Did you notice in the tiki gallery that there were two Mai Tiki carvings. I thought that was a little weird that they made it all the way to Hawaii.

'course, to be fair, gotta mention:

...and the Americans who will get anything tatooed to them in Japanese/Chinese characters.

i love asking "What do you think your tattoo says?" Followed by a "Well, here's what it really says..."

hell, even some non word, graphic design only tattoos speak loudly and also say :
"at the end of the day this is another ugly boy!"

among many others, i will never understand the appeal of a mad skowling clown tattoo...
