WHAT IS A GIANT SQUID the giant squid is a squid that is very large and it lives in the ocean. there are a lot of them, and they can eat anything and they can go a long time without eating and they can survive in any temperature and basically they are awesome.

i made three life size giant squid stuffed animals in 2005 for an installation at the famous art space the dirt palace in providence RI. here is the webiste for that project. i did this after or maybe during my 365 days of stuffed animals project, but anyway, separate from that. if you’ve ever been to the junk shoppe and looked up, you would see one of these squids ready to descend on you and eat your entire face, or scrape the skin off your arms by accident, or do something horrible with a completely vacant expression. we are raffling off one of the squids, and selling raffle tickets over the internet. i’m not going to tell you how to live your life, but i think it would be in everyone’s best interest if you bought a few tickets, really as much as you can afford, so that you have the best likelihood of winning the raffle, and then you can wrestle with one of these ungainly fellows whenever the mood for obliteration strikes.

HOW DO I WIN THE SQUID IN A RAFFLE the drawing will be held at the store on january 19th, but you don’t have to be present to win– you will be notified by email. also you don’t have to come to worcester to get it- we can ship it to you (but it will arrive unstuffed (but you can stuff it with anything– an air mattress, some foam scraps, even a living person (but not me– i’ve paid my dues))). tickets are $5 for 6, or $10 for 14.
here is a picture of me with it, albeit in an overstuffed state, and remember that i’m very tall– well outside of medical and societal norms:

here is some nice picture for your computer wallpaper background.

OK! here’s the tickets again, and remember this is to support HBML junk shoppe, the best store to ever exist, way better than the shop in zelda:

RAFFLE OVER!

please allow yourself to admit to yourself that your life would be provably awesomer if you had this epic piece of wrestle-withable soft sculpture. THANK YOU
