So if you think about a globe trotting tuxedo clad secret agent starring in an on-going film series, who comes to mind? James Bond right?

"Proto" Surf song ?? Mr. Moto was THE FIRST Surf Song.  Also Mr. Moto is way more Tiki than 007...
And don't forget, Mr. Moto will be hosting a Tiki Oasis room party at the mysterious International Club !!

Hey, gang! I'm curious about the shuttle situation at Tiki-O this year.
Me and the missus couldn't find accomodations at the Crowne Plaza, so we wound up at King's Inn, just across the way. Walking our wobbly legs the two miles from one to the other doesn't seem so practical after several rounds of libations, so I'm curious how this whole shuttle scene is gonna pan out.
Does anyone know the deal?
Edit: Of course, as soon as I go back and check, I see that they've got shuttles posted at both ends, ready to ferry us back and forth. I'm still curious about how much it'll be, though.

Kings Inn has had a shuttle for the last two years
I would think they still are doing it, Just give them a call to find out.

They have to be short shorts! Oddly, Connery did not sport shorts opposite of the awesome Ursula Andress in Dr. No. But he did in Thunderball and other Bond films.
OSS 117 also sports short shorts in the recent "Lost in Rio"
But Matt Helm and Derek Flint preferred full clothes (even jacket and turtleneck!) when they did pool scenes

Connery could show up in a pretty much anything, and most of us gals would be pleased to see him.

Ditto on that Tanga!!! Strangely enough, I find him most delicious in a tuxedo.
