Yeah...something about the Carribean that just reminds me too much of mud, poverty, bad pot, stinky people, death squads, trash, run-down buildings, and getting tortured by the Maquuut. Fuck Buffet. Give me South Pacific every time.

Damn BK I didn't notice this before. Where have you been in the Caribbean and the Pacific? I have seen all these things, the good, the bad and the ugly, in both areas. But I do agree with "Fuck Buffet"! :P

One good thing Hawaii's got that the Carribean doesn't have is hula dancers, but those wacky afro-islanders have steel drums and that crazy limbo dancing.

You know when the hula was a VERY sexual dance (half naked with strong pelvic movment, and maybe some ritual sex to boot), before the missionary schmucks banned it (and Tikis) and then it was brought back as a long, green skirted, slow snooze fest with all those hypnotic hand movements (like that boring Khmer/Thai crap) it would have been a worthy advisary to Samba, Salsa, Merenge, Mambo/Rumba etc. But not anymore! If you want to try something "good", find yourself a Latina/Afro/Carib dance partner/instructor in Cuba, the DR, Columbia, Brasil (preferably with a big 'bunda') or anywhere else in the Caribbean!

My favorite dance instructor of Rio Carnaval '99!
