Staten Island, N.Y. tiki culture lovers wanted!

Hello,

My name is Jodi Reifer and I'm the entertainment reporter for the Staten Island Advance newspaper.

I'm writing a story about tiki cutlure and would love to speak to a Staten Islander who enjoys the bars, music, clothes or collects.

If you're not from Staten Island, but know someone, please pass along my contact info.

Thanks. Any help would be much appreciated,

p.s. I'm usually in the office from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (M-F) but can hang out or come in early to speak to someone. Thanks again

Jodi, how about an ex-Staten Islander? I grew up by Bement & Bosworth (a couple blocks from Pal Joey's), and attended PS 45, IS 61, Richmondtown Prep & COSI. Some of the other NYC area TCers have been to Jade Island, but they're mostly frightened by Bridges & Ferrys.

I'll bounce the question off of my baby sister & see if she knows of anyone.

Hey,

You don't happen to work with Jeff Harrell? He's one of my old Montclair Times boys.
