Rancher did you party at Duke's when you were in Waikiki? That's the hotel I stayed both times I have been to Hawaii. I love the strip mall across the street too. That's where I got my hawaiian jewelry. [img][/img]</end quote></div>

Hey Rancher you have some big waves heading your way. 7.0 quake in Lima Peru Tsunami warning for Hawaii.

 

Come on Rod, I'm bored, where are you, it's time for some bashing back at me [img]i/expressions/sun.gif[/img]

 

Just read this on Weather.com. There is a tsunami alert for hawaii, and if ther is one that hits it should be around 0215HST. i tried to call Rancher, but he is probably out having fun. Just thought i would share that with everyone.

Maybe the big guy needs to leave that Ford at the Dodge dealership. Then he would have a truck with the ability to get down State street.</end quote></div>
