But if Buzzy does not find an armful of stuff, that means the well has run dry...!?

It's not that it wasn't there, it's just that sometimes I'm a little more selective, or more likely broke!

To start off this week, I'll list what I remember seeing in the wild this week but passed on for one reason or another:

1 pair Bali Hai S+P shakers with omc stickers, no chips, cracks or defects w/plastic stoppers: $20 because "they are collectable"

4 Harvey's Bucket Mugs: $16 for the set

1 Giant set of "nicely" carved tiki fork and spoon: $20

1 Small set of poorly carved forks and spoons: didn't ask price

1 PNG 12" mask: $7 (Two weeks ago it was $5)

1 Hawaiian shirt book: $5

1 Aloha shirt book: $30

1 Thrashed copy of KonTiki with slipcover: $2

200-300 random 60-70's Hawaii postcards: 25 cents each, less if you buy more

1 Coco Joe Menehune: didn't ask price

1 PNG woven mask styled thing: didn't ask price

My friend called me from the swap meet later on yesterday after I left and heckled me missing one of these for $5: Okolehao Green Tiki Mug

And this is what I ended ujp bringing home:

Daga Fisherman's Wharf Tiki Mug

OMC Hawaii Kai Skull mug

2 Tikis Bar and Grill tiki mugs

Black Moai tiki mug from Kemoo Farm, Hawaii

Tiki shirt with one of those groovy plunging neckline/ single button configurations

Hawaii postcards:

I dig that Coco palms bed. I bet the ADA would make something cool like that never possible in this country again.

Total spent: $19.50

Bigbro, I hope I've restored your faith that the well has not run dry, yet.
Buzzy Out!
