Best four words I've read in a long while:
And great to see art from the Panders.

A few Pander Bros fans have emailed me since my blog post to ask if I had any more pics of Pander velvets to post; I don't. I had no idea they had such a following. So, this reminds me, sometime ago...

A naked chick story? That's the best kind...do tell.

Robert,
Do you think that Thatch will be open before Christmas or New Years?

Hey Robert,
If you drop us an email or PM when you're ready for your opening we TIKI HUNTER would love to come back up to Portland from the Bay Area and vend at the opening to draw even more attention and customers for you! 
Besides, we would love to see what survived from the Jasmine Tree!

We looked in this weekend while the door was open. It's come a long way since June. We also saw all the tiki statues in the empty space next door. is there going to be room for all those? Yowzah! I'm looking forward to many fine rum drinks there!

well, after a long and hard work day. I realize that Thatch will not be open for NYE, especially since someone rented out POUR for big bucks and that will take all attention/staff.
I am looking at VIP/TCers party on Jan 5th. You have to send me a personal message to get on the list. I figure that way I can can keep out the rifraf/Jimmy Buffet fans.

Friday the 5th works for me, hope all goes well, I can't wait to see it finished!
You sure looked worn out the other day, so I hope you get some time to rest up before opening!.

Beyond exited to hear you'll be opening!
We've been hearing updates from Maori Man,
but haven't been able to stop by and see progress (since the crawl stop last June at least:).
