Aw, I've never been so mad at Hawaii in my life: "49 states dusted with snow; Hawaii's the holdout".

Wouldn't that have been cool, to have snow in all fifty states?

Although it probably would have screwed up filming on Lost - and we don't need that.

Two stories coming out of Hawaii today, both having to do with Disney.

First we have an official name for the new non-theme park resort Disney is building in Ko Olina - it's now "Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa".

"Disney Names Ko Olina Resort 'Aulani'".


Aulani is obviously a Hawaiian word - in English it means "the place that speaks for the great ones" or "the place that speaks with deep messages".

The resort opens in the fall of 2011.

Next we have more news about Pirates 4 - apparently it'll shoot in Hawaii this summer for a May 2011 release date: "'Pirates of the Caribbean' to shoot in Hawaii".

Wonder if they'll use any locations from ABC's Lost? Jack Sparrow in the Hatch? Creepy.

Although the Black Rock would make some sense ...
