    Not a shrunken head, but I picked up this weird item from a witch doctor when I was working in Brazil about 20 years ago. 7n8znu9bcnkx.jpg

    @Polkitup2 that thing is cool as hell, kinda reminds me of those ancient fetishes with the humongous hang downs. Those are almost as creepy as the "Bob's Big Boy". Which by the way I am in the market for.

    Loved that movie with Karen Black it was 3 short stories Triology Of Terror, would love one of those Tiki Dolls in the cave have you found one? If so where from.

    The Tiki Gods that keep my Blu Ray audio discs and SACD's in order strike a conversation at times especially when put on top of my speakers with a bag of volcanic ash for soundstage improvement.

    More seriously though, I also have these... old concert play bills from various bands and eras, framed. Maybe a dozen or so...

    Weirdest thing in my listening room is probably my media storage area. For records it's a re purposed freezer. For the cd's it's a rack of 80's vintage roundhead York dumbells helping to support the cd racks

    Speaking of disturbing, not sure where to hang this. It's not like a shrunken head that fits any decor.bg0exhicbd2n.jpg

    Hey you wanted weird.....the ball was signed by Steve Nelson. Probably before your time and back when the Pat's were at the very bottom and painful to watch. Quite similar to today's Cleveland Browns.

    @motorstereo nothing is before my time except time itself lol. I remember watching Jim Plunkett self destruct with the Pats when he was fresh out of Stanford.

    Nope, none here. Not even a Billy Bass or a Tur-Duc-Hen.
    I think Russ may have mounted a few, though.

    It's peer pressure, Russ -- I am not a strong one.
    As Pete Townshend once said of Keith Moon, I am
    "a great joiner-inner".
