A Funny Thing Happened At Dinner Last Night

Last night at dinner, we were discussing the disastrous events in Japan. Mom commented that she was concerned for her niece who was in Maui, trying to sell a condo. Then she wondered aloud how close Hawaii is to Japan. She said, "My sister told me she could see Japan from Maui. Is that right?" Perry diplomatically said he didn't think so, but I nearly spewed my drink as I considered the source. Of course Aunt Helen could see Japan from Maui!
