I'm heading to the Ti this week. Thank God, I'll have a place now to soak up the rum.

By the way, my previous visit to the Ti the time before my adventure with the gang from Palm Springs cost me over $1100. After a pleasant time at the Ti with San Diego Dan and his lovely wife, we headed home, merrily engrossed in deep conversation. Again, Mike Sr. had provided us cigars from his stash. Zombies, Ray Mistakes, etc, etc flowed like a parade of ash trays pounding out Toro, Toro. Somewhere near San Bernadino, a crazed county cop pulled us over and asked if we had been drinking.

We told him we had indeed had a drink or two. To our horror, he began screaming at us and told us we were all liars. He then asked us what we did for a living. We told him we were "teachers." He then paused, and at the very top of his lungs, he yelled, "It's your lucky day TEACHERS!!!!!!!. You better pull over at the next exit and figure out what your going to do.

He then turned and got into his cruiser and drove away. Stunned, I went to Tennessee Ave, pulled over and somewhat shaken that a crazed cop would scream at us and accuse us of being drunk and then DRIVE away.

I promptly ran over a blind curb and broke open my oil pan. Like puke from an old drunk, oil poured freely onto an AM and PM parking lot.

$500 in tow charges and $1100 in repairs afterwards, I thought about the true cost of those five drinks at Tiki Ti.

What a bargain.

Imagine if I lived in Ft. Lauderdale. The plane ticket, hotel costs, rentals, and everything else would have broke me totally.

Cheers!!!!
