Nice! I will be getting that "Aloha" turquoise shirt from Mai-Kai. I've been wearing a lot of tropical themed shirts to work these days to cheer me up. It makes my commute less Dantean.

You are a man of wealth and taste!
Are you by any chance a fan of the exotica genre - Les Baxter, Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, et. al.?
I love exotica! Not wealthy! As a teen (starting at age 15 in 1968) I was a radio announcer in a Nebraska-small-town radio station when it was on an MOR (Middle of the Road) format, and since I was in high school, I was assigned the evening shift starting at 5:30 PM until closing (midnight or 10 PM depending on the seasons) which included a heavy dose of easy listening music in a segment called "Dial M for Music" that would last as long as two hours and featured instrumental music almost exclusively. There were many LPs marked for that segment in the radio station's library, and I played many exotica albums along with Mantovani, Percy Faith, Ferrante and Teicher, David Rose, and some film music (I remember the "Sayonara" lp being on the shelf). Also some jazz and Big Band. We were allowed to include a few vocals during that show (maybe 2 or 3 per show), so I also got to know many singers that at my age would have usually been unknown to me. I learned to love a lot of music that my peers sneered at.
