pouring skit.

Last year I took a cheap, small LED flashlight, stuck the business end in some loosely-wadded tissue paper for a diffuser and it worked great. Lit the whole pumpkin well and there was zero risk of fire or burns.

I've been considering something on the order of that, but I am making permanent low-voltage xmas lights (that can be hidden behind a snap-on moulding for the other 11 months) which takes some precedence in terms of simplifying my life.

Here's a couple of mine. I used wood carving tools and one of those pumpkin carving saws that they sell everywhere.
