Tacky Spanish decanter that weighs a ton and smells of aniseed when you remove the rotting cork.

I am in awe of "Caveman With Cat". It needs to hang next to a Witco.
I found a photo album at a garage sale on Saturday which had these great items from Grad Nite at Disneyland, 1974:

Also found that video that you always see in the back of Details magazine but wonder if anyone ever orders.
Unfortunately, since it is still sealed, I will be unable to partake of its fabled wisdom before selling it on E-bay. Oh well - my loss.

Yeah, I spotted him at Doctor Z's party last week. He ate a bunch of coconut chicken, drank 5 mai-tais, then trucked on outta there.

Found a couple of items this week that aren't quite tiki but pretty close
Once I get over the cover I'll start on this one.
3X8 foot fabric of old Las Vegas watering holes, not sure if I'll make something out of it or frame it.

I found a couple of neat bar stools in a Salvation Army store. Does it strike anyone else as funny that we get so much stuff used in drinking at Salvation Army stores?

Told myself long ago:
"Some things are inherently evil. Don't let them into the house or at 2am they will go for the cutlery."
Short list:
Troll dolls
Most things with clowns on them. Clowny-clown-clown...
Ventriloquist dummies.
Well, I saw this feller at a thrift store and broke my own rule. Made sure they packaged him up real good for the trip home. Could just imagine it coming up behind me and staring at me in the rear-view mirror. I'd ditch the car and roll.
It's a very well made (probably homemade) venriloquist bird puppet-sort-of-thing.
The wings flap up and down, the feet spin, his beak opens and closes, head does a mean 360° Exorcist move and each eye has independent movement, allowing for the creepiest Sammy Davis Jr imitation you will ever see.
Showing the ol' hand-hole.
Really well made, good to scare people over cubicle walls. Well worth the $1.49.
I may have to sell him on eBay if "accidents" start happening.
Also found this cool CB glass. Going on eBay within a few days...
Never realized a Volkwagon was called a "Pregnant Roller Skate". You learn something new every day, good buddy.

JonPez,
When they find your lifeless body all pecked to death, then you'll be sorry.
