Our friends at Snoloha were recently named the number one “slacker friendly business” in America by MSN.COM and STARTUP NATION. To celebrate this honor, Rod and the gang at Snoloha have created a great new “Trop Rock” apparel design paying tribute to the music we love so much. The best part about it is that for every shirt sold, a donation will be made to The Paradise Charitable Foundation, a national Parrot Head organization that donates to worthwhile causes, like parrot heads displaced by Katrina.

So check out Snoloha.com and see for yourself. Tell them JimmyPirate sent you and help out a great charitable organization too.

SNOLOHA… A lifestyle shared by those who live, play, travel, vacation, relax, or simply enjoy life somewhere between the islands and the arctic.
