"What are you doing here" the pilot said "I got caught up in the rip tide" I said "whats in that box"he said "I don't know", "well lets find out" the pilot said as he grabbed some metal cutters so he could cut the lock

    Hawaii, the home of white sand beaches, pro surfing, hula dances, and warm weather. If I could move to any region within the United States, I would move to Hawaii with no hesitation.

    My funniest moment comes with some background information so that anyone that reads this doesn’t take it the wrong way. Since I was about sixteen years old I have said that the day I turn thirty years old, that I want to die in a shark attack. I don’t say it in a way meaning I don’t want to pursue my life, and it’s not meant in a way that I’m not happy with my life either. When I say it, I don’t really mean it, but it is my way of dealing with the things that life has dealt for me and my future. There are many, many health issues in my family from, dementia to diabetes.…
