More Info at http://www.bambooben.com (LOL)

You can also look to see a virtual tour of the store shot by Unga Bunga on Novenber 19th, 04 in the main discussion TC forumn.

Unga Bunga is a man with taste!

P.S. Just remember that the Bamboo Ben Store changes all the time. All one of a kind all the time. All the products are built by one person (not imported). The only drag is we don't ship (right now). So, if any of you who are out of the area see something you like, I suggest contacting someone (TCer) who is in the area and maybe, just maybe, they would do you a favor. Kinkos/Fed ex and Staples/ups are real close. Just don't have the room/time for a shipping department. Sorry. Have a wonderfull Kalikimaka.

**** UPDATE********

see page 14

This is strange. Whatizzit? Not a Chair. Has to do with tiki and Hawaii. Theres a shadow of Elvis singing in the upper right hand corner of the bag made by bag folds,(nothing to do with it, just a sighting), It's just
for Benz, not a lamp and has something to do with a happening on the 28th or 29th of November. Thats Before the 20% off sale.What is happening this weekend guys?? Think.
Could it be a Bamboo/tiki wishing well? A Sign saying Aloha with a tiki holding it? I guess I'll have to think some more

_This will make more room for thr next game. too soon to know

B

Aha, a basket of clutter for Benz
I kew you were holding out on us.Look at all that Stuff!

A person.

N

You know I thought a person to, just as Flounder. I will say that it is Gecko, he carves tikis and he lives in Hawaii. LOL!

Hints:

Hawaii, tiki and the shape of the bag:

My guess: Ku

The shape of the bag also seems to resemble Ku because the contours have 2 projections in the upper corners.

Ku is the "God the father" type character who often was associated with war, but also had general control over the bounty of earth.

If that's wrong, then my next guess is:

A big tiki mug with 2 giant straws.

Could it be this guy??

or a bar with this guy on the front?

Not that I need one, and not that there isn't already a multitude of tiki items on sale, but will the tiki bars be on sale?

PS: What's in the bag?

Yo Bro-

Everything in the store (excluding the raw materials and our private collection)is fo' sale! Or, 20% off. Even our front desk/tiki bar is in the line up.

On another note, I worked on a mug shelf today that will soon be in the Tiki Marketplace(just need to dial in the shipping crap. Arrr! shipping!!) that will be sold to TC peoples before it goes into the store and/or ebay. To make everything real confusing, these mug shelves will be done in signed, numbered,limited editions but, I'm not setting an ending number. Basically, when I get tired of making "that syle" it goes into retirement like a band. Then a new one pops up. The first in the series is going to be a "Harvey's." So, all of you out there with Harvey's mugs, will be able to display them with a "little history" backing them. The next series might be a Trader Dicks or a Aku Aku/Stardust or a new Harvey's or a Luau, etc. Whatever I do, it will confuse you, but you's will have a killer display for your mugs.

Cheers!
