VENTRILOQUIST DUMMY - $85 (san jose east)
I was looking through Craigslist when i found this:
30 inch tall Charlie McCarthy with string in the back of his neck that you pull to make his mouth move. Composition head and hands with cloth body. Missing the monocle and shoes but these items can still be purchaed. He was made in 1977 by Juro Novelty Co. which is stamped on the back of his neck. There are no rips or tears on his cloth body or his clothes.
It's pretty creepy but to each his own.

I actually had a really creepy doll a while ago. It was given to me by my mother who wanted it out of her house because it freaked her out. She told me to give it away too and i did, to a guy who also hated it but i left it at his house so he was stuck with it, time passes and Suimush and I actually move into the same house as the doll and the guy, our roommate, Signofthesun. We all hated that doll,
It was porcelain and was painted like a creepy gothic evil clown thing.
A guy came over to sing for the band and he loved the doll so i gave it to him.

Should have sold it to him and made a few bucks.

I guess they don't call you Gainer for nothing!

yeah, maybe. I was just so happy to have someone respond to it with affection and happiness rather than horror and disgust.
I was really scared that someone would damage it though, cause i felt like i would feel it's pain, like it was always watching me....
but, really, it was creepy too.

hustler no doubt should have heard me talkin shit this last weekend when I was drunk after winning $20 on a pool game spent it all on pitchers of beer. Every time someone tried to bum a cigarette I tried to sell them one. Some emo chick was trying to sell a few pain killers. I was like I'll sell you a real hustle. Then I jumped in a conversation with some dudes talking about their jobs. I was like how much money do you make? Before they could even answer I snapped off with your not making real money unless your selling drugs. I tend to talk a lot of random shit when I get smashed.
