CORRECTION: That is in fact John Hodgman, NOT a garden gnome.
JoCo + Chair
And if no duplicates allowed, what about bonuses? For instance Mitch has posted a picture of a non-red pen. If I then post one of a red pen, do I get zero, one, or two points??
Gotta make this as difficult and confusing as possible!
I'm going to vote no because one of the ideas here was to see lots of pictures. Multiple items in a pic means less pics. No Bonus but extra kudos. Hows that?
ETA: flashlight
I have a feeling Kerrin will post a photo of a signed thank-you note.
ETA: Aww man, ninja'd by a monkey.
Nice pic by the way, post more!
ETA: I know torches has been done very well already, so I can't get this one, but just for future reference... does a video of him talking about the object in question count?
I also found an mp3 where he mentions a lawnmower. ;-)
Angelastic I guess you know now why I was asking for random things on Twitter and Facebook?
I can't wait till someone shows up to a concert with a Gnome or a Meatgrinder.
*yawns, stretches out across seven adjacent seats, pats meat grinder lovingly*
I should put up some of my pictures, I have many of him with chairs and pens. Though I don't think they'd beat my tree and doormat in the same picture.
ETA I tried to use the img function but couldn't get it to work for me. if you go to my flickr page you will be able to see it though!
Here it is again
That does look odd.
