Thanks everyone for your happy thoughts, encouraging stories, and uplifting attitudes. I just really wish we could turn this virtual bar into a real one so I could buy you all a drink. This is what happened to me this week: Had a great interview with my No.1 choice of future employer. They called back next day for round 2. New job is not in the bag but it is looking good. If I get it it will be a great career move and 20% more $$$. :wink: Mrs. Tiki went garage sale shopping in our Virginia neighborhood and came back with a treasure. A selection of old pine cones which were for sale for $5. As a bonus, they threw in the pinecone holder: the most beautiful killer clam shell I have ever seen. Just spectacular. We used to see some bigger in the Marshall Islands where I lived, but none more pretty than this one. Apparently the owner bought it in Indonesia in the early '60s. An old buddy dropped by after his trip from the UK. He knew I liked rum so he brought me a bottle of Lemon Hart Jamaica. Nice.... I know a lot of us and our ohana are hurting right now. Just like many of you told me, keep the faith. This too shall pass and before long we will all be back on our favorite beach mixing and laughing. I can't thank all of my friends on this board who took the time to lift me up when I was feeling down. Please let me know how I can return the favor. Mahalo! Lee See, The Tiki Gods Listen!
