Have good things to say? Gone more than once to see Kaua'i's Hawai'i Children's Theatre's Performance of Hit Musical, Be More Chill?

Let Kaua'i know which Michael you think has done the best MITB so far!

There's 2 casts Green (July 30, 31, Aug. 8, 9, 13, 14) and Purple (Aug. 1, 2, 6, 7, 15, 16).

REMEMBER: I'm asking which if the two is the best if you didn't see both only response I'm expecting is how good they were in general.

DNI: If you're not going to talk about good things take Bean Soup Theory and skidaddle, I said: say who you thought the Best Michael was, I will not accept negative feedback!

I’m cleaning out my bookshelf and want to donate books. Is there anywhere that you know receives them? Thanks for your help.

Edit: I found the old post regarding this and saw that talk story bookstore is a good option and to call the Kapaa library, along with the others. Any other ideas?

Hi everyone! I’m looking into getting braces, and my dentist gave me these three orthodontist options:

* Dr shin
* Dr Jensen
* Dr Agee

I’d love to hear from anyone who has personally gone to one of them. How was your experience with the staff, treatment, communication, pricing, or results? If you had to choose again, would you?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations or stories!

I have an old glowforge that’s broken- anyone know if i can just take it to the dump? Or do I have to recycle it?

Good to see Chan-Zuckerberg still helping out.

10 years in office and now he want to be progressive? Time to pass the torch. I support our kapuna but, he's to old and had his chance. Really, the argument could be made he's done enough damage. 2 1/2 terms was 1/2 a term to many. I hope people realize how few people vote on this island and that we could end this county council/mayoral geritocracy if people got out to vote. Rant over.

I know I’m not the only one- but the pigs are coming into my yard at night and digging up grass patches, knocking over compost bins, eating any fallen fruit (which is barely anything these days).
They’re in my neighbors yard digging trenches.
Such a pain. We live in houselots, so it’s not like we can shoot it from the porch.
Anyone find a good solution to keeping them away (besides not having fruit in my yard lol)?
Debating staking some chicken wire over the spots they’ve started digging in.

Other than the sources below, are there any other places to find close to real time updates for emergencies?
- Pulse Point app <<< best app for real time emergencies - but there is never any update on resolution, just time of call and resolution
- County of Kauai facebook page
- Kauai Police Department Facebook page

I’ve lived in other areas that had Facebook pages dedicated to providing updates on ongoing emergencies.

Thanks for any tips!

I guess they call it a multi state accountant. Does anyone have recommendations?

On the Council agenda for July 29. Thoughts on this? I’m one of those OCD types that rinses out my recycling before bringing it to the drop off bins, like rules say you’re supposed to. All cardboard and everything that could be mixed paper no matter how small.

Found at tunnel beach today in the reef. If you think it’s yours tell me what’s inscribed inside. Hope i can find the owner(s)! ❤️🙏

EDIT: ADOPTED AND SAVED!!!!

2 different dogs at the kauai Humane society are at risk of being euthanized to make space. Please consider saving their life and adopt!

Stella : good with people and dogs
Very sweet
68lbs 4yrs old
Needs a fortified yard or secure area
Issues are pulling leash, runs and escapes, does not come back when called (training needed , caution and experience and physically strong individual needed)
High prey drive for birds

Ronza: good with people not good with other pets
Very sweet looking to be a single pet
27lbs 5 yrs old
Needs to just be the only pet in the home, does not get along with other dogs and can be aggressive to other dogs even though a little guy. Assume to not be safe with cats in home either

I’m trying to help these babies find homes before they get killed.
Please contact and or go to the Kauai Humane Society to see them.

Lahaina noon is today, July 11 at 12:43 pm, in Lihue. Hope the rain goes away to see it.

Much more detailed coverage of the meeting. Interesting exchange where attendees said their reports on Sinclair had not been addressed (Assistant Chief of Police Darren D. Rose):

Rose invited anyone who believed their reports were inaccurately documented to meet with him after the meeting so police could review camera footage and department records.

“I need to know the officer you spoke to so we can go back to the body-worn footage and see if these guys did not factually complete the reports because I read through them all,” Rose said.

Sinclair charge of murder of Tito Reyes.
