Dead man ridin'...not sure how I feel about this one.

Now I hope I don't die on the crapper!

And so it goes...

Richard,

It feels and looks like Taxidermy to me.

Wonder what the cost was?

Like you, I don't know about this either.

JOKE! Ramone was trying to find a funeral director to handle the final arrangements for two of his gay male friends, who had both died of HIV. No funeral home would take the case. On a whim, Ramone stopped at a Taxidermist and explained his problem. The Taxidermist was glad to do the work. The Taxidermist asked Ramone if he wanted them mounted? Ramone thought a few moments and said, "no, just holding hands would be fine".

My $.02.

I saw that a couple weeks ago and thought it was pretty ghoulish and seeing it again affirms that first impression.

And getting the Bike to stay up-right was not easy..

On the bright side, he never looked so natural.

How would you bury him?

Sure as hell, NOT with the bike.
No question in my mind, this is a new low.

When I was a kid, I got the chance to meet Roy Rogers and Dale Evans at their museum in Victorville, CA. Mr. Rogers told us when he died he wanted to be stuffed like Trigger and Bullet. The lovely Dale Evans quickly replied, "not me, I want to be put in the ground like any other normal person".
