12 Days of Christmas - Hawaiian Style!
Another blast from the past - thanks to Joe again!
Funny thing was that I was singing this song to a friend as we were looking at the NYC holiday windows yesterday. Couldn't remember past 5 Big Fat Pigs (which, by the way, is more properly sung with 2 pig snorts after the Pigs, thusly: "Fiiiive Big Fat Piiiigs, snort snort") - came home & there was the whole thing on Facebook. Awesome.
That brings back memories of a late 60's LP of a Hawaiian Christmas. There was a Hawaiian Scrooge who in the end decided to stop being selfish and "spread 'em around", and a Hawaiian Night Before Christmas. Wish I could remember the artists. One was famous for his character "Senator Kau-kau Manua".
I love this post! I just came back from my honeymoon in Hawaii and I can relate to this! I wish I was still there. Allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Chuck. I represent Boating.com. I have come across your site before and I really enjoy your posts. I was curious if you sell ad space on your blog or not. I wouldn't be looking for a typical in-your-face image ad. We mostly post short text ads, that are really only text links to our site.
Please contact me via this email should an opportunity arise.
Thanks, Charles, I was so excited to share this little blast from the path. My boyfriend asked me if this was something people actually sang in Hawaii & I was happy to tell him yes, it absolutely positively is.
Thanks for your interest in ad space but this really is a purely-for-fun endeavor - not interested in starting to take ads.

Anyway, good fun! Happy holidays.
... and a myna bird in a papaya tree! Love it!
