At your regular checkup, your doctor tells you that you have two weeks to live. On the way home from the office, you meet a powerful magician who says he can cure you but the process involves turning you magically for the next 2 years into either a scarecrow or a snowman (or, of course, snowwoman).
As a scarecrow you would be a mannequin filled with straw and you would have to wear baggy clothes and a straw hat. Your face would be crude stitchwork. You would be able to walk around, read, etc. If you were injured, you would be able to stuff yourself with more straw.
As a snowman you would be made out of three large snowballs. You would not lose mass from melting, although when it was warm out you would leave water behind you. You could have either a button or a carrot for a nose. You would be able to smoke a corncob pop with no health concerns. Your eyes would be made from coal and you could have either sticks for hands or big snow arms. Even though you had no legs you would be able to move around, go up and down stairs, drive a car, etc.
After the two years you will be totally cured. Which would you opt to be turned into? Why? How would you spend your time?

I was secretly hoping (from the title of the pic) that it was going to show Obama eating with single mothers in the Mission yesterday.
But its even cooler.
