Post by Bob Roberts »

Other than Somewhere Over the Rainbow and Wonderful World, what are your favorites from this Hawaii'an gem?

"White Sandy Beaches of Hawaii" always takes me there and "Henehene Kou'aka" always makes me smile.

I know the voices in my head aren't real, but sometimes they have really good ideas....

I'm with you.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

My dentists two daughters used to work for him and have both moved to HI. When they were there I could tell when it was there turn to choose the music. After they had left I had an appointment and when I sat in the chair Iz was playing. I made a comment about him and they were surprised I had heard of him and said it was one of the mix CD's the girls had left and they all loved him. Makes going to the dentist a little more enjoyable.

I like pretty much everything too. I guess White Sandy Beach and Kuhio Bay would be favorites right now. :D

Yes I can post. You should be able to post. What happens though is that when I try to get out of the spot I posted at and hit the back arrow, because I can't see another way, it resends.

I can't even read posts, let alone make a comment. The graphics screw everything up.

The graphics are annoying. If it is a post with a bunch of smiley faces I will usually stay away. Are you going to bn through safari or an app?
