I just saw the following Twit from Hawaii 247. I guess he is on the road right now and can’t post it to the site this second. I’ll just post it here for anyone traveling in that direction anytime soon.
“Rockslide continue along Hwy 19 north of Hilo. State highway crews are out clearing debris so one lane traffic at times. Drive safely.“
I just had the unpleasant experience of spilling a Pepsi all over my frigging keyboard.
It looks like all the keys are still working. I’ve wiped it down with Clorox wipes. I just hope the inside of the keyboard doesn’t start attracting ants or something now. I’m certainly not going to attempt to take apart this keyboard. The last time I tried that… I couldn’t get the damn keyboard back together the same way it came apart.
ARGH! If I had video of the incident… this would have made my “Today’s KO” list.
#4. Well they always did say that sex sells. This was interesting. Especially the fact that Dave Corrigan, from BIVN, saw a Stinkhorn mushroom on a tour he took later on in the year.
Just as Viagra seems to be a big seller… I still think I could make a killing off stinkhorn mushrooms if the following is true. The fact that it derived around a Hawaii Study has me even more fascinated.
#3. I can only guess the Pahoa Parade Results and Pictures were popular because everyone that was in the parade kept sending their pictures off to other people. I’m really amazed that more then 3,000 people have viewed this post.
I’d like to thank the Pahoa Main Street Association for asking me to be a judge this year and I’m disappointed to hear of some manini charge that Councilwomen Naeole has lodged against PMSA.
