But are they harder to mount that way? I guess they wouldnt be as rare in that form, too common. I prefer to bag the less prevelent ones. They look so much better in the trophy room (AKA...the add on to the trailer built out of plywood)

But how many taxidermists know that the correct way to display an SG is to put the thinking end facing the room. And thus, unlike most animals, it is the rear end that faces the room. :twisted: :eek: :D:

:D: Can you let me know when they start selling the 'nooner' ticket!

Actually, wouldn't no end face the room since the problem is that SGs don't think at all?


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Good answer, lol.

They do think but not like us normal people.

CM: May I help you?
SG thinks about chicken he had for dinner last night: Where is the entrance?
CM: Right behind you sir.
SG thinking of why buttons are round and so pretty: The AP entrance please?

They always thinking just not like us, lol.

Most SG's don't have a brain!! So it wouldn't matter which end is facing out!!Most SG's usually ignore rules and pass off bad behavior as someone elses fault. Such as: I thought it was o.k. to use this pass twice on the same park, as "they" told me it was O.K.! Remember, SG's number one rule: "I am for all rules for the other guests, but it dosn't apply to ME! Now let me break a rule by doing what I want, and then you must apologize to ME!"

The problem with SG's is that they usually can't see beyone the end of their nose!!

lol - my friend had a guest a few nights ago that wanted to upgrade 12 tickets she'd bought at a discounted rate by adding another day to them. When we do an upgrade, we take whatever you paid originally and apply it towards the box office price. Well, 'someone' had told her that it would only be $10/ticket to add a day to them, but in truth it was more like $60 because of the good discount she'd gotten. She threw a fit when we refused to upgrade them at the price she had been quoted by 'someone'. She kept yelling "THE GUEST IS ALWAYS RIGHT!" and finally my manager said "I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Goodnight." It was awesome.

I've got an open invitation for the cooks tour at the Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson. Part of the tour will be to get inside the XB-70. That is one beautiful plane.

That HAS to be gratifying!! I wish that a more forthright approach would be adapted, so that some of the SG's would not be encouraged to continue their behaviour. A few banned for one year, or banned for a period of time, would get the attention of the SG's!

Things like theft or fraud should be automatic. Other things, such as trying to scam tickets, like you described, should be a one year ban!! When SG's do that, Their true nature comes out, (CON-man) and they should take their business elsewhere!!
