What's next people? Yuck. I doubt that those peacooks are living out their lives til they fall over from a natural death to serve their makabre future as props. I definitly prefer them alive, decorating the landscape.<BR/>We had a lot of small farm animals growing up and my mother would send some of the hides of the poor creatures, that had become dinner, to a tanner and place them around the house on chairs, sofas, etc. Once she had the nerve to do this to my favorite bunny. I still don't know what is was she was upset with me about. I had that fur all these years until Mozart took a liking to it as a puppy.<BR/>Some people would require therapy for a childhood like mine.... hahaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01078108543084500912noreply@blogger.com
