Sunset today was one which was nothing to write home about. Just to prove it, I provide the following photographic evidence: A lot of clean up on this little guy and some sanding will do it
Why, do like sitting in traffic? :) Buzzy Out! |

VonTiki: Sup' Man! You know that, but you met me....I'm tiki on the inside, but not on the outside, though. That is what I'm working on. I want to be recognized as a tiki guy by the guy who works the drive thru at Weinerschnitzel, not just you guys. If I commit a horrible crime, I want the APB to be for a tiki guy, armed and dangerous. Most crime happens after the sun disappears... Put some color on this guy. I'm going to go look to see if I have any Weinerschitznel coupons... Where Are My Keys Buzzy Out! |

Hey Duddy. Glad you like the progress shots. ready for today's lesson? Carving a tiki body from a log First thing I did was draw the centerline, mark the outer edge, and bring the head to the right size. I then carved the neck, and made the angle from the chests highest point to the bottom of the neck. Next, I carved the pie shape out that will makes the torso and arms and carved in the lines where the legs would be. Next, I carved the angle that would make the shins to the top of the feet. Then I removed some material from between the legs and marked out the feet At this point, the torso is formed further by moving back the arms. I'm leaving enough for the hands while I do this. I'm also bringing out the feet and defining the legs better. The gouge on the side will divide the hands from the legs Here I've brought the hands back and am working on the top of the legs The bottom of the stomach is taken back and the space between the legs gets deeper Now I've carved a slot between the arms and the torso. This defines the ams, seperates them from the body, and gives further depth to the torso Next lesson: Body refinements and face carving. Enjoy! Buzzy Out! |

It would have to be a trip to the hospital to slow Buzzy down, I'll bet he has snuck a scalpel and is carving the doctor's furniture. We expect a sunset photo from the hospital room view. Get well soon. JP |

Just went over to Buzzy's place, the truck is out front but no Buzzy, no Zaya and no dog. Will keep on the case; I'm lending him the first season of "Jack of all Trades" to recupe with. Jeez, this is impossible! He's a superhero! Maybe Lex Luthor is responsible... |

Hi guys! Well it wasn't Lex Luthor that was responsible, but his evil nemesis "Back Breaker" that was the villian this time! Buzzy and I had some big plans for the weekend including the Tonga Hut on Saturday night, but early Friday a back injury he's had was aggravated. It started getting really painful, and went from bad to worse in record time. Before he knew it it was over the top with no relief in sight, and he wound up spending Sunday night until all hours of the morning in the hospital. Right now he's in good hands, and is trying to get some well deserved R&R. He'll be back as soon as he can, and in the mean time I wanted to let everyone know he's ok. What a great group of friends we have around here! Back to the lair, |

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Zaya, make sure he doesn't try to be a Hero and come back too soon from this. We will be fine(kinda) without him for as long as it takes, but he can still operate his camera right? |

Here's the fix.... lay down on your stomach, and have GROG pile palm logs on top of you until it stretches you out... that way your back feels better, and you'll stretch out to be 6 inches taller! |

Hey Buzzy, hope you are doing better. If you can make it to 4WD's next weekend, just hang out and have a beer. Give your back time to heal. Every Tiki carving I have, is throwing positve juju towards Mission Bay. |

Thanks GROG. The biggest disappointment of this whole situation was missing all you guys up at Tonga Hut a couple Saturdays back. At the rate of recovery I'm experiencing currently, I should absolutely make the next one. I went to my real doctor today and we are now treating the cause of the problem, as opposed to treating only the resulting symptoms. The list of shots, steroids, and meds I'm on right now is twice as long as the list of every drug that I've ever been prescribed in my life prior to today. Right now words are not making sense to me, so I'm going to stop trying to convey anything meaningful through them... I heard on the news while i was away that we had some of the best sunsets of the season last few days... Let's see if we agree with the weather guy today... The first step back to the normal routine has been taken. FREDDIE: Now if I could just somehow add the photograhic part of my memory to the Pornograhic part of it, then my tiki island mansion dreams would be realized in a day. Thanks all you guys for your prayers, blessings, and kindness sent my way, means a lot. I'm Buffer Now Because I'm on Roids Dude!Buzzy Out! |

Sorry to hear you have been out with your back. I have a very bad back and have been in the same space as you. Hang in there....it will get better and gotta stay away from heavy lifting. You are lucky to have so many wonderful friends here, so you are never alone. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. :) |

All a good sunset needs is a few clouds...
Be it known that I shall forever refer to Loki as "The Prophet", for today the words of the prophecy came true. According to my translation of the original passage, at least. Now I need to go look at my muscles to see if there are any visible results from the roids yet. Then I'm going to use those two hooknives to shave my body hair off, to make me look even buffer. I cannot decide if I want to train for strength, or for bulk. I think i'd make a good Mr. Olympia. Applying Bronzer On My Abs Next Buzzy Out! |
