not you . . .
i just hate to see negative feelings tossed around. more often than not they have to do with internal conflict rather than external.
cheers!!
have fun and enjoy life my friend!

Oh I knew it was not me, I only Think Bad thoughts.
I would be the first one sent to the cornfield.

Everybody: Thank you for all the enthusiasm and love you brought forward for my humble creation, it was really a wonderful experience to meet y'all. A special thank you for all those determined Tikiphiles who came from far away and braved the traffic, and to those kind hearts who got mugs for people as far as the East coast.
And thank you to all my old friends and familiar fans who came to share this golden hour in my Tiki life, and to Jay for making the environs dance, and to Holden for making all this possible.
One of the greatest rewards was hearing stories from the Bahooka waitresses and owners how much notice this mug has garnered for the restaurant, and to see the charge they were getting from that, and to know that I had made a contribution to getting this wonderful, original haven more attention and business in these hard times.

Agreed.
It was amazing to see such a gathering of amazing and genuinely nice people all celebrating a local/legendary establishment. I can't wait to see everyone again at other events! I'm gonna try to make the Tonga tonight, and do it all over! Also, Sven congrats on all your success! Thanks for signing my Tiki Modern book!

This was a great event! I really dig the times when we can all get together and not get lost amongst the throngs of countless people. It gives us time to catch-up and hang out with our Ohana, just like in the old days. Mahalo to all who showed up and mahalo again for all of the kind words regarding the new Bahooka mug. The "Bahooka Family" is so great to work with and their enthusiasm with this mug project made it that much more enjoyable and a lot less like "work".

Looks like everyone had a great time! But, then again... who doesn't have a great time at Bahooka?!?
And a big, huge, thank you to - you know what? I actually don't even know your name on here - but Deb, you know who you are 
Thank you so much for getting a mug for me, from one of my favorite places. And the couple pics you sent me... always a nice little bonus to see Samantha's smiling face!
Can't wait to see some more pics!

Good times indeed.
Between the Mug, the food, some drinks, and a Sven DVD.
I dropped close to 100 bucks,
yikes!!
and boy was I feeling the pain later last night, and this morning.
But it was a blast indeed.
Great tunes Jay, I always love to hear ya spin.
