    Aloha Big Toe!  Thanks for the add, brother.  I have been a big fan of your work, but after sitting in front of "Rubys Dilemma" at Frankies Tiki Room on Wednesday, I thought touch base.  And yeah, if you ever make out to the heartland, let us know. We have some vicious car shows.  We don't have much in the way of tiki establishments, but we make some mean drinks and we can throw an umbrella in them! Thanks again. Stay cool.
