Aloha Fat Man Says...Collection (Paperback)


"What, Where, and How Much," controlled the author's lifestyle for seventeen years living in the Far East. This epic journey started with him working for our Uncle Sam sailing Chinese junks in the South China Sea. Leaving Uncle Sam started "smuggling" heavy boxes and people, money was hand-over-fist and a small fortune was banked.

Hong Kong "night life" with "Long Dress Dancers" and "Sing Sing Girls" was the tease of plenty men and every seaport town had it's own specialty of offering "silk and lace" to the big spenders. You'll be able to read and feel the night breeze of Singapore and see the steam from the food carts of Buogy Street, watching the "Playgirls on Parade."

Returning to Hawaii where the author grew up in poverty on a sugarcane plantation, he became a successful real estate developer, developing many projects, several of which changed the skyline of Honolulu.

Romances along the way led to "heartaches" and the pain of mind and feelings started the writing of poetry...the Sun "Peeking" stole the night..."My Little Hummingbird" sat on air...and happiness was a new pair of shoes and a "Love Mate" I didn't want to lose.
