Congratulations Troupe!

I saw a spotted looking hog on the side of the road the other day. I didn't think about it at the time but it would have made a nice rug too. I think that's the first one I've ever seen.

I like the blonde.

The rug is darned ugly, but in a cool ugly kinda way...

(I predict it'll start at least one fight between him and his first wife)... :lol:

Very good.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

+1... although "like" might be too strong! :lol:
I gotta say, neither look quite a ferocious as their mounts suggest... or as most hogs encountered have acted... isn't it odd how color seems to affect that perception? I wonder what the "head-shrinks" would make of that?
