I just returned from 3 days with Kirsten in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico is like the illegitimate older brother of Hawaii. Sure, Uncle Sam hands them both allowances, but Puerto Rico spends it's $2 on candy bars and throws the wrappers on the beach. Hawaii invests it's substantially larger allowance in tourist traps and glossy photographs of itself. I guess I must have a thing for the self-indulgent older brother, because I'd take Puerto Rico, in all its illegitimacy and intemperance, any day over Hawaii.
