The Road to Hawaii A man was walking along the beach and found a bottle. He looked around and didn't see anyone so he opened it. A genie appeared and thanked the man for letting him out. The genie said, "For your kindness I will grant you one wish, but only one." The man thought for a minute and said, "I have always wanted to go to Hawaii but have never been able to because I'm afraid of flying and ships make me claustrophobic and ill. So I wish for a road to be built from here to Hawaii." The genie thought for a few minutes and said, "No, I don't think I can do that. Just think of all the work involved with the pilings needed to hold up the highway and how deep they would have to be to reach the bottom of the ocean. Think of all the pavement that would be needed. No, that is just too much to ask." The man thought for a minute and then told the genie, "There is one other thing that I have always wanted. I would like to be able to understand women. What makes them laugh and cry, why are they temperamental, why are they so difficult to get along with? Basically, what makes them tick?" The genie considered for a few minutes and said, "So, do you want two lanes or four?"
Good one Joe Riley. I think that is a pretty good story. I just read it to a friend of mine, and I had to explain the last part,,,sigh! Thick as a brick! Anyway thanks for the laugh!

LOL! Chuckle. Hawaiian Jam: (image is from http://contoh-stiker.blogspot.com/2013/04/shaved-ballsshirtsshaved-balls.html) (image is from http://www.hawaiiansunproducts.com/). We can get this on satle year round for 1.99. It's very good I like it and love it with my toast every once in a while. Sugars a bit high numbers, so I eat it sparingly. We have Sunday ads for Walgreens, CVS & Don Quiote our local supermarket. If and when you visit, be sure to check our newspapers ads on Sunday for good sales locally!

I would like to talk about "The Beach Boy Party" CD. I ordered this CD on Amazon,and it came the other day. The music was recorded in 1963, with ukulele accompaniment. When it was remastered in 1999, the steel guitar was added. When I read the liner notes, I was amazed to learn that this was the only time the group had recorded their music, and the first and maybe only group picture where they were all together. Within a month of the original session on the Waikiki beach, at the Outrigger Canoe Club, one member of the group, Panama, became sick and died. He had been seriously ill at the time of the recording. It is a wonderful treasure. Here is "Cafe Lights" by Panama. (He is sitting on the sand, on the right.)
