I will go for Jay's DJ set.
but I am still not happy with the drinks there.
weak pours, and not spot on tastes.
I still wish they had brought some of the old TV's staff from BH over.

Jeff, forget about it already! The union situation made that an impossibility. And regular people nowadays do simply NOT appreciate strong drinks because of driving laws, they send them back. I repeat again, they cannot exclusively cater to our minority! They have done that a lot already. And I had no problem with their cocktails like that, some maybe not to my taste, but there is so many and such a variety to pick and choose and find your faves, where in town other than the Tiki Ti can you get such a great variety of "Tiki" drinks!

Which minority is that? The minority of Tiki-philes or the minority of alcoholics?

There is a fine line between the two. We prefer to think of ourselves as alcoholics with STYLE.

I refer to the drinkers in this group as "blackbelt" drinkers....
"Alcoholic" is a big strong.

A "big", or a "bit"? Are you already imbibing at noon again, Jim?

In true alcoholic fashion I just had a blackout(= anti-lightbulb)thought:
What a great moniker for a new tropical drink - Big Blackbelt!
Thanks for the inspiration Jim and Sven
