  • Whatever happened to dose guys?

    I haven't been home, since Fasi and Ariyoshi were forever fighting....whatever happened to dems? Are they still alive? Did Fasi (I remember the cowboy hat, and DaBus) ever get himself into the Governor's mansion?

    PS And whatever happened to that Larry Price guy? And to 'thank you, very much' Lex Brodie?

    Frank Fasi and George Ariyoshi are both still alive, but they're old now. And no, Frank never got elected again after he left the mayor's office.

    Larry Price is now on KSSK radio in the mornings with Michael Perry.

    And Lex Brodie is still around. Lately, he ran for, and got elected to, the state Board of Education.

      George Ariyoshi's still around. Here's a photo of him from last month.

      Frank Fasi is still kicking as well, but has been ailing somewhat. I saw him and is wife in January at a private function. There was also a push a few months ago to rename the Honolulu Municipal Building after him, an idea that was debated here at the time.

      Larry Price is still on the air. As was also noted here, he was missing in action for a while, taking time off for some major heart surgery.

      Haven't heard much from Lex Brodie lately, but imagine he's still out there thanking people. (He's no longer affiliated with the service stations that bear his name, however.)

      There is lots of reminiscing about public and media figures to be digested here at HawaiiThreads. Hit that search link, and go to town!

          (OT) KAHU as in the radio station @ 940 AM on the dial? That went away long ago in the early 1980s. They played country music for the longest time. Changed their call letters to KDEO in 1980, went to some strange variety music/talk format then back to country and eventually the owners started a country FM station at 102.7. Later the FM broke off and became Radio Free Hawaii which in turn got sold to a conglomerate and eventually became "Da Bomb." The AM went through a few ownership and call changes and is now owned by another conglomerate playing Hawaiian music. That's it in a quick and dirty nutshell.

          Catch up on local radio and TV stuff, past and present here, here and here.

          We now return this thread back to normal political discussion pertinent to this topic area.

              And do you mean the Red Door, on Lehua Street in Pearl City?

                Oops! Yes, I do....it used to be a Country Western place.

                    I'm not sure what's on the spot where the Red Door was. PCT is now a Dodge dealership. Kelly's is a Harley Davidson dealership and a Wendy's.

                    Now, about France. Is that Bastille thing still there? Ah, the memories!

                          Awwww..you poor thing.

                          Club Hubba Hubba shut down many moons ago. It's boarded up. I had my resturant next to it. Upstairs is still intact for one day to be rented again.

                            Funny...I can see Kelly's as a Harley place. But, as for PCT....what happened to the bonsai?
