    I have been over to Ed Gilbertsons house in San Francisco and what none of you knew until now is that he has been producing knock off Ricambi Originali Hula Dolls for quite some time in his garage.

    I could tell you what his Ebay name is but then I would have to kill you.

    I hear that, I get images of Jimmy Carter and family sitting in the cheap seats at the theater.

    Clock's tickin'.

    I have interesting information that I could share about the Hula Doll, but, as I'm currently on the run, I don't have time to type it in right now.

    First off, I'm not currently in Pennsylvania. I was there once, but I've been moving about constantly since 9:00 Monday night. I repeat I'm not in PA.

    Second. I don't speak Italian, or Australian. Ask anyone who knows me.

    Third. I can't tell real tools from fake ones. (OOPS, that's probably not good for my case.)

    4th. I don't have the foggiest notion what La Scuderia Rossa means. (OOPS again.)

    5th. I've never been to Orlando, either.

    6th. Tom S. has a lot more to gain by throwing me under the bus here, so he can grab this Hula Doll for himself.

    7th. I'd never bid that much for anything.

    8th. Tom S. has a lot more to gain from this subterfuge than I do.

    9th Tom S. is a **** slinging weasel.

    10th. Tom S. would only buy the hula doll to dismantle it so he can repair HIS hula doll.

    11th. Tom S. IS in CAHOOTS WITH ATOMIC-CANDY. It's time to let the truth out. Careful examination of the photos in the ebay listing indicate that the outside wrapper is in fact not celophane at all. It's heat sensitive sealing wrap, which was not invented until 1979 (Thank you Ron Popeil). Therefore this is a carefully constructed FAKE!!! I warn you, when I come in out of the cold (BRRRRR.... being on the run in the frozen states sucks) I will reveal a REAL HULA DOLL.

    If you care to check, you'll see that I'm right, and the "winner" of the fakey-doo hula doll will be in for a rude awakening.

    Additional investigating has revealed the following:

    The picture Tom posted earlier, in his attempt to distract us, is in fact an old photo from his days in the Navy. Upon some careful checking, the picture shows, from Left to right:

    Orlando (La Scuderia Rossa), Tom S., Dave H. and ATOMIC-CANDY. Apparently they served together on an ATOMIC Sub!!! the USS Honolulu, during the early 80's.

    They cooked this plot together, all the way back then when they were bunkies together, and have been hording fake, 80's repro hula dolls until just the right moment.

    Not suprising, is it?

    My friend is sniping this and is willing to go to considerably over the current price. He is a wealthy and fanatical hula doll collector.

    Sorry but I don't think she will be dancing for any of you....

    See,

    There's Orlando slipping in under a new user name here to taunt us.

    Next thing you know, there'll be Hula Dolls flowing west from Italy to the US, disguised as the real deal for sale in poorly worded or ambiguous ebay auctions.

    Please don't let him do it!! If he wins the auction, someone here, (well connected in Italy) will have to contact the Italian governement and get it seized by customs, and crushed like the fakey-doo Ferraris they keep grinding up over there. We can't let this travesty go unchallenged.

    WELL, that's over.

    Thank goodness Nunzio ended up with it.

    Now I can come back in from the cold.. DAMN, it was gettin' pretty freakin' lonely out there, and becoming an increasing problem to find a WIFI hookup to follow the action from.

    Oh, and contrary to my prior posts,

    [size=+2] THIS BABY IS THE REAL DEAL!!![/size]

    I dropped a bundle trying to find its equal with no luck at all.

    Therefore I must award this to the owner of the fabulous original example, pictured above.

    I take this hula business quite seriously!!!

    I'm looking now for models who best personify the Hula Girl ethic to model for the official sticker.

    Any of you women out there who qualify, please emal me several photos along with a 100 word essay (can't read more than that in one sitting) on "Why I should be the FCA official 2007 Hula Girl"

    I'll be passing all the applications on to several of the contributors here who have asked me to handle this anonomously for them.

    "American Idol", move over--------make room for "FCA's HULA GIRL"-------the show that travels throughout our land to find the current year's winner (assuming the show will go on for many years). Playing the Uke is a definite plus.

    Anyway, you guys are a hoot:)

    Cheers, Hank

    Tomorrow I may post a picture of an original on a factory competition Dino. My question is how much extra to pay if it's included. Serious business.
    Also, how would I verify the originality of Enzo's signature on the buttocks?
