Antelope

Ted went antelope hunting with a friend in Wyoming. He came back with a great buck and excited to make a European mount with the skull.

Do you know the process of creating a European mount??
1. Must let head rot in a garbage bag in the garage for a week so the antlers will come off.
2. Must boil rotten head, maggots and all, in a large pot in the yard on the camp stove for several days.
3. Must have wife's help to replenish water supply in said pot although she is 17 weeks pregnant and gagging her guts out.
4. Must don mask and gloves to rinse head and pull out remaining brains, eyeballs, skin, etc and refill pot to boil for additional days.
5. After all skin, fur, maggots, etc. are off, take skull and bleach with HO for several days until shiny white and very dry.
6. Put pot with skull in it on top of freezer in garage so it's out of the way.
7. Finally, let wife knock the pot off of the freezer so you now have a skull in many shiny white pieces.

Oh my gosh, I am about to cry for you. I would have been in absolute tears (from the beginning step) but I particularly mean after you smashed it to pieces. So sorry, and so disgusting!
