Fifty to go... - Bilge - Tiki Central

The truth. This reply is so dense it's going to have it's own subtitle: Preaching in the dessert I feel you Lucas. I am the king of boicoted "ignored" posts... then someone somewhere is going to publish some book/review/whatever and steal my credit and say that "Nobody cares for Tiki in Mexico or Spain" suggesting we are primitive brutes who don't appreciate our own culture (which is largely true and happens worldwide). But you know what? Truth will prevail, and 50 years from now, someone somewhere is going to give us the credit we deserve (not). Real uninterested Tiki worshipers... I love tiki, I love Tiki Central. I just want to share my bast knowledge 8) in Latin Tiki and payback all the good things I have learned from this fantastic site. Also, it's a way of documenting (with date) my research so when some cut/paste pirate "journalist" rips me off I can go back to this very post and show that I knew he was going to rip me off. I am NOT a Californian. I am NOT even from the USA! I only have met personally with two tiki aficionados from TC. Naufrago and Bastardo Saffrin. I have NO clique (I like individuals). I sell nothing I just wanna have fun with other open minded smart drunkards with an appreciation for Tiki. Truth is a very few people "get it" to start with. To finish this ramblings, I quote master Zappa as the central scrutinizer by saying: "Who gives a fcuk anyway?" I should change my nickname to "loner tiki" That's also what the idea about "the Tiki Central Diploma" is all about. Giving respect where respect is due. Not for Ego busting (but it helps). Just so people don't get blatantly ignored, ripped off, stepped over etc... Just so Tiki Central stays wild in the digital jungle and no clique takes it over and tries to control it. Sometimes at night, I can't sleep from the fear of thinking that one day I could just be erased from T.C. and my years of research, time and money spent on my subject are lost forever, or even worse! Eaten by journalist vultures for trendy commercial magazines! I am glad that pulling your chain a bit just because (you kind of asked for it) made you say what I wanted to say for a long time but didn't knew how to express. I really wanna join the uncool kids club now! seriously! You say it the way it is! I guess it comes from being Spanish! Ole! Whatever. I get no feedback. I get almost nada for posting in T.C. (except for a few wonderful people, you know who you are :wink: ) that's why I asked myself "Why should I keep doing this? But it's only a rhetorical question because I am never going to leave here, specially if someone want's me to (jeje). So that's the point of this thread, to uncover the awful truth behind the silence conspiracy. Just Say NO to lurkers! Contribute more! Share! Enjoy! Kisses for everyone!
