SugarCaddyDaddy,

Yeah! Great Pictures.

The guy in the picture with me is KC from Beachdude Inc. A great guy and purveyor of fine koa and rattan furniture as well as tiki this and that.

Almost forgot to show The Bash Shirt! Sorry if it came out a little fuzzy. I was in a hurry because I'm barbecueing and need to get back to the grill..

Ok, that does it -- next year I have got to go.

My god that looked like fun...wow! Hey - where can I get some official Tiki Central stickers for the MD/DC/VA Tiki Regalia on October 12th?

:drink:

How much fun was that?!!! Aren't SugarCaddyDaddy and the Mrs. are the cutest! I just wish I had gotten a chance to mingle a bit more with the TC crowd. I couldn't wait for the pictures, by the look in EVERYONE'S (Glowing) eyes, the crowd was def·i·nite·ly under Tiki's spell! :tiki: Aloha - Dawn

Aloha Sugar,
Great pics!!! My right eye has a broken blood vessel. The left one is from the rum!

Holden,
Thanks for hosting what will live on in legend as the Tiki Event of the Century.


Chiki Tiki and his big Tiki Mug carving. It's the coolest.

The Sexy women of Tiki Central

Hanford Lenmore, our Fearless Leader. Truly an honor to meet you, Hanford. Shelley and I enjoy the board very much. Tiki Central and its denizens keep us busy and entertained. More fun than a barrel of monkeys. A bottomless Maitai on the luau that is the World Wide Web.

BC DaDa, an interesting cat. You have to post some info on your magazine, Dude.

Debbie Bullat, (Madam Bong), note the Punchy shirt.

OC regular Paul, a frequent reveler in So Cal Events ( Paul I'm sorry what do you post under) I also got to meet Dawn Tiki, but I didn't get a picture.

And finally Holden (Smog Breather), a dedicated and tireless proponent of Tiki. Long hours in the gravel pit of commerce have not dulled his vision of a Tiki-er tomorrow. Though lonliness and privation are his constant companions, the true path to the future of Tiki lies firmly in his grasp. We can learn a lot from his hard work, perserverence and sacrifice. Holden we tip our Mai Tai to you.
Mahalo,
Al

Hey Gecko,

I was lookin' nice cuz my man Atomic Cocktail made that outfit for me. He also made the chinese food pattern shirt he was wearing. Other owners of Atomic's aloha wear include Sven and Bamboo Ben.

However Atomic cannot take credit for Sven's shirt in this photo.

Gecko,
If you liked Vintage Girl in that outfit, you should have seen her out of it. Hubba Hubba!!!!.
Al

Oops! That must've been my cousin, Naughty Nurse Trixie making a "brief" appearance. I think she got a little confused and thought she was at Tease-o-rama for a while. :oops:

AL.... Now how in da hell did u get to see Naughty Nurse Trixie without Mrs.Shely around!! U lucky DOG!! How does this local boy get to meet this NURSE? I'm feeling a little blue from my uncle's coconut milk and chicken soup!

Gotta get somadat Atomic gear on my back!

Honestly everyone looked nice including that cool cool Hawaiian punch shirt that da Mrs Bong had on. That was cute.

Aloooooha

Thank's for the props Gecko. That mug was a mutha to carve. Once I tipped over that heavy-a$$ log, I had to hollow it out. Must have weighed 700lbs +.

You all suck.

Okay, not really. I'm just jealous that I couldn't be there... looks like quite a ride. I was busy getting my monkey on at Tease-o-rama...

DANGIT!

:)

Me, a tipsy Kraut, and Eileen.

Sven, Randy, Mike, Rebecca, Martin, Eileen.

Quick, someone get help! The volcano's swallowing him!

Good Lawd have mercy that looked fun. Its a blast putting the faces to the names at T.C. I recognize King Kukulele from the Las Vegas Grind a few years back. That dude is pure comedy and one of my favorite memories from that event. You have to love anybody that can wear a grass skirt and heckle gambling rednecks
