No tourists, No sharks, No money. Welcome to Maui
November 16th, 2008
The Maui Visitors Bureau reports that visitors are staying away this year because of the economy. That’s bad. However, even sharks are staying away from our beaches. That’s good. But how did the sharks find out about the economy?

Halloween – 2008 Lahaina Yacht Club
November 6th, 2008
A fun time was had by all at the annual Halloween Part at the Lahaina Yacht Club in Lahaina Town, Oct. 31, 2008. The first picture is of me. The second picture is Adrienne Workman (who would know?). Second row, right is Dave the Bartender and with his back to us is Willie the Bartender. The pic on the right, second row is a sampling of the ladies in attendance. Bottom picture is a sample of the party goers. If only the burgees could talk.

Button Holes: An explanation from History
October 25th, 2008
I always wondered why men’s shirt buttonholes are on the left side of the front, and women’s blouse buttonholes are on the right side.
Various theories have been expounded: One is that in the past, ladies were dressed by servants, and buttons were usually on the back of the dress. It was easier for the right-handed person to handle the buttons.
Another is that men’s tunics had the left side on top so that if the man had to pull out his sword, it wouldn’t catch on the shirt.
The traditions have continued to this day, even though the reasons are lost in the past. It is the same for Hawaiian shirts: men’s shirt buttonholes on the left front, ladies on the right.
If we all went topless, we wouldn’t have to worry about it. However, our friend in the Hawaiian shirt business would go broke . . . and Maui Blackie would lose his blog!
