#43: Spill Bill

On Friday, October 30th, 2009, I featured Bill on this blog.

I do so again here. But Bill is in a few more pieces since that last showcase. He fell from a great height and was damaged. Concrete was not his friend.

I'll still keep what's left of him for old time's sake. It's hard to part with an old friend you've been through so much with ...

Bill went boom.

#291: Bill

This is Bill.

He's been around for years.

He comes out for a visit every Halloween. Bill is a life-size plaster skull. He has a 20+ year old coat of glow-in-the-dark paint applied to him that has long since faded into oblivion. His lower jaw is unattached ... but you can't really blame him for that. I mean, after all ..... he doesn't have anything to hold it in place, y'know?

But that's okay. I carry it around for him. I don't mind.

Bill comes with me wherever I go during Halloween. And during Día de Los Muertos, too.

The dude's a trooper. Bill never complains. Bill goes back in his box come the end of the season. Bill waits patiently for the next Halloween.

He's such a keeper .....
