I've not seen any meat here that is $30 to $40 per pound but then again I
don't look for meat priced that high. I did buy pork for carnitas this
past week and it certainly was nowhere near that per pound.

My wife said that eggs on the mainland were going for $1.49/18. I bought some eggs the other day. They were $3.45/18. That was a major score because usually they're $5.49/18. I was quite pleased with myself.

Didn't he once say chickens ran wild all over his rock and he picks

Really? Can you or she name these stores where eggs are going for this
price? Grade A large eggs this week at Kroger are selling for 79¢ per
dozen while jumbo eggs were selling for $1.00 per dozen at Walmart.

No, I cannot nor would I bother to find out. The eggs were on sale in Washington state. Do the research if you're interested. If jumbo eggs were selling for $1.00 per dozen at Walmart, what's so unbelievable about eggs selling for $1.49 per 18 i.e., exactly the same price?

Yet, you eat live eggs with no problem. Live baby chicken embryos killed
and eaten every morning. How does that make you so special?

Oh my, are you actually sticking up for Bruce?
He has chickens and a rooster or more. That's how it usually

yes, the price you state is about right. I'm paying probably $1.89
for 18 extra large at Walmart.

We have locally produced eggs and milk here that cost about 30% more than eggs and milk from the mainland. Of course, I only get mainland eggs and milk. My guess is that in the near future, we won't have any milk or eggs produced locally.

At my local store here (Harris Teeter) a 30-count tray of eggs is only
$1.99. Same price it's always been and always available.

Someone here told me that Walmart sells them even cheaper but I've never
shopped at Walmart for groceries. Just for their other stuff.

My first trip to the mainland was to the San Francisco Bay Area. I was quite impressed at how cheap food was. Milk seemed dirt cheap to me, it was half price. I suppose that prices were about 30% cheaper than Hawaii. My guess is that the price difference isn't so large these days.

The Japanese tourists that come here must be amazed at how they can buy a steak or burger for dirt cheap so I suppose we should be grateful for what we got.

When? During the '60s Frisco was the least expensive place to live...
was mostly salooons & bawdy houses left over from the gold rush days.

Beats me, I haven't lived there in decades. We flew in and went to a market to get some supplies. Just before we got out of the car there was a news report that Keith Moon had died. My mind was pondering heavily on his death and then how milk was ridiculously priced. That was certainly a milestone day for me.

Uh... the "gold rush" in San Fransisco you speak of ended in 1855.
There have been a few upgrades to the city since then, not to mention an
earthquake that destroyed quite a lot. I guess you haven't priced real
estate in the Bay area lately. I watched an episode of 'House Hunters'
a few days ago. $1.5 million might get you a one bedroom/1 bath condo
in the Bay area these days. You'd need a budget of closer to $1.7
million to get 2 bedrooms. (When I say "condo" I'm talking about row
houses - maybe you can relate better if you imagine a row of Brooklyn
brownstones.)

The last time I was in San Francisco (yep, it was 1969) Dad had been
transferred to Thailand. We ate at a Chinese restaurant the night
before we had to catch the flight. I'm pretty sure the food was dirt cheap.

Prices in CA have undergone vast change since the '60s. I lived all
over CA then working in the aircraft industry. Pay was very high in
an attempt to draw skilled help from the east. My first job in CA was
for Lockheed... Boeing and Lockheed were competing for the supersonic
transport, in the end the French got it... the CA economy went under
water.
In 1961 the least expensive CA cities to live in were Frisco and
Diego. After the French won the big contract I went to Diego to work
for Hughs Tool, they were building heliocopters. During the year I
worked for Lockheed my take home pay was $444.00 per week. We rented
half a very nice 2 bedroom duplex in Monterey Park for $55/month. The
following year in Diego we rented a lovely 3 bedroom stand alone house
just north of the zoo for $60/month + $5 to rent a gas stove... at the
time rentals didn't include a stove, could rent one from the landlord
or use your own. At that time San Diego was the filthiest Navy town
I've ever seen, wall to wall gin mills, tattoo parlors, and whore
houses. I took the job at Hughs because the take home pay was $100 a
week more than from Lockheed in Burbank so we rented way out of town
by the zoo. My first week we lived in a hotel room in downtown Diego,
$10 per week.
The funny thing is that at that time Frisco was considered Southern
Cal, the snobs hate to be reminded.

Shit must be horribly expensive in da Loo.

At those prices you should be able to enjoy a good piece of Ukelele
ass.

It's 3 in the morning and I'm eating a burrito filled with beans, cheese, quinoa, and a spicy sauce. It's rolled up and fried and I'm as happy as a clam.

I'm hungry, really hungry. It was a weird day. A hurricane was supposed to hit Hawaii and my sons and granddaughters spent the day here cause we're pretty sure our condo is not going to get blown away. As it goes, the hurricane missed us. We had no winds or rain. The worst hurricane ever!

This just goes to show you that even the most sophisticated of weather instrumentation can't predict what mother nature is going to do.

That photo shows conclusively that Hawaiians are more sophisticated than
folks on the mainland. All we have are sheetmetal chickens on top of roofs
that tell us which way the wind is blowing. The cognoscenti leave a glass of
water outside to see if its freezing.

And the illuminati crack an egg on the hood of their car.

Alternatively, we'll roll down our car windows and stick our heads out to see if a hurricane is a-blowing. Of course, we'll stop the car first. I mean, we ain't dumb.
