If people are looking to crash in a house - it looks like we have a very minimally furnished "psuedo tiki" house available for rent that week... in fact we were thinking of working with da owners to turn it into a full time vacation rental - and kinda make it like the Tiki Central clubhouse of Las Vegas? There are 2 Leroy Schmalz tikis, another unnamed tiki + a couple of Cherry Capri tiki paintings and a host of tiki mugs (so you don't have to travel with mugs...), fork and spoons, etc... it's only a mile and a half or so from the strip and the peppermill and 4 miles or about 10 mins to the new tiki bar. would anyone be interested in that? |

Gas is $1.68 in Lakeside, near San Diego, and $1.78 down the street from my place. Definitely getting to the point where it'll even be worth the drive when you factor in time and wear & tear on your car. Ben, the place down the street from you is an ARCO station, right? |

Ben...Buzzy, and all you other great peps, I am truly sorry. I won't be able to come up there to support you guys on Thursday after all. My boss first told me I could take Thurs - Fri. off to do this, now he tells me that I "have" to work late up in LA, and do some pick up shots for some B-roll that we are doing. By the time we finish shooting and edit, it will be too late to drive out. He said I could take Friday off?? I'm like, what the f**k good does that do me?? I'll make it to Frankie's this month, or next, but it won't be this Thursday.... Have fun! Buzzy drink one of those hairy lady drinks for me brother. |

Aloha Friend's! The Grand Opening of Frankie's was great, and the place is hands-down the BEST tiki bar EVER! Best thing about it is all my Tiki Artist Buddies are represented there, as it should be. Naturally, the main focal point of the whole place is the most Off-Da-Hook tiki that C'All has Ever carved...

It will be quite an honor to become the alchoholic I've always wanted to be in this fine establishment!

Nice work Al! Could someone take a picture of my masks? It doesn't look I'll be traveling to Vegas anytime soon, if at all. There is one on the Men's Room door and one on the Ladies. Many Mahalos! Proud to be a small part of tiki history in Las Vegas, and best wishes to all at Frankie's for a successful future! |
