My friend Anna told me about the secret Cadaver Society at Washington & Lee University. In her words, "They spray paint skulls all over campus - - and we allow it because they also contribute a ton of money anonymously to different university projects. No one knows who the members are or how they are selected - - but I find skulls on kids cars, the football field, buildings, etc."

Awesome! I've been finding skulls all over my school, so I'm going to put together a picture collection at Flickr.
That "wolfy" pic looks like an evil schipperke... We've had 3... who am I kidding? All schipperkes are evil.
I can't do the stereogram one and it's really annoying me XD has anyone got any tips on how to see it?
Wow! All this great stuff.
Ryan is a skull genius, obviously he's related to you!
The "card by L&D Dillon" is also the cover art for the edition I own of Ray Bradbury's novel The Halloween Tree, which I read every Halloween!
All very cool.. I gotta get one of those knit hats!
