It started with my roommate taking him one night, and then we brought him back a week later, with his name on his forehead. Then, he was replaced by a snowman, then he got lei'd, and then...we thought he could use some culture...so we took him to Montreal with us. My friend was getting her PQ ID renewed, and I was in the bathroom with him, and he toppled into the sink. :(

His hat will never be the same, and we are sorry...but he had a great time, and we brought him back with a photo montage of the great times we shared. We (because this has really become a community thing...my friend would love to take him on her cruise next month...) were just trying to bring a little fun into his life—and yours, too.

I guess you've taken Jerome into safekeeping for now, but just know our gnome, Paco, is equally awesome, as shabby as he may be. And you will always get Jerome back—safe(r) and sound! —The Metro Gnomers
