Should I post to the Hukilau list about this? I have been debating it n my head. I suspect there are plenty of FL area folks who do not know.

Swanky,
Sure. It might also be a reminder for those that made a reservation before Christmas and don't realize this is sneaking up on them. The more the merrier.

It's gone out. I just copied some of your words and put them in there.

I'm afraid not, but I have asked Pablus to imbibe my share for me as well. ; )

Hey guys - you're wounding my delicate nature.
I don't drink any more than any mythological Norse diety would on an off day.
Actually - I want to remember the whole day right up until the show is over and I make it back to the beach. Once there I can always pass out in the sand and wake up to the familiar taunts of youth... "Look Mom - that whale needs us to help it back in the water."

The word that springs to mind to describe Pablus' ability to absorb liquor (as I observed it at the Mai-Kai) is "superhuman". The Sidewinder's Fang is about a half-gallon of rum, fruit juice, and (more) rum. The man was working on his second one after sampling just about every other drink on the menu, including some that normal human beings would never even consider ordering ...
In my own brain damaged state today, brought on by a vain attempt to make sense of my employer's total inability to provide me with meaningful work (meaning that Mai-Tai's generally start at noon), I had completely forgotten that Tiki Central consists of multiple forums ... hence my frantic messages to Flounder and Pablus to find out the details on this event.
I'll be up with my wife (Joelle) and my daughter (Christina) who is already asking if she gets to dance. We look forward to meeting everyone - I'm sure it'll be another great time!

Paul is the only man I have of yet been unable to phase under the spell of the KTPR drinks. Paul became my Legionnaire compatriot at that point. Paul is not a tiki enthusiast, Paul is a tiki officer and gentleman.

Ok, could we have an updated list of who's attending this festive convergence?
KG, when I made my reservations for dinner the sweet person on the phone didn't know who or what our group was.....
Do we need to call Wayne as a reminder or are we good to go?

Hey, you guys have room for an intruder from the wrong coast?
I just checked air fares & the ol' piggy bank on a whim, and I think I can sqeak by.
I haven't really thought this out yet, but the fares I'm looking at are for flying in to Orlando, is this the way to go? Unless there's an easy shuttle deal from Orlando to Daytona, I'll plan on getting a rental car.
I would be taking the red-eye arriving Saturday morning -- would any of the locals be willing to show me around before the festivities start?
Before I book my reservations at the hotel, are there any chicks who would like to share a room with me?

I would think your title would be "High-Tiki Ambassador."
<<<... the fares I'm looking at are for flying in to Orlando, is this the way to go?>>>
Most definitely the cheapest and probably the most convenient.
Alright! HumuHumu. A great surprise to add even more good vibes to the weekend.
Now we've got a certified U.S.T.C. event.
BK - sure you can't live with hurty teeth for one more week? Better yet - I'll make an extra batch of Painkillers and Coombs can operate with your nice new sharp carving tools.

Hi Bree, good to see that you remember us!
I think the adorable may apply to Joelle and Christina. Personally, I've been called a LOT of things in my life, and can't recall 'adorable' as one of them! That's OK though, it's been a long time since I rode a horse into a building, and I sorta learned my lesson last time I pulled that stunt at a party, so I'll be on my best behaviour this time around - maybe (or maybe not - I tend to change my mind rapidly once I get in the right company)!
BTW Pablus, I got something special coming in just for you ... remember BK mentioning the antique bottle of absinthe he had? I can't find one that old, but if I get it in time, I'll be bringing along the next best thing. What was it they said? Let the green fairies in ...

Nononononono... let's just stick with "humble visitor."
FYI, I called to make show reservations, and the fellow I spoke with knew exactly who Geoff was and all about the get-together, but said I didn't need to make reservations; he didn't take my name. It sounded to me like they are counting on Geoff to keep track of the headcount.
