Love those 1920's pics, where did you find them?
Did a google image search, using the word "Waikiki"
You never know what you'll find under a waterfall

The Hawaii tourism board should be paying you by the post!
That much money would throw me into a tax bracket. I would become a blip on our Draconian Gov'ts radar.

How does this dispatch chore work? I am picturing that one of the drivers does it on the fly, and that you pass the chore around from night to night? But how do you do it from within the car?
The landline is "call forwrded" to the company cellphone. The driver who has that night's "duty" answers the phone. Asks the appropriate questions,
"Where is the pick-up?"
"What is the destination?"
"How many people?"
He then uses the cab's two-way radio to dispatch the call. We are not computerized.
The driver/dispatcher also must keep up with the location of every cab, who is where in the queues and take reservations for the next day. All this is done while also doing their duties of driving a cab.

Hi Wil
Are you sure you are not a woman?
Hmmm. Let me check...
If my Gray's Anatomy is correct, then I am all male.
I learned to multi-task a long time ago. One of my first jobs was as a short-order cook in a diner that had greasy windows and a flickering neon sign that said "EATS". I was also a radio disc-jockey back in the days of 45 rpm records. Paid for my first year of college.
Both of those occupations required me to do a hell of a lot of things at the same time. And they had to be done correctly and in a timely manner. Radio stations don't want "dead air" and construction workers wanted their breakfast NOW!
ANOTHER ROYAL CAB
Snagged this one from San Francisco Taxi
Compared to the Crown "Vic" behind it, those London style cabs are really small. Look to be the size of a Scion.
ARTISTIC LICENSE
Did anyone else notice any thing wrong with this picture from yesterday?
I'll post the answer tomorrow.
Later.....

Only thing I notice is that the wave isn't breaking, but isn't there a point just before a wave kicks up that everyone starts their ride? Not sure if the outrigger is surfing or just in a following sea. Picture seems plausible to me. You got me.
The Woman is the only one wearing shoes on the surfboard?

The guy on the far board either had two heads and lost one or is carrying his head on his shoulder.
Btw anyone ever see the movie with Ray Milland and Rosie Greer. Ray was dying and had his head grafted onto Rosies shoulders, funniest thing you ever saw.
You're all wrong! The woman's shoes don't match her outfit, obviously!

I am laughing so hard, the tears are rolling down my cheeks!!
Love your post today, especially your responses and I love the comment answers to your question about the picture.
I don't know the answer, except that everyone in the picture doesn't seem to have a hair out of place - can't wait to find out the real answer. xx
Hi Wil
Have spotted it - they are all surfing AWAY from the shore!!
Am I right?
