I have a new American co-worker - L. I say American, but I actually think she immigrated there from Loonyland!
From Loonyland she moved to Kalihi, a small town outside Honolulu, Hawaii. I know this place very well as I’ve also lived there once upon a time.
L: Oh, so did you ever see the ghost of that Japanese woman who used to stand by the petrol station?
Me: No, I never saw her.
L: Really, you never saw her? She was there all the time.
(This should be read in the same tone as I would ask someone: Really, you didn’t know that grass is green?)
Me: Must not have been paying attention.
L: Oh, but what about on Pali Highway, did you ever cross over?
Me: Yes, yes. Many times.
L: So did you see the ghosts of the 100 Hawaiians up there.
Me: Hmmm…no I don’t think so…and that’s strange because I used to hike up there.
L: My father worked for the IRS and there were lots of ghosts in their offices.
Me: This I can see.
She’s completely bonkers – I love her!
