which "plane" would you use for the delicate china figurines?
A fake moose head trophy on a plaque ? again??
Is it just me or is this moose/deer/freakin'gazelle thing is becoming less and less moco?
Personally not loco about it anyway.
The knife is nice though.
Fred, I think this pretty much signals the end of that "m/d/f'g thing", which is why I put it in there.
I like the spear picks very much. The contrast between the sharp point and the organic bloom is very clever.
Hmm Harry, what does Moco Loco mean any way?
DT: Mocoloco = Crazy About Modern Contemporary. or something along these lines.
DT, Fred's got it, Mo = Modern, Co = Contemporary, Loco = crazy. If you know Spanish you'll also have a good chuckle. ;)
I like the fairy tale book shelf, don't really look much of use but really creative.
the moose is amazing moosehead fred!
