WTF Wednesday: Attempted Assassin's House


Good day, Wednesday! Good day, WTF!

I've seen the neighbors across the street, Fanny and Bill (names not changed because they're too funny), one and only one time since we moved in last December - the first week we were here they were outside and I went to say hi and Fanny pointed at our house and said "Do you know the history of that house?" I started to say I knew it had been renovated...and she said "Oh no, it's the H___ house" and went on about how news reporters were camped out for weeks after the son of the people living here tried to kill the president in the early 80's. 

I'm not going to say the name because he is still alive and it's just too weird, but I think you all can figure it out. 

So we wikipedia'ed the story and burned sage throughout the house and chuckled about it and didn't really consider it again until last week when I saw this carved into the driveway.


So that's slightly WTF. 

Coincidentally, when Kevin's parents moved into their Colorado house, they found one and only one thing left behind in the attic -


Last but not least, there was a ping pong challenge tournament here at the ol H____ house this weekend that achieved muchos WTF levels!

WTF Wednesday - Vintage T-shirt-alanche


Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!

I am sorry to report I have not been thrifting in 3 weeks and therefore have no weird stuff to share. 

I have been pushing through the 600+ vintage t-shirts that arrived in crates last month. So far, I've stain removed, washed, dried, photographed, measured, and posted over 250, aiming for at least 20 a day. Hustle hustle hustle!

Here are a few WTF ones:

WTF Wednesday: 210 lbs of t-shirts


Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!

The most WTF thing I did this week was buy the entire t-shirt stock from another vintage seller, Josh from Kap Kingdom!  He wants to focus on hats, and I am addicted to vintage t-shirts, so I bought them all sight unseen. 

210 pounds of neatly folded vintage t-shirts arrived yesterday.

It took me over 4  glorious hours to go through all 600 t-shirts.

 There are some beautiful gems.

Way too many to post.

A couple random funny multi-print ones a screenprinter used to test screens.

All in all, it was a great deal, I already took 600+ photos of 150 of them this morning - safe to say I will be busy for the next few months.

Pouncey was not blessed with the chunk or thick fur that Sugarhoney was blessed with, and does not seem to enjoy the snow as much as she does, but hopefully this will change with his ChillyDog squirrel cowichan sweater!
