Here's last Wednesday's picture:

This is the shot it was cropped from:

Finn was the first to get this right...she said: "Eeet looks like zee back of an electric toothsbrush...Don't ask me why I'm typing like that; I haven't a clue! I'd say it was an Oral B."; Carl: "Looks to me to be a ghost, mashed flat by a garbage truck. He evidently saw it coming as he looks both sad and horrified.", Rhea: "Casper the Ghost", Laura: "kind of looks like the expression on my face every morning when I walk into my office...only Im a little more green..." and Heather: "Looks like those japanese ghost things - the ones that are the ball with the face written on them!" amused me most!

So this week...

what is it?

looks like a dryer hose or a vacuum hose!!!

OR....a giant blue slinky!

It looks like one of those bendable lamps, maybe?

It's a leaf stuck in some sort of vent

It looks like the bendy "stem" to a desk lamp with an autumn leaf trapped behind/under it.

A plastic bendy downspout with one red leaf?

Lucky you if you only had one leaf- I still have loads, but at least they are covered by snow now. ;-)

Is it a vase? If so, it's a very pretty vase. :)

I think I saw this in my grandparent's bathroom. It looks to be a vintage 1950's ribbed condom, possibly from the Rock Hudson line. My how things have improved.

It looks like a handle to me, like on a brush or something - it looks like mine. Or it could be a handle on something else too :P

It's the leg of wicker chair. Such a pretty color, better than the usual white wicker. OR it's the side view of a flip flop.

Oh crap, I haven't a clue. I never get these things. I'll guess it's a.....very well liked pleasure device, lol.

Um...one of those bendy lamps? Or perhaps a hose?

I keep getting distracted by the leaf behind it. Nice color!

Looks like a leg for the laundry basket. The leaf is fake and decorative.

I love these cropping challenges. They really make ya think.

I'm gonna get it wrong, so I may as well go big: it's a giant-sized leaf-sucking UFO.
