I picture it placed at the top of my waterfall,
evil frogs about to pitch innocent garden gnome into the waters below. Holding fast.... (I did, however, use it as a story starter for the boy I'm tutoring this summer.) |

I think it would be great - every time you glanced at it you would
chuckle. Isn't laughter the best medicine - just think of it as preventive meds! Bonnie NJ |

Call me a party-poop, but as I frequent thrift shops on a regular basis, I have seen MANY such "cute" items on the shelves. Remember that a moment of wantonness is not worth a lifetime of regret. Now back to the sermon. :) (However, there were times when I would have gladly reversed that.) Actually it is cute as a puppy, but will you enjoy it on the 500th sighting? Chip |

Tutoree boy decided that Evil Milkduds had come to Earth
and were raiding garden lawns. If I ever had my pond on a tour I'd get it in a flash. Jan can tell you that will never happen - dogs and pond tours don't mix. And now they've taken to digging up nuts the squirrels bury in the lawns. And eat them. And have the most awful gaseous emissions at night. And DH managed to set the lawn on fire. TWICE! He gets carried away with his propane weed torch. He's like Rambo with a flamethrower. k :-) |

Perhaps not, but every time a visitor does a double-take it'll be worth it. otoh, it's not too hard to make... -- derek |

Chip Sure, when the 500th visitor sees it for the 1st time, I would enjoy it. ;-) Whimsy at it best, imo, isn't out in the open, but somewhat hidden and should take a bit of looking by the visitor to "see" it. Does that make sense? i.e. behind or beside a bush that somewhat hides it, just enough shows that the curious will go around the bush for a full view. Though I love the idea of them appearing to pitch it off the top of a waterfall, perhaps a broke one laying in the pool below. (Someone would really have to hate garden gnomes.) Now ceramic figures of politicians.... Hmmmm? ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |

Now ceramic figures of politicians.... THAT'S wonderful! You have a talent. Now I say, go for it. I have always hated ceramic donkeys pulling a cart, usually with a sleeping serape draped driver. I want to work your idea into my pond scene. Is it copyrighted? Chip |

Oooo! Political garden gnomes....
(I used to bury politicians in my front yard for Halloween.) I went looking. Could only find the current President has been memorialized in garden gnome form. Probably not enough turn around time to gnome-ize our current applicants for the job. And takes us into muddy pond waters - ponds and politics don't mix unless you want to turn that stunning fountain at the White House into a pond - full of lotus - how pretty! k :-) |

I thought she deserved some kind of award, but if they're not _really_ there ... Of course, it would be shame if you buried politicians in your yard, and the dogs dug them up again. -- derek |
