I really like a loud Hawaiian shirt (for Jimmy Buffet concerts and such thangs). And I just ordered two of [this](http://www.hotshirts.com/aloha/product_information.asp?number=PH253&variation=&back=yes&dept=94&last=94) bad mamma-jamma, one each for **Lucretia** and me. I can’t wait for summer, man. Aloha! ---

Cool site – but they only had two shirts with flamingos (my totem animal). What’s an aloha shirt without flamingos? ---
