...and the "what to post where" should be self-explanatory (in MOST cases) by the very simple headers of the different forums. Also, most of the times, mis-posts get accepted if they are among the first 10 a newbie ever did, anyway, which shows tolerance. But if none ever get corrected, it shows indifference -which is a sign of devolution of a web forum

DustyCajun,
I DID do a search and nothing pertinent seemed to show up. I know very well how to use a search function, I've been a forum mod for over thirteen years...on my board we don't sh*t all over a guy for posting something pertinent to the general topic, we might perform the search for him and show him where to find the answer, but there was no answer to be found since I didn't actually ask anything more than a rhetorical question.
By his own admission BoraBoris was being a dick to me for no other reason than I tried to add to the community and somehow offended his delicate sensibilities. I won't apologize because I did nothing to apologize for, but I am kinda sorry I found this site!

You're absolutely right DJKen. As we all know, Bora Boris **HATES** it when someone tries to add to the community.
What a tool he is, that guy! Here you were, just posting something pertinent to the general topic, and he sh*ts all over you. OK, well maybe it was better suited for Collecting Tiki and not the general topic, but I mean c'mon!
-Randy

Wow DJ Ken, I don't really get where you're going with any of this?
I admitted to being a dick for interrupting your post and trying to steer you in the right direction, I apologized for using your post as an example, yes my tone was a little sarcastic but that gets to the point quicker and can be more entertaining, I cited other examples of things that happen like this but neither one was yours and then you lost it! If you consider that being all over you, you must be so thin skinned we could actually see your blood boil. Which would also be entertaining.
So just what exactly were you looking for as a place to post your Trader Dick's mug picture?
Not in the Trader Dicks location thread? 
Not in Tiki Finds?
Oh in the DJ Ken found a Trader Dicks mug thread!
Then I apologize again that it didn't exist yet and hope you find more Trader Dick's mug to post in your thread now that it's been established.
I stand by my post, I have no personal issue with you DJ Ken and I hope you stick around.

This can only be resolved with a fight to the death at Tiki Oasis.

Maybe it's just the Sam Adams Summer Ale and the promise that the bar will gather together the ingredients for a proper Mai tai but.... Seriously? This is still going on? I'm fairly new, and I've made mistakes, but I always try to think "will others find this interesting?" and "where does this fit?" before posting something.
And the original post belongs under another thread and that was pointed out.
'nuff said about it.

DJKen,
No hard feelings. Just a quick response to your original question that started all of this nonsense. The page on Locating Tiki says that Trader Dick's is still "Operational" (that usually means it's still there).
But just to make sure it is still there, you can go down a page on that post and see that somebody just went to Trader Dick's and posted some nice pictures of the inside. Again confirming that it is still there.

So, in summary, the search function championed by Bora Boris really does help answer the questions which you seek. This would have been a perfect thread for you to post the mug from your garage.

On a side note, since this came up and has everybody's attention: Last week a friend of mine was going up to Reno on business and I told him to check out Trader Dick's. He went on a Wednesday, turns out the place is only open Thursday-Sunday now!
