..that on pages 42,84, & 88 in the "Book of Tiki" the restraunts use a cartoon images of native polynesians getting drunk and fighting? I know alcohol was the downfall of many of my native american brothers, but you figure the cartoonists would have had better judgement on what images they drew. True it was back when people didn't care for being "P.C.". By today's standards the lucious native girls wouldn't have their breasts exposed and drunk overweight men having thier feet tickled would be considered some form of perversion (which most things in the lone star state is considered).
But my point is, if the cartoonists of the time drew the islanders having a good time it would be one thing, but showing what really happens when you drink sometimes takes the fire out of the preverbial cannon.

I don't know, maybe because i'm an artist i read into things too much.
I'm going to go pour me one.
