So, I'm not clear... would the store meet with your approval if it were hidden, but sold pineapple corers, or just hidden? Is it more authentically Hawaiian if it sells the pineapple corer? Is it less Hawaiian because it sells ginsu knives? And stays lit up at night? Is it more or less Hawaiian to offer retirees in Leilani a place to fill prescriptions that is closer than Keaau? I ask only because I am such a newbie haole, and don't know the proper way to go about being an authentic Hawaiian. (By the way, did Kamehameha invent the pineapple corer? Or was that Prince Kuhio?)
