I have seen toilet paper among other things floating in the canal reported on the news. This is just about the most disgusting thing I have ever seen in any part of the US.

If a piece of toilet paper floating in a canal is the worst thing you've seen in the US then you must not have been around much huh?

If you think floating toilet paper is disgusting wait till you see the brown trout that go with it.

My sister just move from San Diego to Hawaii. Prior to San Diego she lived in Oregon for 20 years and only moved to San Diego because she couldn't stand the rain anymore. I think she was in San Diego just 3 or 4 years before the move to Hawaii, and is really impressed with the weather, in a portland sort of way.

I've seen Hawaii...once...and I'm glad I did.But if I die without ever having seen it a second time,I won't feel cheated.

Florida is the place for a winter vacation,IMO.

Wow, what an article. We were planning on going to Kauai this July, but with all the rain and the busted reservoir, I wonder if all the touristy things will be up and running?

Perhaps I should just send my credits every January so as to ease the "snowbird" traffic jams on the highways. ;-)

Cash works here too.

Florida has its share of problems as well. The large number of CCWs may be one reason our crime rate isn't too bad. Anyone found targeting tourists is also strung up appropriately.

It sounds like Florida is a lot like Texas in that regard:

"If you come to Texas and kill someone,*we will kill you back*"

So, does Hawaii promise "happy endings" if I go on vacation there?

Are you serious. You would not go to Hawaii because of it being a blue state. Using your logic, I guess you cannot give any money towards any blue state. Is your local city blue? You can't go to any big cities in the U.S. at all or you will give money to the blue state. I have been to Wi Ki Ki (Sp?) and it was wonderful. Don't use the blue vs red to keep you from a great vacation. Obviously we want the U.S. all red, but there are some great areas in blue states as well (at least for a vacation).

I won't go to meeting in Frisco, avoid New York and limit any Blue state as much as possible.

why? ...basically cause I can..... I've lived in Hawaii, but it's just turning into a liberal sh#t hole, and faces the same problem other liberal sh#t holes face... the parasites overwhelm the producers and leave a waste land... look at the Northeastern United States, Los Angeles, and San Diego is heading that way..

whatever libs don't eat, they sh#t on....just like flies.

I guess I just never realized that people actually do this. I respect your decision on doing this, but I just can't see blaming a state because a major city has some blue in it. I would never even have thought about not visiting New York because it is blue. This red/blue stuff just started two elections ago didn't it?

not for me... I quit going to frisco back around 1987 or so... it was just easier and easier to avoid bullsh#t libs and not support them with my money.

Did the same thing with my corporations retirement account, dumped Schwab and use Vanguard. Pennsylvania is the lesser of two evils as far as I'm concerned.

I'd even be more willing to move all corporate plans to Texas but Vanguard is a class operation and low cost.

choke off the money to support liberal parasites, then they'll go looking for somewhere else to sponge onto...like europe..

Don’t worry, our criminals rarely violently attack visitors -- they just steal your wallet, your video cameras and your suitcases any time you pull over to look at the view or go for a quick swim. No, it is not part of the visitor industry’s plan to get visitors to spend more per trip -- it is the criminals who need your stuff more than you do so they can subsidize Hawaii’s worst in the nation crystal meth habit.

Just ask "Dog"-the Bounty Hunter.

I won a trip last year where I could choose between NYC, Florida, California, Utah and Hawaii.

Hawaii was my last choice (I went to Utah instead)
