Man, I love Hooptylau! What a great time, with some of our dearest friends. Many, many mahalos to the drunken hat & tiki cleen for making it all happen, and for being our sober chauffeurs for the evening. Mahalo also to Jungle Trader & his wife for opening their lovely home to us. Tiki Hula deserves some mighty mahalos for offering up many wonderful prizes, any one of them would have made a great grand prize, his generosity was truly amazing. Mahalo to the hoodlums of the Central Valley for providing the just the right Hoopty touch to the evening's festivities. It's the buddy system or bust from now on -- we were all a bit panicked when we realized that our dear jab was on the loose on the mean streets of Modesto, wearing naught but white pants and a wee beach robe, his chest hair exposed to lord knows what sort of abuse from the gas-fume-crazed Modesto natives. Minnie's was fab as always, though they could use a few more lightbulbs! I nearly burned the joint down in an effort to make enough candlelight to read our menus! Despite its strange allure to men whose taste I otherwise love & respect, the crazy curly hair is not going to become part of my regular repertoire of hairstyles -- my Modesto 'fro & jumpsuit is only for Hoopty, baby!
