Is it technically recycling?

So, last weekend we replaced the toilet in the guest bathroom. By "we," naturally I mean "John," and let me say that that little sentence doesn't nearly convey the sheer horror that was involved in the process. It's taken me a week just to be able to talk about it. Let's just say that the original toilet wasn't installed correctly, yadda yadda yadda, and a job that should have taken a couple hours took about ten hours and three trips to two different home stores. Yay capitalism. In any case, this brings me to my main point here (yes, there is one). We now have our old toilet and nothing to do with it. Naturally, living in the South, I considered turning it into a festive planter. But I'm not really ready to go that route yet. John suggested that we recycle it, which I think is a great idea. In theory. In practice, I'm thinking that we're missing a tremendous opportunity here. Halloween is coming up, after all. Is it technically recycling if we put candy in the bowl of the toilet and leave it in the yard for daring kids to dangle their greedy hands into? (Yes, it's clean, don't worry. Besides, that was John's idea.) What if we buy one of those disembodied forearms and super glue it inside the bowl, so that just the hand is sticking out? (My idea.) What if we can get the hand to wave at passersby? What if the hand were holding a sign that said, "Sorry! Out of candy!"? I think that in order to truly recycle, we have to think outside the box. Or, inside the toilet, as it were.
