What You Like Know?

Okay, the election is — for better or worse — history. So it seems a bit silly to still have the HawaiiStories Survey asking you about your vote. Whether it's Coke v. Pepsi, Aloha v. Hawaiian, or something more serious, let's have some suggestions for future questions for this oft-forgotten widget.

What's the best solution for Oahu traffic problems?

Answer: License plate number rotation.

Best local news?

Answer: KITV at 5:30 with Pamela and Gary. Particularly their killer banter at the end of each half hour program. Shoot Dick Alguire and Auntie Woobie.

How much Christmas shopping have you done already?

Answer: I only gift-wrap love. If you want to buy some surplus love that I will force myself to spare. It's $5.oo/per spoonful. Only cash accepted.

Favorite island to vacation?

Answer: Sand Island. Amenities include...

Paper or Plastic?

Answer: I had a good one but I forgot...darn.
As a replacement...when you walk your dog, plastic is de riguer.


P.S. Who starts these things anyhow?

Who starts what things?

Actually, Ron, I wasn't looking for answers to questions, just questions. (Though "license plate rotation" isn't an answer I'd have thought of!) See, HawaiiStories has a survey on the main page - look up and to the right. Right now it's asking if you'll vote for Bush, Kerry, et. al., a question that's pretty moot now. So, we need a new poll question.

And heck, if we can get lots of good poll questions, we should be set up for months!

Thanks, Kane, for your set. Any other suggestions?

From running those polls in hawaiithreads it's useful to have a none of the above or don't care choice in them.

As far as solutions to traffic choices, what happen to TheBus.

Or better yet what ways to improve TheBus system.

Hows about which of the main characters on Lost will bite the bullet. Or better yet which one will almost bit the bullet. You can exclude Charlie, Shannon and maybe Clair.
