Soo much to do ... sooo little time

It appears that the halau from Mexico is being held hostage to the bureauracy of both US and Mexican consulate. While thousands of illegals cross the border, those that are legitimate cultural exchange artists are given the gift of grief for its attempt to travel legally and with the law.
But from what I have heard, this is normal. The whole mater would probably be easier some sort of monetary fix (read it as payuoff) has occurred.

But what do I know. I'm just a poor soul living in the middle of the Pacific Ocean on some island isolated from the "real" world. YEAH RIGHT.

How many cities in the US, or the world for that matter, can boast of 2 daily newspapers, 2 costcos, 2 walmarts, 2 sams club, has the largest starbuck, the highest income producing Kinko'sl, the highest icome producing starbucks, the highest income producing subway sandwich store and well you know what I mean.

Ahhhh, the price of paradise could mean a bucks in every mall, a 711 on every corner, cable tv and high speed fiber optic access.

and what do we get with paradise? did you see the pictures? (compliments of joe)
