Allison My Dad robertkabbett.net Wednesday! Well, so much for my optimism for the year. I heard you saying yesterday that you had only received about one third of what was needed in the way of donations for the month. I can’t imagine your frustration. You work so hard providing a site where people from the world over may drop in and enjoy a slice of paradise. In a time where we are willing to pay significant amounts to have cable or satellite television in our homes, folks now paying to listen to the likes of Howard Stern on satellite radio and we pay for some type of computer bandwidth to send jokes by e-mail, why not give a few bucks a month to keep something as beautiful as IRH alive? As long as you are here, you’ll have our donations. Take care Rab. Greg and Pat Roberts A new camera is enabling me to show you more realistic views of our Hawai'i. Above, Friday morning's sunrise as seen off the garage roof just outside our studio. More below - all shot Friday 1/20/06. I think this camera is gonna work out ;) Kahala Beach to Koko Head.

The Monster Sea-Based X-Band Radar Dome you may have read or heard about is at Pearl Harbor. It arrived for a paint job last week. it caused quite a stir as it came into view from around Diamond Head unannounced last Monday. I saw it last Tuesday from atop Aiea Heights and wandered down to get closer and ended up down near the Arizona Memorial Museum. It's home port is Adak, Alaska and it will keep the western skies under surveillance when it goes into operations in the Aleutians soon. From a church parking lot you can see this large dome thing is docked down at Pearl. I got down closer to the X-Band and you can see it is loaded atop the 736-foot semisubmersible ship M/V Blue Marlin. I took this shot from the launch ramp down by the Arizona Memorial Museum.

Carol Schaub writes: I'm so sorry to hear that the station is in need again. Frankly, I don't understand the thinking of some of your listeners. The same people who wouldn't blink at spending $3.50 or more daily on a specialty coffee, can't seem to come up with a piddling donation of $25 a month to support the music that gives them so much pleasure. Even if they listen only twice a week, it comes out to a contribution of a mere $3 and change each time they listen. Now we both know that most people listen much more often than that – so it's even cheaper, especially when you consider all the hours that they listen. In any case, I'd like to contribute double my usual this month, and to thank you once again for all you do so that we, your listeners, may experience a piece, and the peace, of the islands. Happy Holidays to you and your family. I hope that this month your listeners will reciprocate and acknowledge just how important Hawaiian music is in their lives. May the new year bring you health, happiness and peace of mind. Aloha, Carol Listeners Ron & Madeline Speak Out. I read your article this morning about the correspondence between you and " Joel ". And having been a supporter of IRH for years continuously, I feel I have a certain right to respond to the matter in question. , Listeners are being urged to donate in order to keep IRH alive and running without you having to beg and plead each month to help out. That being said, by offering 'free' access in the beginning, until IRH had grown to an overwhelming audience of such proportions that it became evident that help was needed in the way of monthly donations. It thus became an absolute necessity in order for IRH to live on because of its own success. Consequently, listeners such as "Joel" are unfortunately just one of many of hundreds if not thousands, of cheapskates that think it is their god given right to take and not give in return just because something is there for the taking. What they don't understand is, is that it is not there for the taking, but for the enjoyment. The listening enjoyment of having a piece of Hawaii there within arms reach . A piece of Hawaii that a guy by the name of Robert Abbett provides for each and every one of us. For those of us who have been to Hawaii one time or many many times, it is a way to re-connect back to that little piece of heaven on Earth. For those who have never been there and only wish they could be, it is a way for them to be there without having to actually be there bodily but in spirit. In any event, the 'little radio station that could', from a house in Kailua Hawaii, needs all our support. If you don't believe it, turn it off and go put on your FM radio and listen to some BS music and a bunch of nonsense commercials for awhile. Maybe then you'll realize how much having Internet Radio Hawaii means to us all. Ron & Madeline Wilson Valrico, Florida Da Mokes, or more properly the Mokulua islands sit off of Lanikai beach. The island to the left is Moku Nui. To the right is Moku Iki. Both are bird conservation areas. You may land and visit the beach on Moku Nui during the day but you are not supposed to land at all on Moku Iki. Landing on and paddling out from Moku Nui can be very tricky and in fact deadly. Waves from both sides of the island wrap around the front and slap together as you make your approach. As happened on Monday 12-05-05 one can be swamped or turtled coming off the beach. A visiting reservist lost his life when that happened. Moku Nui island off Lanikai. Another shot of the Mokulas off of Lanikai. Ever see Kite Aerial Photography? Check out some shots of Haleiwa here . Mahalo to Tom Garber for sharing. Our family has given - how about yours? Press the graphic to go the Red Cross Website . Beware of Spam from sunspots.us - Roadrunner Security sent me an email Monday 8/29/05 indicating that someone in Seattle (not our friend Dennis Peterson) is using my domain irh.com as an "Ad" on spam about visitor destinations and to solicit business for their businesses and rental properties listed at sunspots.us. I know who this person is and I have spoken with roadrunner and some other folks about it. Should you ever get an email other than a personal thank you for your donation or an answer to a question, or a listener page update from irh.com or one of my other addresses then you can be sure it is not from here nor from me. We are currently being included as an "advertiser" via a link on the bottom of someone else's spam without my permission or previous knowledge. I do not spam, I have never spammed and if I did I certainly would not offer you relief from spam by suggesting you try Spamfire like I use - see the Spamfire info to the left. This person is a disgruntled wanna-be-partner who approached me several years ago about partnering up but never got it together (Thank God!). He also sends me $20 bills every once in a while and asks if I am still mad about all the wasted time and energy he caused. I always just mail the twenties back. I sent back his most recent $20 a few months ago and asked that he not call, write or even think of doing either ever again and this is apparently how he responds. This person and his employees even listed several other sites in closing their email as if to make it look like we were all buddies of his. "P.S. If you can't go right away, click below to enjoy some Hawaiian tunes www.kealiireichel.com/ www.e-hawaii.com/iz/izbook/izbook_98-09.htm www.makahasons.com/ www.IRH.com (Internet Radio Hawaii)" I am sure that Keali`i, the Makaha Sons and most certainly my dear friend the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole would never wish to have their sites or themselves nor their music associated with this person and his spam and business practices. It is very obvious that he simply does not understand the concept of Aloha and has some sort of major screw loose somewhere. One listener wrote me about his troubles with this fellow and how the folks in Washinton State call him "No-Pay" as he never honors committments and seems to forget to pay his bills. Anyhow, again, IRH.com does not spam nor advertise on other's email - period. I do not engage in spamming, have never spammed and never will. You can be assured of that. Should you ever get such an email please forward it to me and I will make sure the proper authorities are again alerted. Mahalo! Rabbett Runs here daily.

The following Tuesday was very hard for me. Every time I walked through the kitchen ( where Zig lived under the table) or through the big room where she hung out sprawled across the cool tile floor, I missed her terribly. My friend is no where to be seen. I'm crushed. I am so very much alone. Ziggy passed on over the rainbow at around 1 pm HST Monday afternoon at home in her bed under the careful hands and watchful eyes of her vet, an assistant and yours truly. I held her head in my hands and told her how good she was and how much I loved her, over and over. Ziggy was an angel in the body of a female white shepherd who kidnapped all our hearts and quickly became a member of our family. She was 13. Strangely enough, after glancing through her records it appeared that our first visit to the Vet was on Christmas Eve, 1990 and she was listed as being six weeks old. So although I don't remember the date because I wasn't there, she was born right around this part of the month of November. Ziggy was one of the smartest animals I have ever known. She learned tricks and how to use dog doors with ease and loved to play ball! She could catch incredible bounces and when younger would play and chase the darn thing for hours on end. She was obedient to a fault. She would come over and console us when we were down and had an amazing smile that would brighten any gray day. She was a great guard dog but did not just go outside and bark for the sake of barking. She came on command, she came with hand signals, she came to me sometimes with just a thought. Ziggy was a bit annoyed by our recent construction and hated the thumping noises most. She'd often retreat to the quiet of the bathroom in the old house but, she greeted all the carpenters every day with a wag, a sniff and a lick. I'm so glad she got to enjoy the big new room downstairs. I'm sorry she wasn't capable of making it up the 14 steps to the new studio. She would have dug it. I swear, she liked Hawaiian music. I left a radio on all the time in the new bathroom downstairs and I caught her groovin' on more than one occassion. You could tell. It was that special look on her face. Sheer bliss. She really liked Gabby and would react with recognition whenever she heard me rattling on about something or doing a promo. Ziggy went over the rainbow with dignity and class and a full belly of her favorite rawhide treats, a freshly brushed coat of gleaming white fur and a flood of love from a several hour petting and hangin' out session we enjoyed Monday. We also played drop catch with the ball and she never missed, even through pretty heavy cataracts. Dr. Caspar, who she greeted by jumpin' up and wobblin' over to and then licking excitedly, said she also apparently was beginning to suffer liver malfunction as her belly was filled with liquid. That made me feel better about my decision and bad too because maybe I should have done something last week. It was, without a doubt, the hardest decision I have ever made in my life. I agonized over it for the past couple months but finally, Monday with her condition deteriorating rapidly, I decided to call in the Vet. I did this for my dearest and very very best friend who was having real problems with advanced arthritis in her back legs and was hardly able to get around anymore. We exhausted all the heroics - pain pills, pain receptor inhibitors, powder and liquid glucosamines, steroids and prayers. Ziggy resting in the garage early Monday by her Big Water. My Mom and I talked Monday - (she is the dog queen and has a couple grand champions to her credit!) and she mentioned that there is a point where the human tends to go too far to keep the dog around. I didn't want to do that to her and as it turned out what with the liver disfunction and all I guess our timing was bless-ed. We love You Ziggy! We always will. We hope to play with you again one day on the other side of the rainbow.

Matching clothes always brings an air of love and closeness between two people. Those who share a love for the same fun style in the same pattern is bound to appreciate looking alike while on vacation or at a party. The same applies for two friends, a father and daughter, a mother and son, or a sister and a brother. Families and friends can shop together for clothes in matching patterns, whether they be made from a lovely paradise print, or if the patterns are the same and the colors differ. By purchasing a Hawaiian shirt and a matching tropical dress, two people can create a colorful bond that will be remembered for years to come. A Hawaiian Shirt and Matching Dress Can Add Versatility! For any woman, the choice between pants and a dress can always be concerning, especially at a casual but fun party, or if the weather outside looks inclement. The best thing is to have two options: a Hawaiian shirt and matching dress combo. A lady can then wear the shirt and pants, or wear the dress, or combine the two for a full Hawaiian ensemble! To make sure you are finding matching clothes in the exact pattern and color, it is best to go to an online store that sells many different styles in all the patterns they have to offer. Going into a thrift store for matching clothes can be futile, but an internet source that sells options as well as great service and shipping and handling can be a great option.
