No longer a need for Jewish people to eat Chinese food on Christmas..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen' (Blog #2 for this day)

Lawrence Butler stands on Kuhio Hwy inviting everyone from Millionaires to the needy for
a free Christmas dinner at last  years Chicken in A Barel free Christmas dinner.

No longer a need for Jewish people to eat Chinese food on Christmas.

People enjoying last years free
Christmas dinner...

The big question this time of year is why do my people (Jewish people) eat Chinese food on Christmas?
It’s a tradition that started since most Chinese people are not Christian and do not celebrate the holiday. Therefore those in the restaurant business stay open when literally everything from shopping malls, movie theaters, bowling alleys, sporting events, public libraries, public pools, even grocery and drug stores are closed on Christmas.

Christmas day, where will you be eating? I will be at  Kapa'a Chicken in a Barrel!. They say Jewish people (my people) eat Chinese food on Christmas, not me. I like Chicken in A Barrel. Here's why;

It is the owners Mike Pierce and his Ohana's  way of giving back to the community, free Christmas dinner for all, not just the needy. 

The Coconut wireless reports there will be  close to 400 pounds of turkey,” 300 pounds of mashed potatoes and  all the fixings; stuffing, corn, green beans, salad and were hoping they have the same ono-licious cookies they had last year. 

Whether your a multi-millionaire, homeless, or a Jewish person sick of Chinese food on Christmas,  all are welcome!

Mahalo Nui Loa and Mele Kalimaka to the generous folks at Chicken in A Barrel.

Obama to hopefully meet Obama..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen'

James "Kimo" Rosen is the proud father of Obama,
 Obama da Dog that is!

Editors note,
Every year since taking office President Obama has spent Christmas and New years with his family vacationing in Honolulu Hawaii, the home of his youth. This blog was sent to Honolulu Staradvertiser as a potential letter to the editor.

Obama to hopefully meet Obama

Aloha President Obama,

I know you're visiting Honolulu for the holidays and will most likely either see this blog or be advised of it by one of your staff that looks for  clippings like this.

Every year since you were elected I have been hoping you would visit the neighbor island of Kaua'i so I could introduce you to my dog  named after you.

I have been a supporter since day one and am proud of all you have accomplished, taking out Osama Bin Laden, affordable healthcare, the decrease in gas prices, the upswing in the stock market and fewer unemployed.

One of the few things left on my bucket list is for my dog Obama to meet President Obama, and of course I would enjoy meeting you too.

Mahalo Nui Loa for all you do for Planet earth. I am proud to call you President!

Mele Kalikimaka. (Merry Christmas)

P.S.S.
The Honolulu Staradvertiser emailed and said, they do not publish open letters. I therefore re-submitted the following edited version of the above blog.

That may be hard to do since I live on Kauai and do not get off island much, however a guy can dream.

I was heading out to Costco for my Monday weekly routine and have never seen traffic backed up so far on the Kapa'a bypass. Less than a mile into the bypass before the first bridge with 20 mph signs, traffic was at a standstill. I have been in less traffic that delayed me an hour. This was well over an hour delay. I immediately turned around and breathed a sigh of relief. Please politicians we need more roads. We cannot keep building and promoting tourism with the same amount of roads we had in 1960. We need more roads before anything else... HELP!
