WTF Wednesday: Scrunchies, Buddhist Yoga Butt, Hands of a Clown
Hello there, Wednesday! Hello there, WTF!
Last week we were at a sold out show at the Orange Peel, standing behind a woman with a curtain of fine, silky hair.
The Orange Peel has a "Big Ass Fan" which blows a stiff breeze through the room.
You can probably guess that long hair plus a big ass fan equals disaster for everybody behind her. We all had mouthfuls of her hair. Next time, I am bringing some of these to hand out. Simple.
Moving on to an interesting book I picked up at Goodwill last week - Buddhist Yoga.
Written in 1975 by Kanjiitsu Iijima, this book contains many nuggets of wisdom, some anecdotal (balding man stops using soap on his head, hair grows back), and some helpful diagrams.
But the most stunning paragraph, maybe the most stunning paragraph I have ever read, is below (Extraordinary effectiveness of constricting the anus):
I don't know where to begin with this information, but I felt it needed to be shared. WTF!?
Now for a segue into gospel LP's.
So I jump ship in Hong Kong and I make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking.
ASK.
Christy Lane's Complete Book of Line Dancing by Christy Lane.
The hands of the clown.
Meat.
Last but not least, this thriftstore craft:
You figured correctly.

WTF Wednesday: Vintage LP's, Framed Goat, Smurfy Dancer Jesus
Wednesday seems to come more quickly every week! WTF?!
Let's start off with a giant skirt doll. Under the skirt was a football sized bean bag.
Heeeey.
It will never cease to amaze me that people frame photos of goats.
Math, people. Math.
John Nave's jacket and tie could not be any more 1983.
Victory Trio, at the crossing, with duck toes.
The Statler Brothers, Oh Happy Day (when Daddy brought home a weed whacker).
How to Be Somebody.
A tool of our trade. (We trade in excrement.)
Last but not least, may smurfy Jesus have this dance?

WTF Wednesday - Banana, Waffle, Aerobics
Greetings, Wednesday! Greetings WTF!
Welcome to a short and sweet holiday edition of WTFW.
In the past month I have found 2 food items left behind in cupboards by previous owners. Both expired in 2011.
Moving on to an 80's wunderproduct.
Better off raw?And did somebody just take a bite off the front corner of that meat slab?
This 1979 book was full of black and white drawings and step by step instructions to show you how to enjoy exercise the way you've never enjoyed it before!
Last but not least, here is a waffle faced hound dog.

WTF Wednesday: Thrashing, Churning, and Caroling
Happy Wednesday! Happy WTF!
Let us begin with a question to modern society - when did it become acceptable (mandatory?) to wear head to toe black and only black? Every piece of clothing and luggage these people were wearing was black.
I know I dress like a pinata, but come on.
Here's some lovely hotel art signed by the photographer - Janet van Arsehole.
Moving along to perennial favorites - 60's record albums! The Thrasher Brothers -
Are Coming Your Way!
And Are Turning it On!
These people are seriously churning butter.
And The Vicksburg
In Nashville, in white shoes, next to a river.
This looks like an interesting book.
Gotta read it to find out which part.
Lastly some holly jolly holiday decorations.
Pretty much sums up my feelings about the holidays.
Are you caroling, or are you barfing to death? Hard to say!

trucker hat bonanza
while thrifting last week i came upon a bin chock full to the point of overflowing with vintage 70s and 80s mesh and foam trucker hats.
it was clearly the collection of one man. a man who loved baseball caps. he may have had an obsession.
there were 58 of them, a few of them have doubles, 95% were in unworn brand new deadstock condition.
i've already sold a handful, but you can see photos of the fronts of the entire original collection here: 70s 80s vintage trucker hats
i think it's a fascinating snapshot of a human being.
what did he do for work?
where did he buy his tractors?
where did he buy his tools?
where did he do his banking?
what did he like to eat?
where did he go on vacation?
what did he do for fun?
what did he consider himself?
to the farmer from western north carolina who donated his lifelong hat collection to the goodwill, i say thank you!
all of the hats that are still for sale can be found here: 70s 80s vintage trucker hats on Skippy Haha Vintage Etsy
