Thank you so much to all of you who came out to celebrate. What I thought was going to be a quick nightcap with a couple friends turned into a full-blown rum-fest. I was totally surprised! When we first walked in, I saw Sven and Naomi over by one of the back booths and though, "Hey, there's Sven and Naomi! How cool to run into them here." Then I noticed that also in that general area was Johnnie and Lady Velour, Pi Phi Rho, Ookoo Lady and Krustiki, Dr. Z and Dolphin Tiki, Vintage Girl and Atomic Cocktail, Kick and Mrs. Kick the Reverb, The Wersmo Derincs, Tiki Bird and Utopian Dream, Futura Girl, Phantom Surfer as well as some of my non-tiki friends and relatives. As I approached, cameras started flashing and folks started cheering "Happy birthday." I was absolutely flabbergasted! Rum flowed and laughter ensued. I could not imagine a better way to spend a birthday (or any night) than to be surrounded by such fine friends and Trader Vic's was just the icing on the cake. And what fun it was to close down that joint! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You all is the bestest! Let's do it again soon! -Weird Uncle Tiki p.s. Mahalo to Johnnie Velour and Humuhumu for helping Miss Mauna Loa pull off this spectacle. Thanks Jungle Trader for the birthday wishes. And to Martiki who left me a swell "Happy Birthday" rendition on my voice mail, you have a lovely singing voice.
