Well one expects to see skeletons, etc. during Halloween (formerly only Oct. 31st, but it now lasts the entire month of October), although there are also iconoclasts that just love skeletons.
This cheerful skeleton sits out on the front porch as if to watch the world go by (if only it had eyes). Before television this was allegedly something that people did (I don’t know this personally, it’s just a rumor).
This stern skeleton is encouraging one to get something done to one’s car. I’m not sure what that thing is, but I feel a strong urge to obey.
This skeleton can be found in a rather trendy restaurant/bar. The place is crowded with ephemera and smug young persons. It was once a lovely place to have a leisurely lunch, but now it is infested with hipsters and tourists. Perhaps it is there to remind people of their ultimate fate, or it may be merely decorative.
Skeletons seem to be nosey, like this local, peering onto the porch of a neighbor. It’s ever vigilant to guard against the possible doorbell ringer. In our time, the skeleton is there to prevent whatever neighbors might call. And it’s protection against evangelists, politicians and random solar/window salespersons, so well done Mr. Bones.
