That's me in the photo and article from the LA Weekly. I'm not sobbing over anything you folks here are saying (and I already received a very nice apology from ONE of you--thanks!), but I am sobbing over how sad it is that some people cannot accept the idea that people have secret (and not-so-secret) passions in life. My entire life does not revolve around Disneyland. Just as, I trust everyone here doesn't spend every waking moment in Tiki-land. And yes, I get a little overboard--WHEN I AM WITH FELLOW ENTHUSIASTS. Tiki fans? Hey--I am happy to bring Tiki stuff to share. And I enjoy seeing what you have or learning something new (Humuhumu gave me some timely info). As far as my "ordering around" the Disneyland staff--I was unhappy that they weren't as prepared as they shoulda been. You Shag fans were SO NICE about the whole thing, though. Also--the Disneyland staffers there that day were mostly known to me. So just think of it as if you were "ordering around" the staff at your favorite Tiki Bar. AND...don't believe everything you read in the papers! Frixample, I would never have dissed Trek fans. The "quote" I gave at the end...I never said. The entire article is filled with stuff like that. I knew that this would probably happen if I talked to a reporter--but hope springs eternal.
