You are SO twisted I love it!

(I bet the youngsters don't even know what naughahyde is!)

I grew up in Naugatuck, Connecticut....a "quaint" agricultural community (NOT!) known for its vast heards of Naugas roaming the countryside!

Perhaps you know of our other claim to fame (besides the big ol' stinky Uniroyal plant, long gone)...Mrs. Naugatuck, the eccentric character from the T.V. show Maude for all you true oldsters!

Lighting a candle for the ex-frog....

FBI? I think we've found Jimmie Hoffa

Ooh, I love owl pellets! My HS BF and I used to go out in the woods and collect them and get out the little bones. I had a tiny skull collection...

I was watching that cable show, Dirtiest Jobs or whatever it is, and one of the things was about a guy who collected owl pellets and packaged them to sell to school science classes.

It annoyed me that the host kept calling it owl vomit.

This reminds me of the time when I was out and a Squirrel decided to jump through my wheel. I heard a thunk, and the bike lurched, followed by what I took to squirrel cursing. I did Have Blood on the spokes when I got home (yes, they are bladed spokes.)

Now that sounds like a Hallowe'en movie... Blood on the Spokes... ooooweeeeeee!!!

(back when I was a wildlife major, I had to stuff and mount critters with their little skulls beside them.. don't ask me what the grossest sounds were... my sister managed to get me some already-deceased lab rats...)

We all know that Jimmie Hoffa is buried under the 50 yd line in the Bears stadium

Teamsters. Bah!

Um... They wouldn't happen to have a good amt of blue on the stems, would they?
...just asking.
...no, I don't want any.

Ok Kit call me slow but I just now read your post and I'm innocently (yehright) wondering why you would ask about the colors of the "shrooms??

Geonz - taxadermy?? I would imagine that would be a very depressing job. Moreso for the animals but since they were dead.....
