P Polynesiac Tiki Socialite San Pedro, CA Joined: Jan 29, 2004 Posts: 2099	P Polynesiac Posted posted on Tue, Mar 29, 2005 10:30 PM Hiya! I realize this is short notice, but as the procrastinator that I am, I am currently finishing up my contribution to the crawl (picture coming soon - about 1.5 hours when the first coat of stain dries) and was wondering....could anyone from the Los Angeles area take it up with them? As you will see, it is a small tiki (a little over a foot) carved from a redwood 4x4, very light and would take up next to no space at all. I would be willing to travel to meet you tomorrow (wednesday) night after work - I could probably leave the Pedro area around 6ish. BAhooka? Sam's Seafood? trader Vics? Purple Orchid?Lucky Tiki? you name the place. Feel free to email or PM me [email protected] and we can work out the details THanks in advance! "Hey, at least I'm housebroken."

I can't leave the house tonight, but if you want to drop it by, I'd be happy to take it up to the crawl. I can P.M. you directions to my house if that works. Sabu.

JT Jungle Trader Member Trader's Jungle Outpost, Turlock, Ca. Joined: Jan 04, 2003 Posts: 3772	JT Jungle Trader Posted posted on Thu, Mar 31, 2005 6:46 AM I know, I know, please no more calls, there's a a huge demand for me to raffle the penis carving, but really folks, the wife would get bent if I gave it away. As it is I'm taking a lot of heat for just bringing it, (she wants to lock it up and put it in a drawer). This trip we will highlight the many capacities of the 4 footer. Somes uses are: Battering ram for breaking down doors, best friend, (it was Poly Pop but not anymore), chick trap, etc. Don't miss out, there will be lots of fun for the whole family. Please be on the lookout for wannabes and impersonators. Just think, IT could be your best friend.

Great, great stuff. I likes Tiki Bob too, I'd probably wear it on my belly chain. I'll be sure to wear a belly-shirt tomorrow just in case I get lucky (or win a raffle item), and will shave appropriately... it is Vic's we're talking about. I never win anything. There, said it, got it out of the way. Now, maybe some reverse psychology/mojo will work on my usual dismal luck. Probably not... midnite

(maybe the blood on the mizy wheel, mixed with the acid bath and the polish formula) Thats the nicest Bob I've seen

I want to thank John Ravitch, who is Otto and Doe's former upstairs neighbor, who was at TV's and had to leave, and gave us his tickets, which won the Bob frame. I told him if we won anything good we'd share. FAT CHANCE! Mr. Pineapple Bot is NOT giving up that frame! And we don't have to name the baby Martin or Hanford! A good time was had by all, really nice stuff was had by a few! mrs. pineapple

Of course, we won a Tiki bowl/mug... but a very stylin' Von Franco bowl at that. Weeee! A few lucky patrons made out like bandits, there were some very nice prizes indeed. Friday at Vic's as good fun, nice to see some old TC'ers and meet some new ones. Special treat was meeting a few long time TC members for the first time. Always good to spend some time with our illustrious and enigmatic proprietor Hanford "HL" Lemoore (if that was really him and not of several look-alikes). Still, I have to say a personal highlight of the evening was meeting the infamous Koalacharms. The Mai-Kai Gents put on a good show, and Emeryville Vic's was its usual first-rate operation. Specific kudos to Martin and Rebecca for their masterful raffling (?) efforts. midnite
