Khan Tiki Mon's Aloha and Hawaiian Shirt collection. What does Khan Tiki Mon like to wear?
I've been collecting Hawaiian, Aloha, and Tiki shirts for at least 25 years now. I'm going to reach a point in my life where that's all I'm going to wear. Haven't gotten there yet but someday. I went through a phase that lasted several years where I wore my Hawaiian shirts to work everyday. Even when there was 2 feet of snow on the ground I had my Aloha shirt on. I didn't realize the reputation I had acquired. Apparently I was looked upon as sort of the eccentric nerd that always wore Hawaiian shirts. One day I had to make a presentation to upper management about a program I was developing. For the presentation I dressed the part, shirt and tie, and when I got to work my boss said, "You're not wearing a Hawaiian shirt! I already made apologies for you to the VPs." I hated being predictable, and so I stopped wearing the Tiki shirts to work. When I was first married my wife made a bunch of shirts for me from fabric I picked out. I wore tham all the time until I got too fat. I have saved them in my closet and I haven't given up hope that someday I will be wearing them again. Here's my shirt collection.
