Since moving to the east side of the big island I've realized two things missing (actually three but Mix 92.7 filled that void): no decent pet stores and no decent computer stores!
So what do you think about this combination: A computer parts and supply plus pet store with an emphasis on fish?
Both kinds of hobbyists are kinda geeky anyway but both are hardcore about their hobbies.
When I was in Honolulu I actually thought about mixing up store ideas like topless barber shops! Hey honey I have to get my weekly haircut again. Say miss can you cut a bit more off the front, no you can leave my glasses on.
Or combination hardware/lingerie shop where both spouses can spend the entire day without feeling guilty (actually the Hilo Sears did in fact put their lingerie department within two steps of their hardware, lawn/garden departments. Hey honey do you think this black lace teddy looks good with that Craftsman Chain saw? or hmmm racy thong underwear or safety goggles?
So with a computer/fish store, you can either select between an aquarium or an aquarium screen saver or get both in one convenient location! Better yet put your 17-inch LCD monitor behind an empty glass aquarium filled with water and watch your screensaver thru the glass. Whadda you mean it ain't real...das one real aquarium right in front of you you friggin bastard.
