You're right guys, it IS, and I am, getting TIRED. Tired of holding up the flag of good Tiki. The "Tiki is supposed to be fun and is therefore a free for all" crowd is growing, and often I seem to be the only one stemming the tide. All my friends are already making fun of me still caring so much and putting so much time in here, they have moved on.

It was just...I saw this overlooked jewel in American pop culture, and I nurtured it and worked on making it shine and become more than it ever had been, something that was not just fun but ART...and something that was not just art, but fun. Uh oh, SERIOUS fun!

But lately, less and less people care to play my game that I played so hard for so long. I really have been overdoing it here lately. Those who like my view of Tiki will find it in my books in the future, that is where I shall concentrate my efforts from now on.
