Leaving for Hawaii tomorrow at 4:30am (flight at 8:08) and not coming back until Tuesday morning at 5am. So needless to say, I won't be on here. Trip is totally free except for whatever expenses so I'm pretty siked. Be taking a lot of pics, just bought another memory card for my camera.
Stopping in LA for an hour on the way there and change of flights then off to Maui. Staying at a Westin Inn. No real plans so far except for visiting some breweries. Definitely going surfing though, although I've never been. Lots of drinking and partying for sure. I apologize in advance if I call anyone crazy drunk. This is the farther I've ever traveled.

Plan on it. As the day is going on I'm here at work getting more excited for the trip. Looks like I'm not sleeping tonight (which is ok because then I can sleep on the plan better).

My buddy who's a sales rep won the trip through a Budweiser American Ale contest and I'm going with. Become a sales rep for me and then win lol.
I hope the weather is nice. Another sales rep from another company I work with came back from Hawaii last week. She said it's great and weather was 85 the whole time. I really hope it doesn't rain. Got too many things to accomplish... like take over the reign of the Drunken Lobster.

I'M BACK!
Just landed 5:30 this morning and now chilling at home. I thought the flight was going to be delayed/cancelled because they've been talking about blizzard warnings and shit in Chicago. But it was 16 with 35+mph winds and still landed early. Had an AWESOME time. It's hard coming from 75-85 degrees back to 10 degrees and a foot of snow.
Pics will eventually come.

Nice. This one had 4,500 miles on it when I got it. Put about 300+ miles on it. Power everything, from remote start to automatic windshield whippers. Very underpowered though, wasn't a fan of the pickup.

Ya Quick reply, edit and some other commands don't work in Firefox 3. The only way to get around that right now is by clicking on it and opening it in a new tab or new window. Or just click Go Advance right off the bat to make it happen.
The whales were no other word than breath-taking. This was the 1st time ever seeing any whales in the open ocean. It's just a little overwhelming seeing these things. And how close to get to places. Here's a shot from my balcony again and we could see them from there.

One could only assume that it does. I mean if that's the 'newer' version... it should solve any problems up-to-date (at least it would in a perfect world). We shall see though. I mean, enough people complained about it to a point where we ARE updating, so... We shall see.
