Maybe that's how the travelocity gnome gets such great deals on vacations...

This conversation is HILARIOUS.

I was completely clueless about the swinger thing. When I think of garden gnomes, I think of the French comedy "Amelie." Haven't seen it? Watch it - it's a great movie that will give you, among other things, an appreciation of garden gnomes.

I've never heard that about the gnomes.

I had heard about the flamingos though. Years ago, I placed them in my aunt's yard on her birthday, just because I thought it was funny. She ripped them up because she said it meant she was a lesbian---because she'd seen them in a lesbian couple's yard!!!

I've also heard in Naval towns that a Tide box in the window symbolizes that the husband is at sea...you know "the tide's out".

Gives a whole new meaning to that Gnomeo and Juliet movie from Disney.
