Shortage of pumpkin pie products through the holidays.
Nestle which produces Libbys can pumpkins says there might be a shortage of can pumpkins due to heavy rains and therefore they weren't able to pick enough pumpkins to get them into cans. So, if you see anything having to do with pumpkins, you need to grab it because it might not be there when you come back to get it.

Huffing and preteens and teens
Parents, please pay attention to household chemicals in your house. Kids are getting high off air dusters and all kinds of household products cuz its legal and easily attainable. Kids are dying from this. Please talk to your kids and tell them that they can die if they do this. Open communication is key.

Looking for something to do on FURLOUGH FRIDAY
Yesterday at Pearl Harbor they had just closed the USS BOWFIN for the filming of LOST! Why not make it both educational and fun to watch them film scenes for LOST! There is a museum by the bowfin and then go over to USS ARIZONA to watch the movie and then go on the boat. It takes 75 minutes for the USS ARIZONA side. The movie is very sad but informative.
Due to the USS BOWFIN CLOSED, they are only charging 5 dollars kamaaina rate for the museum with headphones. And there are no bags and purses allowed and strollers. Either pay the 3 dollars for storage or you can leave it at home and or car. This is all due to 9/11 increased security measure.
The USS MISSOURI is closed until JANUARY 2010.
And seeing that the historical date is coming up on DECEMBER 7th and the year was 1941.

Turtles Were Released Out to Sea
I was at the Kahala on Wednesday and just happen to be there in the afternoon where they released 2 green sea turtles into the wild blue ocean. They were born at Sea Life Park and had lived at the Kahala for about four years. It was like a graduation ceremony where the parents that raised them were sobbing. The green sea turtles are doing so well that they are off the endangered species list. It was very moving and educational. So, basically I wanted to share that don't look to hard for the turtles when you go to Kahala Hotel.
