It's just that Texas is one of the last places I'd look for good pizza.

This guy is carrying a sign that is mildly NSFW.

The Savior. In Radishes. This is from Noche de Rabanos, a Oaxacan tradition in which, on Chrismas Eve, the various barrios and villages in the area create these very strange and wonderful Christmas scenes in radishes and marigolds, among other materials.

Holy cow, danf...Night of the Radishes is completely awesome. That's a FPP if there ever was one - there are a lot of great links like this with more photos. If you don't want to work up a post, can I have dibs? But if you do, I totally encourage a nice December post on this. It's so neato.

There's no end to the odd things humans do.

Miko, here is my set, from several Christmases down there.

Yeah it's pretty neat but it got in the NY Times and now it's over crowded, but still fun. Posadas are also really special to go to.

I saw this on my bike ride this morning. Apparently Miss Gonzalez turned 40 today, and the people that love her felt compelled to put a life-sized piñata in her front yard to celebrate the event.

I have no idea who Miss Gonzalez is.

The local recycling center (which is not monitored) makes for some interesting leftbehinds:

Oh, man. Someone tell Guy that a life-sized Cinderella pinata is precisely what I want for my 40th birthday.

This is a REALLY fun Pho-Fri thread.

jamaro, dude, that last pic is ten kinds of awesome.

Hee, thanks. I warned him he should stop eating at Jack in the Box.

Jamaro, your first pic reminded me of my gar mouth just above. And seconding BP on the 2nd photo.

posted by flapjax at midnite 14 November | 00:58

FAM: that gar mouth rocks and I love that it's mounted like a trophy. I'd sure like one of those for my mantel.

My first pic is the mouth of a Nepenthes hybrid (carnivorous tropical pitcher plant), I'd have to check my greenhouse notes for which one, it's just a baby and the adult form will be more...toothy.
