BEN, I know you're having this giant sale this weekend but I may not be able to get out there until next week. Please save me a "Mele Kalikimaka" hanging sign if you look like you're going to sell out. I already gave my best friend one and she LOVES it. But when I went to hang mine I realized it is spelled wrong. My stick-in-the-ground sign is fine as is my friends. Cory has his eye on a bar also but is going home to N.Y. for the holidays so maybe we can work out a deal when he returns. Thanks a heap and "Mele Kaikimaka" to you :wink: :wink: :wink: |

Nui Nui 2, You're right. That was a long, distant time ago. Many brain cells have passed on since then I guess. |

Reverend Eraserhead! I'll try and swing by on Saturday for the sale but no singing for me unless it's "Amoeba." I wanna check see that pic of you at the Circle Jerks show. Mele Kalikimaka, Arty |

Oh man, Laney.... I should have pulled that sign off the wall. A customer noticed it over the weekend. Sometimes when we do quantity production, slips occur. A few years ago Ben had an order for 1000+ bamboo candle cups for Toes on the Nose. The branding iron was never ordered by the client, so Ben hand carved "Toes on the Nose" on each cup. Well, some read "Tose." ooops. Could have been worse, I guess. |

I think I stood next to Nui Nui before there was a pit! I think "slamming" wasn't even a word yet. Nui and I hung in the same crowd. Newport/ Cuckoos nest! Hey Nui, remember that riot down in Balboa (when you's used to play in the garage)with all those hippies and us with garden tools!!? And just think, we're all mellow now enjoying tiki! |

Ben, I can't believe you remembered that. I almost fell out of my chair laughing at the thought of us all grabbing weapons (shovels, hoes, rakes,etc.) and running around that parking lot attacking hippies and their cars. Just don't tell my wife or kids that story if I ever run into you on the street. |

Alohas, I stopped by Bamboo Ben's yesterday and picked up some awesome Bamboo frames for my Matson Lines menus at 50% off! Ben & Mrs. Boo, Mahalo for all the great ornaments and your hospitality. Great surprise visit by the Baxdog yesterday -- good seeing you, bro! Don't forget to check out the pic of the Baby Bamboo Ben at the Circle Jerks show -- how'd you get into that show anyhoo? Oh yes, and the Witco barstool currently on display. Unbelievable! Mele Kalikimaka, Arty P.S. The Baxdog will be performing Wayne Newton songs all day in the parking lot today. Don't miss it! :wink: [ Edited by: stentiki on 2002-12-22 13:52 ] |
