They're exhaling through their blow holes.

I see politicians on TV every day exhaling through their blow holes, but they don't look even slightly as awesome as these dolphins. :cool:

We saw Jimmy Buffett in concert last night. His hair is a little thinner and his belly is a little bigger, but he still puts on a great show. I've never seen so many beach balls in one place in my whole life.

Jimmy definitely projects a party vibe. I don't believe he owns a pair of long pants or shoes.

My wife refuses to go to the theater to see movies so we mostly wait until they're available on DVD/Blu-Ray or on Netflix and Amazon MyTv. We finally saw The Descendants two nights ago.

The opening sequence and monolog really nailed Hawaii. While Matt King describes how wonderful paradise is, the visuals are of massive traffic jams, street people, etc. They were all shot in Honolulu which, in reality, is just another big city that has a cool beach.

It's a cool beach as long as the sand is continually replenished. My first time on Waikiki was in the early sixty's. You could swim out a little way to snorkel and see lotsa cool fish. Now, with all the sand that's been brought in, you can walk out three or four hundred yards and not be in water over waist deep.

Maui has a long way to go before we look like Honolulu.

The other neat quote I liked was, "Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen." With the style and mode of dress here you really can't judge a book by its cover.
