We have had the usual two word individuals with little or no imagination who are unable to post anything of interest so decide to bore the pants off those who can post more than two words. We have had the other sort who think they "win" and cant understand that they cant win till the thread is closed. We have had others who attempt to join in and make it a little more than a "bore the pants of others" thing but all in all it has been the usual stuff and to date, nobody has actually won anything. Oh I did get told off on one post and was told the the words "I WIN" are all that is needed in this thread but I put that down to ignorance. ![]() ![]() ![]()

SHARE:Share on Twitter!Share on Facebook! The state of Hawaii consists of eight main islands: Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe and the Big Island of Hawaii. Hawaii is the most isolated population center on the face of the earth. Hawaii is 2,390 miles from California; 3,850 miles from Japan; 4,900 miles from China; and 5,280 miles from the Philippines. Hawaii is the only state that grows coffee. More than one-third of the world's commercial supply of pineapples comes from Hawaii. There are only 12 letters in the Hawaiian alphabet. Vowels: A, E, I, O, U Consonants: H, K, L, M, N, P, W From east to west Hawaii is the widest state in the United States. The Hawaiian Islands are the projecting tops of the biggest mountain range in the world. Honolulu's zenith star, (the star that rises directly above it) is Arcturus. The Hawaiians called it Hokule'a. (Hoe koo lay uh.) Under-sea volcanoes that erupted thousands of years ago formed the islands of Hawaii. The Hawaiian Archipelago consists of over 130 scattered points of land stretching some 1,600 miles in length from the Kure Atoll in the north to the Island of Hawaii in the south. The first Asian American in the United States Senate was Hawaii's Hiram Fong. Descended from Chinese immigrants, Fong was elected to the Senate in 1959. Hawaii was the 50th state admitted to the union on August 20th, 1959. Island flowers and colors used to represent each island. Niihau - Pupu Shell - White Kauai - Mokihana (Green Berry) - Purple Oahu - Ilima -Yellow Maui - Lokelani (Pink Cottage Rose) - Pink Molokai - White Kukui Blossom - Green Lanai - Kaunaoa (Yellow and Orange Air Plant) - Orange Kahoolawe - Hinahina (Beach Heliotrope) - Grey Big Island of Hawaii - Lehua Ohia - Red Hawaii has its own time zone (Hawaiian Standard Time.) There is no daylight savings time.) The time runs two hours behind Pacific Standard Time and five hours behind Eastern Standard Time. There are four counties in Hawaii (Kauai; city and county of Honolulu; Maui; and Hawaii). Each city has a mayor and council in charge. All subterranean minerals belong to the state. Except for state owned water, some lava stone, and minor granites and semi-precious minerals, there are few underground minerals. The wind blows east to west in Hawaii. The highest recorded temperature is 96' F (Honolulu Airport), but temperatures over 92' F generally occur only once or twice a year. The lowest temperature (under 3000 feet altitude) is 56' F. Temperatures under 60' F may occur but rarely more than once a year. Average daytime temp. (July) is 82' F. Average daytime temperature in January is 72' F. There are no racial or ethnic majorities in Hawaii. Everyone is a minority. Caucasians (Haoles) constitute about 34%; Japanese-American about 32%; Filipino-American about 16% and Chinese-American about 5%. It is very difficult to determine racial identification as most of the population has some mixture of ethnicities. ISLAND OF NIIHAU A privately owned island, with livestock raising as its principal industry. There is highly limited access by general public through helicopter landings at uninhabited sites. Legend says Niihau was the original home of the goddess Pele. The island has a population of 230, and is 69 square miles. ISLAND OF KAUAI The fourth largest of the Hawaiian Islands. The Waialua River is one of five navigable river in Hawaii. It drains off Waialeale Mountain, which averages 488 inches of rain per year and is considered the wettest spot on earth. The Waimea, the Hanape'pe, the Lumahai and the Hanalei River are almost as big and quite navigable. The Hanalei River was dedicated a "national treasure" recently and is under government protection from use as a "place of business". ISLAND OF OAHU Honolulu is the largest city in the world -- at least it has the longest borders. According to the state constitution any island (or islet) not named as belonging to a county belongs to Honolulu. This makes all islands within the Hawaiian Archipelago, that stretch to Midway Island (1,500 miles northwest of Hawaii) part of Honolulu. Honolulu is about 1,500 miles long or more distance than halfway across the 48 contiguous states. Wai Golf Course is Hawaii's first municipal course. Honolulu is the nation's 11th largest metropolitan area.

| Big day for us tomorrow as we head north to pick up our third Furrbutt baby who has just hit the 12 week old age. This is another boy Yorkie and we just hope he gets on with Raggs and Ruby. Ruby is recovering so well from her Genetic Modification she has been just brilliant. She has never ever attempted to have a go at her stitches which she has out on this Tuesday coming. Next month we hope to pick up the fourth and final member of our family giving us four Yorkie kids to love and play with. Life is going to be different in our house....lol

| The Scoop on Poop What is poop made of? About 3/4 of your average turd is made of water. Of course, this value is highly variable - the water content of diarrhea is much higher, and the amount of water in poop that has been retained (voluntarily or otherwise) is lower. Water is absorbed out of fecal material as it passes through the intestine, so the longer a turd resides inside before emerging, the drier it will be. Of the remaining portion of the turd, about 1/3 is composed of dead bacteria. These microcorpses come from the intestinal garden of microorganisms that assist us in the digestion of our food. Another 1/3 of the turd mass is made of stuff that we find indigestible, like cellulose, for instance. This indigestible material is called "fiber," and is useful in getting the turd to move along through the intestine, perhaps because it provides traction. The remaining portion of the turd is a mixture of fats such as cholesterol, inorganic salts like phosphates, live bacteria, dead cells and mucus from the lining of the intestine, and protein. Why does poop stink? Poop stinks as a result of the products of bacterial action. Bacteria produce smelly, sulfur-rich organic compounds such as indole, skatole, and mercaptans, and the inorganic gas hydrogen sulfide. These are the same compounds that give farts their odor.

| Good Night America time for me to leave you as I head for my beauty sleep. Let the battle for that winning position continue and I will return to claim my losing status once again.
