Flounder its kinda hard to feel sorry for you when I know your sitting there looking at all your pretty fish in your even prettier 30 dollar bamboo fishtank flea market find!

Oh yeah, whatever happened with the fish tank anyway??

Last week I drove up North for Thanksgiving and it became apparent to me the reason for BK's insane success in scrounging up all the tiki goodies. From the Florida/Georgia line to Atlanta on I-75...this is the absolute truth...every third exit ramp has a freakin' antique mall! Right next to the highway, antique mall after antique mall. That and pecan stores. Why does Georgia have so many antique stores? Who knows? Maybe they waylay tourists passing through, dispose of the bodies and sell the personal goods. Ever see "Macon County Line?" Lucky for my wallet I had my dog with me and couldn't stop and shop. I probably passed up hundreds of swell tiki mugs! :wink:

Seriously though, I was quite surprised by the number of antique malls along I-75 and I did think of BK and his epic finds.
