This first one makes me cringe.
.

.
Remember when I posted about those creepy dolls washing up on the Texas shore a while back? Well now you have the opportunity to own one.
Though why the hell you’d want to I can’t fathom.

I see this every time we visit my SIL at the nursing home. It stands in a driveway down the road from the facility.
Is it Odysseus?
Did he just do a few laps in the pool?
I simply don’t know.
.

.
We stopped at a local bar the other afternoon for some liquid refreshment.
Did they make a good margarita?
Yes.
.

.
Why is there a giant goat head mounted above the bar watching me drink it?
I have no idea.
.
Those goat and deer heads (and taxidermy in general) freaks me out. People are like, “It’s beautiful.” Yeah, but it’s dead.
And dolls are the worst.
The statue with the towel is hilarious!

Very taxing dermi. The blue bib does not really help.

Maybe the goat is wearing Odysseus’ loin cloth and that’s why the statue needs a towel. Maybe I should have another beer.

There once was a goat on a bar wall
With a bib ’round his neck, by the far stall
I didn’t even blink
Just finished my drink
And said, “It’s less strange than a narwhal.”

I’m wit Maryanne, taxidermy anything freak me the hell out. I don’t think it’s beautiful, it would be beautiful if it were still alive. Dolls in general give me the heebie-jeebies, as an adult because as a kid I had several baby dolls. What did I know then I was only 6 years old. Odysseus in the neighborhood? Maybe he comes to life at night and roams around taking dips in peoples pools, lol.

We’ll take credit for the goat, but the creepy dolls belong to Texas.

I beg to differ, Doll Island is on the Mexican side and they just happen to wash ashore in Texas. So technically they belong to Mexico.

Goats have rectangular pupils, that’s bad. Goats with an extra pair of horns are much cooler, especially if they’re black and ill-tempered. I can only think that Odysseus is clothed to hide his little Greek pecker from the artless Philistines who can’t stop thinking about the children.
