Anyone else both already tired of hearing Christmas songs but also wanting to hear more of the local ones, LOL?

Like Willie K, Henry Kapono, Keali'i Reichel, Brothers Caz, Kamehameha Schools choir, Hapa, Sistah Robi, and Frank Delima (for some comic fun)? I still get chicken skin every time I hear Willie's "O Holy Night".

Aloha all,

It's another moving to the island with a pet question. We'll be getting our cat a second rabies vaccination and a FAVN test here in the mainland US as soon as possible, but his first rabies vaccination was in Mexico (it was at a certified vet and we do have the paper work). Will the state of Hawaii accept his first one or do we have to get him two additional shots instead of just one purely for paperwork?

Mahalo

Looking for a budget car on Maui! Don't want to buy overpriced cars :D idk if 5k will get me something but it is worth a shot!

I want to get my mom a nice massage or spa experience for christmas does anyone have any good recommendations, my budget is around $300-$400

This week the Council's Housing Committee is voting on the luxury homes development known as Wailea 670. In 2019, the developer reduced the number of homes to be built from 1400 to 1150 and proposed that 450 would be affordable. That would make the project 39% affordable. Now Project 670 wants to drop the number of affordable homes to 25% affordable (current ordinance) due to the new requirement that they develop their own water source and not use county water. An interesting question arose: what should the deed restrictions on the affordable homes be? Deed restrictions prevent owners from selling at market value or borrowing against their equity. They also require the owner to live in the house as their primary residence. Some Council members believe 5 years of restriction is sufficient and helps local families build generational wealth. Other council members want deed restrictions in perpetuity, or at least for 20 years to prevent buyers from selling for a big profit and to encourage local families to stay on island. What deed restrictions should the council impose on these future affordable homes?

Does anyone know anyone who can help look over my lease because I am 99 percent sure I am getting wrongfully evicted and without legal notice. If anyone knows anyone who can help since I can't afford to hire an attorney . Thanks

I received this email from Dawn at HARF. It's a shame, I adopted my Catahoula mix girl from them a couple years ago and always sent people there when they didn't necessarily want to deal with or couldn't find a dog they wanted at MHS. I remember calling Dawn and telling her my store would be donating 2 pallets of food for the animals right after the fire since they were kind enough to house displaced animals in addition to the rescues they were already handling.

Anyone has any experience with Waterdrop water filter? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086YH42QP?psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_ct_CGTE46ZM9NJYEG4VAR1A&language=en_US

Does it make the water taste better?

I’m trying to get something for GFs birthday coming up. Any store recommendations or tips on what to look out for would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Found a class ring the other day in Kihei.

Let me know year and school and I'll mail it back to you.

Is there a surgeon on island who you would recommend for a hernia repair surgery? Or someone on Oahu? I put this off too long, so it might be a bit a more difficult procedure. Your advice is much appreciated.

Welfare check on Jesus. I haven't seen him on the westside in what feels like months. Heard a rumor he might be down south. Anyone seen him?

It’s probably a long shot but my brother was looking to get my mom a bottle of her favorite Lehua raspberry wine but the shipping cost was a bit much for his budget and we live in Michigan. Does anyone know if they run discounted shipping rates for Black Friday?

Looks like there are 19 of them here already…

My daughter was walking my pup and he slipped off the leash and bolted near Kaulana Mahina apartments in Wailuku. Please be on the lookout.

I grew up on Kauai and now live on Maui. I probably swam at most of the beaches there at least once and could rate them all, but since I do not know the beaches here so well, any suggestions where is best and where to stay away from is very appreciated.
