Merry Christmas! Looks like all your snow melted!!!
Just so everyone knows... The Hawaiian word for Christmas is essentially a transliteration of "Christmas" into Hawaiian, which has a limited set of consonants, HKLMNPW. Sometimes the substitutions aren't or can't really be close. Also, in Hawaiian, every consonant is followed by a vowel. So, "Ch" becomes "K", throw in a vowel, "r" becomes "l", throw in a vowel, "st" is rendered "k", followed by a vowel, then we get a direct use of "m", followed by a vowel, then "s" becomes "k", and finally a vowel - Kalikimaka. You can have fun with other words that are taken from English in that way. For example, there are no rabbits in Hawaii, but the word for rabbit is transliterated as "lapaki".
BTW, nice car!

Did Israel Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole do a version of White Christmas? That would be cool.

I knew it would happen.
