Where the blankety blank have I been?

Posted on June 30, 2009 by Jawwad

I moved to Tahiti. Didn’t like it too much. It was too hot and everything had sand in it. Then tried out Hawaii for a few days, but I can’t surf to save my life and these tropical paradises are someone else’s vision of what the ideal temperature in paradise should be like. What is good for Tom Selleck and Lilo is not necessarily good for me.

Just came back home Monday to find that we had a multi-million dollar, opportunity of a life time, buyout offer that was snuck in while I wasn’t looking. But since my post retirement dream was a cross between Tahiti and Hawaii and since both of them are too hot for me to handle, I have decided to stick it out here. Atleast till they discover portable air-conditioning or till Hawaii is able to afford a glacier or two.

I am serious, the answer is No.
