Which Brady was plagued by the tiki idol? Those things still give me the creeps.

HONOLULU A 200-year-old Hawaiian skull found on Maui decades ago and later advertised on eBay was returned to the islands this week.
The skull of a Native Hawaiian warrior was taken from a construction site on Kaanapali in 1969 by a California teenager, who then tried to sell it on the Internet.
Jerry Hasson of Huntington Beach, now in his 50s, said he had sneaked onto the beach with friends and found an entire skeleton _ but took only the skull.
An undercover agent with the U-S Bureau of Indian Affairs contacted Hasson and bought the skull for 25-hundred dollars.
Hasson pleaded guilty in May to a federal charge of interstate commerce with illegally unearthed archaeological items.

LOL. Considering Mr. Brady died of AIDS, the curse might have worked.
But if you die from the curse aren't you "cursed to death" not "cursed for life"? ;) Just wondering?
I wonder if the fed would pay for a 200 year old turd in order to return it to its' homeland? Nah, I don't wonder. I know they would.

Hey, it's been in the family for years.
Ooh, you make me so mad. I bought Brady Bunch Season Four on Tuesday, but I can't watch it until I'm done with Season Three. Now I'm wanting to see the Hawaiian episodes.
Old Mr. Hanalei: "My grandfather said never go there, and I never go."
Hmmm..
Maybe I am missing the humor here..
Digging up somebodys bones is cool?
Auctioning them off is cool?
Laughing about is cool, too?

One for the GGG list? Just as a reminder to idiots & would-be thieves?

Anyone who would do that deserves to be cursed...
Taking skeleton parts...
It makes me ill...
You get great money on EBAY...
Selling someones family...

My grandmother was cremated.
We import numerous human skulls. The difference between a long prison sentence and an interesting coffee table knic knac is where it comes from. East India, $750 dollars. Hawaii, prison.
Sorry it is not funny to you. I apologize. I would never buy a skull, or own one. But we do have a severe double standard.

Don't play head games.
You import human skulls?
I don't know what to say..
Nobody who ever lived, good or bad...
Will have their skull on my coffee table..
We are cruel enough to each other while we live..
If there is no peace in death..
God help us..

I walked right into it, didn't I?
Damnation!

Well, Greg wiped out on his surfboard, and Peter had a tarantula crawl on him. Alice threw her hip out. I don't remember if anything else bad happened.
