Peter, Peter pumpkin eater
Had a wife but couldn't keep her.

Ok, so why couldn't he keep her?

Put her in a pumpkin shell
There he kept her very well.

Does this mean that Peter was a cannibal? Since he was a pumpkin eater
and he put his wife in a pumpkin shell didn't he have to get into the
same pumpkin shell? Do you think his wife was a pumpkin eater, too? Do
you think if they had kids that they became pumpkin eaters, too? What do
you think his wife thought of being put into a pumpkin shell? What do
you think the neighbors thought of Peter after he had put wife into a
pumpkin shell?

I think that what the neighbor’s thought is of utmost importance. But
if Peter’s skin was as thick as a
pumpkin’s he probably didn’t care what the neighbors thought. This
leads me to believe that he had little faith in Mr. Rogers. Therefore
he was a sinner of the most demented kind. It matters not that he was a
vegetarian because Captain Kangaroo’s pouch will only hold so many
gourds anyway.

"....Ultimately, pumpkinism failed as a mainstream religion when it
became apparent to even the most loyal adherents that there was simply
no effective way a pumpkin could be crucified and subsequently
resurrected...."

Dr. Blaine Torlinder, "Pumpkinism: The Orange Messiah," p. 287

Peter must have been doomed from the start then.

But didn't Linus try to ressurect the Great Pumpkin? Do you think that
Charles Schultz was a pumpkin eater but just kept it to himself?

Do you think that Thanksgiving with all the pumpkin pie has something to
do with the Orange Messiah?

The Pumpkin Festival (a.k.a. Pumpkin Fest) is a yearly celebration held
in Keene, New Hampshire, USA at Halloween. Each year, Keene residents
and other citizens from around the area attempt to amass the largest
number of lit jack-o'-lanterns in one place, trying to meet or beat the
world record (which they held for many years).

The Pumpkin Fest previously held the record (as recognized by the
Guinness World Records) of 28,952 [1] set at this celebration on October
25, 2003, but this was broken when Boston, Massachusetts collected
30,128 on October 21, 2006. [2] The organizers attempt yearly to beat
this record by encouraging businesses and individuals to create and
donate jack-o'-lanterns which are displayed on many enormous banks of
shelves and all available surfaces around the center of town.

The festivities also include fireworks, music, and food, and draw in
people from all over New Hampshire and adjoining states.

Almost immediately after the pumpkin festival is over, the
jack-o-lanterns are hauled away by volunteer work crews and given to pig
farmers.

Over 80,000 people attend this event in Keene which has a population of
nearly 23,000. People do not come from just the surrounding states, but
all over the country and sometimes all over the world.

The 2006 festival was held on October 21st and boasted over 24,000 lit
pumpkins.
