Stan Munro of North Syracuse has my vote - so far - for the most unusual Halloween lawn ornament. I'm not sure how he did it, but he transformed his yard at 107Sandra Drive into the crash site that put Roswell, N.M. on the map.

A fog machine leaks smoke from the flying saucer's cracked dome every 20 seconds or so, according to Munro's friend, Sue Thomas, who submitted the photo. I hope to get more information on the hows and whys of this project, and will to post them here. Unless, of course, the cigarette-smoking man tries to stop me. (If you're not an old "X-Files" fan, just ignore that last part. Hey, the truth is out there.)

Some of you may remember Stan. He's that incredibly patient guy who built a city out of toothpicks. It was on display at the MOST, and the New York State Fair, and was recently sold to an owner of the Ripley's Believe it or Not chain of museums.
