I built this reindeer in my front yard in hopes that I could "keep up with the neighbors," but it completely fell apart the first night I resurrected it. I stayed up all damn night working in the garage banging away with a hammer and wood nails so that it would stay sturdy, and fell asleep the other night feeling very accomplished and proud of my efforts. Hell, I even put a flood light aimed to show off my craftmanship! Well, I just walked outside, and to my horror, some assclown has chopped off its head! So there it stands... in all its glory... without a freaking head!

Hah. I'll try to post some "before" and "after" pics. Damn... I'm just trying to figure out how in the holy hell to build a new head before my parents drive down from NC tomorrow night! That's not exactly the sight I want them to drive up on...
No. It's still laying beside the headless body. Red lightbulb for the nose is busted, as are most of the antlers. I go through this crap every year. A few years back, I drove up and it was "missing." In its place was a stake in the front yard with a ransom note attatched to it. I didn't find it funny at the time, until I found out it was just some drunk AF guys who lived around the corner having fun at my expense.
i stole/borrowed a yard gnome in college. took it random places and returned it before sunup.. a week later the pictures were in the mailbox.. owners never knew it was gone...
brought it to the casino and sat at the blackjack table with us and i played 2 spots so it looked like in the picture the gone was dealt a hand.
brought it to the dance club with us and had some chicks get low with it
brought it to dennys and bought it a plate of pancakes
few other lame ones like in a store with a case of beer in front of it and money shoved in its hand and the cashier willingly took the picture reaching for the cash out of his hand
a house party and in the van drivers seat

It's a weird French movie but it totally reminds me of your gnome story. This chick takes (her dad's?) lawn gnome on adventures and sends him back the pictures. I haven't seen it in a while but it's pretty funny. I think Travelocity may have gotten their "traveling gnome" idea from that movie. You should check it out =)

Update: Friend of mine came over and we got the head back on. Two girls trying to fix it? Classic. Outcome: We just hung a sign over it's head that said "Fuck it. I'm gay."
