Last Thursday, I ordered some giant pumpkin seeds and a copy of How-to-Grow World Class Giant Pumpkins II: Sequel to the Classic Book on Growing Giant Pumpkins from Ray and Mary Waterman at P&P Seed Co. in Collins, NY. I used the internet to confirm that Ray and Mary provide only the finest in ridiculously humongous pumpkin seeds.
I am going to use those seeds to grow a ridiculously humongous pumpkin in my backyard. I am going to use this blog to document the experience and share it with my friends and loved ones scattered around the nation and the globe.
If you are reading this, you are my friend and/or I love you.
This is going to be the greatest summer ever.

Who are you and how did you already find this?
Maybe, but I'm also thinking about making some sort of spooky nativity scene in which the pumpkin is the stable. Either way, I want to find somebody with a large truck who is willing to crash it into the ridiculously humongous pumpkin on November 1st.
bert, this is your girlfriend...now I don't want to sound unsupportive or not totally enthusiastic about this ridiculously humongous pumpkin venture...but what are we going to do when our landlord spies this pumpkin in its infancy...say 300 pounds? A story about a pumpkin seed truck overturning down the street perhaps???
also I have been thinking. we should use the innards of the pumpkin to feed starving children in southeast asia
The first comment was me, your buddy Matt. Unfortunately, I have yet to figure out how to use blogs and then couldn't figure out how to delete my comment. So I gave up and went back to work. I'll explain what I was going to say to you next time we talk as I don't think the internet can communicate the levity of my tip. I agree with Jenny on the feeding southeast asian kids with the insides. And housing a family whose house was katrina'd in the remaining shell.
This is the other Matt. Good luck to you.
