I was sitting here and had a thought of how I am going to paint my pumpkins.
My plan is to paint the Batman logo on them. I have looked and can't find where anyone else has done it but it will fit, since my nickname has been Batman for years. I am going to paint them with the same logo as my tattoo. I may take it one step further and make the axle look like the Batman utility belt lol. I will update with pics along the way.

Huh. Well.. This seems like it could be chat.. But, if you asked me, which you didn't, I'd say ricer. But, site unseen its hard to make that evaluation. Plus, it's not gonna be flashy (I hope) so yeah. Do it up. What paint you gonna use?

I was going to paint the diff covers florescent orange, but I was afraid that someone would report a fire. So everything is now black POR, because a hot chick told me that's what she liked.

Gotta go with the odds.
