Guess what this is

[EscapeGirl]

You're thinking along the right lines.

Well the handyman just pulled up so its time to get on the roof. Check back in to see if anyone found it....LATER!

[EscapeGirl]

Bye RBS! Don't fall off the roof!

[old biker]

its an inkfish mushroom or cutlle-fish mushroom

[EscapeGirl]

You're right about it being in the fungi family...however neither of those are correct.

But it does emit a foul odor.

[old biker]

i know ,odor of corpses ,but in flemish there called inktvis-zwam
gonna try babelfish

clathrus archeri or anthurus archeri ? an australian mushroom

[EscapeGirl]

You are very close, old biker. I will take either its scientific name, or any of it's common names. It is widespread in Australia, but has a different name(s) than those you have mentioned.

When googling, keep in mind it looks a bit like a sea anenome.

I have work issues. Go ahead and post again. (I have a really good one but I'm gonna wait til a lot of people are there to guess, plus it'll probably need hints )

Wow. A day and still no posts.
What's this the logo for?:

[EscapeGirl]

[old biker]

[RBS]

It's not the overstock.com logo (close but no cigar). I wonder if it's a University? Jones where are you?
