It’s time for a true story.
Years ago I worked as a cable guy, little more to it than that but I’ll keep it short. I went to Fayeed Shabazz’s home to work, and as I was dealing with his computer I looked over and noticed a taxidermy joke. A beaver, posed menacingly, bared teeth and claws forward.
Fayeed was downstairs and came up to check progress. I asked him about the beaver and he had a story. Was trying to fit in with the local Texans so they took him on a hunting trip. Gave him a shotgun and said shoot anything that moved. He was losing hope as the group marched through the property and he was still empty handed. Near a creek, he saw a jack rabbit duck into the tall grass at his feet. He got excited and yelled to the men that he had a chance. They said just wait til you hear it move and point the shotgun straight down.
Something rustled and he took the shot, blindly. A moment later and the men found the animal and started laughing. He killed a beaver instead. He vowed to take it home and get it stuffed anyway. Which he did, and from that day it was in his home office. He would ask people if they want to see his beaver which sounded like a joke at first. But no, he had a stuffed beaver posed for the attack and it was pretty funny.
The end.
