Also at a flea market I got a mustache mug (with the mustache protector inside) with an image of different mustache styles along the outside $10

and at Le Garage, my favorite New Orleans store (junk/antiques/vintage clothes/army surplus/lots of old Mardi Gras stuff, and better priced than most of the tourist joints on Decatur) I got 3 matching pair of lederhosen straps. So we can be jackalopes von Deutschland if we want. Or Swiss Miss jackalopes. Or just look cracked out.
