BEST MAI TAI

Mama’s Fish House

Thankfully, more than one of you offered original, creative and highly intelligent ideas. There were two votes from two different readers for “the guy at the Banyan Tree” as best community activist. Another reader offered that the best food served after 2 a.m. comes from “the dumpster behind Roy’s.” And we had to smile with one reader’s vote that the best thing about the Maui County Fair was that “no one has died… yet.” But special recognition must go to Reeny of Haiku. With absolutely no outside coaching, she offered that the best thing to do on a first date was “get naked, read Maui Time Weekly.” And she also voted “Holoholo Girl” as the county’s best elected official and “LC Watch, thanks!” as the best community activist. Such votes were both highly astute and much appreciated. Now why couldn’t more of you be like Reeny? Then again, that’s probably like asking why more of you can’t be Superman. Like George Washington, actor Lee Majors and that fat guy who lost a bunch of weight eating Subway, Reeny is an American hero, and we salute her. And now, we bring you our annual Best of Maui issue, instead of our usual coverage of news, music, the arts and that one column where we talk about bars that got knocked upside the head by The Man. Now get on with it and read this thing, cover to cover.

Best of Maui

She has two hands, yet only one Mai Tai...

Wh er

Everybody knows America loves a winner. We know we love a winner. Our family and friends certainly love a winner. Do you love a winner? Hmmm? Well, do you? Hey, buddy, this ain’t no freakin’ multiple choice test! Do you or don’t you?! Of course you do. WINNER WINNER WINNER WINNER!!!!!! Damn, that was tiring. Anyway, the issue you’re holding right now this very second is the product of months of painstaking work devoted to finding the best that Maui has to offer. Hence the name. Best of Maui. Jerk. Anyway, a few months ago we printed up a bunch of ballots and told you people to tell us what you liked best about our little island. And hundreds of thousands of you did, which is weird because we didn’t print nearly that many ballots. In fact, that’s way more than the number of people who live here… Okay, look—we aren’t some highpriced “scientific” polling outfit that works every day with stuff like “mathematics.” All we know is that more of you sent in ballots than we could count, and that’s good enough for us. You brave souls selflessly stepped forward to offer suggestions on things like best bartender, local band and place to get a bowl of saimin. Incredibly, a few of you chose to remain anonymous. What was the problem, Deep Throat—afraid we were going to turn you in to the Five0 for voting Paragon Salon the best place to get a haircut? But far more disturbing was the fact that many of you geniuses opted to exercise your inalienable right to vote by choosing “Jimmy Buffet” as best concert, “Wal-Mart” as best place to buy a bikini and “Subway” as best sandwich shop that doesn’t have “Quizno” or “Subway” in its name.

Mama’s serves the best Mai Tai in town. And they should, since they’ve been doing it for 31 years. Still true to owners Doris and Floyd’s concept of the Old Hawaii jet set, Mama’s has the kind of lounging lush atmosphere that could make even a cup of vinegar taste like vacation. Behind the smiling Polynesian tiki glass and the floating orchid, these Mai Tai’s are just as lethal as they are sweet. The original Trader Vic’s rum and the “magic of the bartenders” makes for one hell of a hangover. Two of these? You’ll be curling up in the corner, fetal position, happily cooing “Ma-ma, Ma-ma…” 799 Poho Place, Paia, 5798488. [EG]

health food store. It’s also a good way to mix with the neighbors. At the Swap Meet, I met a cute Filipino woman who sells great green papayas for my Som Tam, delicious squash and even chayote, my favorite tropical vegetable. Local farmers sell many types of Choys—the Asian green leafy vegetable used in stirfries—long beans, avocados and limes. This is the place to go to get the best prices on the exotic or the mundane fruits and veggies. Saturdays, 7 a.m. to noon, on Puunene Ave. in Kahului, 877-3100. [JG]

tempura for many, many years. But I’ll bet you didn’t know they serve breakfast or that you can go there for lunch. Their meals come with miso soup and namasu salad, and they have so many specials it doesn’t matter how many times you’ve been— there is probably something that you haven’t tried yet. Oh, and the green tea ice cream is the bomb. 47 Ka’ahumanu Ave., Kahului, 871-6977. [JR]

will, the perfect margarita really depends on the tequila you use. Forget the sweet and sour mix—try a Don Julio Reposado with Cointreau and fresh lime, or a Herradura Añejo with Gran Marnier, a Sauza Hornitos and… the list goes on, really. But rethink the way you’ve been drinking your “blended with no salt” ‘rita and start taking it seriously! Milagros does. 3 Baldwin Ave., Paia, 579-8755. [SC]

BEST MARGARITA BEST MOM & POP Milagros COFFEE PLACE You don’t have to be a Anthony’s Coffee Company Inc.

It’s not only a great place to get coffee but also an excellent people-watching, flirting and gossip-mucking joint—as all great mom & pop coffee places should be! Anthony’s is a bit cozy (read: cramped), so you’re more likely to get your socializing on while you’re waiting in line, but they do have fabulously

fluffy pastries to go with your fresh brew and eye candy! 90 Hana Hwy. Unit C, Paia, 5798340. [SC]

BEST WINGS

Bamboo Bar & Grill Served with a lemon wedge and a ramekin of salt and pepper, these aren’t the same slippery, saucecovered chicken wings you’ve eaten over and over. In fact, Bamboo’s juicy, mouthwatering wings aren’t smothered in any sauce at all. These fat little deepfried meat treats come to you crispy and savory on a bed of cabbage. These wings are exceptional downed with happy hour beers or on their own. And they typically go fast, so keep an eye on your friends. Those scavengers will gut a cow if you let them... 505 Front St., Ste 130, Lahaina, 667-4051. [JR]

Crepes, glorious crepes! Good for breakfast, lunch or dinner, crepes somehow make you feel more sophisticated. And they’re light so you automatically feel less guilty. You could probably stick Cheez Whiz in a crepe and it would be delicious. On second thought, maybe not. But fortunately, Café Des Amis feels no need to do that. ‘Cause that would be really dumb.

No matter what drink I’m up to for the evening, frou frou cosmos, obliterating mind erasers or tasty vanilla stoli’s and soda, Ray “Boom Boom” Chavez can pour and please like the master of Hapa’s that he is. I guess that is why Maui Time Readers voted “Boom Boom” number one when it comes to the best bartender on this rock. Or could it be his nifty bar tricks? The devilish smile? I hear he’s legendary on Ultra Fab nite at Hapa’s. Whatever the reason, I couldn’t agree more. Want a sharp cocktail? Want the whole experience? Head to Hapa’s and look for Ray, he will satiate your thirst like no other can. 41 E. Lipoa St., Ste. 4A, Kihei, 879-9001. [JR]

More than simply a cold serving of fish, the ceviche at Horhito’s is wonderful, all citrusy, pink and exquisitely perched in a martini glass with thin tortilla chips. It’s Chef Jorge Galaviz’s specialty, and since he usually bartends, you can thank him personally. Oh, and just to change things up, order a chocolate milk along with it—Galaviz makes it the old-fashioned way, by squirting thick streaks of chocolate along the inside of the glass. Cold fish and colder chocolate milk—delicious! 41 E. Lipoa St., Kihei, 891-6394. [AP]

Raw Pie is just one of Mana’s gourmet specialties. They offer the best vegetarian and vegan variety on the island. And yes, they cook some of it, too.

Okay, let me get this straight: best place to meet your future ex, best place to break up AND best happy hour? Interesting, I see how all this is developing. First, you suggest to your significant other that you both go have a couple happy hour cocktails—perhaps a couple scotch and sodas. Then after your third drink—their second—and over the loud top 40 hits the DJ is spinning, you lean over to your date and do the whole “it’s not you it’s me” and the “let’s just be friends, okay?” thing. Generously, you buy their next drink that they promptly throw in your face. And as the door is hitting their ass on the way out, you notice a cute blonde—or brunette or bald person, whatever floats your boat— across the bar and you smile

No matter what time of day, the place is always packed with people pawing for their pineapple smoothies, coconut chips, sugar cane juice, shave ice and blocks of banana bread. Maybe they think it’s the last stop ‘til Hana? Regardless, the stand does sell some mighty fine fruit—passion, mango, avo and some exotics you won’t even recognize. They’ll even slice it for you on the spot. But don’t even think about squeezing before you buy. If you do, no fruit for you. Located near Mile Marker 2 on the Road to Hana. [EG]

BEST PLACE TO EAT AFTER 2 A.M. Denny’s

When I was growing up, Denny’s was good for two things. First, to trip on acid and draw in notebooks and, second, to do dine-and-dashes. Handily winning the category as the only place to eat after 2 a.m., Denny’s could safely be called a culinary slum. The aggressive florescent lighting, the see-and-say menu selection, the rotating banana crème pie in the glass case (in the Kahului Denny’s, this case is called “Fruitful Endeavors”). There is something just so American about Denny’s. Perhaps this is its staying power. Like the voice of Paul Harvey on the A.M. dial, Motel Six, Wal-Mart, Route 66 and sincere smiles, Denny’s is firmly entrenched in American cultural geography. 430 Kele St., Kahului, 873-5550; 2763 S., Kihei Rd., Kihei, 879-8600.

They’ve got wraps and salads, but their best offering is the Surfer’s Club, with turkey, avo, sprouts and provolone on a wheat roll. Oh, did I tell you it’s nine feet long? Well, not really, but it feels that big when you’re trying to take a bite out of it. Had one the other day—when I was done, the equivalent of a side salad had dropped out of it and onto my plate. And it’s not just the sandwiches that are gigantic and great. “Mr. Sub win anything this year?” Associate Editor Samantha Campos asked me, to which I replied that they had, for best sandwich. She nodded, then carried away her immense salad with tuna. 129 Lahainaluna Rd., Lahaina, 6675683. [AP]

You never know what to expect.

You could toy around with the cool jukebox or video games, chat it up with the locals or shoot the shit with a passing tourist. The SandBar also has live jazz on Mondays, various DJs and live bands throughout the week, so the crowd differs vastly from night to night.

Blink and you’ll miss it. But half the fun of trying to find it is discovering all the other little gems along the way. You could literally spend the whole day in Wailuku just contemplating the bizarre existence of seemingly random shops and storefronts. There’s a record store on the corner of Market and Main, a used bookstore, a pawn shop, a shoe store, a popcorn store, a leatherie, a farmers market, a coffee shop, an historic theater and a trophy maker. Eventually, you’ll get to the crème de la crème of small town bowling alleys. Maui Bowling Center, 1976 Vineyard, Wailuku, 244-4596. [SC]

BEST ART GALLERY Maui Hands

Ever lie awake at night wondering where you can buy yourself some nice Hawaiian basketry? Or perhaps you’ve been searching for that perfect piece of nature jewelry to accessorize your Saturday night eveningwear? Well, wonder no more. Maui Hands has the best in all that’s hand-spun. From 275 participating Hawaiian artists, you’ll find paintings, prints, ceramics, jewelry, baskets, iron and copper sculpture, photography, blown glass and more. Owner Panna Speas says she has no talent, but she sure is good at showcasing the talent of others. Find Maui Hands in Paia, Makawao, at the Hyatt in Kaanapali, and soon on Front Street in Lahaina.

BEST KARAOKE Sansei

I got hooked on Karaoke during my recent trip to Japan. Now I’m hooked here. Sansei is a far cry from the Kyoto karaoke boxes. At Sansei they put you on stage out in front of everyone and people get really into it. Locals and tourists of all stripes, fueled by great draft beer specials and half-off sushi after 10 p.m., passionately belt out tunes. Even celebrity guests like Pink have shown up to see what they’re made of. Sansei offers thousands of tunes to choose from, in various languages even. They have the new and the old, although I always go with the funkiest ‘70s tunes. “Le Freak” by Chic never fails to get the party going. Ahhhhhh, FREAK OUT! 115 Bay Dr., Unit 115, Kapalua, 669-6286; 1881 S. Kihei Rd., Ste KT116, Kihei, 879-0004. [JG]

Why get stuck in your one little convenient but sundrenched town when there’s still so much to discover out there? Like, the sleepy little town of Makawao. You can opt to sip a cappuccino at Duncan’s or Casanova’s deli while watching the occasional drizzle outside, walk around window shopping the numerous little boutiques and art galleries, sign up for a glass blowing session at Hot Island Glass, or waste the afternoon drinking tequila shots with the locals at Polli’s or Stopwatch!

He fell in love with the underground hip-hop culture and started promoting shows with the first DJ Battle at the Hard Rock Café last year. Since then, he’s brought the likes of Atmosphere, Psychokinetics and Gershwin DLX to Maui, among others, as he said, “to give people an opportunity to hear something different.” And he’s humble, too. “It’s nice to know that I do something for a living that makes people happy at the same time,” said Twist.

fish-smelling theaters are distracting during those serious love scenes in films like Harry & Kumar Go To White Castle. Maui Mall Megaplex is Maui’s newest theatre complex so that means we haven’t had enough time to contaminate it with our soda and popcorn, which apparently, over time turns into that rancid cat peefish smell. The MACC’s classy Castle Theater was an obvious runner-up, but they’re only a part-time movie theater, unfortunately. 70 E. Kaahumanu Ave., Kahului, 249-2222. [SC]

BEST THING TO DO ON A FIRST DATE Dinner

Seriously, this is the best you guys can do? Dinner? Lonely single people who have no lives somehow manage to eat dinner. This is a first date, we’re talking! You only get one chance at a first date. You’ve got to do something exciting, daring—even crazy. Dinner… It’s like I don’t even know you people anymore. Amazingly enough, some of you managed to jot down at least some wit. “Cliff jumping,” “take a bath with healing crystals” and “the hokey pokey” were some of the more noteworthy entries. Oh, and to the young woman who voted for “Sugar Cane Train,” you can reach me during normal business hours at 661-3786. [GT]

BEST THING ABOUT THE MAUI COUNTY FAIR The Food

The Maui County Fair comes but once a year, filling the Kahului air with the sound of children, the bright lights of the Ferris wheel and the wonderful smells of the food court. There are so many booths, each with dif-

ferent local specialties, you could come all four days and never eat the same food twice. It’s no wonder Maui Time Weekly readers voted the food the best thing about the fair. And what food— Smoke Meat, Chow Fun, Flying Saucer, Coscaron, Malasada, Fried Ice Cream, Kalua Pig, Lau Lau, Taco Bag, Chili ‘n Rice are just some of the things you can pick up on a good night. Don’t forget to bring some home, too. [JR]

BEST RADIO STATION Mana’o Radio

That’s KEAO 91.5 on your frequency-modulated dial. Their music library is beyond eclectic and their disc jockeys are all volunteers who love music but hate commercial radio. It’s a low-power station, so people who live on the West Side and Hana are screwed. Of course, anyone can listen to the station stream live at www.manaoradio.org, but that’s kinda difficult when you’re driving to work. [AP]

BEST PLACE TO BUY GAS

Royal Dutch/Shell This one’s a love/hate thing for me. On the one hand, Shell offers the best value for your petrodollar. They put in some secret additive that gives you better gas mileage. No, really, I swear—I get like 100 miles more than if I put in some other brand. And my friend swears that she, too, has experienced this phenomena, but she’s a criminal defense attorney licensed to practice law in the state of California, so who knows if she’s telling the truth. Anyway, Shell is also a giant multinational corporation that controls most of the resources of Nigeria and has been accused of standing by and even benefiting from that government’s death squads and execution of justice activists. So… good gas mileage vs. corporate fascism… I’m thinking, I’m thinking! Shell gas stations located everywhere. [AP]

BEST CUTE DISHWASHERS

Milagros Food Co. There is a never-ending flow of attractive dishwashers to this popular Paia eatery. It’s an amazing phenomenon, really. In fact, at one point there was even talk of a Milagros Dishwashers Calendar. When I worked there, we used to demand that the male dishwashers work topless after the super hot female dishwashers would work in bikini tops. The cooks were happy, though. And that makes for happy food, which makes the customers happy, which makes the waitstaff happy. Conclusion: The world is happier with cute dishwashers.

What started off as just a silly open-ended question to add a little spice and style to the ballot ended up beautifully reflecting the state of Maui’s social life. If there’s a thread that runs through all three selections, it’s gotta be “convenience”—are there better merchants for toiletries, booze and smut? Given enough planning and effort, it’s even possible for a person to hit all three in succession— first Long’s for a little protection, Moose’s for a little action, then Paradise for a little “stimulant” to make up for the complete inability to get any action to use the protection.

When I was a teenager, the Ho’okipa pay phone was a listing in my address book. You could call down there and get the surf report, find your friends and see what was up on the North Shore. Today payphones don’t ring anymore and it seems everyone has a cellphone, but the action is still hot at the payphone by the pavilions. Plenty of quarters are dropping into this North Shore oral communication hub. Groms are hooking up, surf advisories revealed, party directions doled and secrets are divulged over this old black handset. If only it could speak… [JR]

Spa Grande is where I imagine the rich and famous go when they kick the bucket. Yeah, it’s that good. Let me put it to you this way: You walk around naked all day, dipping in a mud bath here, or a cascading waterfall there. You plop down into pools of papaya, bathe in bubbling Japanese Jacuzzis and steam to the scent of eucalyptus. In between, your personal attendant scrubs you down with Hawaiian exfoliants. Massage? What massage? If you want a massage, save your money and go anywhere else for half the price. But if you’re looking for an all-day experience, grab some cucumbers for those eyes and go to Spa Grande.

They have integrity, they’re innovative and well trained—kind of like… well, no one you’ve dated, but still. Paragon is the salon that won’t steer you wrong. Hey, that rhymed! No, but seriously, Anna and Kimber are hair stylists with a conscience—not only will you look fabulous when you leave the salon, but days later, you’ll be practically kissing your mirror, too. See, being the hair professionals

that they are, they know that us lazy people probably won’t be spending the time they do on our hair so they sort of plan in advance for our incompetence. It’s a pride thing, but the result? You’ll be looking way better than you have a right to, while Anna and Kimber live with the knowledge that they have created yet another coiffure codependent. 1160 Makawao Ave., Makawao, 572-0141.

BEST RECORD STORE Request Music

You know the cliché—it was best displayed by Jack Black and John Cusack in High Fidelity—Music snobs who think only in terms of relevant song titles, who work in record stores and make fun of your purchases. But while Jerry in Lahaina, and Andrew, Twist and Jerry in Wailuku, do know way more than the average Joe about music, they won’t openly diss your selec-

tions. Not to your face, anyway. They’ve got access to the rarest of CDs, albums and videos that they’re only too happy to order for you. And when you ask them an obnoxious question like, “Uh, who sings that one song that goes like this?” they’ll probably know the answer—they just may not tell you right away that they know. ‘Cause they’re sick like that. But unlike the bigger record stores, they do actually care about your burgeoning audiophile needs. 10 N. Market, Wailuku, 244-9315; 991 Limahana Pl., Lahaina, 6618855. [SC]

With the proliferation of twohour spots and a whole army of crazed traffic cops out there with

Perusing the shelves, I found titles like Maui Youth Adrift: A Study in Juvenile Delinquency on Maui (1942), Paia: Evolution of a Community and Ethnobotany of Hawaii. Those are just the titles I had checked out, but there are walls and walls of books, documents, historical texts and recordings that make for a fascinating afternoon of browsing. In addition to Hawaiiana, the Wailuku library has a formidable collection of periodicals, everything from Artnews to Workbench. In 1986, the

library, which was the first in Maui County, was added to the National Register of Historic Places. 251 High Street, Wailuku, 243-5766. It’s open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays except Thursday, when it’s open from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Don’t ask—it’s a library thing. [BS]

BEST PLACE TO BUY A DILDO Love Shack

You know how it is. You have needs and sometimes your loved one just isn’t around. Or you’re really

Or you have a craving for junk food or cigarettes and realize that sexual stimulation activates the production of a natural amphetamine that regulates your cravings. Or you have a headache or menstrual cramps and… Okay, okay, you get the picture. The very approachable Love Shack people will be happy to help you determine which dildo is right for you. Or if you already know if you prefer rubber to silicone, representational (penis-shaped) vs. non (smooth alien dick), girth vs. length, then Love Shack is still the happy place for you.

For the last 22 years, owner Kim Ball and his staff have been involved in the community, sponsoring a dozen events each year.

Island Ink

Maui Time readers have voted Island Ink the best tattoo shop the second year in a row. The bohemian nature of its Paia location just makes you want to come in and get inked. But it’s their great customer service, clean shop and amazing group of cocky artists that make up the heart of this establishment. My sister’s four tattoos have been done here. They inked my dad’s largest body piece, too. Now I may be a 33-year-old virgin when it comes to tattoos, but I’ve got big plans. My husband my protest, but full sleeves, big torso pieces and thigh tattoos are all part of the plan. Is it any wonder I’m saving my cherry for Island Ink? 100 Hana Highway, Paia, 579-9461. [JR]

She’ll take care of any hair situation from side burns to bunny tails with a keen professionalism that keeps your modesty intact and the pain to a minimum.

BEST PLACE TO BUYA BIKINI Maui Girl

So I’m hungover Saturday morning in Paia, and I need to get in the water badly, but don’t have a bathing suit. I make my way into Maui Girl, the pinnacle of bikini shops. Debbie Wilson has been designing and selling suits for years here, and her service is impeccable. She immediately told my haggard self about the mix and match tops and bottoms policy, which is so cool. In mere moments I had tried on five different bikinis and walked out the door wearing one of Debbie’s own designs. The ocean at Baldwin beach never looked so good. 12 Baldwin Ave., Paia, 579-9266.

Maui Lifestyle

While other stores on Front Street come and go like the flocks of tourists who visit our shores, some like Maui Lifestyle continue to survive. Since 1992, this humble tourist shop has sold an array of aloha wear, board shorts, sunglasses, hats, handbags and even the semiinfamous Woody shirt. With lines like the ubiquitous “Get Lei’d” to “Nice Papayas,” who wouldn’t love to own or give away such a unique local novelty? Even Queer Eye guy Carson would approve of sending a “Show Me Your Rod” tee to distant relatives just to show how much you care. It’s the perfect store for the hapless foreigner who needs to get a Maui life. 658 Wharf Street, Lahaina, 667-0764. [RV]

BEST COMMUNITY ACTIVIST Nikhilananda

We had lots of good choices here. Lucienne de Naie of Maui Tomorrow, Dean Wong of the Maui AIDS Foundation and Lahaina Town Action Committee executive director Theo Morrison all earned multiple votes. But the clear winner was Nikhilananda of Huelo. He’s a longtime Green Party activist, organizer and, on the side, works as a substitute teacher. He often speaks at public hearings dealing with water usage and land development. He’s also run for office steadily over the last decade, never winning, but always standing for the left-wing, environmental crowd. And he writes lots of letters to The Maui News—so many that he’s written letters criticizing the way they edit other letters he’s written. Anyway, he’s a standup guy. [AP]

Nick & his ‘stache

BEST LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIAL Jo Anne Johnson

She’s sat on the Maui County Council representing West Maui since 2000. In her first term, this Republican called for moratorium on development, an end to fluoridation of water and a ban on exhibiting dolphins. The first two remain, but in 2003 Johnson succeeded in getting the Maui County Council to ban the capture and containment of dolphins. She is unabashedly slow-growth, having voted against Smith Development’s “fast-tracked” Pu’unoa Village, which promised to bring far more traffic to West Maui than affordable housing. She’s voted against Seibu’s plans to develop Makena into a Wailea-sized resort. And she’s even denounced people who don’t farm but live in the agricultural lands of Laniupoko. Let’s see, have I missed anything… oh,

and she opposes building a breakwater at Ma’alaea to allow harbor expansion. Yeah, that pretty much qualifies her as best local official. [AP]

BEST PLACE TO WATCH THE SUNSET Makena

Swim out as far as you can from the shores of Makena towards that setting sun before you. Catch your breath and then dive down until you find yourself floating peacefully in 30 feet of deep blue, fully enveloped in the whale songs that fill these waters. Gazing up from the depths, you’ll be able to see that sun refracting through one point in the water. Push off the bottom and swim as fast to the surface as possible, all dolphin-like. When you hit the critical point of exploding through the water as the sun is wading in, notice the million bursting droplets of silent light that cascade around you and give thanks for this blessed place—while it still lasts. [KBL]

BEST PLACE TO WATCH THE SUNRISE Hana

The night before Thanksgiving, I camped at Kipahulu with a friend and the sunset marvelously illuminated the Big Island. I didn’t think I could get a better view than that, but that morning I awoke up to a magnificent sunrise. The sun inched its way out of the ocean, painting the sky orange, red, and purple. The clouds on the horizon took fire, showing off their divine design. The sun took its place in the morning sky and I swam in the pools, giving thanks on my best Thanksgiving Day ever. [JG]

BEST REASON TO WATCH AKAKU PUBLIC ACCESS TV

The Hemowai Brothers Public Access television was made for shows like this. Filmed on Molokai, the show is basically two local guys who drive around and tell Haole

where to get off, often in the crudest possible way. Periodically through the episodes, the guys will show various sayings like “Aloha Means Goodbye” and “No Move to Hawaii!” over beautiful shots of the sunset. But these guys are sharp. They spend as much time making a case for just land reparations as they do cursing Haole and flipping off the camera. “We’re trying to be the best haole we can be,” one brother observes of the

Hawaiian people. “That trips me out. We gotta change that.” Of course, sometimes they get off topic—you’re not going to find this exchange on your network or cable channels: Brother who looks like Fred Durst: “The Lakers represent America. Only in America can you have [an alleged] rapist as your leading scorer.” Brother who doesn’t: “You were just telling me earlier that Kobe [Bryant] was set up!”

favorite places on Maui, and it is conveniently located just at the edge of town. It’s a really easy walk along the tourist circuit, keeping to the paved trail that winds down to the taro patches by the stream and up to the little house at the viewpoint. Most tourists seem content keeping to this path, watching locals jump off the bridge, taking pictures of the Needle and educating Iao Valley themselves about Hawaiian Iao Valley is one of my history by the informative signs. But the best part is cruising through the jungle, smelling ginger blooms, eating guava and climbing trees. And a dip in the cold stream is the ideal place to recharge your batteries. [JG]

But the best thing is that you can watch these two knuckleheads just about anytime you want. Just go to search www.akaku.org, through programming for any of the three Hemowai episodes, then schedule it to air on Channel 54 at the most convenient time for you. [AP]

Surprisingly, Maui Weekly—half of which is owned by Everett Dowling, who’s made no secret of his intentions to get into the Makena development action—hasn’t written any pro-resort articles and editorials in a while.

Maybe it was the three miles of slippery downhill sand carrying a 20-pound pack of snacks and liquor.

Oh, the romance of the beach: The mystical ocean and waves, strolling hand in hand in the sand, watching sunsets on beach blankets with your lover. Obviously there are plenty Maui Time romantics out there because the beach got the votes on this ballot. If you’re going to go all out and get married, why not take it to the beach? Maui’s got lots of great beaches and coastline to choose from that can accommodate a wedding party from two to 200. Who knows, maybe all your guests can breathe the love in the air and make a love connection of their own. Beaches located island wide for your wedding convenience. [JR]

But you, the readers, have and expertly voted that Kapalua has the best golf courses Maui has to offer. Experts? Right. I mean, you’ve seen one golf course, you’ve seen ‘em all! There’s a bunch of holes—what, like 18 or so?—some obstacles, like a big sand pit and a random lake or two, some hills, a sharp turn here and there, and the most well-manicured greens. Wailea’s a close second. The Bay Course, 300 Kapalua Dr., 669-8820; The Village Course, 2000 Village Rd., 669-8835; The Plantation Course, 2000 Plantation Club Dr., 669-8877. [SC]

Here we use the term “best” pretty loosely, since it’s also the only nude beach we’ve found that isn’t Little Beach. The beach is in Paia—big surprise there— between the main Baldwin Beach parking lot and the new Paia Skate Park, concealed from the highway by open space and sugar cane. It’s surprisingly easy to get to—if you park in the Baldwin Beach lot, just walk south along the shore until you find it—park over by the skate park, head north. Now keep in mind this place is very small and not all that private—on weekends, a lot of locals like to pitch tents and camp about a dozen yards away. Then again, you don’t have to scale any lava cliffs to get to it. [GT]

Lahaina

The only reason you people voted for Lahaina is because of the fireworks show. Well, that’s a pretty good reason, though anyone who’s seen the fireworks shows at Disneyland or the Statue of Liberty or the Tulahoma County State Fair knows Lahaina doesn’t exactly light up the sky. But it’s a decent show and the kids love it. And isn’t that what the Fourth of July is all about? Of course not. The Fourth is about grilling dogs and getting smashed and raising hell. It’s the Fourth for chrissake! It’s America’s birthday! What do you think all those old white guys in wigs were talking about 200 some odd years ago, anyway? In conclusion, Freedom equals good, brutal totalitarian dictatorships equals bad. Happy Fourth! [AP]

BEST BEACH PARK Kamaole III

What, are you guys nuts? This beach won last year. Then-Maui Time writer Ian Houston even called it his favorite place for “checking out weird man boobs.” Yeah, young Ian had problems. I think he ended up getting deported or something. Anyway, Kamaole III in Kihei is an okay beach—it’s big, with lots of grass and lots more people. But on an island that has Ho’okipa, Ka’anapali, Baldwin, Makena, Launiupoko and Wailea, why you people go with Kamaole III is beyond me. Maui is nothing but gorgeous postcard beaches! And we’re not even talking about Napili Bay, the red sand beach in Hana, Palauea Beach, D.T. Fleming Beach, or Airport Beach. But if you like big crowded beaches next to major highways, so be it.

Anyone up for Bocce Ball?

BEST PLACE TO PLAY BOCCE BALL Chang’s Beach

Yup, this quiet hidden stretch of sand south of Wailea between the Makena Surf and Five Graves offers the best Bocce Ball opportunities. The water has carved small coves in the shore, making for interesting terrain. The place is beautiful and, as an added bonus, there aren’t a lot of people around. That’s really nice because you don’t want to throw the pill and hit some little kid. [AP]

Newsflash: Speedo’s went out with the ‘70s. Actually, they weren’t even cool back then, but people had lower standards when it came to style. Yeah, size might matter, but for the love of God, not everyone wants to see yours. Didn’t your daddy ever tell you to put a bun around that burger? Do us all a favor and cover… it… up.

I’m sure the Sports Page is a better place than most to watch Monday Night Football. But, I’ve got to ask— why would anyone waste an afternoon in paradise inside a sports bar? First of all, it starts at 3 p.m., which is prime beach time. It’s a lot better to be surfing or hiking through the jungle. And Monday Night Football attracts too many dudes. Take a girl on a date or support local music if you have to go out on Monday night. Then there’s the fact that NFL players get paid millions of dollars to live out their dreams. More people ought to be creating their own lives and living out their dreams, and Maui is a great place to do it. Living vicariously through pro sports and talking trash in a bar won’t make it

Join a canoe club

Forget the health benefits of exercise. Forget the reverence to Hawaiian culture you pay when you continue the tradition of outrigger canoe paddling. Forget the sense of community you get from joining any one of the many fabulous canoe clubs around the island. All those wet, glistening muscles working in unison in the sun? All that sweaty, gasping determination in the unending quest for victory? Yeah, team sports, baby! Who needs a smelly old gym when you can ogle the pumped men and women of your local

No one knows about this place. NO ONE. Okay, maybe lots of people. But it is a sweet spot. Just park your car at the north end of the Pali, near Mile Marker 11 and jump in.

SHOWTIMES

MOVIECAPSULES MAUI FILM FESTIVAL’S CANDLELIGHT CAFÉ & CINEMA Wednesday, August 4 No movie this week!

New This Week MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE - R - Political Thriller - Denzel Washington plays an American Gulf War vet whose strange dreams a decade after the war ended lead him to believe he and his squad were kidnapped and brainwashed as part of some conspiracy to take over the U.S. government. Hey, wait, that sounds familiar. Oh yeah, it was this other movie called… The Manchurian Candidate, starring Frank Sinatra and that woman from Murder, She Wrote. I loved that film. You people suck. Also starring Liev Schreiber and Meryl Streep. THUNDERBIRDS - PG - Action/Adventure - What is this, the season of unwanted remakes? How dare someone remake one of my favorite cartoons ever, with Liono and Snarf battling that evil mummy Mum-Ra… oh, wait, that was Thundercats. Oh yeah, Thunderbirds—that really, really long miniseries on that priest who gets it on that starred that guy who just came out of the closet. What was his name… Richard Crenna? Richard Harris? Richard Chamberlain! Yeah, why would someone want to… That was The Thornbirds? Oh. So what was the Thunderbirds? Some British 1960s puppet show where these guys flew around in bitchen spaceships and rescued people? Cool! Stars Bill Paxton, Ben Kingsley and a bunch of kids. THE VILLAGE - PG - Drama/Romance/Science Fiction/Fantasy/Thriller - Geez, throw in “Comedy” and it’s a film for everybody! And I thought it was just the latest in creepy flicks by M. Night Shyamalan (see Sixth Sense, Signs). But I guess he covers that in the “Romance” portion of this movie. So The Village is about a village (hence the title) with a close-knit community (hence the “Drama”) who go through their normal routine, knowing that evil creatures reside in the surrounding forest (ahem, “Science Fiction-Thriller”). There is one town rebel, though, who ventures into the woods and pisses every one off (oh, that’s gotta be Joaquin Phoenix!). Also stars William Hurt, Sigourney Weaver and Adrien Brody.

Now Showing A CINDERELLA STORY - (PG) - Teen/Romantic Comedy - Another fable-filled fantasy about a super cute and really nice high school chick (Hilary Duff) who is tortured by her tacky stepmom and catty, low-self-esteem-compensating, jealous stepsisters, while she covets her online Prince Charming, the popular quarterback with the secret sensitive side. Will he find the cell phone she left behind just before the clock strikes midnight? ANCHORMAN - (PG) - Comedy - The pretty much always funny Will Ferrell plays Ron Burgandy, a know-nothing know-it-all TV news anchorman in San Diego who’s all comfy in his burgundy blazer and fullon 1970s moustache until a new, intelligent reporter—played by the lovely and talented Christina Applegate (Kelly Bundy, to you Married with Children fans)—threatens to take his job and kicking while in the act of jumping, we’re guessing the studio strayed a bit from Verne’s original storyline. THE BOURNE SUPREMACY - (PG13) Action/Adventure - Think James Bond, but pissed off in a Fugitive kind of way. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon at his emotionally emptiest) is an exAmerican assassin who’s tired of killing foreign leaders and just wants to live with this German girlfriend (Franka Potente) in peace. But his former employer isn’t too keen on the retirement plans. Yeah, that was pretty much the first movie, Bourne Identity, but who cares. Also stars Brian Cox and Julia Stiles. CAT WOMAN - (PG) - Action/Adventure - Halle Berry stars in the telling of the popular DC Comics anti-heroine of a lady in a tight, black, leather bodysuit. The story of Catwoman starts with a rather timid woman who, by twist of fate, is granted the amazing powers of the feline—self-cleaning and mouse-catching notwithstanding. She also encounters villains and villainesses (here, deli-

ciously portrayed by Sharon Stone), as well as a complicated love interest (hellooo, Benjamin Bratt!). But hey, let’s face it, this movie is all about the cat suit. DE-LOVELY - (PG13) - Drama - A musical biopic on American songwriting legend Cole Porter (Kevin Kline). A deeply paradoxical man—he loved his wife (Ashley Judd) very much, but engaged in more than a few homosexual affairs—Porter found the time to write classic after classic as though it were no more difficult than ordering lunch. More musical than many musicals, the movie also includes contemporary artists like Elvis Costello, Diana Krall, Sheryl Crow, Natalie Cole and others belting out Porter’s best hits their way. DODGEBALL (PG13) - Ben Stiller (Zoolander) is the hilarious head of a big fitness palace that threatens to overtake a small local gym. Vince Vaughn (Swingers) leads a group of social misfits to battle the big evil corporate of narcissism in an epic game of, well, Dodgeball. FAHRENHEIT 9/11 - (R) - Documentary - This is the one that has the right-wing neoconservative War on Terror types screaming. What, they can dish it out but not take it? Cowards. Anyway, Michael Moore—who in the past has brilliantly skewered Corporate America (Roger and Me) and the NRA (Bowling for Columbine)— shines a light on all the economic and political connections between the Bush and bin Laden clans. HAROLD & KUMAR GO TO WHITE CASTLE (PG13) - Comedy - A corporate dude (John Cho) and his medical school pal (Kal Penn) smoke a lot of pot one night and then decide to drive through late night New Jersey searching for White Castle hamburgers, which are these little square hamburgers they sell on the East Coast that are supposed to be really good but are, in fact, too small and bland to provide any real sustenance. Anyhoo, hilarity ensues, which is unusual because the guy who played Doogie Howser co-stars as himself. HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN - (PG) - Action/Adventure - Third in the Harry Potter dynasty of children’s books, this storyline evolves around Harry’s inability to tame the beast within him, as he goes on the run, not realizing that he is also being chased by a renegade wizard played by sexy master villain Gary Oldman (hello? Bram Stoker’s Dracula?). I, ROBOT - (PG-13) - Science Fiction/Adventure - It’s got a bunch of twists, there’s religion, there’s even some Matrix-esque fighting and Will Smith has the classic one liners. Tons of Hollywood influence and special effects with the concept of man-made consciousness, or the idea that machines can have emotions. Wonder if the sequel will be called We, Robot? Oh, there’s a hot girl in it, too. I WILL SURVIVE - (Not Rated) - This film will make you laugh or cry or shrink down in your seat in fear--or perhaps all of the above. It’s a story about something that happened and the people that had to deal with it. But mainly, it’s a story about life—a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. You know, like this blurb. KING ARTHUR - (PG13) - Action/Adventure - Mix one part Braveheart with one part Pearl Harbor, stir in a few

handfuls of foolishness and sprinkle with stereotypical characters and you get this giant Jerry Bruckheimer “history” picture. It’s got a boatload of knights running around with plenty of swords and bows and arrows to keep the kiddies happy, but none of the pesky blood and gore that used to sluice down so many a medieval gutter. With Clive Owen and Keira Knightley. THE NOTEBOOK - (PG13) - Drama/Romance Directed by Nick Cassavetes and based on the bestselling Nicolas Sparks novel of the same name, if the preview to this movie didn’t darn near choke you up, you probably should just forget about it. It’s a love story recollected by an older man (James Garner) and woman (Gena Rowlands) about a young couple (Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams) who were tragically separated. What happened to them? Go see the movie. But first, hand me a tissue, will ya? RIDING GIANTS - (PG13) - Documentary - The complete breakdown on the hows, whys and all-important whos of big wave surfing—guys like Dave Kalama and Laird Hamilton who’ve made names for themselves towing behind jet skis into monster waves at places like Mavericks in California and our own Peahi (aka Jaws). Helmed by Stacy Peralta of Dogtown and Z-Boys fame, the film has all the makings of a surf classic. SHREK 2 - (PG) - Animation - This green ogre (Mike Meyers) marries this princess (Cameron Diaz) and live in swamp with their donkey friend (Eddie Murphy). The princess’ parents happen to be the King (John Cleese) and Queen (Julie Andrews) of Far Far Away and they’re pissed so the dad plots to have the ogre, Shrek, killed by Puss ‘n Boots (Antonio Banderas) so that the princess can be freed up to marry the Fairy Godmother’s son Prince Charming (Rupert Everett), who we all know doesn’t exist anyway so what is she thinking?! SPIDERMAN 2 - (PG13) - Science-Fiction/Adventure Basically your classic superhero popcorn flick, but with way more style and substance than you normally find in the genre. Picking up where the first movie left off, Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) is racked with uncertainty over his job, secret life of costumed crime-fighting and inability to have a more or less normal relationship with Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst). It doesn’t help matters that he also has to put away the wretched but dangerous Dr. Octopus (Alfred Molina). THE TERMINAL - (PG13) - Drama - Steven Spielberg directs Tom Hanks as some Eastern European guy who gets stranded in an airport terminal because his country ceases to exist. It’s a light-hearted film, which is odd considering it’s based on a true story about a guy who ended up killing himself because he couldn’t take spending weeks and weeks in a sterile prison listening to the words “United Flight 167 now boarding at Gate 32. WHITE CHICKS - (PG) - Comedy/Crime - The deal is that the Wayans brothers play two African-American FBI agents who figure the only way to protect two young white hotel empire heiresses is to dress in drag and cake their faces with white makeup. Just remember that you were warned. MTW

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS by Sam Campos

The Tyson Fight

Italian Hawaiian Myth Art

Friday, 3 p.m., Ale House in Kahului; Rusty Harpoon in Ka’anapali

Friday, 8 p.m. at Hapa’s

Friday, 6-9 p.m. at Piero Resta Studio Gallery (behind Chevron station on Hana Hwy.), Paia

Yeah, that big scary palooka with the gold teeth, little girl voice, rape conviction and that intriguing tattoo thing on his face otherwise known as Iron Mike Tyson has got himself another bout. This time it’s with Danny Williams, whose 31 wins—26 of them knockouts—and just three losses show he’s no tomato can. Though with a Tyson fight, you never can tell who’s going down—or who’s going to need surgical treatment. Both establishments will be charging covers—$5 for Ale House, $10 for the Harpoon—but they’ll also keep happy hour specials going until 6 p.m. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

THURSDAY

Russian Salsa

Giacomo Basolu is a young Italian painter with a particularly fascinating interpretation of Hawaiian creation myths (see painting on left). Since we’re on the island of Maui, of course, he illustrates exceptionally well the fantastic story of the demi-god, Maui, and his ancient exploits. He masterfully captures Maui’s fantastical prowess in a series of elaborate works. The show opens to the public on Friday and runs until August 5. [JOE GATTO]

ChaCha the night away at Hapa’s on Friday July 30 to benefit Russian orphans. The Salsa for Orphans Latin Dance Party Benefit has become the best regularly occuring salsa dancing party on the island and it is for a good cause. Doors open at 8 p.m. and the $10 cover gets you a free lesson at 8:30 and supports the kids. There will be fantastic prize items like gift certificates, services (massage, facials, lessons, etc.), and CDs. Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo are performing live so the dance floor will definitely be caliente. Maui’s top dancers will put on an impeccable performance as well. [JOE GATTO]

Sucka Free Jam Friday, 10 p.m. at the Hard Rock Café It’s a night of independent hip-hop with another mega jam of Maui’s best underground MC’s and creative artists, like Desmond D., Lanika, HevBWyld, Assault Squad Rider and the Cafeteria’s Demune and The Mole, with Gomega as the live back-up band for the groove.

Bansuri Maestro Saturday, 8 p.m. at Makawao Union Church

Canoe for Kerry Saturday, 9 a.m. at Hanakao’o “Canoe” Beach, Lahaina This is a fundraiser rally for competitive canoe paddler (and nonsmoker!), Kerry Workman, who was diagnosed with lung cancer last year. In addition to six-man canoes, the race is open to one- and two-man kayaks and canoes. Cost to enter is $20 per paddler. Registration begins at 7 a.m. For more info or to donate, call (808) 875-8964.

DAY

Bansuri is a bamboo flute used in North Indian classical music, and G.S. Sachdev is the master of it. Everyone from George Harrison and Ravi Shankar to the New York Times has sung his praises, inspiring such disturbingly seductive descriptions as this, from Alternatives Magazine: “Sachdev’s natural simplicity and crystal clarity transcends all boundaries of technique and form. He caresses your mind with the sweet voice of his flute, leading you into worlds of ultimate pleasure, beauty and peace.” Ultimate pleasure? Sweet…

The Who Wednesday, 7:30 p.m. at A&B Amphitheater, MACC Wow—we really do get to see one of the most important rock bands of our time! I mean, this is the band that performed at the Monterey Pop Festival in ’67, Woodstock in ’69 and Live Aid in ’85! This is the band that used to smash their instruments at the end of every show! The Who!! They started all that rock star showboating. Well, I don’t know if we can expect that this time around, but I’m pretty sure we can expect stuff like “I Can’t Explain,” “Substitute,” “Who Are You,” “Behind Blue Eyes,” an acoustic version of “Naked Eye,” “You Better You Bet,” “My Generation,” “Pinball Wizard,” “See Me Feel Me,” and ahhh... “Magic Bus.” Call 242-SHOW.

SIGNLANGUAGE

BY CAERIEL CRESTIN

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Whoa. I’m getting a tan just standing next to you. Putting out this much shine must really be straining the fusion reaction that is your heart. However, don’t shut it down. Those who can’t take the glow, the UV radiation, or the heat may back off for a bit (unconsciously spreading your notoriety even further) but trying to flip on the dimmer switch is like trying to stop a sneeze—definitely not a good idea. Keep on sparkling this week, sweetheart; those who can’t take it can just get the hell out of the way.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) The stakes just keep getting higher, don’t they? Keep breathing and maintaining your equilibrium as you climb to ever loftier heights. It’s dizzying and bewildering, but there’s no need to sabotage the process; you’ve got at least one trustworthy companion who’s going there with you—and who’s just as excited and freaked. If you really don’t want to do this, you don’t have to. You can always back out now, admit to yourself that not everyone is cut out to climb Everest. But the thing is, you are. To give up now would be such a waste. Take a break at the next base station for a while, before ascending further, if you must. But don’t climb down now.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Everyone focuses, frequently, on the dual nature of Geminis and Pisceans, but skips over that aspect of your personality. In some ways, you’re even more divided than those other, often wish-washy, signs, because your duality isn’t contained entirely within yourself. Libras have an extreme (almost psychotic at times) adaptability; you mold yourselves to fill in whatever’s missing from a situation, or more commonly, a relationship. One of the main questions every Libra has to answer, eventually, is which parts are essentially “you” and which can be swapped or sacrificed to facilitate a greater good. Take it seriously; this week you’ll be asked whether you want to give up or hang onto one of your favorite things, and you’ll have to live with your answer for a long time.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Your average Libra is so adaptable that she loses all sense of self when exposed to an extreme person or situation. You’re almost the exact opposite; you stand your ground even in the face of a natural disaster. You force others to either get used to you, or get lost. This kind of strength can cut both ways, however—and this week you’re likely to get slashed, because by being inflexible you’ll end up missing out on something (or someone) you actually really want. The kind of compromise being asked of you isn’t much of a concession, if you really think about it—so please at least do that.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) You may be a fire sign, but I think you’re more like the embers left over once a roaring campfire has died down—especially this week, when your smolder is even hotter, but less flashy, than usual. In other words, it’s a good time to make the moves on that tragically frozen-hearted beauty you’ve been wondering about, the one who’d be scared off by a big crackling blaze, but might welcome the thawing warmth of your gentler glow. Sometimes you may feel a bit outshined by those tempestuous Aries and your radiant Leo brethren. This week, you’ll have the chance to discover that being low-key is a strength and advantage, not the other way around.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Plants bloom to signal their receptivity. Birds dance and wave brilliant plumage. Butterflies generate long-distance pheromones, and cats put out a stink so fierce it has the whole neighborhood yowling. What’s your signal to the rest of the world that you’re feeling more open than you have in ages? This isn’t the time for subtlety; this kind of vulnerable approachability is so rare that it’d be a shame for interested parties to miss out because they didn’t notice. There are a number of horny suitors out there, dying to get into your pants, heart, or head (or any combination of those), so if you’re not getting what you want or need, it’s because your flowers aren’t big enough, your dance not wild enough, or your perfume too discreet, not because there’s no one interested.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) With the Full Moon illuminating your sign this week, you’re fucked. Forget flying under the radar as you’d planned; you’re pinned under a glaring spotlight of attention—one might even call it scrutiny. Don’t squirm. You’ve mostly been on the up-and-up these last few months, so your minor transgressions won’t earn you too much guilt or punishment. Just don’t hope to get away with anything that’s not strictly by the book; you’ll get nailed. So doing things on the sly is out; that leaves doing them out in plain sight, which, when you think about it, can be just as fun (and in some cases, way naughtier).

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Emotional parasites abound this week, so beware. Limit your vulnerability by being a human cactus: utterly self-sufficient, low-maintenance, resilient, and slightly unapproachable. Those with kinder intentions, who you’d actually welcome into your life, will most likely be charmed, not daunted, by your prickliness, and are patient enough to wait until you’re feeling more receptive. As for the spiritual leeches, they give up quickly. The hungry little vampires can’t wait around to get to your sweet juju; they’ll run off in search of easier prey. In other words, you’ll know them when you see them—preferably walking swiftly in the other direction.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) No matter what happens, you seem to retain an enviable sense of humor, and a consequent ability to have fun. Even when dark and heavy shit goes down, you manage to see the funny side of it, or at least maintain your faith that there is a funny side that will eventually appear. Most of the rest of us have a hard time maintaining that ability to smile in the face of tragedy, despair or existential ennui. This week, look around for those who need the kind of uplift that only you can provide, then give it to them.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Be Kali this week. Destroy the old to make room for the new. There are only so many open slots in your life, and some of them are, quite frankly, currently held by people and time-eaters unworthy of the privilege. Cut them off. You have standards to uphold, after all. And even more importantly (and urgently), several Persons and/or Opportunities of Quality are clamoring outside the door to your life, awaiting entrance. Cull the crowds inside to make some space. Do it now; if you wait until next week your unwanted guests will have chained themselves to the furniture, and you’ll never be able to evict them.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Symbiosis is your keyword this week. Think of the squirrel, busily burying nuts for future consumption. It forgets about some, which ultimately sprout and become new sources of food for the rodent’s descendants, as well as benefiting the tree they came from. Or perhaps you’ll be more like the bird that gets fat picking parasites off the beast that could kill it, effortlessly, and might, if it weren’t so useful. There’s an enviable opportunity this week to generate a new—if not affectionate, at least mutually beneficial—arrangement this week (with your landlord, boss, or neighbor, most likely) that will dramatically improve your quality of life. Don’t miss it.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) With those who’ve made the cut into your inner circle, you’re generous and nurturing to a fault. The rest of the unwashed masses, however, you can occasionally be a bit stingy with. This week, broaden your concept of who’s “family” to include at least a handful of folk who might otherwise miss out. Some of them will of course be ungrateful brats, totally undeserving of your kindness, as you suspected. But at least a couple will end up being so cool and sweet that you’ll wish you’d figured out how supremely wonderful they were ages ago, and wonder how you missed it before.
