I'm irritated that I am even writing a disclaimer here but based on past experiences, it seems necessary. My husband hunts. We also eat chicken, fish, beef and pork. I say this to warn you that I'm about to post pictures of the Sexy Beast and the deer carcass. In the past I've taken shit over this post, when I hit a bird on the freeway ON ACCIDENT, as if I purposely ran the fucking bird down with my truck and then stuck it's head in my grill. To that person I want to say, go get a new prescription because that is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of to get all ass-hurt over. And Aidan is my son so that's saying something.
Now that we've got that out of the way, the Sexy Beast's first kill of the season. I love how Aidan always poses with it, having nothing what-so-ever to do with the harvesting of the thing. In fact his involvement is limited to posing with it and then instructing his dad on how to do everything during the butchering process while commenting on the "nastiness" the entire time. Oh, and sometimes he plays with the severed limbs. Good father/son bonding experiences!

i <3 aidan! in fact, i might start an aidan fan club!
you wouldn't BELIEVE some of the comments i reject on my other blog when i post taxidermy art. i rejected six yesterday that all just said "WRONG". lol (most taxidermy artists are veg and animal rights activists who only use roadkill and animals that die of natural causes, you ignorant jerks!!)
ah well... what can you do about stupid?
Well, I for one LOVE your deer carcass!!
I sort of love you more because you're not afraid to admit to hunting. Everyone is so damn Political Correct these days. We hunt. I even help cut up and pack the meat. So go you! And send some venison my way!!!
I wish you'd send your husband my way. Those frigging deer are like rats in my neighborhood. At this time of year, they fairly jump out in front of my effing car.
Most people who protest about hunting know jack shit about where their food comes from so tell them to go suck ass.
sorry for the Monday morning profanity.
Cheers

Congrats to your husband.
I hear you about the disclaimer. My hubby got a deer yesterday on opening day. I have some funny pics of him with the deer, but I am hesitant to put them on my blog. To hell with it...I'm gonna do it. And I'll probably take your idea of disclaiming it. I refuse to censor my blog. Thanks!!!
Diane, if you start an Aidan fan club, consider me your first charter member... I love him, too.
I just adore that smile on his face.
While I am not a hunter or come from a hunting family, I will fight to defend all of your rights to hunt if you so chose. I prefer to watch the wildlife here in our community, but I do see some of the damage that the deer around here can do to people's property.
I don't agree (IMHO) to hunting for sport, but hunting for food is something that I think anyone has the right to do. Bon Apetite...
I laughed so hard at your disclaimer, my hubs pressed pause and asked me to share with the rest of the class. TOO FUNNY!
I know you ran that damn bird down. I just know it! Bwahahahaha!
Is there a cure for stooooooppppid??
Ugh!!! My father used a rifle to hunt and my husband bow and arrow. Thankful my husband never shot one because it would be harder to throw them back, the way I make him throw the fish he catches.
=) that totally cracked me up. Some people are so ignorant. And they live to be offended. But hey, that's a perty deer y'all got there. Enjoy!
Coming from a family where it seems thay all hunt except for my husband I have no issue with it. In fact I like venison, especially when it is from aroung the farms where they are "corn-fed" and do not have that "wild" taste. Having helped my father once butcher and prepare 30 or more chickens once I would be the last to fuss over the shooting of a deer. It sounds like you and your family eats the meat, so it isn't just for shits + giggles hunting that some do (as long as the meat is eaten or donated). I agree with the previous comment that we need to keep it honest. I am also sick of the extreme political correctness that makes people feel they cannot say something for fear some group out there may take offense (of course I am referring to things that are legal and not meant to offend). After all no one needs to read this post or blog if they find it offending. There are many "foo-foo, life is all rosey and grand" blogs for those who find "reality" a bit too harsh.
I never understand why some feel they need to comment rudely or negatively. Remeber the saying "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all"?
I won't always agree and feel free to say so (nicely) when I do not, "if" I am asked to comment on a particular matter. Otherwise I pass, and so should anyone else. I see no such request on your post regarding this matter. For those offended by the sight of a hunter and his son, best to just move on to the next blog and say nothing.
I have freaking died porcopine on my blog with no nasty comments.
Where are my rude people? Lame.
That deer looks better on the computer than my blackberry. Nice work SB!
yeah, my family does this with geese *rolls eyes*
Poor bambi, tasty, tasty bambi...Actually I hate deer meat, makes me get well-acquainted with la toilette...But my hubby loves it, we have a freezer full!
