Out of My Gourd - The Perfect Pout


Pouty McPlumperson's bottom lip is on display 24-7.  He adamantly refuses to wear dentures.  Instead, the stubborn pumpkin enjoys gumming saltwater taffy while sharing old-timey stories of growing up in the Ozarks, listening to dueling banjos and reminiscing of days long past when he still had a full set of chompers.  
The ornery coot is available through the pumpkin relocation program (dentures included).  Full disclosure, that is not the trill wind you hear blowing through the trees... he speaks with a pronounced whistle.  Also note, due to a narrowed airway, Pouty requires a CPAP machine for sleeping.  If considering adoption, please be prepared for a shrill *whistle---hum---whistle---hum* to gently lull you to sleep at night.  Some say the sound is more soothing than nails down a chalkboard or the yowl of a cat in heat. 

Out of My Gourd - Warted Bottle Neck

Meet grumbling Gourdon, the newest addition to the Out of My Gourd Series.  As you can see, he is covered in warts.  Sadly there is not a "softer side" to this old coot... his grouchy attitude perfectly matches the tough, weathered gourd façade.  Constantly shouting random phrases and insults at passersby, the patient farmer was finally forced to relocate Gourdon to the hay barn aka solitary confinement.  Curious about the insults???  The gruff critiques usually focus on visitors' lack of warts and not enough bump in the trunk.

Out of My Gourd - Cyclops

Expanding the Out of My Gourd Series. 
Meet Cyclops, the monstrous creation of a lazy pumpkin carver unable to muster enough effort for 2 eye holes.  The lack of depth perception is a major issue.  The constant bumping into things and rolling into the irrigation ditch has earned him a clumsy reputation around the pumpkin patch.
