Yah, It Makes Knucklehead Sense

"Grandpa, are
you a Tata?"
"Why do you
ask my little
Lee hee mui?"
"Well, I'm just
looking at how
you dress...You
got a nice Aloha
Shirt on but you
got on some
bust-up shorts
and slippahs.
I can't believe
you wore that
at a party."
"Well, my little
Reeses peanut
butter cup, you
will find that being from Hawaii is pretty much a license to dress
anykine. I'm sorry that I'm embarassing you. You will find that it
is something I will do a lot as you grow older. And yes, It's true
that I am a Tata, which is Ilocano for Lolo, but you will find that
people expect you to dress anykine...if you're from Hawaii.....
does that make sense to you?"
