A Sad Day for Tikis Everywhere! - General Tiki

Beyond that and "Margaritaville" (sp?) I couldn't name a Buffet song. However, I notice that there is not only a lot of humor in this thread but a lot of honest to goodness disdain for all things Buffet. It seems to me that part of embracing all that is tiki (or even some that is tiki) involves having a certain sense of laidbackness (new word) that would almost tend to preclude such directed hostility. You know what I mean...the difference between "Jimmy Buffet? Nah, not really my thing, but, hey, e komo mai! Have a volcano..." and "You like Jimmy Buffet?! He sucks! You suck! You're not welcome here!" :) Peace out, G... A6
