| 8. Golf with Volp Walpole CC. People, this is
not for the faint of heart. You either need to be an All-World
Drinker or be tournament tested. This is your basic Steel Cage
golf tournament, no holds barred. It's a lot of laughs and won't
tie you up for the whole weekend. I beg you not to buy this
for one of your customers and stick me with a 26 handicapper
who is also a teetotaler, unless of course he's a sandbagger
and is really a 12. Along with a thirst you'll need a USGA handicap.
The tournament is usually run on the 1st Friday & Saturday in
October. David Volpe (Volp), will be hosting. Includes golf,
cart, food, liquor, skins, and the money & flight pools. Such
a deal (as long as your liver can take it). |

| 20. ESTRADA LES PAUL GUITAR. What we have here
is another 60's import blockade knock-off of the famous Gibson
SG (Solid Guitar) Jr. originally designed with Gibson Guitars
by Les Paul. This is one of the Japanese (in this case made
by Suzuki) imitations that caused the import/export blockade
back in the 70's. The Japanese were flooding the US market with
patent protected imitations that were near perfect copies. The
Gibson version was made popular by PETE TOWNSEND and
LYNYRD SKYNRD. Many others, including KID ROCK,
are using this version today. This Japanese copy SG Jr. is in
classic Heritage Cherry Red. It's in great condition, in appearance
as well as the electronics. BID high for this 60's classic axe.
