You've got my gears turning. . .

How about a haunted house kind of theme? It's already shaped like a house. The open hatch is a ready made porch.

I think its an appropriate topic as long as you warn everybody by identifying your posts with a suitable subject line.

 give me a nod and sanction this disguise

 off until October 4th seriously sandbagging this tong in
 cheek project. :)
 
 Just saying
 
 Thanks for the consideration,
 Tony
