On 5/13/2008 I blogged about my new "little friend"Well today he went into surgery for his back, After looking at him I decided my best option for fixing him was to rewire him from his "neither region" to his head. I cut a long piece of copper wire we had laying around and ran them up through the holes in his spine, the lower vertabrae were numbered before I removed the old wires so they went back in the same order but the upper ones were just removed one at a time and put on the new wires has needed, once I reached the skull I pulled everything tight and wrapped the wire around itself to holdand then out the top of the skull to make a new hanger for himhttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18291_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18292_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18293_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18294_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18295_view.jpgAfter I finished with my little friend I dug out the superglue and a pumpkin from my halloween tree that had broken last year when I was removing the branches from the treeI can remember if the branch slipped and hit the pumpkin or the pumpkin just hit the ground to hard but it ended up without a facehttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18296_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18297_view.jpgI'd collected all the pieces so it was just a matter of fitting them all back together and glueing them with the superglue http://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18298_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18299_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18300_view.jpghttp://hauntspace.com/file/pic/gallery/18301_view.jpgSo far the superglue seems to be working fine and not haveing a bad "reaction" to the foam in the pumpkin so it looks like the paitent will live though his days of hanging around in a tree are over and I'll have to replace him with one of the pumpkins that sits on the deck railingJoel
