People on the mainland are advised to stay away from Hawaiian style
chili - especially if you're a chili-head. I saw a couple get totally

action.

His expression was what you'd expect to see if the waitress had served
him a live hamster on a plate - a look of alarm mixed with befuddlement.
I could tell they weren't from here because he was dressed like Roy
Rogers. His wife was dressed like Dale Evens. I guess the circus was in
town? You'd think that these circus people would be more savvy about the
foods of other people.

Maybe the the couple was looking for Trigger...???
WIKI:
"After the original Trigger (Golden Cloud) died in 1965 at Roy Rogers'
new ranch in Apple Valley, California,..
Rogers arranged for Everett Wilkens of Bischoff's Taxidermy in Los
Angeles (now Bischoff's Taxidermy and Animal FX in Burbank, California)
to preserve and mount the horse...
The hide was professionally stretched over a foam likeness of Trigger,
and the resulting mount was put on display in the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans
Museum when it opened in Apple Valley in 1967...
