Very true.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

We sent the sailing team kids out on a treasure hunt and they came back with this.

Hmmm. Doesn't look like your typical Kou calabash.

So do they let the kids put Hawaiian punch in there and drink out of it?

Sweet! Congratulations!

The two Cup escorts related the story about, after winning, the team filled it with Red Bull and passed it around for a shot each. It must have taken a long time to get it polished.
The Cup travels so much it has its own airline frequent flyer mileage account.
After I took this picture I asked them to show off their Uzi's. They demurred.

Do you think they realize people are taking a picture of the cup, and not of them?
I guess, in essence, they are the ultimate photobombers.

They normally stay wide of the Cup. I asked them to step in to get their pictures with it.

Main Streeter has been busting my chops for years about me still using an original Motorola RAZR phone. It died last week when I was in Seattle on a quick trip. It may be gone but not soon forgotten.
