Part of the fun for the evening included a "write a Mai-Taiku" contest..... and I thought I'd share the entries with you. Now, keep in mind, most of these were written under the deep influence of mai-tais & other exotic libations.....
Sugarcaddydaddy:
Tiki party fun
Rum flows like blood in my veins
I'm drunk, get naked
Vintagegirl:
Swim by lantern light
Puu puus, muu muus, mai tai drinks
Terry's paradise
King Kukulele:
Roses are red and
violets are blue but the
East Indies Room ain't
Mrs. Sugarcaddydaddy:
Palm trees sway in wind
Tiki carvers wait for death
Then Tiki is made
Miss Sooki Sooki:
Colorful mai-tais
Fills my summer night senses
With exotic dreams
Shelley (Alnshely):
Torch lights shine blue green
Your sweat fills my eyes and mouth
This should never end
Ski:
Mai tai is my way
your tai doesn't match your shirt
You can't sing "My Way"
Prince Uli Uli:
Sunrise on Maui
Awakens the native girl
Breathing life and love
Wierduncletiki:
Booze splashed on crushed ice
Bouquet of almond tickles
Rum soaked ecstasy!

Just in case some people need a little more info, the definition of a "Hai ku" is:
Haiku is a Japanese structure poem format. It consists of three lines with five, then seven, then five syllables. Generally, they are meant to be expressions of sensation (usually of nature). That is, something you saw, or smell. Like little poetry photographs.
Of course, the contest for TraderPup's party was for a "Mai-Taiku"...just a fun twist in the name but with the same requirements for the poem.

The silence is killing me, so I have to come clean. The three lovely ladies came with me. That would be MomPug, AuntyPug, & CousinPug. Clevelanders just don't know how to party Hoity Toity style. Just when you think your old enough that your mom wouldn't embarrass you anymore....
