 I knew we had pink bunny ears somewhere from one of past Halloween parties, so the idea came to use them to recreate the Energizer bunny with a real battery instead of a drum in a forced perspective setup.


Since there was a question how I built such a huge battery, here is a photo of my setup

Jandals??? I had to google it:
"In 1957 a man called Morris Yock of Onehunga in Auckland, North Island of New Zealand, produced a version of the Japanese sandal in his garage, proudly named it 'The Jandal', and trademarked it."

In Australia they are still thongs for whatever reason :)

Is it customary in the US to wear thongs (probably an Australian word for whatever you call it) over socks? Or is it a fashion statement? ;)

Congrats on the Red, very clearly Larry is on your toes :)

Margaret, they are called flip-flops in the US, thongs are something entirely different ;). No, it's not customary, but that's how my prototype Energizer bunny wears them, so I had to follow, even though it wasn't easy or comfortable. Especially because they are my wife's flip-flops, turned out I didn't have my own.

That is quite amazing how you achieved the size of the battery so perfectly fitting on your lap. It was a question I was going to ask but I knew someone else would, congratulations. You had some pretty tough competition with Larry but you surely deserved the red .

Oh man Lev, you are brave, very brave. Or silly, who knows, but what a fun pic.

By the way, did you just disort your foot? it looks rather swollen, or is it meant to be that way?
