Remember everyone, from 6-7 it's Unkle John's tiki time!

I caught that, too. It was the greatest. I have been real busy with work and projects lately, and have not been paying proper respects lately to the Tiki Gods. It was a strong reminder for me to stop and smell the tikis. In fact, it prompted this visit to TC, my first n a few months. How could I be so blind!

The "tiki bar" Malcolm In The Middle episode was on again tonight. The bar was as great as I had read about here on TC. I loved the baby pool filled with sand that they dug their feet into. They had one round of drinks in coconut mugs and the second in tiki mugs.

I found it really ironic that their paradise ended over the discussion of religion. The atmosphere of the tiki bar brought out a whole new aspect of the parents' relationship, and they began sharing things that they had never discussed in their entire relationship: oh, the magic of rum (or tiki gods). They finally touched upon religion and whether or not there was an after life. That about ruined paradise.

One, when drunk, could read a lot into that and apply it to many threads here on TC. The question about whether or not tiki is pagan, or is it now just a form of re-living a part of our past, or even playing at the role of anthropologist. The tipsy me just thought it was a funny episode and pretty cool to see their bar.

Isn't there an episode of "Malcom" where his parents are desperate to go to a jimmy buffet concert? good to see Hal and Lois come to the good side of tiki.

What an awesome Malcolm episode! It was great how Hal enlisted the kids to convert the garage and then strctly forbade them from entering. I now have a new punishment idea for my kids when they get older :wink:

Now to establish a tiki time in my household...

That was the coolest episode- I would kill for that garage. How could they give that up?
