GROG still waiting for Jeff BigTikiDude to post his requesite " Sorry I can't make it because I will be at (insert surf band name here)." Grog, actually I will be there. and there is a surf band playing, but its not a band that I am crazy about. and they are playing way up in the Malibu Hills at a winery(yuk). I'm still waiting for an excuse from you as to why you didn't come to Tiki Tena's Surf/Luau with Kirby. ask him about it, you missed a great one, and surf bands Outterwave and The Ghastly Ones.

I mean, these pieces are almost 2 or 3 months old! Damn! Actually, if you weren't at the Big ol Tiki Bash it's all new! Oh well, I will debut some pieces at the NEXT art show (that is if I don't get all drunk and dance sloppy and embarrass the host!) Hmmmmmmm.......seeing as that is a given, this may be my only show at the Tonga Hut!

Here's the latest from Atomikitty and the Coconut Monkey Project: For all of you who are sick of seeing paintings of Coconut Monkeys, (weirdos) I will have TWO NEW non-monkey paintings to premier at the Tonga Hut Art Show. For all of you who are NOT sick of paintings of Coconut Monkeys, (the hep, cool kids) I will have the originals on display and for sale, as well as a fresh batch of lovingly hand framed prints ready to take home with you! Thanks for all the drink suggestions for the 'Little Lost Drinky' . . .I'm feeling inspired. . . :wink: SEE YOU SATURDAY!!!! [ Edited by: atomikitty 2007-09-26 16:08 ]

I may even wear a suit! :wink: Well, this derned IMAGE UPLOAD glitch is frustratin! So i'm gonna try and post something here... JUST FOR THIS SHOW i decided to do a little special something for all you Mug Aficionados (or TikiSnobs-as they're calling them lately :D) For my "Talking Palms and Pineapple Kings" exhibit last year, Holden was gracious enough to donate some open line tiki mugs to give to the patrons when they purchased some art. He was even kind enough to allow me to design a special decal commemorating the show on the backs! They were originally offered in a 4-pack and my friend Marcus Pizzuti sculpted them! I just decorated em! Here they are! (I'm only showing the front of them for now until image upload is fixed...then you can see the roundabout on my art thread.. This first one is named "the Watcher" this second one is called "the Guardian" This one is "Keeper of the Flame" and this last one is named "the Mystic" A Moai/Marquesan/Ku/and Fisherman God all transformed (for better or worse) and ready for your bulging eyes to drink in! Seeing as this will be a very Special Evening (Special, like cool,not "special ed") I will have these and mug prints at a SPECIAL TONGA NIGHT price! ALSO...to REALLY BLOW YER FACE OFF! I'll be bringing my painting in progress "the King of Cannibal Island" for the TikiMagazine Art Show! A little Sneak Peek of the show,but not really, cause it's only half done! :D THREE MORE DAYS! :D

Chongolio injecting a little humor in the least humorous Tonga Hut thread to date. Thanks dude! Actually, if you go though the thread from the beginning, there were some stabs at humor, just nothing that took off and everybody ran with. The jokes are just hanging there-----like wallpaper.

R RevBambooBen Tiki Socialite Huntikington Beach Joined: Nov 12, 2002 Posts: 7942	R RevBambooBen Posted posted on Fri, Sep 28, 2007 7:24 PM A recent hypothesis by Andrew C. Gallup and Gordon Gallup of the University of Albany states that yawning may be a means to keep the brain cool. Mammalian brains operate best when they are cool. In an experiment, he showed several groups of people videos of other people yawning. When the subjects held heat packs up to their heads while viewing the videos, they yawned often. But when they held cold packs up to their heads or breathed through their noses (another means of brain cooling), they did not yawn at all. [5] [6]
