It'll be a heroic demise!

While I doubt that the Tommy Bahama clientele would care enough to form a school of belief and yaddayaddayadda...I have some thoughts...

  1. That sounds kinda David Koresh-y.
  2. If it were to go down that way, I think you'd have a better chance of getting a kid who lost his bicycle to remember the alamo than to remember the heroic demise of the hard core mid-century tikiphile.

Yawn.
