Going somewhere nice? They live in Lahaina! What a bunch of fucking tools.
as nice as it is here there are some drawbacks. Aside from paying one and a half times for goods and dealing with constant threat of natural disasters (earthquakes, hurricaines, volcanic activity and potential tsunamis). The worst thing that some people go through is rock fever.

When you are so far from terra-firma and so isolated from urban society. It can break some people. I an understand why those guys want to get off the rock.
