While out tiki-hunting today my wife spotted this most bizarre incarnation of the Johnny Sens "Frankenstein" mug.

Then, later in the day, while wandering through a area flea market I noticed a guy about to purchase a "Voodoo Village" (old KC restaurant) plate. "RATS" (not really what I said to myself, but you get the gist). I asked if he knew anything about the place and to my surprise, he did; not only Voodoo Village but many other lost KC tiki establishments. I thought I knew ALL the tiki-philes in KC so I asked if he was ever on Tiki Central. Yes, he said. Me too, I said. We introduced ourselves with our TC names and to both our surprises we recognized each other! I had been skunked out of a Voodoo Village plate by none other than SQUID in town visiting the old 'hood for the first time in seven years! I went from feeling VERY unlucky to feeling VERY lucky in under 2 seconds! Squid, hope you enjoy your stay in the old hometown. It was great to meet you!
