| Shredder Joined: Nov 2008 From: Myrtle Creek, OR I Ride: A big silver one | Well shoot, I sort of had in mind a larger Nativity, like one in front of someone's house. Not off of a mantel or table. Oh well, that was what I wrote. So, a blue office? Hmmmm, the one on the range isn't there yet. If this thread goes as long as Kirk and Cindy's then all we have to do is wait for the TO one to show up. |

   Joined: Mar 2008 From: Roseburg, OR I Ride: 98 Honda FireStorm | LOL! Exactly. You have to specify, Gwen. You have to use cheater-proof language, or else this sort of thing happens.  Like the yard gnome one, where I went to Ross and bought a little miniature one, took the pic on my bike, then returned the gnome. |

My picture isn't cheating. That's what makes this version of phototag so much fun. With the other version, you have to find the exact spot in the picture to get it right. There is only one correct answer to the challenge. With this version, you're free to come up with your own solution. As long as it meets the requirements specified, it's good (I know because a certain garden gnome told me so). Nothing was mentioned about what size the Nativity scene had to be, or where it had to be in relation to the bike. All Gwen said was "your bike with a Nativity scene", which is exactly what my picture shows. However, she did say "get it quick." I had it posted in 55 minutes. I believe that qualifies as 'quick'. As you can see, my picture meets all the requirements she specified. I did not cheat.  | |

You could have done a whole book of the adventures of the yard gnome. That's what my daughter and I did when we went to Florida last winter. We made a whole book of pics of a stuffed husky that we called Little Eddy, after my brother's real Malamute. They couldn't go as we had all planned, so we decided to do something to make it seem like they were a part of the trip. Anyway, it took hours, lot's of photo paper, several ink cartridges and at least one roll of the electronic labeler tape. In the end, we had 250 pics of Little Eddy's Adventures in Florida. The folks in the different parks and attractions were great and many posed with Eddy without a lot of arm bending. My four year old niece still thinks that is the bestest book ever! So, you missed out on an opportunity. I can't believe you would return it after it was essentially used. geesh. | |

It can be very predictable, or someone with a little creativity can surprise you and do something totally unexpected. The results can be pretty funny.  |

While we're on the subject, I think this forum needs a mascot. I nominate Gizmo, the Garden Gnome. | |

John's pic of Wimbledon with his Magna in the middle of the match was very creative. So, is the search on for a new garden gnome since Paul returned his for a refund? How about a flamingo? That might be a touch more portable on a bike. | |

None of my posts are meant to be taken seriously. Everything I post is in jest and should be taken with a grain of salt (or a shot of whiskey, whichever is easier). | |

I guess someone should buy a new one. I'll do it, if we make it the forum mascot and put a picture of it at the top of every page. | |

| Superbiker | I'm thinking a garden gnome might be a pain to transport without taking my seat cowl off... does it have to be something not soft and fluffy?? Though we have had this discussion before... |
