As you suggested, I did make a search and found this excerpt from Tiki Talk: "Aloha! Saturday, August 12 is International Tiki Day! A chance to kick back, relax, and enjoy some strong drinks and a little slice of the good life in your own hometown. International Tiki Day is a real, fake holiday, in the tradition of Cinco De Mayo. Founded by Kevin Bullat, it takes place the second Saturday of August, and loosely commemorates the successful landing of Thor Heyerdahl ’s Kon-Tiki expedition on the Tuamotu Islands on August 7, 1947." I've included this because I want to make certain that all of my fellow "under 200's" are also aware. With this date in mind, what better time could there be to get out there and encourage tiki awareness? Any thoughts or ideas on how to celebrate or otherwise capitalize on this day?

Thank you Hakalugi!
