Yeah, I should smile more. Especially in that second picture. I think the sun was in my eyes or somehting. As for Alphie's appearing in "Tiki Road Trip," I'd like to at least THINK I had something to do with that. I remember going to James' web-page and not seeing Alphie's listed, so I wrote James and told him about it. Also, James posts about every email he gets and I did not see anyone else mention it on his site. I also told Otto at Tiki News about it awhile ago, and he suggested I write an article about it, but then I found out about Tiki central and figured this would be an easier way to get the word out. But I'm not upset about anyone taking credit for my "discovery." (I didn't really "discover" it after all. I mean, it had been there for about 40 years before I walked in!) I'm just glad people know about it and now, hopefully, TC-ers will go there and the owners won't put up any more parrot posters! :D BTW, Sabu, I think I've found out something about the Aloha Lounge. Go to that post and check it out. |
