Just got home from the chop. Great seeing everyone. Eric's TJ dogs ruled. Wish I could have stayed longer but no such luck. Hank, you've gotta have more of these.

Hank,
It sounds like a great time was had by all. I'm bummed I missed it. The Headhunter didn't make it down. He was slammed with work.
I was going to go with the fam and then the kids weren't feeling good today. Bummer. Hope to do the next one. Gotta try one of Erik's famous TJ dogs.
Nick

Thanks for hosting another great Mission Bay Mello-Chop Hank!
Let's see what happened! Every word written is true...!
Hodaddy frees Bob from his palm tree entombment where he has been trapped since the mid '50s.
Impressive portrait, Hank.
LLT and 4WD. Ah, man! I was going to wear my Blue Oyster Cult tee shirt, but changed my mind and my shirt at the last minute!
Maria sculpting another fab lil' animal figger.
Kate carvin' up Maui's bestest friend.
Mr. NoNaMe thinking about signing his name.
Kyle doing that mask up right.
Zaya and Kate flanking Buzzy who is doing what he does best at a Chop:
Sipping a tasty beverage and stealing my ideas.
Squid with his R2D2 voice simulator kit with the directions all in Japanese
preparing to call the factory in Japan for a translation.
Maddogmike with his...what is that thing for again?
Hank continuing to free Bob, while Paparazzi Charli moves in...
Squid still on the phone with Tokyo. Ravenne jots down notes dictated in cryptic sub-pseudo Japanese.
It works! Bleep..blip...squeak.. Erik, give that back to Squid and get making those TJ Dogs!
Yeah...that's the stuff...sweet buttery Jesus!
Squid: "Mine indubitably hearkens to a springtime buttercup in both it's ambiance and fortitude".
LLT: "Mine tastes like purple".
Mr. NoNaMe: "Mine lost it's wiener".
Kate: "...boys..."
Bill, stop looking at those funny books and carve!
"Carrots and peas, carrots and peas, carrots and peas, carrots and peas,
carrots and peas, carrots and peas, carrots and peas, carrots and peas..."
The Chop Fortress
Enemy encampment?
We were also treated to a fabulous Hawaiian dance demonstration courtesy of Antoinette.
Here she is using pu 'ili which are sliced bamboo sticks that make a sort of swishing sound used as
percussion.
Next, a pair of 'uli 'uli. These are gourd rattles decorated with feathers.
Banging the rhythm on an ipu, a small hollow gourd. (I learned a lot of new words today)
The hand gestures all have symbolic meanings. (Maybe I'll learn what they are next time)
Mahalos to ya, Toni!
Now I have to go design another mug.
Great hanging with everybody. Hope it's not long until we meet again.
Bowana-Gotta-Go-Now

Mahalo for those who made it and those who tried their best. I have been encouraged to host another Mellow jam and shall consider it if for any reason to watch the TJ dogs and Zipfizz interact. I promise papaya relish next time!
I am sorry i had to run back and forth to the Boutiki. I missed so much but i'm a little short staffed a the moment. Thanks to my angels Toni, Charlie, Andrea and uh... Erik for helping me throw this shindig on schedule dispite the bumps in the road.
I'd hoped to treat all attendees to Freaky Boutiki 10th Anniversapaloosa Tee's but the day was over before I knew it. Guess I'll have to have another before the weather turns a chill.
- Hodaddy
A Gathering of Tribes.
Tiki Kate's relaxed Tiki sets the tone for the day!
A smile from Charlie @ the craft table. That box is full of wood from Benzart!!!
Don't drink out of that Dave! you don't know where it's been.
Mad Dog w/penis gourd.
The great and powerful Kinny
Iron Chef ETR's TJ Dog assembly line.
Reese's pieces seconds away from sugar coma.
Omar's first carve!!
Mad Dog Mike's Mai Tai Sherbert station!
Meiko & Mom indulge themselves with Mad dog's ingenious Potluck desert! A summer treat that can't be beat!
Finknik sighting!! Heath & Matt from the deck of Pilothouse.
BOB LOVES YOU.
PU PU POTLUCK
"What a beautiful day for an exorcism..."
The Pu Pu Potluck viewed from Pilothouse's crow's nest.
Bill's makes his Marq
Charlie & Ravers
Kinny's eyebrow almost takes flight.
Kyle's second carve of the day and first full log!
Anakonia (Toni) treats Lagoonies to a mini hula revue
Groupie booty ahoy, viewed from the crow's nest
