Hakalugi...... Huh? I'm not quite sure of what exception you are taking.

Maybe I did confuse the statement as I was referring to the term "Tiki Bar" in general By watered down versions. I meant the Type of tiki bars that are not tiki bars but are calling themselves Tiki Bars and this includes Margarita-ville BTW. We have at least 12 tiki bars in Sarasota County NOT counting the new TV IB&G and non of them are worth mentioning but ALL of them are making good money and are calling themselves tiki bars and playing jimmy buffet and reggae serving shitty drinks with lousy service and did I mention they are making truckloads of money, worthy or not they are popular or perhaps I should refer to them as "More Prolific" as to avoid exception, and there are more of those kinds of tiki bars than our kind of tiki bars and that is a fact. All along just Florida's EXTENSIVE East & West coastline not to mention the other states with coastlines and the Caribbean... and my point was they economically sustainable and viable serve the masses of tourists but don't really count....I also believe they are the "tiki Bars" most of the general population is familiar with and think about when you say "Tiki Bar" these days, they are the ones I was referring to. Hope that helped clarify.

well.....self censorship is sill a form of censorship BUT I am a smart-ass at times and it's does not translate all that well in posts every so often. I was speaking "off the Cuff" with that.. that's why I threw a question mark behind it and went on to explain that I thought I understood the reasoning behind the choice to re-package the discussion. I certainly understood from you earlier post that, of course, you were not being censored....

Beach Bum Scott - Since this topic is "Re-Railed" to another thread....I am SO looking forward to getting back out there! I am in Denver every so often and I get a few jobs In Co. Springs at the Broadmoor every year and it is one of my favorite places on the planet! I have been stung at "The Bee" more often than I care to remember! Here is a friend of mine feeling the sting of a yard at the Golden Bee.

I'm still gonna visit the Castaways but next time I'm out I would love to visit your bar. Danka!

I'm pretty much exhausted on this one but... will bounce all future comments over to the other thread... Peace !
