I wanted to get away from the wife and kids !

HA HA HA HA.....thats an honest answer!!! My wife and kids keep finding all my hiding spots. I usually get caught when i come out for food or beer. Their vision is based on movement much like Trex, so i try to sit still alot and pretend I'm the furniture.

As for me....and seems to be like most of us I have always had this strange unknown obsession since i was a small kid with tikis, shrunken heads, voodoo, anything from the 50"s .....etc. anything tribal art related.....Always felt i was born 30 years too late. And always talked about carving my own and finally got off my butt and started doing it! just took 40 years to get motivated. I have no idea why I have this obsession with tikis....cant remember what ever started it......the attraction has always been there.
