A word of advice for all people looking to get their job back.  Don’t through your backpack and tell your former manager their is a bomb in it.  A former Planet Hollywood employee tried it yesterday.  He is still out of a job and now is in trouble with the police.  Go figure.

Yesterday I went to the fair.  I haven’t been to the the fair in years.  Many people go to the fair for rides.  Not me.   Some of my most terrifying moments were spent on fair rides particularly on a ride called The Rainbow but that is another story for another day.  Being an adult they are even scarier.  I start to wonder how are they maintained and are they maintained and at all.  I want to leave the fair in one piece so I just watched people ride.   I was there primarily  to try some fair food.   On the list of things I wanted to try was Fried Oreos, Fried Twinkies, Fried Coke and Fried Snickers.  We found the Fried Oreos first.  They were pretty good.  Then we found the Fried Snickers.  That was really good but it looked like poo on a stick.  I wasn’t as impressed with the Fried Twinkie.  It wasn’t bad but it was nothing to write home about.  Never did find the Fried Coke.

I have never thought puppies were especially dangerous.  Boy was I wrong.  Three pit bull puppies in Spring Hill, FL mistook their owners face for a chew toy and chewed off their owners ears and then proceeded to chew off the right side of the guys face.  Ouch.

You can complain all you want about your little roach or termite problem.  They simply aren’t a big deal to Floridians.  Here we have alligators that will invade your homes.  Who do you call then?  I don’t think the Orkin guy handles eight foot gators.  Sure roaches and termites can be a minor nuisance but when is the last time someone was killed and eaten by a termite or roach?

You are throwing a luau.  You have the food.  You have the drinks.  You have the decor.  Do you have the music?  No luau would be complete without the appropriate music.  Don’t be one of those people that plays reggae at a luau.  Reggae has its place but a luau is not one of those places.  The same goes for Jimmy Buffet.  No Jimmy Buffet at the luau.  What you need is some good Hawaiian music with the ukele and slack key guitar.  There are plenty of good musicians.  One of my favorites is Daniel Ho.  You can’t go wrong with one of his albums. 

The fair is in town again. I would like to go this year. I am not interested in the rides but I would like to try a fried twinkie, fried oreo, fried snickers, fried coke and anything else that you can throw in a deep fryer.

This is not the recipe for the red stuff you find in the grocery store.  If that is what you are looking for go to your grocery and buy it.  This is for a much more delicate and alcoholic punch.  If you are having a luau and want to serve a punch this is the drink to make.  Here is waht you need:

• 4 cups of Orange Juice
• 4 Cups of Guava Juice
• 4 Cups of Pineapple Juice
• 1/2 cup of Grenadine
• 1 Cup of Ginger Ale
• 3 Cups of Light Rum
• 1/2 Cup of Dark Rum
• Splash of 151.  You don’t have to add the 151 if you don’t want but I like to kick it up a notch with a splash or two.

Start with the top ingredient and go down the list mixing them in a large punch bowl.  Add ice and stir.  No that is some good Hawaiian Punch. 

I can’t afford a life-size R2-D2 either. I want this too.

Someone took a lot of time to set this up.
