I'm getting married on Oahu this August and am trying to do things as low budget as possible. I'm looking for any inside local tips on where to get them. I don't mind making my own arrangements or anything, I'd just like to get everything done as low budget as possible. Worse case scenario, I may just make silk flower arrangements for me and my bridesmaids in LA and just take them on the plane! lol. Thanks!

My fiance and I have been arguing about Palin's future in politics, and I just wanted to pose it to the masses here:

Do you think Palin will be the Republican nominee in 2012 or do you think she'll get blamed for McCain's loss and basically become the pariah of the party.

His argument is that the Republican base votes in the nominee and that the base adores Palin. I think that they'll blame her for the loss of the presidency and the party will turn on her so fast it's gonna make her head spin.

I was just wondering what you guys thought...

Oh, and anti Obama and anti McCain talk is irrelevant at this point.

In lieu of the earthquake in CA yesterday...and the increased chances of a really big one happening in the next few years, I was just wondering what the best advice in EarthQuake safety?

I'm not thrilled with the whole "duck and cover" idea. What I'm afraid of most is being in a building when it collapses. I know running outside can be dangerous. I live/work in an area with very few power lines and no other buildings around. My apartment is brand new and borders a parking lot and an empty lot, and my work building borders a park and a sod farm.

There seems to be so much contrary information in the internet, and I was just wondering what you guys thought.
