    I've had a few of these over the years and always enjoy them. He has a certain suffering freedom that is kind of enviable and NOT at the same time. This one is particularly well-carved with lots of nice little details. I think i saw quite a few of these in Panama or Costa Rica or, can't remember... Has anyone seen my memory lately? it seems to be GONE.

      I thought you found my memory somewhere and added it to your collection, because I can't find it!
