Would you steal this toaster?
Jim's landlord is out of control. He's a skilled woodworker who just completed a mango wood cedar chest that he donated to Daughters of Hawaii to display at Hulihee Palace. His specialty is gutting antique radios and turning them into beautiful jewelry boxes. He seemed pretty normal until he showed me his latest project- the toaster. This circa 1970 toaster oven looks like a real pile from the front, but the back is a koa wood jewelry box. The concept? Keep the toaster of jewels in the kitchen. No one will ever steal it.

Ingenious - but it begs the question: Why does a guy have such need for jewelry storage? Not that there's anything wrong with that ...
I have absolutely no bling - except for a $40 Kenneth Cole watch bought in Ross on Palani Road four years ago.
The toaster will probably be sold to a lady or gentleman who has a need to stash valuables.
Brian, I salute your non-materialistic nature. You have your priorities in order. (leaves more money for beer, right?)
