I find the weirdest crap...

[karlkuehn]

You know, most people feel blessed when they get cured of a disease, win the lottery, or end up with a Nobel Prize, but not me, oh no...

Gimme a hike in the woods, some dead animal parts and some rotten wood, and I'm the luckiest guy around. Go figure.

During lunch at the house we're working at, I went back into the woods again to find some treasures to make pens out of, and I came across a bleached and clean entire deer skeleton, er, most of it.

Since I was hunting for interesting wood, I wasn't expecting this thing at all, and it sort of startled me a whole bunch, because it just appeared right at my feet in a little thicket.

I had a five second thought process:
"AUUUGH!"
"Crocodile!"
"Giant White Spider!"
"Crazy-Undead-Evil-Horned-Forest-Lord that's gonna eat me!"
"unggh?"
"huh!"
"Wow."
"COOL!!"

Needless to say, the guys still think I'm nuts.

Here's the skull, complete with all teeth, jawbone (I looked for some Philistines to clobber to no avail), and weird looking three point antlers.

If it had been the jawbone of an ass, the Philistines would have run in terror.

Well, I was looking for the smaller and lesser known Pennsylvania Philistines. They like to congregate a bit west of Downingtown. Lazy little suckers were probably napping. Just as well, though, I did cut my hair recently, so they might've gotten the better of me.

I was hoping that no one would've noticed my little biblical mis-translation, as technically the jawbone is now mine, so that would make it the jawbone of...ehem...yes, well, moving along now, nothing more to see here...[]

Karl, should be at least 4 pens in those antlers. Good find.. and now go back and pick up the leg bones... there was a thread here or on the other pen forum about making pens from the leg bones of a deer...
