What I've learned in the medical industry and in business is that I enjoy most the imparting of knowledge and making people enthusiastic to learn it. I will be taking a significant cut in pay, b...

I just discovered Donavon Frankenreiter, sounds a lot like Jack Johnson, even recorded his CD as Johnson's studio. Great acoustic, laid back sound.

Technically, the original was extremely racist in how it portrays the island inhabitants. They supposedley tried to tone that down to nil in the new movie, but a strong case can be made for the original.

Does anyone use Orb.com?

I had great experiences at Felix's, Arnaud's, Mr. B's Bistro, K Paul's. The aquarium is pretty good, and, if this is what you want, plenty of bars and adult establishments for debauchery.
