What is the silliest thing you have in your home or yard?

I have a potato clock by my front door entrance. The silly part is it is not a real potato clock it is a small battery  powered clock that just looks like it is powered by a potato. If guests make a comment about my potato clock I will tell them things like how I became interested in potato power back in grade 3 and I am know working  on a potato charger that can charge battery powered yard tools. Cheers!

    My niece gave me it for Christmas.  (she has the same warped sense of humor that I do.)

    A pair of concrete garden trolls, one picking his nose and the other scratching his a$$. I think m2c makes them.

    I tried to download that from Google Images, but it wouldn't.

    Right click on the photo, choose to save image to your desktop, give it a name and save.

    Repeat post I used with Shuhak:

    I looked closer, was more tired last night than I am now, this is funnier than I thought.

    In a presidential election in my country I had a yard sign:


    President Atticus Finch
    Vice-President Edith Bunker


    (my two favorite fictional characters and in reality I think both of them as a team would be good)

    I have no idea why my completely separate answer is stuck in the middle of a conversation with Stu Spelling Bee, Element 99 and Spunky Senior. 
    I posted it as a separate answer.

    I used to have an enormous date palm in my yard. Way too tall to harvest the fruit (more than 20 feet to the bottom of the crown), I didn't own a ladder that long. Bats used to eat the dates then poop on my car.

    A potato clock?  Sounds wonderfully silly. I've never seen one.

    Thought I would give a link to a site that tells you how to make a potato powered clock. Cheers!

    I know...I do it all of the time. Some images won't download. Quite annoying. Why are they there?
