I hate to burst your Tiki/Hawaiian love connection bubble, but 'tiki' does not exist in Hawaii; tiki is not a Hawaiian word as the Hawaiian alphabet has no 't'in it.

(now, where's my drink...)
Then how can we have such words as...

Tourist? or Tai (as in Mai Tai) or Airport (why they'd crash if they flew into an airpor... wouldn't they!?!) or the perverbial...
Cocktail (I myself would never like a cockail in Hawaii!!)
Aloha Bongz!!
