Here's an ottaman we made from Hippo feet and covered with tanned Elephant Hide

Jerry,
I've admired your work. I am very proud of the Axis Deer you did for me. However, I really like my "foot", a gift from our mutual friend David Guitar!

Jerry,

How'd you get that foot stool over the top of that 5000 LB hippo? You are a clever Devil!

Seriously! Nice work as always.

Mark,
I will have to answer for Jerry, he is shy about this subject...

You see Jerry is a hit man for the mob and this is how he stays in the taxidermy business..He takes a Hippo and a mob guy to the junk car lot and has them compressed together like they do a car, that way he gets paid for the hit, gets rid of the government witness and sell furniture at exhorbant prices...

Hell of a deal! I taught that boy a lot early on, however he is getting some bad advise from Fayette, but thats an inside joke...

That looks like a contraband cigar, Rusty. I'm afraid I'm going to have to confiscate it, and its holder.

Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

After due consideration of Fischer's concern over possible contraban, I have decided the only thing to do is to burn these at the Double Rifle Shooters Society hunt this weekend!

I suppose the guys would help?
