Most taxidermed animals look messed up...trying to make it look alive when it is obviously dead is sort of like wadding a bunch of newspapers inside a roadkill and propping it up with a stick... reminds me of movies like "Psycho" "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things" and "Pet Semetary"
Animal zombies...what makes taxidermed things extra creepy is when they are also not only eerie, but funny in a twisted way...like that cat and baby goose...or those stuffed frogs playing in a band or playing cards around a table...check out the stuffed frog museum at: http://www.museedesgrenouilles.ch/html/home/index.htm

When I am stressed, I tend to be an emotional eater. I suff...
Elliott is addicted to fishing and wants to go every day after work. It is some of the best time we have spent together in a long time. We have yet to catch anything. But that is building the excitement each time we venture out...
I stopped by the cemetery to visit my Mother. Her grave is partially under a Beautiful tree so even though it was close to noon, there was a little shade on her headstone and the cloud cover made it somewhat overcast at that spot as well. I talked to her and my Father for awhile. Then I wished my Mother a Happy Mother's Day and placed the white carnation lei onto her gravestone.

It was such a simple, yet profound sign, of her presence and her acknowledgement. But most of all, her Love. I remembered when I was about six years old. My Mother and I were at an airport in between flights somewhere on the continent. Just her and I. We stopped to get something to eat in a small airport cafeteria.
