I've never been to Arizona, so I have no idea what can be found in different parts of the state. He said that you were getting warm with the obsidian guess, so tears was as close as I could think of to obsidian.
What else is obsidian like?
Gotta remember he is sending out a box of this stuff for free, so guesses like dino bone or meteorite are probably kinda pricy material.
Not technically a rock ... hmmmmmmm

He didn't say he was sending out the material he found yesterday, though. He's sending out stuff he found in the last couple of months.

Good catch Rob!
Can we ask questions; like is it green?
ETA: consider that a hint for someone's guess

Not technically a rock - as in it's a crystal?
can be cabbed and purplish?
Two choices there, I'll go with fluorite

How about Fulgurites?
