MP mrs. pineapple Member Joined: May 12, 2003 Posts: 611	MP mrs. pineapple Posted posted on Wed, Jul 28, 2004 4:31 PM OK - Mr. Pineapple (TikiBot) and I are debating whether we should throw our hula skirt into the ring and offer to host the NORCAL ITD celebration. We, very very, sadly can't make it to the Lagoon Room, (sob,sob) So, if you can't join em, serve some other people drinks, I always say! By a show of hands, who in NOR CAL would come to El Cerrito and help disturb the neighbors? would you bring food? rum? a ukelele? We just wacked the neighbor eating weeds, and we have cool tiki torches, a new tiki bar (Thanks Ben!) and Otto said he'd show some slides or help do something to make it "official" We'll unload our wedding tumblers, and spend the next day mopping sticky stuff off the floor! show of hands? xoxxo mrs. pineapple, (offering without the final consent of tikibot!)

MP mrs. pineapple Member Joined: May 12, 2003 Posts: 611	MP mrs. pineapple Posted posted on Wed, Jul 28, 2004 6:51 PM I think we'll probably do evening, since we're both employed these days !! we'll need Saturday-day to prepare. Tikibot suggested tent city on the deck, but I'm not so sure about THAT :) However, if you want to bring a sleeping bag, and crash on our floor, well, I can't promise BLUE pancakes, but, well maybe I could, if you brought blue food coloring? and you can crash on our floor. So, so far, it's me and Cyndy, eating cheesy beer cheese, and Otto with some slides...?

We need a little more interest for me and the missus to get out of bed early on a Saturday and clean the house. Whaddaya say? Are we (all) doing this or not? Don't let those SC HT's have all the fun! Who's gonna bring the Jimmy Buffet records???

We've been practicing our grog log skillz, and we found Pussers, for Painkillers!! ) Speak soon or risk spending International Tiki Day alone, at KFC, with a cup of fruit punch and a biscuit. I don't know where that image came from, but it's the most depressing thing I can think of... xoxxo The Pineapples, your proud sponsors of I.T.D-NorCal Style.

Unfortunately I will be working away at the Conga that night !! We'll be doing our part for ITD and serving discounted Mai Tais all night long!! Wouldn't it be cool to have a live feed between the Conga, your party and Poly Pop's ? We could all toast ITD at the same time or something.
MP mrs. pineapple Member Joined: May 12, 2003 Posts: 611	MP mrs. pineapple Posted posted on Fri, Jul 30, 2004 3:28 PM Actually, I think if we don't hear from at least 5 more interested partiers, we're rescinding our offer. Not that we don't love Cindy and her beer cheese fondue (cause we DO!) where are all the NorCal TC peeps? did you not have fun at our last party? what gives?

T Tiki-bot Member Joined: Jun 24, 2002 Posts: 1345	T Tiki-bot Posted posted on Tue, Aug 3, 2004 4:07 PM Due to overwhelming non-interest, ITD in NoCal is officially cancelled (sorry Cyn). Some traditions just weren't meant to last. Someday all those SoCal HT's will realize they are just clinging to the last vestiges of a tired old lifeless tradition. Yes, I'm not happy about missing Al's party.

I would be up for spontaneously gathering at Vic's that Friday night; the eve of my much-needed vacation to Hawaii. Gotta practice drinking mass quantities of mai tai and tiki puka puka.

Seeing as the Mai Tai was invented in Oakland and the Conga is Oaktown's only Tiki Bar, it's a perfect fit !!
