CNN just aired Jack Johnson singing at the Home State Ball. Cool!

We are shaped by the environment we grow up in and President Obama seems to have been shaped very favorably growing up in Hawai'i.

...the idle thought crosses my mind (not technically at all accurate obviously) that a Hawaiian has become President, that at long last Queen Liliuokalani has been vindicated. In a sense, she has, in the same general sense that Dr. Martin Luther King has been vindicated. If thats the right word.

Nice thought, Kalalau. No need to sweat the accuracy for this one time; thanks for putting that concept out there.

It's been reported that somewhere in the neighborhood of 1.8 to 2 million people descended upon DC to witness Obama's swearing in. And there wasn't a single incident/arrest. For me, that shows the healing power that Mr. Obama brings to his presidency.

For those of you who didn't see the Ellen DeGeneres Show today...she wore a duplicate of the hat Aretha Franklin wore to the inauguration! For awhile yesterday it appeared that hat was going to get more media attention than all of Michelle Obama's inauguration day wardrobe put together!

Good party at Senor Billy's last night. No doubt about it, I don't really fit in with the predominant crowd. Must be my soapy smell.

Drank a few margies in honor of President Obama. Shot the breeze with some friends I haven't seen in quite a while. Bands were great. It's a new era.

We in the "Tiki Community" are wondering when the "Aloha President" will put a Tiki Bar in the Whitehouse.

Man, I must have just missed this. My cable went out during the parade :-( and I missed alot of the festivities. I DID get to see the speech, and was really blown away.

Aloha Obama !!!!

The White House's web site has been updated. It appears President Obama is to become a community organizer on steroids!

Executive Order #10: Secretary of State must greet all foreign dignitaries with a Presidential Shaka Sign.

Can't believe a NYT journalist mistook a shaka sign for a "call me" gesture. Only Slick Willy does that.

Leno, during his monologue tonight, said the first thing Obama did during his first full day in office was to pardon Aretha Franklin's hat!

I sure hope someone markets a cheap knock-off of that hat 'cuz I really want one; really, really want one! Maybe I could start a competitive organization to the Red Hat Society! <g>
