Guernsey cow! As if one of those inferior Jerseys or Anguses or Herefords would end up there.

You’ll have to take that up with Mr. Lehrer. 😉

Dear OP,

I don’t know how much of your wish for trophies stems from wanting to impress the ladies. But I can tell you that if I were to visit your house and saw these heads on your walls, I’d be gone about as fast as when you proudly showed me your “Silence of the Lambs”-style women costume made from the skins of real women.

Yours,

Maastricht.

Bonus! You wouldn’t have to hollow it out first!

I would have gone with either GWB or someone like Jack Welch.

Karl Rove & Rush Limbaugh.  
I might need a bigger wall though…

[QUOTE=Balance]  
Would you actually want to look at that on a regular basis, though? Dumped in the attic/basement/garage with all the other mathoms, sure, but on the wall?  
[/QUOTE]

The wall is the best place to mount a target.

No heads. Just a mutha rack of antlers to hang my hat collection.

OK, a crockigator head would be cool. Showing his teeth of course.

I could mount the antlers to the croc, thereby creating a crocobuck, crocomoose, or elkigator.

Aaaaaand an elephant’s foot table for cocktails, complete with a flexible trunk to hold your glass.

And a jar of dog paws, so I’ll have a place to rot if I ever swap God for a janitor.

The OP’s would do nicely. Provided the room was in the basement. Or out in the garage.

I think macho male behaviors like this are intended to impress other _males_. Certain types of male acquaintances, at least.

(FTR I’m male and I’d be disgusted too.)
