The wife opened one of my packages

#1 Post by Graps »

So a friend of mine sent me some antler bases that I use to make antler handle knives with.
My wife knew it was antlers and she likes looking at them.
Well I was preoccupied, and she asked me if she could open the box and look. I said I didn't care.
Now the antlers had the tines cut off so they could be shipped in a smaller box.
I hear a scream from the other room and immediately I knew what happened.
I start laughing...... :lol:
You see, my wife doesn't like to see dead critters that still have the fur on them and the end of the box that she opened had the uncleaned scull portion with the hair still on that the antler is attached to and just split in two.
To top it off, there was a couple of dried up maggots inside the scull.... :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm guessing she wont open any of my packages again.

This is what she saw. And she was expecting nice looking antlers.

Yes. Which is why I think you should not laugh out loud. You also mentioned she has more knives than you. :?
