What a great Saturday night I had! Matt, your a real good person and I'm glad I got to hang out with you. It was good to see the usual fun TC FI folks drinking it up. Also, I want to really thank the staff at FI for a night to remember(well,some parts are a little foggy). Best bar, best staff, and best clientele. Thank you!

Ditto! I certainly enjoyed myself this past week much to the chagrin of my liver. Mahalo to all the great Bay Area ohana for making me feel so welcome. Thanks also the wonderful folks at Forbidden Island: Martin, Jim, Jess, Stehanie,a nd the rest of the Fang girls. I also spent a few evenings dinig at the original Trader Vics in Emeryville and wanted to give a shout out to Claudette, Danielle, AJ, and John there. I took everyone's advice and stopped by the Kona Club to check out the awesome work that Bamboo Ben and Crazy Al did there and in between cocktails walked down the street to Mt. View Cemetary to pay my respects to Mr. Bergeron. Great trip, great drinks, and great people. MAHALO!!!!

It was something that was spawned in NYC first one of those planned spontaneous things: "nobody wear pants on such and such a day". It became a a rallying cry for the pro-lavalava movement who turned the phrase "Down with pants!" Check out Andy's website www.fashiontramp.com for info on ordering an infamous "utili-lavlava". FOM is the Fraternal Order of Moai. The FOM is pro-lavalava as well.
