no doubt on the mandi decoy, they are hard to come by.

i use my mandi decoy as a replacement for one of the three wise men in my christmas manger set for my front yard. (i don't know what happen to the one wise man, i swear i put him in the attic with the others) i tried to explain to the neighborhood kids that yes, wise men dyed their hair funky colors back then and vodka was actually given as a gift to jesus, they just left that out of the original story. they didn't buy it, the first night i had her out there they pelted her with snowballs and when i went out to stand her back up they started throwing them at me. so i darted behind the donkey and took cover until they ran low on snowballs. that?s when i made a break for the manger. i took one in the leg but i was able to crawl behind it for cover. then i waited them out until the sun started going down. that?s when i crawled over to the mandi decoy, stood her back up, took a drink of vodka, put the bottle back in her hand, barrel rolled over to the porch and ran back inside. after that one incident they realized i wasn't fooling around and have since left the mandi decoy alone.
