VOTE DAMMIT!As I find myself in the midst of yet another Election Day and on the cusp of returning to Iowa for the second time, I am completely delirious.
I will admit that I have really begun to like it out here in Buffalo. It's honestly a really great town. And I actually believe that if a job presented itself to me, I might actually consider it because I've come to be quite fond of this town.
And yes, I return to Albany tomorrow, for one whole evening, before being sent out to Iowa until the Caucus. Expect yet another blog to be attached to this one, reminiscent of the 2004 "Tails from the Trail".
In the meantime, I just had an enlightening conversation with my colleague that can only be best described as fuzzy as we both left the office after 10pm and returned less than 8 hours later.
It occurs to me that there are few records of what I am about to post below. And after a few Google searches, I managed to find it.
So for those of you who have ever wondered exactly what Lisa sang in Dirty Dancing, you know, that hula song she sings for the talent show at Kellerman's, enjoy the following.
Oh, and if you have races in your towns, go out and vote!
Cheers.
Who’s this Hula hana, of kamana whala hula bay, she will hula when you have a lovely gift she wants, you’ll hear her say, bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings, I wanna I really wanna, bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana,
