The Aloha Spirit
My husband went out and bought an alarm for the car yesterday. I told him that he should have it professionally done..however, he likes to fix things himself. Typical! Anyway we haven't had an alarm on the car since we got the dang thing. He decides to get this awful talking one...it is soooo embarrassing! He thinks it is funny..trust me it's not! We had to get an alarm after some of our friends got their car broken into in a parking lot. The windows weren't broken or anything..the car looked completely normal. They took her purse and everything that was in the car. She had locked the purse in the trunk and they went through the car to get it. Anyone who has lived in Hawaii long enough knows that you should never never leave anything in the car....ever! Tourists see the beauty and tranquility of Waikiki, they don't usually see the problems that Hawaii has. Hawaii doesn't have a high murder rate or scary crimes...it does have a high rate of theft and burglary. During Christmas time 90 houses were broken into in the same neighborhood. A lot of these thefts are directly linked to the huge ice problem that Hawaii has. It is because of this that we now have a talking alarm! So if you are ever in Hawaii remember to never leave anything valuable in your car or you too can feel the power of the Aloha Spirit!

I'm intrigued as to what is "Hawaii's Ice problem"? I had a blast when I was there. I checked out some clubs for locals and for the tourists. Good times.
WEll it is not literally ice as in cold ice but crystal meth. A lot of crimes that occur are because people are stealing to get money for their drug addiction. It is a major problema here. Especially in ChinaTown! It is great to live out here..I personally have never had problems..but my friends have. The clubs are fun, did you make it out to Zanzabars or Rumors? Sooo fun.
Great Pictures of Mardi Gras by the way!
