Mayor Wright Housing and Kuhio Park Terrace.

I know those 2 housing projects are affectionately referred to by some of its tenants as "Hollywood" and "Vegas." But what I want to know is,.... which one is which?

It's a too easy joke that borders on stale humor. The best I could react is a tiny chuckle.

It was basically Rick trying to do his best Dave Barry imitation, and falling flat. Oh well, if it was that easy to emulate Dave's humor, then a whole bunch of us would likewise have nationally syndicated columns, a Pulitzer prize or two in the office, and best-selling books to our credit.

Even better!Shhhh.....don't "out" me on this one.

So, regarding Hamada's column, referenced earlier - I smiled at it, but didn't laugh out loud. It seemed to me like an easy joke to make, but he played it very well. Well enough that I plan to read more of his columns, as I don't really know his writing yet.

If you mean who I think you mean, it's pit bull, not bulldog.

Even better!

Leo, you got some kind of juice to swing that one!

LOL! Be nice to Aunty. I hate seeing good lumpia go to waste.

Don't worry about that, if she throws it at me I'll be quick to catch it like a sea lion catching herring. Her lumpia is to die for.

The one gutted by fire was probably caused by a burning body.
The two with mechanical problems were probably caused by a bodies stuck in the pulleys

Oh Lord have mercy. I turned on the 9pm KFVE news, as usual, and they were showing the end of the UH-Fresno State baseball game. The first thing I saw was the jersey of a FS player with the team name filling the screen -- Bulldogs.

Re: Former Bishop Estate trustee busted

Auntie...there's just something so wrong with this. Is the 2 year time frame because it's public housing? Yep. Time for a separate thread.

Indeed. Two years is abso-frickin-lutely inexcusable.
Auntie moved this discussion over to this thread.

The parts have been ordered. They come from the Conus. It will take approximately two years for completion of repairs.

Hey...doesn't HT have a particular bulldog with special expertise in elevator issues...?

If you mean who I think you mean, it's pit bull, not bulldog. An honor bestowed by TutuSue in this post, where she wrote:

You're amazing LN. You're like a pit bull when it comes to advocacy for the underdog! BTW, I mean that as a great, big compliment!

Anyway, the pit bull/bulldog was thinking the same thing about Auntie Lynn's elevators too. Auntie, if you want to start a new thread on the problem, I'm sure several of us pit bulls here would like to try to help. I know this one would.

Re: Former Bishop Estate trustee busted

Going get worse. Only get one elevator working in each building. It's a fire and safety hazard. Imagine all the families living there. What if a fire broke out?

Re: Former Bishop Estate trustee busted

okay, so some of you didn't care for rick hamada's article. actually, i thought it was hilarious! but, that's just my opinion. anyway, after having lunch at down to earth, kailua, decided to have a look see at gj's home. yep the remnants of dripping eggs can still be seen on his cute plantation style home.

Rick grates some people the wrong way (mostly Democrats) and you gotta know him personally to understand him. He like myself shoots from the hip. Most times we're on the mark, however there are those days where we should be shooting from our mouths because sometimes what we feel is right isn't in the eyes of others.

I know Rick, he knows me, we've both worked together, shouted at each other, and laughed together. Mostly shouting though But you're either gonna love the guy or hate him but never have no opinion about him.

He's an interesting fellow to share thoughts with and he has a lot of thoughts and he loves Audi's.
