When I was very young, the first dog that I remember having was an dirty old sheepdog named Roscoe. We lived way out in the country and he was allowed to roam free. He always had long hair and was stinky. One day, he went missing for several days. When he came back, he had a haircut and a brand new collar. The collar had a tag with some different name on it. Because Roscoe was clean, we let him in the house that night. In the morning, Roscoe peed on my bedroom floor, all over some souvineers from my first trip to Disneyland. I cried for my Mom and she came in and yelled at Roscoe. Roscoe went outside and never came back.
This week, I made a Tiki that reminded me of Roscoe. It was made from a log that wasn't that good in composition. Instead of throwing it away, I decided to practice my chainsaw skills.
I didn't draw it out or have a plan. I just cut


I wanted to leave on the outer bark. When done right, it looks cool(see Polynesiac) This one looks like my old sheepdog Roscoe with the bark left on.

All chainsaw, about one hour total project time.
I should have posted it under an alias and called the strand "My First Tiki!!!!:)" Then when all you guys started posting positive messages like "Great first effort! Keep carving and Keep posting! Tikidudebudguy", I would come on as Buzzy and say " That tiki sucks man! If I made an ugly tiki like that, I sure wouldn't share it with the world. You should give it up cause you suck!" Then I would answer back under the alias that Buzzy was rude and it was my first effort, and it was fun. Then I would be Buzzy and say "Fun for me is beating you up!" Then my alias would post a sad final message about not being welcomed here and how he was giving up carving because he didn't want to get beat up. Then all you guys would think I'm a jerk and kick me off the site. Please don't hate me for making an ugly tiki this week. It was only practice...
