First the fixtures from public restrooms and now the wires that carry electricity. Watch on, Planet Earth, as the United States of America begins to dismantle itslef and bring to a close an experiment gone horribly wrong that was started more than two hundred years ago with the founding of the country. I’m certain you…

Rental from craigslist in the heart of waikiki
Suffice to say…its not cheap to find a place to live in Hawaii…I haven’t asked but I wonder if they want a deposit on that closet? First and last? cd I have a closet for rent – there is space in it for one person sleeping upright; you’re able to lean against the backboard if…
Hmmm…now we start to understand…..
I don’t know what else to say here, I think the story speaks for itself….. cd LONDON (Reuters) – More than 60 percent of Britons use items such as screwdrivers, scissors and earrings to remove food from between their teeth, according to a survey published Friday.
Trouble getting rid of shit
Toilets, sinks, and flush valves disappeared from 28 Oahu public rest rooms over the last 3 weeks. Can you picture this gang?? [Cue Mission Impossible music…] Thieves in the last three weeks have hit scores of city park bathrooms and made off with a valuable commodity: $10,000 worth of brass toilet flush valves. City officials…

In our world, you have to, if you want to survive. Of course, that creates certain vulnerabilities…especially…

This story is both creepy and compelling…the hard part ot figure out is why the experienced hiker didn’t figure out a way to escape like these boys did…. They found identification showing the camper was Donovan, 60, a retired social worker from Virginia. They learned later that he was an experienced hiker who had been…
One Thing They Aren't: Maternal – New York Times
Glad I’m not a rabbit or a panda. Or a pig or a nurse shark… Er, Happy Mother’s Day. Oh, mothers! Dear noble, selfless, tender and ferocious defenders of progeny all across nature’s phylogeny: How well you deserve our admiration as Mother’s Day draws near, and how photogenically you grace the greeting cards that we…
Like Til Ulenspiegel – Superhero Anarchists in Germany steal Rich Food
I love this story. When I used to hang out with the bums and have fires on the beach, Two Dog Tom (who I write a bit about in Rough Living) would sometimes get a little stoned and begin to tell tales of Til Uulenspiegel, the German robber/Robin Hood who would always ask his victims…
