Re: The Pilgrimage ..... it's happening

Oh, Mrs. Conch wants to go back to Pahonu for sunset, which is cool ..... Sounds like a fantastic trip, Conch! One thing to point out, and I'm no expert, but I think sunset at Pahonu is hidden by the Ko'olaus? If you're there just to be there at sunset and don't mind not seeing the sun setting, the...

I'm finding it amusing that we can have 3 pages of conversation about Magnum's coffee maker! :shock: True fans!

Re: Magnum's coffee maker

After Hurricane Sandy, we had no power for 2 weeks. We did have gas, but we had to light the stove with a match and make coffee with our camping percolator...which only made 2 cups at a time. About a year later, I bought a 6 cup Corning percolator like we had when I was a kid: http://image0-rubylan...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Agreed, she may or may not have all of the facts straight. But if you think about it...how many living rooms have mirrors on the walls? Ballrooms, yes, they have mirrors on the walls. Plus the candelabras on the wall...again, more indicative of a ballroom. It's also fitting for the period Pahonu was...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Rumor Persists that Obamas Will Live in Magnum PI Estate Post White House Having been on Oahu for over a month, I have to say the locals I’ve chatted with firmly believe it’s all a smokescreen and that the Obama family will be the next residents of the Anderson Estate (no relation, more’s the pity)...

Re: RIP Patrick MacNee

I've been watching MPI since it first aired and have to admit that Holmes Is Where the Heart Is was never one of the memorable episodes from my younger days. But over the years it has grown to be one of my favorites, thanks to Patrick Macnee. Truly one of the greats in my mind.

Re: The Ballad of Magnum PI - Discovered Tune

Great find, BWheelz54! I'd love to know the background behind the lyrics. It seems like the writer is a troubled or confused young man/teen who has written this song speaking to his father. He compares his father to TM in such an interesting & cryptic way. I'm sure the writer in you must conjure up ...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Interesting find Fat Jack!!! I thought the address would've taken you to the door of Marty's private equity firm - Vistria Group, not MERK Capital....I guess that would be too easy in this case. Now we have to figure out how Marty or maybe even his wife are connected to M.C.? The mystery continues....

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Hi all, haven't posted in a while! :D I was just checking the county records and there's a new little tidbit to report. The owner has now been updated from Eve to Waimanalo Paradise LLC, but what's interesting is that the mailing address listed for Waimanalo Paradise is the address of MERK Capital, ...

A belated thanks for the video Kenji & Sam. (Sorry, been offline for a while.) After watching it, I think I'll pass on that hike! :shock:

Re: The Tom Selleck Thread

While watching MPI on Encore Classic tonight they advertised a Tom Selleck marathon on Mother's Day, Sunday 5/10. It's a mix of TS movies and MPI episodes. They called it something like "All Day Tom for Mom" :lol: http://www.encoretv.com/schedule

Re: Must see spots in Oahu for an upcoming trip

I hiked this trail a few weeks back and REALLY enjoyed the views from the launch area looking down on Pahonu. No hang gliders, but a few people were up in kites sailing in the wind so that was an added bonus. The views of Rabbit Island and the Makai Pier were excellent! Neat to see a puka up there ...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Just thought I'd share this tidbit of info that CalHwy sent me after he had toured the estate, and found that it was going to "another" bidder: Hey 308GUY, Did CalHwy happen to find out what the bloody :higgins: cement slab is in the turtle pond? I pm'ed him last week but he hasn't picked it up. Th...
