Farewell MPI Special Series "Aloha Magnum"

#1 Post by Rembrandt's Girl »

I've found a special series that was published in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin (April 1988) when MPI was drawing to a close called "Aloha Magnum".

First articles in the series.....

Glad everyone is enjoying them! I don't know about you guys but they really take me back. I've got more miscellaneous articles I'll be posting. :D

By the way, does anyone know who the "now-deceased (1988) famous comedian" was that TS was annoyed at?

Hi Conch,
You're probably right with Dick Shawn.
Dick died while on stage........
