Mahalo Paipo!

Oh MAN - I love those sperm whale tooth photos you posted! Every year in December there is an arts/crafts fair at the Mission Houses Museum in downtown Honolulu (you Oahu folks may know of what I speak). It is a great fair, and every year I make a beeline to the same vendors who have a big sperm whale tooth in their case of curios. Oh - if only I could have that tooth! Not only do I love teeth (as you may have noticed in my mugs - Ms. VanTiki is always asking "what's up with you and the teeth?") but with Moby Dick being one of my favorite books combined with being an icon of the south seas with a dash of the old Hawaii whaling industry the sperm whale tooth is the bomb. OK. Perhaps I've said too much. It is late! Forgive my toothy ramblings :)
