is a shiny fiberglass fish "home decor" ?

After today, when entering the lake house you may expect to be greeted by large laminated menus.  Or possibly the Free Credit Report guys singing in their pirate costumes.

Because this is what arrived and was hung with great pride over the television.

The Gorilla ordered this thing months ago from a man who specializes in fish replicas.  We do not fish.  There is no pretense that we caught it.  This particular fish only resides in cold northern lakes and we, my friends, are on a very southern lake. 

Look at the teeth!  (The thing does have nice detail, I will give it that.)

Still, I feel like we're in a restaurant.  I should brush up on my cheese biscuit recipe.

That, my friend, is fabulous. Really. Even better than the pictures is this: "a man who specializes in fish replicas." What a calling.

I can get you the name of a guy who specializes in spiders and bugs -- does them for museums -- no insect is actually killed in the process.
