Wrapped cube prank, originally uploaded by scpetrel.
200 feet of wrapping paper – about $12.
Wrapping a coworker’s entire cube in that paper and putting the contents of his desk under the Christmas tree – priceless.
The rest of the photos are here.

Our Christmas parade in downtown Charleston is one of the most random collection of people and things I have the pleasure to witness all year, and this year was no exception. I was holding out hope for cops on Segways all decorated for the holiday, but maybe next year.
KING TUT WITH BUBBLES!
We really hoped that the driver of this eighteen-wheeler was a trainER, not a trainEE, considering the rather sharp left turns that are necessary to get the truck on the parade route.
Basset hounds!
… and a tree made out of chain link.

Chopper and I went to the annual exhibit of crèches at Mepkin Abbey for the first time today and were amazed at what we found. The exhibit, which sadly was over today, was fantastic. The variety and quality of the crèches on display were startling.
I shot many photos with my 50mm lens (which I continue to adore) which are all available for your viewing pleasure in my Flickr photostream.
Our favorites:
This one is cut from a duck’s egg by a Vietnamese woman selling crafts on the side of the road. I’ve blown out eggshells to dye them for Easter before and I am just stunned at how delicate this is. The lines are very clean.
This more abstract wooden piece was Chopper’s favorite.
We couldn’t figure out what kind of dark stone would be readily available in fairly large pieces and were extremely surprised to find out the figures are carved in coal. The photo doesn’t quite do justice to how luminous the surface is – almost more like metal than stone.
And finally … a wise man who has a startling resemblance to comedian Jeff Dunham’s puppet José Jalapeño on a Stick.
