Once again another weekend full of tiki memories. I was reminiscing of Christie and Swanky's first Hukilau in 2002 in Atlanta when my boy Jaksin and I got pulled over with a van full of the Kreepiest tikis you'd ever seen and the trooper took one look at our cargo and told us to have a safe weekend and let us go. That's when I knew the gods were with us! Fast forward to 2008, and the Aloha spirit of the good people that we come across each year doesn't change.

Christie, we can't thank u enough and although we misbehave sometimes, we acknowledge everything you've done for Tiki in the East coast.

To all the artists and new friends that we've met along the way: Talani/ Polynesian Proud, Joe and Donella Vitale, Barefoot Tiki, Wayne Coombs, Tiki Diablo, Crazy Al, Benzart, Lake Tiki, Mooney and Aloha Station, Doug Horne, Otto, Pat Vassar and so many more that I can’t remember right now, you inspire me…keep doing what you do best!

To everyone who owns one of my tikis, I do this for you.

To my Dade county goons, Jaksin and Beon, don’t talk about it and let’s BE ABOUT IT!

Hukilau 2009…It’s on baby!
