The POM

This Halloween, I will forego the usual pumpkin cliché in favour of a generally spooky landscape cliché.

Well, I love it, Reg! Nothing like a dead tree to commemorate the unholy day of the dead.

I also dislike Halloween. It is a demonic holiday of no value.

And yet we all participate in it. I thought it was strictly an American holiday. I had no idea everyone in the West celebrates Halloween.

Edit to add: I went as white trash as it was fitting.

I don’t participate in it. I just mind my own business and let everyone else pretend that dressing up like a demonic spirit is cool. Erika doesn’t even like going outdoors on Halloween.

It wasn’t that long ago I saw a photo of you and wife dressed as bride and groom for Halloween.

Grass after it rained.

It rained here today. For the first time in weeks. I know because it took me 90 minutes to get home.

Home long does it take in the dry?

A Christmas pesebre. These are huge all through South America. Every house has one (or more) at Navidad. They range from tiny to huge, and they’re very meaningful to Latinos.

That‘s similar here in Germany. They come in different styles, depending on the region. The Bavarians and Austrians prefer the alpine style. Recently the oriental style became very popular. I hope this link works. If it does, you can click on the right and see various types of Weihnachtskrippen which are typical in at least Bavaria and my guess is also minimum in Austria and many other parts of Germany.

no idea why people choose to put such fake cultish kitsch crap inside their homes and promote such religious nonsense, but to each their own :wink:
