I'm jealous of your photo opportunity. Hey, did anyone notice besides me that down the street from the Hanalei in another hotel was the National Lactation Convention? What bunch of boobs. What a bunch of suckers. I tried to take a pic of the sign but it didn't come out. Shame, really. Who is going to believe me? Anyway, so here are the Saturday night photos. I was far, far FAR too hung over Sunday morning to post these "immediatamente"...let it just be said that the parties got EVEN BETTER Saturday night, and I didn't think that was earthly possible. Memories were made, notes were sternographered, pics were taken. Forgive me if I forget or mispell your names once again, but here goes: The entertainement: The dance troupe "Burlesque As It Was"...later appearing at the National Lactation Convention down the street Baby Doe halfway between the "Barnacle" and the "Starfish" go go moves, performs while the Blue Hawaiians rattle our bones The looker-onners: Holy purple hot pants, Shelly! Move over bacon, now there's something purpler! Who is that CRAZY person that keeps jumping up on stage during everyone else's shows? The Fez Patrol wants to know. Out in the crowd: This photographer is lucky these guys weren't wearing kilts Hot and sweaty from go go-ing on the grass dancefloor, I still managed to get a hug from Al-tiki Ok, enough dancing...thirsty, must room crawl now...ahhhhh look, here is a willing bartender, Soccertiki and his magical forth-springing tongue serving up in the Unofficial Derek Yaniger Tribute Room.....Adam, how is that art copyright suit coming along? Woohoo Wahine announced that I had the best haircut of Oasis 7...Ernie was hurt that he wasn't considered a contender. I offered him runner-up consolation...and he got a glowing tiara Adam and Suzy win "cutest couple", Suzy wins "best smile"! Ernie and Heather "du Leather" Watts discuss the new Simpsons outside of Soccertiki's bar One of the best parts about room crawling is the people you run into on the elevators...I finally met the new Mrs. Smiley and her proud hubbie, Bruce, whom I haven't sen in ages (also one of the first tiki people I ever met so long ago). This is their blind child, Sock Monkey. Another elevator encounter...Ken and his lovely wahine, who's name I think I forgot to ask Finally landing in a room party, I encountered the Armoury of Tattoos (Laura, Jack, Michelle and the Mystery Elbow man in the left hand corner) Matt Reese could have been that Mystery Elbow! Also attending was Judd, about to break into the song "Hey Mr. Tally-Man, Tally Me Banana-suit" Judd brought along his real-life O'hana, David, whom I have now realized was the elbow in the other pic Bongo Fury and Ran were serving up drinks (Bongwater and Ran's new invention which I forget the name of now), so I proceeded to get on the Night Train to Drunkeness. Here is a photo of two people in the room whom I was introduced to, but all I remember is that I own the same purse as this woman At this point, everything was making me laugh until my stomach hurt. Spermy invented a band called the "Poodle Kittens" and showed us their dance which he named "THE FACE". In this photo he demonstrates the one move in the choreography which involves getting your face as close to someone else's as possible. Have Scott perform this for you in person. Johnnie Velour took us into his room to sell us his fine crafted ceramic mugs. Here he and Greg (Bealza-Elvis) barter the technicalities Let's have a closeup shall we? Satan says "BUY MY CERAMICS, *SSHOLE!!!!" Velour was making us (Greg and Cyntiki) laugh so hard, every time we went to take a group picture he kept trying to stick his ceramics in the photo. I almost peed I was convulsing so hard from giggling, but the night before JV offered to pee with me while I laughed so I wouldn't be embarassed if I did. What a nice guy. Everyone convinced us we had to go up to room 1803 and wait in line to be permitted into the largest party in the hotel one person at a time. PiPhiRo Paul decided the REALLY cool people should ditch that party and proceeded to lead the Sausage Train down to his Frosty Arctic Room of the North where he served up "Cannibals" , then celebrated his victory with a cigar As I left the shindigs for the evening, the last face I saw in the lobby was our proprieter of Tikiculture himself, Mr. Von Stroheim. How is it I managed to look like his mother in this pic? Thanks for the entire tiki nation, Otto. Ok, gotta run, the National Lactation Convention is just getting heated up down the road...hope I didn't miss much! See you all Sunday! Tikicutie

Krustiki, I love the Bamboo Ben Diorama! I'm jealous of your photo opportunity.

Hey, did anyone notice besides me that down the street from the Hanalei in another hotel was the National Lactation Convention? What bunch of boobs. What a bunch of suckers. I tried to take a pic of the sign but it didn't come out. Shame, really. Who is going to believe me?

Anyway, so here are the Saturday night photos. I was far, far FAR too hung over Sunday morning to post these "immediatamente"...let it just be said that the parties got EVEN BETTER Saturday night, and I didn't think that was earthly possible. Memories were made, notes were sternographered, pics were taken. Forgive me if I forget or mispell your names once again, but here goes:

The entertainement:
The dance troupe "Burlesque As It Was"...later appearing at the National Lactation Convention down the street

Baby Doe halfway between the "Barnacle" and the "Starfish" go go moves, performs while the Blue Hawaiians rattle our bones

The looker-onners:

Holy purple hot pants, Shelly! Move over bacon, now there's something purpler!

Who is that CRAZY person that keeps jumping up on stage during everyone else's shows? The Fez Patrol wants to know.

Out in the crowd:

This photographer is lucky these guys weren't wearing kilts

Hot and sweaty from go go-ing on the grass dancefloor, I still managed to get a hug from Al-tiki

Ok, enough dancing...thirsty, must room crawl now...ahhhhh look, here is a willing bartender, Soccertiki and his magical forth-springing tongue serving up in the Unofficial Derek Yaniger Tribute Room.....Adam, how is that art copyright suit coming along?

Woohoo Wahine announced that I had the best haircut of Oasis 7...Ernie was hurt that he wasn't considered a contender. I offered him runner-up consolation...and he got a glowing tiara

Adam and Suzy win "cutest couple", Suzy wins "best smile"!

Ernie and Heather "du Leather" Watts discuss the new Simpsons outside of Soccertiki's bar

One of the best parts about room crawling is the people you run into on the elevators...I finally met the new Mrs. Smiley and her proud hubbie, Bruce, whom I haven't sen in ages (also one of the first tiki people I ever met so long ago). This is their blind child, Sock Monkey.
