OK what a strange word for the topic title. "Zihuatanejo" not found in the usual dictionary and Wikipedia points to a place in Mexico. Nope not going near Mexico anytime in my life. It's a dangerous country.
1. What could use a good shining?
Simple: My car!
2. When have you recently had to stand in a slow-moving line?
It's a good thing I rarely ever go to rock concerts or any kind of live show. Way, way back I remember standing in a long line just to buy tickets at the Blaisdell Center to go see The Rolling Stones at the now condemned Aloha Stadium back in 1998. I also remember standing in long lines to go see most of the Star Wars movies.
Today I won't go to any concerts because in addition to the regular state of Hawaii taxes, I certainly don't want to pay for the Ticketmaster taxes either. What do people get out of Ticketmaster? The whole damn thing is a scam.
A few years ago I had to wait in a line at Satellite City Hall to register the car. Missed the mail in deadline.
3. What was your favorite childhood counting-out game to determine who was it?
I vaguely recall a game called "Duck Duck Goose"... while it was not a counting game I think after you got called "goose" you had to chase the kid who did the "duck duck goose" countdown thing. I'm kind of blurred on this, since it has been decades since I was a kid.
4. Is anything feeling thinner these days?
- My wallet
- Not me
5. What do you know about Maine?
My friend Lisa is from Maine and she tells me it is one of those states that have an extremely high percentage of white people and not much ethnic diversity.
An interesting thing I know about Maine is that the former Hawaii Superferry now known as The Cat sails between Maine and Nova Scotia, Canada during the summer season.
The Superferry looks the same as it did when I rode it in 2007 from Oahu to Maui and back.
