I hate to piss on my own post, but I received alotta shit from my wife Sally for "promoting" what she delicately referred to as a "lame-ass dog & pony show put on for a buncha haole tourists".I don't plan on attending the luau this year but when I do, I don't go for cultural enlightenment. I go to pig out, get drunk and watch the "spectacle" and party in an atmosphere that's much more familiar and comfortable than...say...SEA WORLD! Think of it as a Polynesian version of Oktoberfest and you'll be alright. [ Edited by: Shipwreckjoey on 2004-07-10 15:56 ]
