  • Rainy Days

    It's been raining in Hilo for the past three days. What do you like to do on a rainy day?

    Re: Rainy Days

    I just spent the entire morning driving around Downtown Hilo which is basically under water as I write. Kamehameha Avenue was literally flooded out as I traversed it with my AWD Astrovan. As I drove past the closed off Pauahi Street, the police shut down Kamehameha Avenue. I managed to get out before they put up the barriers. My van doors sit about 12-inches from the ground and yet water was seeping in as I drove thru Kamehameha Avenue. Must have been close to 15-inches deep.

    Visibility on the Pahoa Highway going towards Pahoa town was down to about two car lengths with my windshield wipers unable to keep enough water off the windshield to drive safely yet here we were in a caravan of traffic moving along at 60-mph.

    The ironic part was that a water tanker passed by me fully loaded seemingly on it's way to fill up a catchment tank somewhere in Hawaiian Paradise park. I think he won't need to fill that tank very much. Both of my 5000 gallon tanks were about 1/4 two days ago, this morning the overflow pipes were belching water out.

      For me sleep. And of course one of the guys I fly model rockets with had a good one to say as the both of us were sitting in his car as we wait out a rain shower before we did a model rocket demo at a school.

          I get on my motorcycle and ride to work. Halfway there, I narrowly escape death on the H1 when the car in front of me slams on his brakes to avoid another vehicle, skids sideways, overcorrects and starts spinning. I spend the rest of the workday in soaking wet clothes, my boots full of water, wondering why I don't suck it up and get my car insured.

            I like that.

            Rainy days remind me of simpler times in Hilo. Rainy days make me want to snuggle.

                because you're a motorcyclist who loves the wind in your hair, the bugs in your teeth and the water in your boots... and you wouldn't be caught dead hiding behind a windshield of an automobile.

                Me I prefer to stay dry and keep the croutons out of my teeth so I drive in airconditioned comfort blasting my 1100-watt sound system in my leather-wrapped BMW seats, while the rest of the world bakes outside.

                      reminds me of those conversations we had in the military regarding which condoms you use.

                      One guy asked me if I used lubricated condoms. I told him, "Braddah if you no can get dat wahine all juiced up ladat you ain't convincing her you dat good...lubricated das for da amateurs!
