While on a recent trip upstate to good ole Greenville, NY, my brother and I found ourselves in bit of a predicament - the Nintendo Entertainment System didn't work! "Egads!" I exclaimed to James, "How are we going to stay out of trouble with no Nintendo?!?!?!" James looked to me and cryptically said "we don't. Today, Brother, we climb trees."
And so began a day that would go down in history as The Day When Matt Almost Broke his Leg for the Third Time.




The exciting part about this adventure (besides me not breaking my leg again and attracting the wrath of El Sar) was that while in the woods, we happened upon a single shedded whitetail deer antler!


Look how proud James and I were! Now that I have this antler in my possession, the obvious question is "what to do with it?" Sarah wanted me to graft this to my forehead as part of my RockBand outfit, but I felt as though if I'm going to do this I might as well hold out for moose antler and do it right. So, I am therefore considering suggestions as to what sort of craft project I should do with this one of a kind item. If I hear one that really strikes my fancy, maaaybe I'll just go ahead and do it. If not, I'll just keep this thing around intact and poke Sarah with it. I'm cool with both scenarios really.

You should totally mount it on a beveled wood plaque painted a nice bright neon color, buy Sarah some awesome vintage necklaces to hang on it and presto! instant original handmade jewelry display...makes super rad wedding gift for your wifey to be. (what are the chances she won't read this and said surprise will be spoiled? haha!)
hey brohio, i just fixed a bunch of 72 pin connectors and restored some nes' to pretty much brand new. i'll show you how with just a phillips head and a needle next time i see you.
later eskibro.
I think it should be the basis of the worlds scariest Tim Burton-esque childs mobile. Hang brightly colored fingers and bullets from it. Maybe have it accompanied by the music from Psycho or the Imperial March
