My cousin Chris, lives in north carolina and over the summer he came and visited my grandma's house with the rest of the family. My grandma has a mounted marlin hanging in her garage, it's about thirty years old. one day I was looking at it and Chris comes up to me and says, " It looks like it was painted." I turned to him and gave him the dumbest look and said, " you are the biggest city slicker I've ever known." the rest of my cousin's started to laugh so hard and Chris was so oblivious. that's a story we'll never forget.

some people just don't know how things are mounted.I have had people ask me when I was doing taxidermy work;how long befor the meat in that mount starts to smell??????[][X(].
