Unfortunately, a couple of weekends ago I was in the midst of an outdoor project that went bad very quickly and I shattered my left arm which has required multiple surgeries. A very unplanned and unwelcome event which has left me sticking close to home for awhile. I am sorry to miss the festivities. Have a great time! Karbora

K Karbora Grand Member (5 years) Orlando, Florida Joined: Oct 11, 2005 Posts: 104	K Karbora Posted posted on Sun, Jan 14, 2007 8:16 AM Absolutely...I am able to confirm that you can indeed shake and enjoy a refreshing cocktail with one arm. It's the limited mobility that has me "anchored" for now. I know there will be extreme fun...so have some for me :) Karbora

K Kanekila Member Safety Harbor, FL Joined: Aug 07, 2004 Posts: 185	K Kanekila Posted posted on Mon, Jan 22, 2007 2:03 PM The Tiki Carving Jam was a blast! Many, many BIG MAHOLOS to Chris and Elizabeth for their gracious hospitality, and also for they're VERY gracious hospitality in allowing Haole Kats to once again crash their pad while we played down there at the Mai Kai, our luau-bar-mitzvah (really), and at the Jetsetter Lounge! The next time they throw one of these, try to go, as you will love their place there in Boca, you will drink and eat like kings/queens, and you will see some amazing artists at work carving, and learn a lot in the process. Mahalo once again to Loki and Stumpgrinder for a wonderful, wonderful time. Kanekila

It was good to see everyone. Loki and Stumpgrinder were supreme hosts and deserve standing O for the job they did. Fantastic music, food and people. The Seagrave was a true highlight - imagine an old roadster and Semi having unholy relations - truly unique!! Thanks again.

In the mean time, it was a great event and the best part is getting everyone together. Thanks to the Haole Kats for playing some impromtu tunes. No better way to carve when you have live Hawaiian music jammin in the background. Thanks to wplugger for bringing the Seagrave...it was a highlight for sure...

Q Quince_at_Dannys Member Command Records International HQ Joined: Mar 29, 2004 Posts: 197	Q Quince_at_Dannys Posted posted on Thu, Jan 25, 2007 10:19 PM First, let me thank you, Chris and Elizabeth for being gracious hosts and sharing your fantastic home for the Tiki Jam. Second, a thank you to ALL of the Florida Ohana--Chip and Andy, Tiki Kiliki, Pia, Haole Kats, Papa Bear, etc, etc,--getting to meet all of you and hang out Friday and Saturday really made our trip. We look forward to seeing you all again at the Hukilau. And if you ever make your way to Minnesota (yeah, ridiculous--but come camping with us in the middle of June someday and you'll get a taste of why we put up with all the scheisse weather!) we'll be sure to show you a good time. We missed the live carving; Varla and I were a little--ahem--under the weather Saturday, so these are all backyard-hangin' out-type pitchers. Exciting Mai Kai pics and more can be found at http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=22532&forum=4&9 awwww!

TT Tiki Taki Member St Pete Joined: Nov 15, 2006 Posts: 4	TT Tiki Taki Posted posted on Sun, Jan 28, 2007 1:22 PM By the way, earlier today I was trying to put into practice some of the techniques I learned from watching Aloha Station carve with power tools at the party. I was working on a slightly smaller scale, using my new Black n Decker rotory tool. I was making great progress and the tool was working great.... right up until the moment that it burst into flames. Huh.
