There’s a sci-fi subplot verbalized by Nichols. First, on a small note, Nichols tends to repeat himself that he has failed (he says this about three times). He relates that Ryan needs to save the world. Daryl finds some futuristic device and refers to “Starburst”. One understands it’s a set up for a possible future novel. Adding a sci-fi element is an artistic choice. It definitely can work in a novel, but if it’s going to be set up, then provide just a brief payoff near the end, even if it’s…

It could bring a long list of problems.” Consuelo’s heart bled when she implored “But think of Mauricio. He brought himself a ring and a tuxedo. He is prepared to stand at the altar Saturday.

As I address that theory in this paper I will be comparing and contrasting the difference in the Western philosophies of Plato to that of old Hawai’i before the coming of the Christians missionaries in 1820. I will also explain the ways in which I found ancient Hawaiians were also similar to Eastern monistic ways of thinking. In both cases, Hawai’i seems to be unique because…
