i once liberated one from a neighbour... Took it across canada... For 3 weeks... Took pictures of it everywhere.

Up mountains , With skies, Snowboarding, Eating at Baniff spings motel. Etc...

3 rolls of film.

When I was done I returned the gnome with the pictures...

Quite Funny.

That gnome went away next year for 2 weeks down east...

And then the following year to the states...

Then they moved....

My wife went through a period where she was under the influence of the evil garden gnomes.
But in the end I was able to remove the curse of the gnomes with the help of several enchanted
gnome killing blades. Now if I could only get the cats to go looking for the gnomes..............

You think garden gnomes are bad? There are people who put geeze statues (garden geeze?

) in their front lawn and dress them up. They change the clothes when a certain event arrives like 4th of july, christmas and so on.
These people *really* need help

If never heard of Elf Bowling. I did hear about dwarf throwing however

Elf Bowling - On Christmas Eve, the elves go on strike for shorter working hours and longer smoke breaks. Santa's solution - knock them out of the way with his bowling ball. Crude, but hilarious at times.

Is there anyone who will read this thread who will be willing to defend lawn or garden statuary?

I don't think to highly of any of it. Lawn gnome, pLastic flamingo, Mary with Small Animals, it's all the same and it's none of it good for my property value.

Friend of mine had a neighbor lady who would talk to her gnomes. She was nuts and would try to get my friend evicted for just anything like accidentally slamming the door loud or disapproval of the ladies he'd bring home. So when he had enough he kidnapped the garden gnomes and sent pieces of one of them back with warning that she better get along better with her neighbors and quit *****ing over every little thing, or else she wouldn't see the other ones ALIVE again. She still *****ed but didn't make her complaints official with the landlord and everything's fine except the one sacrificed Gnome.

I heard recently (can't remember the source) that there are 10 times as many pLastic lawn flamingos as there are real flamingos in the US....not in my neighborhood!!!

Awhile back here in my hometown this group of people, I think it was some church group would take 10 pLastic pink flamingos and randomly put them in peoples yards. So at any given time someone would have 10 flamingos in their yard when they didn't even want them. It was the stupidest thing I have ever seen done.

I know some people even went out and threw the flamingos away. But I can't say I blame them.

Thankfully we didn't get hit due to living 5 miles out of town.
