tiki road trip 2: spiel this book

the genesis of this work was back in the gay 90's, when The Author's interest in both midcentury and anthropoligical culture resulted in Tiki Awareness. realizing that there were still vestiges of this culture present on the planet, he traveled the globe and documented these locations on a now-decommissioned website.

this website manifested itself as a softcover book in 2003, and now we have the new-n-improved tiki road trip 2!!! buy it here or here. i highly recommend the latest edition... the pop cultural laffs have amped up, from betty grable to dr. zauis.

james is my pal, lol.

here's the little local tie-in... peep the discussion about tiki steak and sub here in baltimore... seems he drove to see if this fine establishment actually had any tikis on it. seems tiki steak and sub is in tha HOOD in franklin square over west baltimore.

oops. well, he lived to tell the tale.
