#74 I worked at the Dole Cannery during the summer for one month in 1963 and made $1.25 per hour. The luna was one irritating guy. Some of the fore ladies would wear perfume. Perfume and the smell of pineapple does not mix. Whew….!!!

I ATE PINEAPPLE EVERYDAY DURING 3 SUMMERS; ALL THE TABLE FORELADIES WERE SAVING THE NATURALLY-SWEET PINE FOR ME…TEXTURE OF APPLE, SWEET LIKE MANGO, WITH TANGY TASTE OF THE PINEAPPLE: REALLY, REALLY OOOONOO!! EACH OF THE TABLE FORELADIES DIDN’T REALIZE THAT ALL THE OTHERS WERE ALSO SAVING ME SWEET PINE.

I remember eating pineapple chunks sold in sandwich bags from ice bins in front of the various shops and then head back across the street to Waikiki beach..in the 60’s.
Delushous.
But met a young man in the 70’s who after just one year working in cleaning out the
chemical bins used in the pineapple fields, turned into a wrinkly old man—amazing
sad fast decline in his health.

Worked in cannery in the 60s. virtually all the high school kids did. $1.60 /hour. Hard work but learned how to work hard. Today, the kids don’t know what hard work is. But, I have not eaten canned pineapple since.

Then between college and grad school worked in Waikiki Hotel bar. Had to hand cut 4 large boxes of fresh pineapple per day to put into the tropical drinks. I’m good at cutting pineapples, to say the least. I love fresh pineapples, but still cannot eat the canned ones.

Hey, ST, enjoyed your notebook features today on Beau Yap, my current favorite player, and Trayvon Henderson, one of my picks for having a break out season next year.

Love Beau. He’s 100% intensity on the field 100% of the time, but seems to be pretty mellow off the field.

Trayvon is physically scary. What a beast.

68–The fact he is doing well against a defense still trying to learn a new scheme does not mean he will win games.

The qb position will be a question mark until the season starts
