Ahh, yes, well, then, the contiguous States...

Actually, I heard any number of Hawaiians, native-born and transplants,
use that very term, "back in the States," in reference to what was
happening back on the "mainland" USA.

Here's a photo I took as we were leaving the harbor for our fishing trip.
That's Diamond Head in the background.

Cool pic. But what we really want is a pic of those Hawaiian Tropic girls.

Harry, they just aren't bright enough to figure out that you meant the
mainland.



I'm too lazy to write down to the grammar school reading level of Robbins,
Fritz, Hertvik, Herring, Smithers, et al. Sorry. But I think Lars here was
just fooling a bit in a good-natured way.

Sadly, I'll never be able to duplicate my Miss Hawaiian Tropics babes
encounter, because I cannot remember what aftershave I was wearing at the
time. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Actually, the girls seemed like very nice young ladies, and they were
kidding each other about the "week of perfect posture" they'd just been
through. I was saddened by the fact that they didn't seem to have any sort
of career in mind for the inevitable post-bikini days, and were not
attending college.

Their post-bikini days will involve lots of time in divorce court collecting
half of their sucker...er, umm...I mean husband-to-be's net worth.

But they sure are nice to look at!

So did I. But my cameras were packed away, and I really thought it would
be so tacky and touristy to ask.

Damn. You could have at least snapped a covert pic with your camera phone.

Harry,
This photo is very nice, it actually looks professional. It is possible you
could sell this photo to a surfing magazine or a web site promoting surfing.
I like the way the fishing boat provided you with a perfect opportunity to
snap this photo, very impressive.

If you think Harry's photo "looks professional", and you are "very
impressed" with it, you don't know **** about photography. Also, I take
it you've never been anywhere near the Honolulu/Waikiki/Diamond Head
area? There's so many surfers in the water some days it would be hard
to motor out of the harbors without being that close to them.

Why are you bagging on Harry's photo, bassie?

Consider them as sort of a boat...if you have to ask how much, you can't
afford one!

I thought you were going to say:
"Just another hole to throw money into".

They were too close for that gambit...but I tell you, if I were single,
young and rolling in the dough, I would have taken one home as a souvenir.

Instead, you had to settle for a bottle of sand.

Any truth to the rumor that over on the website:
www.wewonatriptohawaii.com
there's a posting from some young girls reporting they met a "harmless
old man, who reminded a few of us of our grandfathers," at a local
watering hole? :-)

I would bet a bundle that as we older guys look at shapely young women
with
faces like starlets and shimmering hair we often indulge certain
fantasies, but should we catch them stealing a furtive glance at our
hip pockets their typical motivation is wondering how much money is in
the wallet (and/or the bank).

I read that too. Here's more from the website:

"He seemed very nice, but his aftershave was making me ill. He did promise
me a ride, though, in his lobster-style boat if I ever make it out to the
East coast."

More "truths" from this used car salesman?
