"Picking about..." 'Obama da Dog'

Obama Da Dog gets involved in many political scenes on the Cosmic Garden Isle...

Call us 'Nitpickers, Nat-pickers or even  No-see-um pickers, all that is wanted is to better the cause at hand.

There  are clouds of thousands of  nits and nat's this time of year all over Kaua'i. The other day riding my bicycle in Kapa'a town I rode through a swarm of nat's, they covered my shirt, face and sunglasses, they got all in my hair and mouth, it was not a fun experience.

Gnats are actually flies. They go by numerous names inclusive of punkies,Buffalo gnats, Buffalo flies, eye gnats, black flies,hippelates flies, no-seeums and just plain old nats. Most Gnats bite.

Open dismantling from  my bicycle I thought of  Glenn Mickens and Alfred Lauretta (two local nitpickers, or watchdogs as they prefer to be called....) exchanging barbs about what  defines a nitpicker, as I began removing and picking off of my body  all the nit's and nat's, does this make me a nitpicker or a natpicker?  I  actually prefer no see-um-picker....

Whether your a nitpicker, natpicker, or no-see-um-picker, all pickers want one thing, to better Kaua'i, or their host city and any other thing they happen to be picking about.
