When me and mom say Don Ho, we both stood in the autograph line afterwards. Her conversation with him went like this:

"Aloha!"
"Aloha! What's your name?"
"(tgl's name)."

You said Ho. I missed his show in Hawaii. Darnit.

I have learned somthing humbling.

Nobody here has a clue who Don Ho is. Not even the Canadians I polled. I've sung Tiny Bubbles for everyone I know here, whilst miming ukelele-playing. Many, many blank looks.

It was all over NPR yesterday morning; got me through the 4 hours of gardening in the rainy, chilly temps.

I still have that flier. Thank you (Epoisses Mom).

If all you got is blank looks, your previous performances must have been fant-asmic.
