Yes, you should start your own thread in the "other crafts" section, and the title of the post should be By Bai . And then you should post stuff for sale in the "market place" section, and the title of that post should be Buy Bai . :) MadDogMike won't be able to make it, but we're pretty darned filled up, so we could use the room---especially since BigFreakyDude is Djaying. He takes up alot more space than skinny DJ Lee. And SQUID not be able to make it either, but SQUID was invaluable in helping GROG get GROG' mugs done, so GROG going to sell SQUID' crap for him even though GROG said GROG not going to sell anybody elses crap. But only if the bastard posts some more pics of crap he'll have available. Where's a pic of that neat-looking 'boat thingy" you did? P.S. TURN AND BURN BABS!!!! [ Edited by: GROG 2009-04-04 20:02 ]

I would think that all the artists that are included in my new tributes series, which is premiering and available for sale at the Tonga Hut on April 11, would be honored to have their works tributed by me in a brand new tiki medium. Fine! You are no longer included in this exclusive list of artists in this series! You've been replaced by an artist who doesn't feel offended when his work is tributed. In fact, he feels flattered when it happens! Ladies ansd gentlemen, I introduce the newly revamped "2009 Tributes" collection by Bay Park Buzzy, featuring the inspired interpretations by Buzzy of the work of prominent tiki artists Bowana, Bosko, the Maoi still, because it will sell, the UnMoari Traditional Moko Maori, and 4WD Tiki: Sorry Kirby! Your limited edition line of pendants has been cancelled. Here's an advance sample I just got in from China: Instead of throwing away all 10,000 that they had already made, I had them change them up a bit so that they are no longer legally your work (and I can sell them without cutting you in on the profits. Thanks! Turned out even better for me.) Here's one of my new not inspired by Kirby original tiki pendants that will be available for sale at the Tonga Hut on April 11: Here's the extremely limited not inspired by Kirby original GROG variation tiki pendant that will be available for sale at the Tonga Hut on April 11: See you all there!
