Hawaiians love their reggae too. In fact, there's a reggae only radio station here. Just as a pro tip, if there's a steel drum, it's reggae. If there's a ukulele or slack key guitar, it's "island".


Admittedly, I didn't remember steel drums, but yeah, it seemed more reggae to me, other than I was pretty sure it was a Hawaiian song...which was why I was unsure. I thought reggae was pretty much carribean only.

Carl is allergic to yellow cheese but not white cheese. Carl used to only be able to drink pop from a glass bottle, because he was allergic to pop in cans or plastic. When they phased out glass, he travelled the state stockpiling glass 8 packs of his favorite. When Carl ran out of glass, he found he was <poof> magically cured of his allergy to plastic bottles. (he claimed they must have changed the 'formula' of the plastic in the bottles) The wedding in Hawaii was the weekend of the ISU/UNI game, and he was laughing at the fact that I was struggling to get the game going on cyclones.tv and finally asked who ISU was even playing...but once he found out, started talking **** like he was UNI superfan. I told him to shut his face, since he didn't even know UNI was playing. Carl won't use a pink towel if that's the only towel left in the bath towel pile. Carl doesn't wear shoes unless he's required to.

I am not Carl.


Pantsy, I don't think 00 likes being called Carl. Let's stick with Carlie.
 
I can see if i can find an actual cd around Town here if you want? When would you need it by?


Mid august? If you find one, that'd be cool. I was looking at buying an MP3 of "Reggae Hits: The Best of Butch Helemano & The Players of Instruments" and burning to a CD, but that's kinda janky. A real recording would be better.

Let a fella know, if you don't find anything, no bigs, but if you do, that's sweet.

I'll keep an eye out for something. You'd be surprised the Hawaiian based things you can find around here. If I find it, you may have to trust me with a mailing address though. I won't give it to Brooklyn Cowgirl, but I can't promise with her Gary Oldman friend.
 
Hey, cowgirl...something interesting... Take a look at how pantsy handled that when I said I would really appreciate something he could help me with. He didn't ask for airline tickets, he didn't say he would do something, and then start backpedalling, he just said he'd see what he could do...and then he f'ing delivered...like a boss. Send the guy a pie already, huh?

I laughed.

Also, remember that you would get both a child deduction and mortgage interest deduction makes budget numbers go from ok to fantastic.
 
Give it time. It took me a month and a half from start to finish of my job process.
Oh, definitely. Especially since this is a job I want.

A friend/co-worker at a different job we're working this summer together is the one who referred me/helped me land the interview I got. She got hired 5 days after her interview at this place, but that's in a different department than what I interviewed for. I was hoping I would hear back just as quickly as she did, but I'm not getting discouraged just because I haven't yet.

I at least have a temporary/seasonal job in my field to tied me over for the next couple months.

Are you still working around Ross? Had a fun time taking Z there last week.
 
I've recently been renting a TV series called "The 4400" from Netflix. This was one of the suggested movies, based on what I've rented in the past. Ummmmmmmmmm?
