Steven,

You assume correctly, I live on Maui. You would be amazed at things here.
My husband (45 years old) makes $7.00 an hour at his job. I'm a free-lance
computer tech, so my salary varies...

I should send you a link to the Maui News Letters to the Editor.....LOTS of
people complain there about food and gas prices. Oh, by the way, the price
of gas is $2.37 cents a gallon.


Well, my thoughts on this thansgiving are both with you/Hubby and with
my family.

Yours for good luck in the future under economic circumstances that
would knock me for a loop..and mine for living in Massachusetts (where
the economy stinks...I was unemployed for 9 mnths but have found the
wonders of healthcare employment with my wife), for eggs are $1.20 and
milk is $1.99 for 1%, and gas has dropped to around $1.55 per gal.

Do me a favor...do send me the link...I'm seriously interested, not in
visiting, but in how people deal and stick up for their rights in your area.

Time for a Hawaiian President!

Happy Thanksgiving!


Don'tcha want to visit PARADISE?

Tee hee,

Kilikini

Try finding a new place to live! Jeesh! I just went thru that. I

found a

Count your blessings, people.......

Kilikini...apologies...where are you? I was assuming Hawaii? This is
very intersting subject that may be off topic to this group, but If
above is true. I'm astounded. I can understand high prices but not
average salary.

This sounds like an environment where people die daily at a high rate.

I'm familier with island living (though no where near as far off coast
as you may be) it sounds like there should be crippled beggars on the
streets like the Dominican Republic and Haiti.
