The annual mad scientist Halloween party is over and you stagger back to your laboratory missing your pants and smelling of stale beer. But as you are tidying up, you notice that something has grown in a Petri dish while you were away. You peer through the microscope... but what do you see?

You are allowed to rotate or flip the shape. There is no color limit. You've got two weeks to show us what you found in your lab. Of course there will be trophies. :cheesy:
You discover a most well-mannered, bemonocled SPORE relaxing in its comfy mould-chair. Look, it's waving! It LIKES you!

You are its DADDY!

(Let's call it NORAB!) (laugh)
You discover an amoeba endeavoring to consume and assimilate all the dreaded Cow Pox viruses it encounters:

Mo-teee-waaaay-shuun! (laugh)
You discover a grinning, veiny alien life form squirming around in grey ooze...and it is now looking back at you through the microscope lens.

as always it was too late when mark discovered the real meaning to 'don't eat what you breed' when you work in a lab... but it looked so delicious at first!
Another entry! Nice! :grin:
I thought I'd throw one together while winding down this evening... :-D
Looking into the Petri dish I say, "Finally! [burp] My cloning technique is perfected! Now, all I need is a body, and I can resurrect the late Maestro and his orchestral genius."

I'm fine with it. Really I would think that voters are going to take into account that it looks cool either way. This voter does anyway 8-)
Rotate away, Baron. :smiley:
