Maggots ? Yum ! Them's good eatin !
JP, that is your trademark. Randy, that skull is a doubly functional acroutremant. Rich, the lady bugs are just the kind of personal touch I am after. Naz, those maggots are cool as can be. Wish you would open up your page for us to see your stuff.
bad as me with my "lady Bugs" got a mess the little red buggers and always put one on each git i make ,,,, When i was growing up in "rural" America ,, all the old folks said if u got one on ya ,, ease it off as it was measuring u for good luck or some new clothes ... I never got either ,,, but made me feel good as i laughed with em !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there a story behind this, or is it just some random thing?
