Sunday morning chill. Richard Kauhi and the Polynesians.
Talking with a friend who was also at the Kona protest yesterday. We both agree that it seems that every vehicle that the driver was giving thumbs down were huge mostly Chevy and Ford trucks.
6 O’Clock Bad News
It was so hot last night 1pm - 3am. Felt like mid summer Kona. All the fans were a blazing.
After all of those storms in the area all week, it rained for 5 min last night.
I have found that if I try to talk a MAGA person with civility about politics they get mad and raise their voice quickly and don’t have single argument to stand on. They just start attacking. It’s everyone else’s fault
A throw back to ‘74. These guys were good. I got to know Alan Naluai in the late 80s when he played as a bar I managed in Waikiki. His Brother Clayton would sit in now and then. He had so much aloha. Old school.
Finally back at work. Difiierent direction. I injured my shoulder almost a year ago, had a reverse replacement last July, rehabbed, went back to the Kitchen in December, shoulder couldn’t handle, went out agan in Jan. Just back today in Guest Service. Lobby and hospitality room greeter. Easy

Sunset obscured by whatever weather is out there that we didn’t get. There’s clouds look like a dinosaur
Hawaii has its own oligarch problems. Oprah has 2100 acres on Maui, Larry Ellison Owns Lanai, Steve Case has 5700 acres on Kauai, Mark Zuckerberg has 1450 acres on Kauai, Marc Benioff has 600 acres on HI Island. Michael Dell onws the 4 Seasons Hualaai and a huge estate. Many more have estates.
Going back and re watching Luke Cage. I last watched it years ago on Netflix. I have the DVD set too
The ignorance of youth. Riding a powered scooter on a busy street, looking down at her phone mounted on the handlebar wearing no protection. Maybe she’s lucky, but the combination of gravity and pavement are very unforgiving
This is the earliest available recored Hawaiian song; Aloha `Oe by Nani Alapai and Henry Clark released on Columbia records in 1911. An earlier recording in 1898 by Berliner Gramophone on wax cylinders is lost. Most Hawaiian music was recorded on the continent, there were 100s of records by 1920.
