I took Clive home and placed him on my back porch. Every morning I'd check on him; on particularly bad days, I'd take a picture. It was fascinating to watch Clive's day-by-day decaying process, bringing back boyhood memories of Magic Rocks and Sea Monkeys.

This picture shows the jack-o-lantern after about two weeks. I believe that it is truly a masterpiece, reminiscent of Dali or Picasso. And yes, that is mold growing in his eyes.
