this pumpkin sowed itself & growed itself, spreading vines and tendrils everywhere until it looked like the triffids had invaded (eerily reminiscent of that famous "dr who" episode where an organic creature nearly eats london). i took no part in proceedings. last month it delivered itself of a 10 kilogram junior pumpkin. that's me holding the newborn. there are two others still in gestation. anyone care to adopt?

at least you now have a 10kg weight to lift up and down. think of it as mother nature's medicine ball.

girl with henna in her hair: does that include artie ziff and his "busy hands"?
gx. would you believe the entire post was just an excuse to use the word "parthenogenesis"?
I would use any lame excuse I could to use the word "parthogenesis"....
As for the pumpkin - I'll take one - if you are going to personally deliver.
Woof!
if there's one drawback with everyday conversation it's the limited (very limited) opportunities it permits to make parthenogenetic remarks. and all the footer talk, of course.

Yes, yes it does. Where's the helicopter?
