Hey, I've posted already (in the thread about Robertiki's new bar Thatch that's in my hood), but wanted to come and introduce myself formally.

I'm Michael, I'm 33, and I just dropped out of a 13 year career as an IT guy for UPS to become an RN. I'm getting a second bachelor's degree and have somehow willingly agreed to take on the role of poor college student again. I hope to be working in an ER by 2011. :)

I've travelled to Hawai'i around 17 times so far in my life and I can say that without reservation that if I have a spiritual home, it's in Kapalua Bay on Maui. Maybe not since they just sold the hotel to turn it into condos, but the sea will always be my home. I love the people, the food, the culture, the weather, and the diving.

I'm an avid follower of all things tiki, though I can't say that I own a ton of it. But I'm here to learn, meet some great people, and have an even better time. I hope to hit Thatch for the grand opening and share the experience and a bunch of great pictures. :)

Cheers.
