HOW’S THAT URBAN LEGEND TREATING YOU? When I was in high school there was a local urban legend that said, “If anyone took raw pork over the Old Pali Highway at night, bad things would happen. Bad…supernatural…things.” The urban legend was passed down through generations of storytelling, circulated through […]
UPDATE APRIL 22, 2014: Okay, I’m 100% healthy. It took me almost two weeks to get fully healthy. That sucked. BUT, it’s a lot shorter that previous bronchitis attacks I’ve had in the past. I remember about three years ago or so, that cough stuck around for a few […]
Captain America 2 was a pretty darn good movie. I knew it was a good movie going in, after many of my fiends, and a few “movie review guys” who I respect, said it would be awesome. I’m going to see it again in a few days with my […]
There’s no “Major” tsunami on the way to Hawaii after an 8.2 Earthquake rattled the shores of Chile. There may be 6 to 8 foot waves that come ashore. Swimmers, boaters, and all water sports “recreationist” are advised to say out of the ocean. No warnings for beach weddings […]
Is Noah a great movie? I honestly don’t know. For the first fifteen minutes that I could tolerate, I can honestly say it was boring and not worth my $11.50. I dozed in and out for the first fifteen minutes, and then I finally got up, left my friends, walked […]
Waimanalo Beach…and the Pacific Ocean. EXPENSIVE WEDDINGS IN HAWAII One of the more common questions I get asked on a daily basis is, “How can I save money on my dream wedding?” If you’re looking for an answer worth a pot of gold, you’re not going to find one. I […]
A LITTLE BUSY HERE Hey everyone, I’m just a bit busy this week, so I won’t be responding to emails as quick quick as I usually do. I’m usually very good in regarding response times on every email; I’ve been known to respond within the minute or at least the […]
“Whose your Daddy?” If a wedding company received an inquiry that conflicted with an owners religious beliefs; that owner, guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, could exercise their First Amendment “Right of Freedom of Speech,” and refuse the offer of business. In other words, a business has […]

Three things happened or are happening this week: 50 foot waves, Chinatown festivities to launch the lunar new year, and the Pro Bowl! If you’re into doing stuff, you gotta book your wedding the week before the Superbowl in Hawaii. I just realized it now, but this week […]
Affordable Hawaii Wedding Packages, great photo and video services, easy and fun planning
The State of Hawaii is a signature away from implementing a Climate Change tax. If passed, the hotel tax will be raised to 11%, and most likely this won't be the end - it never is. To make things worse, you're going to add a 4.75% General Excise tax, which literally taxes tax.
It's bullshit - and to all my future wedding couples, I truly apologize for our government.
The money will go towards curbing climate change, which let's face it, Hawaii is so tiny that no matter what we do - it can't curb climate change. Our active volcano contributes more Co2 than tourism. And they always use these funds in all areas of the budget. Climate Change is just an excuse. Our State already raised the GE Tax to pay for our rail, which isn't done. And they took that money to give themselves raises, and to pay for god knows what. The state also paid itself by raiding our Hurricane Fund. They are so corrupt.
Currently, our Governor is suing gas companies for the Lahaina fires, which is more bullshit. The fires were caused by our local government's decision to not manage dry brush. When you drive down all of our roads, you will notice that the government doesn't landscape - anything. We used to. Now they just let it go and use the surplus money to give themself raises, and to give the homeless money to be homeless.
Hawaii is still a beautiful place to visit.
But it's not the best place to live, and you can blame that on stupid people who are in high positions of power.
This state is screwed !! Josh green is an idiot and they keep miss managing everything !! Fail rail proven useless! Bring in doge!! Climate change lol. In Jakarta alone they burn thousands of pounds of Plastic a day just cooking tofu in one village, meanwhile they take away plastic straws and bags in USA ya that helps with what’s happening elsewhere !
Vote accordingly
So sorry to hear that Steve!!
Don't forget the stupid people who vote for these stupid people!
And to the very right, what looks like a flat rock, is our endangered Hawaiian monk Seal.
That's amazing.
