No worries Mark. Like I said, if the East Bithlo shopping news gave me an award that would help me in my field, I'd have it up there as well. My wife is in the media business, until this summer the newspaper business, and we both get a kick out of how different publications handle these kind of things. Usually you'll notice that the winners of the "Best Of" type of awards are coincidence, coincidence, also advertisers in the special "Best Of" insert!

I'm glad TikiTom followed my lead and just hired someone for the event. I find that once you get beyond 4 or 6 people on the other side of the bar, you find yourself devoting your entire time to the bar and none to having a good time. And waking up the next morning and finding a clean bar downstairs is also a sweet dividend.

If you ever find yourself in the Brevard area, definitely give us a holler. I'd love for you to check out The Storm Shelter:
