These are things that don't happen to non-trappers...
I had pulled 2 of last year's carcass coon from the barn freezer on Friday, and they were thawed and ready to skin. The reason I had froze them was that they were too muddy and bloody to deal with at the time, so I chucked them in the freezer and forgot about them.
Anyhow, I got them skinned out and decided to give them a good wash before re-freezing (I like to flesh them better when not 100% thawed out). So, I grabbed a 5 gallon bucket, filled it about 3/4 of the way with clean cold water and dropped the hides in.
After about 20 seconds sloshing around, the water in the bucket looked about like the floor mop bucket at the local abbatoir LOL. I grabbed one pelt and started "squeegeeing" the water out by squeezing the pelt with one hand and pulling it towards me with the other. Somehow, the tail end of that pelt built enough momentum to SNAP like a bullwhip when it exited the water and splashed about a 1/4 cup of that nasty water right in my open mouth...
It tasted about like what you think it did LOL.
To my credit, I didn't even gag, finished washing out the pelts and then headed inside for a listerine swish and 2 cans of bud lite.
Anybody else have a tale of woe?
Just happy to be here.

You may think before you act. The question is did you listen to your own council?

I drink whatever is in the house fellas... last night it was some leftover bud lite.
Even worse, I normally drink Busch Lite because it is only $17 for a 30 pack at Kroger (I won't pay Canadian extortion rates for beer, luckily I live near a border)
We could talk about Ontario beer prices, but that is too gross even for me.
Just happy to be here.

I have nothing clever to put here.

I buy Busch Lite every year ahead of deer season as they actually donate some of the money to conservation efforts... better than subsidizing some billionaire sports team like the NFL or NHL I say. I tried all that fancy craft beer and such and found it wasn't for me... I guess I don't have a refined palate LOL

slydogx What you got to pay for a case of Puppers can you even get it?? My son been watching a show from Canada called Letter Kenny. Their always drinking Puppers.
I've more than twice picked up what I thought was dead skunk. One juiced me all up my right arm and right side of my face. Was at second stop just after day light on an all day line...Only baby wipes to clean up with and get the yellow of my glasses. Glad I had them on... I skin my skunks right on the line. One them skunks came back to life after I had his back legs out and was ready to pull his hide. That one juiced me all up my right leg. Had my son and one of his buddy's with that day. Son said why did you let him do that. Not like I let him it just happened. Sons buddy had to ride rest way home with his head out truck window. Every time he tried to roll window up he'd start gagging almost heave.. Son and I just laughed at him. Mac

Mac, I have never heard of puppers, not sure if it is made up for the show. The town where the show is supposed to take place is about 6 hours drive from me I think.

Taser, what does a case of carling run now? Over $30 I'm guessing? Cans closer to $50?

And what's wrong with that?
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.
