[HB Vic]

Hotboat.com will be holding a boating related, pumpkin carving contest. The contest will be open to all registered members of www.hotboat.com (http://www.hotboat.com). The pumpkin can be any size or shape, however, it must be carved in a boating related fashion. A boat would be my first suggestion. Anything related to the site will also be accepted.

We will be looking for the best quality and most creative pumpkin you can produce. In order to qualify, you must post three (3) photos of your pumpkin. One of which must show the hotboat.com website home page in the background. There are no categories, just three winners chosen in order of our preference. The first place winner will receive a $50 gift card and a www.hotboat.com (http://www.hotboat.com) T shirt. Second place will receive a $25 dollar gift card and a www.hotboat.com (http://www.hotboat.com) T shirt. 3rd place will win a www.hotboat.com (http://www.hotboat.com) T shirt. The contest starts tomorrow, Tuesday October 1st and ends, Wednesday October 30th at 8pm. The date and time your photos are posted will determine if you are eligible per the contest dates.

I'll be getting my pumpkins on October 19th. If anybody wants to have a great time with really great cheap pumpkins, join us at Cal Poly Pomona's pumpkin festival. Great venue for pictures with your little ones:

Since I have the artistic ability of a concrete block, I'll sit this one out :popcorn:

Folding before the flop? Sometimes it's not the cards you have but knowing what the other guy doesn't.

I'm sure you could dremel the piss out of a pumpkin just fine. Use the force!

I have an idea for an evil cleaver.

Every pumpkin is $5.00 no matter the size. Seems to get busier every year.
