1. Ugh...ugly creatures.

But, if you're collecting skulls, I suppose it's necessary, eh?

[XemaSab]

2. If you want to make an omelette

You've got to break some eggs...

ps I think they're sort of cool looking alive, but this one was sure ugly... :scared:

[GOPisEvil]

4. I don't mind them in flight. But on the ground? Ugh - that face!

n/t

[XemaSab]

21. Aw, come on!

I think they're cute with that big, red, bald head.

[momophile]

3. should I ask why you collect skulls?

or should I just keep quiet? :hi:

[XemaSab]

6. Just for the interest

it's an ok question to ask... :hi:

[GreenPartyVoter]

5. My son found a seal pup skull on the beach last year. It is now on the

secretary in the kitchen.

[XemaSab]

7. Cool!

That's a cool skull to have!

I haven't got one... yet. :D

[antigone382]

8. Wow...that is so awesome!

What other stuff do you have in your collection?

[XemaSab]

11. If I told you

it would get this thread locked! ;)

[ZombieNixon]

9. Gotta love the skull...

But what's with the JoeMentum avatar? Don't post in GD with that! ;)

[XemaSab]

12. I am trying to upload a custom avatar mobius made

wait, I mean, uh... BWHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right??? :evilgrin:

[sakabatou]

10. Ooooo!

[Oeditpus Rex]

13. I found a cat skull once

Put it in the back window of my car. I was gonna wire lights inside it so the eye sockets would glow. :evilgrin:

But it started to smell... x(

[XemaSab]

14. I "accidentally" left a skull I found in my friend's car

He called and asked about it three days later...

:evilgrin:

[Oeditpus Rex]

15. What do you use to clean skulls

to kill the smell germs? Formaldehyde? Bleach?

[XemaSab]

16. Cold water maceration

Basically, you put them in a pot of water in the yard for a few weeks/months and they get *really* clean!

You''d be surprised!

[Moochy]

17. Just don't let the kids play catch with it!!! n/t

[XemaSab]

18. And why's that?

[XemaSab]

20. Ah yes...

It's such a temptation to use chicken heads in lieu of authentic sporting equipment, but I MUST RESIST! :cry:

[billyskank]

22. Fairynuffski!

:hi:

[XemaSab]

26. Do what?

:shrug:

[billyskank]

31. I'll tell you what do

fix your avatar! :D

[EstimatedProphet]

23. How many skulls do you have?

I used to collect them when I did field work.

[XemaSab]

28. I've got a bunch

I'll PM you with the details.

[EstimatedProphet]

29. OK

[Spider Jerusalem]

24. I thought the most morbid was one of these:

(I still kind of want one for a desk ornament/paperweight, though.)

[XemaSab]

25. That's some pretty morbid dental hygeine...

:scared:

[Spider Jerusalem]

27. Being buried for a few centuries will do that...

not having developed toothpaste yet probably didn't help, either.

[TX-RAT]

30. where did you get it?

[XemaSab]

32. Roadkill

Or at least I assume it was roadkill. It was by the side of a road.

[NV Whino]

33. I have one of those

I also have a skunk skull. Interesting thing to be found in the boondocks.
