Two newly-born tikis, Mark E. Marq and Samoa Sam, were arrested late last week and charged with listening to Exotica and drinking Mai Tais in a dedicated Country music/beer/pork rind zone.

Mark E. Marq, seen here in his mug shots, is the older of the two by about a week, and stands five feet tall, with a blotchy queen palm complexion. He wears a sheepish look, most likely due to the fact that that's about all he's wearing.

Samoa Sam, although born later, was carved from a well-aged sable palm, is three feet tall, has a two-tone complexion, and wears a perpetual scowl, no doubt from being subjected to repeated karioke renditions of "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" by his jailers.

Although, almost quite literally being 'born yesterday', the two tikis were able to outsmart their jailers and make their escape while the guards slept off a donut binge.

Mark E. Marq and Samoa Sam then made their way to a Polynesian-friendly part of town and took up residence at Palama Tiki's place, hiding in the vegetation and blending in to the surroundings so as to elude their captors, who, at this writing, were too busy watching CMT to pursue their quarry.

More details will be forthcoming as this story progresses.
