Hey guys! Thanks for all the replies and great info!

Kono, I love your description of where your fascination came from. I've been trying to put mine into words since I came back from Kauai a few months ago and that pretty much sums it up. I mean, none of that stuff is ACTUALLY there...no savages or idols or voodoo or anything like that, but you can "feel" it, you know? The place is so mysterious and rich with color and my vivid imagination makes it feel like its always there, even though I couldnt see it.

As for collecting owls, no man, no! I collect skateboards from the 80's and thats a pretty big vice. I think tiki mugs are next on the agenda. :wink:

Well, I'm off to the book store to read up on Tiki!
