Squirrel!

I have posted several times about my brother Steve, the original hillbilly.  He's very "special" and we love him dearly.  Steve wears a top hat at all times.  He has his everyday tophat which is black, and his good gray one for special occasions, such as performing a wedding.

Well, I think I've found the perfect gift for him.  I've never seen anything like it and I know for a fact that he doesn't have one.  It's a real taxidermy squirrel wearing a top hat and carrying a gun.

Can you freakin' believe it?  It's listed on ebay and closes on Sunday.  You can see the listing here.

They could be twins!




Oh, and Kate, you missed it by a few days or you could have had this one for Anna.  We all know how she loves horses...



I'd like to have this one for our new home.  I'd find a tiny toilet and put him on it.  Reminds me of Lucy and kind of brings a tear to my eye...

    What I'd like to know is WHY you were searching for stuffed squirrels on ebay. You're just as "special" as he is, you know that right?

    I know! Why am I not "classy" and "dignified" like our mother? Instead, I end up with the mouth of a sailor and personality of a tazmanian devil going through menopause.

    Yep. You just described our brother to a T. And you too.

    Seriously, this made me laugh so hard. If I get fired for laughing out loud, it's your fault.

    Jodi , you ain't got no couth 0R class. unlike me, who is damned dignified ALL the time.

    I think Steve would like the squirrel look alike. Or, he may not notice the commonality.

    And, yes, Lucy could have sat on a toilet reading if you had let her.----oh, that wasn't what you meant, was it?
