Dass one nodda reason I love my Crocs over rubbah slippahs. During winter with da ground or parking lot pavement iced over and I gotta walk from my car to the store or whatevers, anything else I wear will slip and slide except my Crocs which I find quite amazing. So yes, I wear my rubbah slippah type Crocs in da snow during winter too, and also wear shorts to take out da garbage, because it's also good fun to watch da neighbor's facial expressions. |

I have the answer to the question in the article as to why African countries support whaling- my friend is the IWC representative for France. According to him, Japan and Norway pay these countries to vote with them. Money is power- and the people of these countries are too concerned with finding dinner for their children tonight to worry about the fate of the whales and the fact that their leaders are getting paid off to support whaling.
Perhaps conservation orgnizations should take a page from their book, and pay even more for them to NOT support whaling...

Eh Hapuna! You NOW talking like I knew you back in 1967 when I was trying fo teach you guyz physics, chemistry, and biology ("PCB", but not da tela'pon'pol kine) and you was yakking PHILOSOPHY (wat kine science, dat!?!) in class. Da way fo get smart ("akamai", not "smart mouth")is to talk about e'bry thing round and about the slippah tread but use the slippah tread for 'tread' dea!
Eh Ypochris! Thanks for the WIC input. I goin email my friend Seamus, he running one of the Lion Conservancy plantations, who the author of that article assists.

Yikes! I seem to recall one short sleeve white shirt and one skinny tie and one flat-top hair cut! But I was in Aratani's class (hoo I dunno if dat's da name, but she was one Japanee lady wit big hair).
Oh yeah...da slippahs. No can scrap wit da slippahs on. Azz da first ting fo fly off...da slippahs. Nex come da shirt. But firs you gotta chek out da enemy...if he get shoes, he goin try step yo feet and you gotta keep fleet-of feet an no lettum stomp yo toes. If he keep da shirt on if you lucky, you can pull 'em ovah his head, den WHAM! You got 'em! An no lettum up. Azz da firs big mistake.
Da slippas is good fo mak da feet wide an da toes grip. Do mo wide da feet da mo balance. You know da peepo wid da big toe wrap ova da nex toe...dey nevah wea slippah! |
Aloha,

The newspaper article was good, Blaine, but I like the comments at the end of the article more better. Like letting them dry or they get stinky. Or cockaroaching someones slippahs but now they have different dents in them. Now that really does make sense to me.
Now, seeing as how I am old and seeing as how I have diabetes and seeing as how I got really bad circulations in my feet and just about no nerve sensations, the foot guy told me that your feet are kind of like a tomato. Put even a gentle weight on top of the tomato, like maybe a saucer. Right away nothing happens, but after a while, they tomato starts to get lilabit smashed. Eventually the tomato cracks open. Jalike my feet.
But, what I want to know is why my feet were good while I was in Hawai`i but now they are bad again? I mean the soft, silky skin instead of ugly rough feet?
I remember my Granpa getting worried about his feeet right before Easter every year. At church, they would do "foot washing" on Palm Sunday. So, he would spend like the whole couple of weeks before then spiffing up his winter rough feet so nobody would talk stink about his feet at church for the foot washing.
Even my skin was softer, silkier and needed less lotion to be soft. Why is that? How can I get that Hawai`i nice skin over here in Ohio? I do use kukui oil frequently, both as a moisturizer and as a scrub. I get the salt scrub with kukui oil -- it is the bees knees. |
Me ke aloha
Malama pono,

Wanda,
Hawaii get 2 very important good stuff for skin. Numba 1 da humidity caresses da skin and makes all da cracks and stuff go away(though you might sweat and stink a little)
Numba 2 go beach and go inda wada. That bugga really buffs da skin and get rida all da kaluses!!! (howeva as a body surfa da bugga also wen buff da inside of my nose so folks tink I do too much cocaine but was really da salt wada.......no I mean really!!  ) |
