Leaheys end their radio show
The Leahey and Leahey radio show on KUMU-1500 AM — starring Jim Leahey and Kanoa Leahey — apparently has ended. Their last show was last week Friday.
“They’re definitely done for now,” general manager John Aeto said. “We were honored to have them as part of the show.”
The morning show aired Mondays and Fridays.
Aeto said the Dan Patrick Show will air live this Monday.
Aeto said Bob Hogue will replace Rob DeMelllo on the Tuesday and Thursday morning shows. DeMello cited family reasons in leaving the Rob and Russ Show.

He’s baaack. With a thwack!
Cory Daniel, a former MMA fighter and Castle High TKO linebacker, is enrolled at UH-Manoa and prepared to join the Warriors for training camp. He spent the past couple of years at Arizona’s Pima Community College, where he earned an associate degree.
Daniel took a break to talk story with the Warrior Beat.
Weighty question first.
“When I came back, I was up to almost 270. Now I’m back to the high 240s. I’m trying to peak it out. I don’t want to come out too light. At camp time, I can lose whatever I have to lose. Hopefully, I can play at 235, 240.”
The Knight life.
“It was good fun. We had a good (senior) year. We had a chance to play against Saint Louis (in the championship). We could have won, but it didn’t go that way. We gave the crowd a show, at least.”
Fight club.
“My grandpa was into martial arts. We always grew up playing sports, fighting. (MMA fighter and former Warrior) Falaniko Vitale is a good friend of mine. I always cross-trained with him — football and fighting. As soon as I found out I couldn’t play (Division I football as a freshman) because of academics, I went off to MMA.”
The science of martial arts.
“Not too much bodybuilding. I did a lot of rounds, a lot of sparring. I did boxing training. I did Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, kick-boxing and boxing. It was good. Sometimes we’d go up there and train with B.J. Penn.”
His first love …
“I missed football. After high school, I really wanted to play for June Jones. My school work and my SAT scores killed me. To me, football is my dream, and my passion. After high school, I went to Windward Community College. It was really dead. My dream was far and distant. Typical local boy, playing too much in the ocean and running around chasing girls. I’m getting too old for that.”
His current love …
“My girlfriend is up in Arizona. She goes to U of A. She’s smart. She’s Haole-Filipino. Her dad is Irish. He’s a redhead with freckles. Her mom is pure Filipino. Her dad is an engineer. He works for NASA. He builds bombs for Honeywell (Aerospace). When I talk to him I have no idea what he’s talking about.”
His long-time love …
“I love local food. My brother is the best cook. I love Eggs Benedict and prime rib. I like it cooked medium, a little Ajou’s sauce and horseradish. That’s all you need.”
* * * * *
Lametrius Davis has been working hard to fill the role of physical cornerback.
I’m getting hungry for some prime rib now.
top five and jason, you should be in bed
I should, but I’m finishing some coding for a friend. That and eating a bowl of Frosted Flakes. Darn these midnight snacks.
too much sugar, chew on carrots and microwave some string beans, a lot healthier for you.
Carry over from the last blog entry…
jm2375 — have a safe and fun trip!
Good night everyone!
We don’t have any carrots nor string beans. Anyways, I finished the cereal already. 😀
Aloha Cory..
Another Castle Boy in the house
Wow- ST is busy!
I’m tired!
Nitey Nite and Sweet Warrior Dreams!
Au jus on the prime rib, ST.
Coding is done! Whoo hoo! 🙂
Good night!
I know some bloggers can time-release posts. I’m not that smart. I stay up past midnight.
Lametrius Davis! Well this D is gonna need guys like him to step up and fill the spots that seniors have left behind.
GO BOWS!
is Al partaking in the dark side with Whitey tonight, or should I say this wee hour of the morning. not a peep from the old boy.
too many people farming or running from the Mafia.
54 years ago today, the Magical Kingdom was opened in Anaheim, California…..
http://www.disneylandnews.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=418
Good opportunity for Lametrius Davis to crack the starting lineup.
Corey Daniel looks ready to crack some helmets.
Stephen,
Do you know if Matt Kiel is still gonna pursue the UH Vball team. I noticed he is no longer on the FB roster.
Homey,
I read yesterday you were asking what kind of mind folks think you have?
As Mrs. C would say, “I Know, I Know”
Waverider, you got one thing on your mind..
Waverider, you got one thing on your mind..
You get up in the morning You get up in the morning
You shake the sand from your feet
Dreaming about blue water
You toss and turn all the while you sleep
Waverider, you got one thing on your mind..
Waverider, you got one thing on your mind..
You got one thing on your mind now
Well all through the day well all through the night
You just waxin up your gun now
You headed for that Makaha ride
Waverider — Butch Helemano

“The Next Time I come back here, I’m Cracking Skulls” – Mr. Bender (Breakfeast Club)
A rookie CB with Miami was asked about facing Bess in practice.
Utah is looking for new streams of revenue, and sideline passes will bring in a fair amount of money for them.
boy-o-boy!!!!!, it’s starting to get pretty confusin keeping tract of the goings-n-comings of players??
Garret probably mentioned this earlier, but I’m just reading in my morning paper,(dallas morning news), that former Texas Tech QB, Graham Harrell will join the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL, which already has three qb’s on their team, hmmmm???
Harrell was the NCAA division l career leader in TD passes but was not drafted by the NFL. His workout with the Cleveland Browns did not result in a contract.
(Harrell had to fight the perception that his numbers were the product of Texas Tech’s offensive system and that he didn’t have the arm strength to succeed in the NFL).>sounds ala Timmy Changish, don’t it??..alas, the similar route as well.
Happy Aloha Friday!
I can’t wait until football season starts!
Garret
Sideline passes are built in to the Na Koa ticket program for those with the high price packages. However, additional funds could be raised by offering a select group of season ticket holders a chance to bid on a dozen passes.
Hey Cory, did you enjoy dinners prepared by your girlfriend’s mom that included corned beef and cabbage with a side of kare-kare? My boys are haole-pinoy also and that’s what was for dinner at least once a month.
Hiya Ronnie!
Aloha Socal Friday!
Keep that bullseye dart kit sharpened for a return match. I’m coming out of retirement!
Kekoa,
I think that could be a way to raise a little more money for the UH Athletic Department…
good morning tsaikos!!
it’s good to see the desire to play football again for Cory has made his schooling a priority.
garret & kekoa – to get sideline passes for one UH game, the minimum donation is $600 to Na Koa. this year would be a good year to have something like that since the home schedule is pretty good. my preference this year was Fresno, Boise then Navy.
I remember a few years back that they were trying to limit the people on the sidelines since it was getting out of control. not sure how many more people they would allow down there.
Mornin’ Stretch ~
Yes, I agree. The sidelines are getting a little crowded now with other ‘selected’ individuals down there.
SailorBlue is a happy camper after he donated a boat load of treasure chest coins to Na Koa. You know he will enjoy prowling the sidelines with his Alma Mater in da house!
Sorry about the blue flu…got carried away about my favorite subject…Football, up front and personal!
Good Morning Kekoa, Stretch, Garret, mctruck, and mana alohi.
I’m still trying to get my dad to use my season tickets to go to the Boise game…. He says he would rather watch it on tv, but I told him to DVR it and see it live. My mom would go, but my dad is a little stubborn (hmmm…. that must be where I get it from 😉 )
Great Morning All!
Good luck to Cory Daniel. Keep the dream alive.
Lametrius Davis looks like he could turn quick slants into quick “outtaheas” with his physicality.
Did I mention that it’s now under 50 days until football?
Did I mention that……

Have a terrific day erryboddy.
HiHo…..
Good Morning Everybody! Hope everyone has a good day.

good morning 2U ms. Ronnie,
whooooweeee!!!, don’t look like this,(British)-OPEN, is going to see, Tiger Woods on the weekend???
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
Happy Aloha Friday to all!
Looks like Cory’s gonna help out! Are we loaded at LB or what?!
Davis looks pretty big, can’t wait to see him hit!
Alooooha Kakahiaka!
TGIF and Happy Everyday!
Hail to the Tsaikos!
Okole Maluna! (…it’s just coffee)
Go Warriors!
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Making like Kekoa and heading for the dentist before work.
Today is Tsai-ko day!!!
Kekoa, I would certainly enjoy sailing the sidelines during the Navy game. Do you think I would get beat up for wearing Navy blue on the Bows side? I could probably find a ‘boatload’ of chocolate pirate coins – would that suffice?
Bwahahahaaa…
If everything works out, we’ll have a prize giveaway this afternoon.
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Interesting piece with Cory Daniel & pics of Lametrius.
mctruck….the swinging door, that is the football roster goes through this “coming and going” stuff every year.
some years more than others. many will seek what may be a better fit for them. wish them luck.
i think that through this blog, the host is able to “publicize” those transfers and exchanges on a regular basis. that is one of the greatest things about the warrior beat is that we can get info every day.
I believe it was also mentioned that Cory Daniel has brothers that want to play for UH as well? What’s the chances of that happening?
Congrats to former Rainbow Wahine Stacey Porter who drove in all of Australia’s runs in a 5-2 upset of the 2008 Olympic gold medalist Japan in the World Cup of Softball!!!!!
BC Lions update. BC won.
But the receiver from San Jose State (Rufus Skillern) that played instead of Grice-Mullen looks like he had a pretty good game last night with two catches for 55 yards. One long catch for 46 yards.
Big Wave, 54 years ago today I was working as a busboy in Disneyland, setting up tables for Walt Disney, Fess Parker, Eddie Fisher, Liz Taylor and the likes. On July 15, I was a bar back for Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis on the Riverboat, one of the only times in the early years that booze was in the Park
I miss names like “Fess.”
Excited to see what Cory Daniel can do for the Warriors. MMA fighter? Means he can give out dirty lickings (looking at YOU Kaepernick!!!). Also means he should have super human conditioning and can be running around all day looking for his next victim.
Late post for Zach Masch but I read about how he likes his eggs running all over the rice… mmmmmmmmmm… and wondered if he has yet to discover the pure joy that is the loco moco. Haven’t had one in ages…
Masch is fortunate. He met someone who is letting him stay at a place for a reasonable rate.
I didn’t know this until a couple of days ago, but you only receive a scholarship for the summer session in which you’re enrolled. Because the second session runs into training camp, most are encouraged to take the first session. But that leaves about a three-week break before camp in which a player is on his own to pay for food, lodging, expenses. That’s why most Mainland players choose to return home during the break.
That’s not an ideal situation. If, say, you’re training for a fight, you want to be peaking entering training camp. But because of financial considerations, most have to train on their own in the three weeks leading to camp.
By the way, Cory Daniel and Tim Brown are projected to compete at weakside linebacker.
Dirty Commish,
Off topic breakfast info: At KCC Farmer’s Market (tomorrow at the Bishop Museum for most vendors), North Shore Cattle Company makes a loco moco with an all beef 1/4 lb. patty that is local beef, very little fat, solid meat. I keep hoping it’s less saturated fat since the meat is leaner.
K, off to look for slugs….Esme & out…..
Oh, a reason to drag myself out of bed early Saturday! I’ll make a note to check it out. Mmmmmmmm… I go Loco for Loco Moco.
Jim Donovan will be announcing shortly that August 15 has been set aside for a community service project around the Athletic Department. He thinks that they’re ready to handle as many as 100 community volunteers along with student athletics in most sports.
Perhaps there should be a T-Team set up.
Re yesterday’s Stadium Authority meeting: as reported yesterday, Centerplate was awarded the contract, but there were some very unhappy folks when the announcement was made. The Stadium Authority went into Executive Session almost immediately after convening and stayed behind closed doors for about an hour.
The Stadium management is also FINALLY getting around to entering into discussions with both food vendors as well as others about setting up recycling bins both inside the Stadium and in the parking lot even though the state law went into effect on January 1, 2005.
Back to work – have a great day everyone.
A pleasant Aloha Friday morning everyone!
Fess . . .
Your photos are looking better!!!
Whomever Cory hits will be a hurting unit.
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Awrite Cory…you go4it brah!!! from a former Castle-knight from the days of King Arthur days….meaning, long time ago…..bwaaaahahaha!!
Advance notice:

Ahhhhh!!!!, the ol’swinging doors, tanks big Al, and good morning to you.
Waka de Masch ka?
wakari masch ta ka?
Seems to be a few going to dentists.
I use this simple step-by-step book, “Dentistry Made Simple: Polishing to Root-Canals” — on others.
Commons household tools like pliers, hammer, screwdriver set, soldering iron and solder, variable speed drill, and a decent drill bit set are all you will need. Oh, and some sharp pointy probes (a chisel set works) to get under the gumline, too!
Hmmm. Maybe wafan missed his calling. Watchout!
Ok. Time to haul the CPU back and see if anything is left.
Liz . . .
Cancel the dental appointment. HA!
Liz & Wafan ~ My Dentist told me he attended school in Washington State. I never thought to ask him where, but I have a feeling in my gum line exactly who his teacher was!
We’ll have to set up a video-link to both cc’s on Saturday Liz. Too bad we can’t exchange menu samples. I better stop, I can hear Ronnie screaming at me.
Good place to post this reminder:

Blood from other people has never bothered me.
SailorBlue ~
Re: Sidelines Pass
I suggest you take a UH jacket with you to cover that Navy blue. I have a UH golf towel I can give you to wipe the tears away after you see the final score.
Wafan ~ Speaking of blood…me, KK & D-1, experienced a major transfusion at Tell Ma’s in Waipahu the other day!
Homey ~ The waiteress asked where your smiling face was! She looked young and pretty, but you know Filipina…she was prolly old enuff to be your grand-ma-ma! Bwhahahaha!
aloha everyone
just wanted to stop by and say thanks to everyone supporting me and brother, but most of all supporting the football program. having people or critics good or bad keeps my drive alive and also moments seeing younger kids getting a kick out of seeing the college athletes which makes them train harder and thats why i want to stay back in the islands and making it exciting this year for all of you. Again i want to thank all of you guys supporting us and special thanks to Mel Delaura,my training partner Lyle Nicely and last but not least my girlfriend Elena getting through school.
Re: Sideline Passes
I had the awesome privilege of being on the sidelines last season. When my friend and I went to the will call window the girl asked if we were on the visitor’s side.
Why the heck would we be on the visiting team’s side? Then I noticed my friend had a gray shirt and blue jacket & cap on. We were playing Nevada.
And I remember the final drive when I thought they were just gonna set up for a Dan Kelly kick but instead threw for the TD and we were right there. My exact words: “NO NO NO NO NO NO WHAT ARE YOU DOINGYES YES YES YES YES YES YES WOOOOO!!!”
With the exception of that, being on the sidelines isn’t the best vantage point to watch a game but it was still a great experience.
I still believe that children should not be allowed there, however. Lots of colorful language and neglectful parents who would let their child get run over by the K5VE truck.
Cory ~ Thanks for stopping by. We can’t wait to watch you compete as a Warrior.
Auryte Cory!!! Thanks for posting! We Tsaikos look forward to watching you KO some opposing ball carriers real soon!
GO WARRIORS!!!
The last time I got to see a UH game from the field was my senior year in high school.
Thanks for stopping by Cory Daniel and good luck to your brothers as well.
Aside from being able to hear some of the comments on the sidelines, I never preferred that POV over sitting in the stands.
I admire those like the Former Coach who are able to “see” things develop from field level as I have a hard enough time doing that from 30+ rows high.
Thanks for stopping by, Cory!
GO WARRIORS!
Response to last night’s late blog post:
Ralph,
Seating at the Women’s basketball games are not reserved, not even season tickets. It’s all open seating. If you want to organize a Tsaiko cheering section, go for it.
Mahalo, Cory!
Btw- you are officially a Tsai-ko now. Welcome!
DirtyCommish- ditto re sidelines. Your comment on the play was an LOL. Kekoa and I got to see and appreciate how hard our best in the nation long snapper and punter work and got a whole new appreciation for the game.
Whoosh.
Back to the CPU
Parker shot a 68 and made the cut today -2
Go Cory…Go Cory…Go Cory! Better have 2 EMT trucks ready in the North End Zone!
😯 🙄 Slugger, I’ll wait for your game observations, enjoy.
Afternoon, all!
Re: Sidelines
Yo Liz!…Up front and personal babee! Recommended for at least one game. Ok…mebbe a little dangerous when an irate punter has a punt blocked and comes back to the sidelines throwing his helmet like it was a 98 MPH fastball. Had to remind that boy, eh! Aunty Liz is sitting ovah heah! (I was behind her!)
Hey you get to sit and talk story with the Rainbow Dancers at half time…jaw a little bit with Willi ‘K’ and best of all, you get to watch the intensity of coach Mac at his best!
Go Warriors!
Hey Coloma!
How are you, girl?
Why are you hiding from us these days?
I sure hope that Willy K sings the National Anthem at a game this season. He’s awesome!!
Commish- ” My exact words: “NO NO NO NO NO NO WHAT ARE YOU DOINGYES YES YES YES YES YES YES WOOOOO!!!”
I used to say that from the yellow when CB15 was playing. He looked like he was throwing long bombs to no one but by the time the ball was chest-high, a dread would appear out of nowhere, snatch it with his hands in full stride and keep on going.
Those will always be the great old days for me!
Rob25. Taking Wafan to see WillieK tomorrow night. Shhh. It’s a secret.
Rob25 ~ You forgot the official greeting by KK standards is, Hello Hoooow Youuuuu!
Hmm. Can anyone see coltbrennan5.com on their iPhone? I can’t. It’s all flash or something. Hope he gets the Techs to porduce a phone-friendly version soon.
UH is going to set up a fund-raising drive to commemorate Dave Shoji’s upcoming 1,000th victory. UH is seeking $100 donations from 1,000 people. The goal of $100,000 would go to a scholarship fund.
whitey reports that with his magic balls he carded 5 birdies yesterday missing an eagle by inches.
way 2 go!
kekoa, d1 stop talking about tell ma. power of suggestion forced me off the road and am now snacking on pancit, pinakbet, lechon, n kare kare.
Good afternoon gang-
Happy Aloha Friday!
Colt Brennan has playing cards?
Whitey ~ Wow Champy you makin’ Stretch jealous ovah heah! Most be doze ‘magical balls!’ (btw – did you get ’em from da dark side?)
A-sports:
Oldie made playing cards. They’re kinda cool.
We also have three decks of Mack cards. We’re waiting for Mack to get back to sign them.
Mack’s cards say: “This ain’t P.E.”
Most =Must….
Howzit!
A-sports: The more important question is: Whitey has magic balls?!!!
Bwuahahahaha…
Rob25: I’ve been lurking….small kine dramaz, ah, ova’ hea?! 😉
Sheesh…was starting to sound like, uh….never mind…..bumbay I get in trouble!
Wait….I LOVE trouble!!!!!
ST ~ I’d get my $100 check in to the Dave Shoji fund raiser sooner if I can get a deck of those playing cards (for entertainment purposes only).
Rob25: #87, yup. Chicken skin and nearly in tears every time!
yup, c…whitey said you just got to rub them the right way and they’ll do anything for you. pretty soon he’ll be so good at getting them little balls in the hole that he’ll be a scratch golfer.
ST:
count A-House family in for 1 share to Dave Shoiji’s goal!
only 988 to go counting us and Kekoa!
ST,
How soon would the details of the fundraising drive be released?
what you talking about?? you ARE trouble!!!!!!
i’ll bet they’ll have to go for a second 100k.
hey gigi,
now’s your chance to return to the blog.
you might win.
A-house,
Bettah make dat 987! 😎
whoa, there’s A-Sports
okay i’ll stop padding my entries now.
LizK,
The owners of Ma’s Place & Dani’s are my relatives on my mom’s side.
al: #103…BWUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Oldie MADE playing cards? Wow! That IS cool! Got picture?
“This ain’t P.E.” hehehe, I love it!
Okay, and I’m not touching no balls….I mean, I’m not touching any posts about balls. Big C, you talk about getting in trouble……………bwahahaha.
BigWave96744: re#19….yuuuuuppp…yuuuuupppp….Egg-sack-lee!!!!
Hehehehehehe…
Colomaohana:
It was getting bad, so I had to step in.
Grrr.
I hate stepping in.
But we’re one of the few blogs that allows instant posting. Some people were jeopardizing that status.
Could there be a time when former Knights Blaze, Corey Paredes & Cory Daniels are in at the same time at LB?
Stretch: #106…Yes, thank you. Its taken many years of practice, but I think I’ve got it down….(er…up….)
Yahoo!!!
So we got Colt today, and then we called Esme.
Three times.
She didn’t pick up, so Colt ended up leaving her a message.
ST, BigWave, Cory….
What are the prospects of the younger twin brothers (who both play DE) joining the Warriors in the future?
Mahalo!
His other brother was at UH working out yesterday.
Not sure about the twins.
A-sports: No ack, you was tinkin’ da same ting, ah?! hehehe..Its okay, I no mo shame (most of the time)….hehehe!! I mean, its just YOU guys, right???
ST: Dang! No worries…..everyone should just sit back, relax, and have a few cold ones…..(or….A LOT)…
ST: #119, seriously?
the twins are going to a local cc to get their AA and qualify. they will most definitely be joining the warriors once they’re done.
true island boys from the start. they drew interest from oregon, arkansas, and even lsu.
Just emailed Esme and she said to “shoot her NOW!”
Bwuahahahaha….das what she get for hiding……
Not sure why she was hiding.
Esme = All Show No Go!!
if I win I promise not to put the cards in the spokes of my bike…
do kids still do that or is that old school style of tricking up your bike..
I did not realize that in the past 120 years, there have only been 43 nine-pitch, three-strikeout innings in major league baseball.
LOL. Amazing how things worked out when he knew where the WR was going to be. I admit being nervous at first but soon I learned to “Let Go and Let Colt”. I’m putting a trademark on that so no funny stuff all you black market apparel people out there!!!
Although, to whoever put the tapa pattern inside the Underarmour logo… sweet.
Stephen when you shot the pix of Lametius, were you both singing, “It’s Tricky”
ST: Busy, busy, busy….she says…
Nah! She is on the Pink Side, at least…
ah, lucky faye!
ST – did you hear that scream! Esme just read your fb post on her wall.
Going for 9 ?
So does each post quailfy as a separate entry? If so, then I need to catch up.
RIP Walter Cronkite!
I can’t believe that Esme missed out on a phone call from Colt Brennan. 😯 and 😳
It can’t get any easier than that Esme! 👿
Come here and let me hit you on the head with the keyboard. 😆
i like c she always laughs at my stuff.
Good afternoon Tsaikos…long time no see but I am still alive and well….just taking care of mom for now.
Still seeing some good news about UH football…season is almost here…woo hoo…
al…sent you some mail the other day. You should have got it by now.
So, what happened to the secret prize from Oldie? Or is this it?
Esme…whoosh..cough-cough, sputter..colt..hello hooow yoooou?…oh no worry ’bout me..I makule awrready! Wat you wanted now?
Mr. Tsai . . .
So, in the off chance I am a winner in this contest, will I receive the prize? Or will it be in the Land of Oz right next to my WAC Champion shirts?
Sorry!
Kind of sounded like some posters.
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Ooooo….Rob25, are we standing in line to give Esme some slaps???!! Hehehehe…..((((sigh)))) I told her she working too hard and she missing all the juicy stuff….
Colomaohana: That’s for sure…take a number. Methinks that Esme may be at the front of her own line.
wafan: You sure are getting a little sassy over there!! KK must be giving you lessons.
al: You’re welcome….hehehehehe…Hey! I laugh at MY own stuff too!! I think somethings wrong with me….First, I carry conversations with myself, now …..I’m laughing at my own posts…..
(((((sigh)))) These kids are getting to me…..
Rob: Yes, she sure is…..
JJ: Wasssup, brah!!
Hi Faye!
Congrats!
James- good son. Moms appreciate you!
Boy PC b/u restore sure takes a long time.
Wait…are we posting to win something???
Oh wait! Sorry….
Now “I’M” starting to sound like some posters…….
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!
James ~ We need to get some inventory together for those 13″X20″ Tsaiko signs for us to display at the WS & LV games. What’s a cheering section without our flash cards?
Some major newspapers provide them inside the Sunday supplements. ST – Can you light the fire under the…oh wait, they haven’t figured out how to work the new equipment yet. You know, the stuff they bought after they layed off all those people.
OLDIE: Great prize, if I win!
ST. I’m in!
Ahh….loose monay!! I no qualify fo’ win anywayz…
Pssssht…what.ever!
Eeeessssokaaaaayyyyy…..I can take a peek at one of the winners deck, right???
I said “DECK”, people….”DECK”…….
Hey my kids tell me the same thing…I’m always talking with myself. I explained to them that it’s the only way I can have an intelligent conversation. You think they bought that? Hmmmm!
BigWave-your maternal relatives are a Kauai treasure. I miss Ma’s Place but Dani’s is still awesome. Hooboy, the place was so packed this AM. Phone calls were impossible to hear!
Re the donations in honor of Dave Shoji’s 1,000th win:
We’ll be recycling once again during the home T-Gates this fall and will be splitting the HI-5 refunds three ways. Allan Inaba’s after-school program at Dole Middle School; Doris Sullivan’s PIAA, and Koa Anuenue’s scholarship program. We were planning to ask Stephen to draw the winner for the seventh game.
Since each game generates about $25 in HI-5 refunds including some cans & bottles brought from home, this would be a great way to quickly raise money without too much of an impact on your wallets.
However, for this good cause, let’s switch things abound and put the scholarship program first and see if we can raise most of the money at the first game. You can either bring your donations to the September 4 game OR we can pick them up at your home or business. For example, Curveball has I think seven sacks waiting to be picked up.
For folks who cannot afford to donate $100 all by themselves, this will be a great way to do so collectively. The donation would be made in the name of the Tsai-kos.
Will work out the details after Stephen posts the final instructions.
Understand & sympathize with folks going through dental traumas. Been there before and will be there again as soon as I make the followup appointment. .
Rob: THAT is a good one!
Good afternoon to everyone!
Am I too late to say I’m in?
Coloma: It’s Friday and I BELIEVE that it’s time to come alive again. Although I do have to get up early to meet some “twins.”
JaM: You are always “in”
W-Doc. Mahalo to you and Dr. Doc for putting your good ideas into practice. I don’t consume much stuff that comes in cans or bottles but we always look for your portable recycler every T-Gate. I remember lines of bottles and cans around the perimeter one time when you weren’t there. We are all pretty trained now !
Tommui- nice to see you!
Oldie- mahalo for donating the cool prizes!
It’s not too late, but it is kind of unnecessary. Everybody is entered.
Well, except for Cory Daniel.
But I’ve only been lurking recently…..and haven’t posted in a long time.
Eh Rob25..THANKS!!!
Aww, why did the Leahey’s show end…now I have to listen to my iPod every morning.
Hahaha..Rob25…I’m waaaay ahead of you, girl! We’ve got “a” grad party tonight (no ax me who, cause I dunno…..), but you know what that means???
*gulp* *gulp* *gulp*
If no’ mo’, it’s a close drive to another watering hole that is pretty keiki-friendly! Hahahaha….
So you’ll hear: “Hi….how youuuuuu…..Congratulations…..K, bye!”
Nah! hahahahaha…
Maybe KUMU should consider giving you a show ST! Or even a Tsaiko show…there are a lot of people that can fill in for you when you are away.
A-joe has one helluva voice for radio…or projecting, conversing, whatevers.
Stretch has a big mouth too.
Pride surely has a silky smooth voice….smooth as a….well you know where that is going!
Just food for thought…oh and there are a few females around here that could make for an interesting show too. (Put your hand down Liz, there will be a jun ken po contest for any shows that have Colt as the guest)
Aloha, all!
Thanks for letting me wala’au!!
Drive safe!
Coloma: Oops I may have spit on my monitor! Thanks for the laugh! Patron, anyone? Bad memories for some of you….I’m not trying to point fingers but…(head bobbing towards Koakane) you know who you are!
Got him back for you JJ!!
ah man, no more Leahey & Leahey. wondered why they weren’t on this morning. Really enjoyed listening to them on Mondays & Fridays. Now if I can only remember to catch their tv show on Weds…
Plus Rob DeMello’s gone from Tues & Thurs shows.
Back to cds for the morning commute, bummer.
Sad to hear about the Leahey and Leahey ending. I was always happy to get to listen to it when I was lucky enough to be driving around while in Hawaii when their show was on. The syndicated stuff cuts out the production costs and is much cheaper, but it really loses the focus on local topics. And from what I heard on the L&L show, their show was much funnier than Dan Patrick’s show.
Things sure have also changed for the newspaper industry. The NY Times bought the Boston Globe for $1.1 billion in 1993…and now that they need to sell the Boston Globe to cut their operating losses, they might need to *pay* someone to take the Globe from them!
Talk about selling high and buying low: The Taylor family sold the Boston Globe to the NY Times for $1.1 billion, and now the NY Times might pay them $40 million to take it back!
For ST: Paula Abdul’s manager says that she will lead American Idol if the “rude” producers don’t give her a new contract soon.
Paula’s contract running out may be the reason why Idol added a 4th judge last year…it sure doesn’t hurt their negotiating position to have 2 judges for 1 spot (it was reported they wanted to go back to 3 judges next season)
And the winners are …
… Colomaohana
… and SteveM
Congrats to Mrs. C and Steve M….da lucky buggaz….
JUUUUIIIIIIIIICE!!!!! Lol. Kidding. Congrats you lucky lucky people.
Sorry to hear about the Leahy & Leahy show. I was wondering what happened to them this morning. I liked the interaction between Kanoa and Papa Jim. With them, it was a good news bad news deal because when you listened, it was either a Monday or Friday.
You figure out which was good or bad.
Hi Mrs. C…things still the same…mom making progress so things going fairly well…
Thanks Rob25…I figured KK was still trying to find his way out of the hotel room…LMAO
(j)j…..got it.
c and sm….congratulations.
which one of you going to bring the deck of cards for the tailgate trump tournament?
Alright SteveM…your pahtna awaits!
Colomaohana won something? Kudeesh! There goes the neighborhood!
Nah…congratulations girl you know we wuz just makin’ fun! We knew you wanted one new DECK. (Wassamatta wid da old DECK?)
Dirty Commish ~ I was leaning in dat direction (Juice Job), but then I know the people who do the drawing…veddy honest peeps!
Too bad about the Leahey and Leahey show…I liked that one…dang
Congratulations Big C and SteveM!
….guess it was all in the cards! (pah rum pum tish!)
Too bad about da Pops and Kanoa show. 🙁
Bob and Russ? Ahhh….we’ll see…
congrats!
Congrats to Colomaohana and SteveM!
I’m glad the Wai family (Faye and PL) was able to get one. Especially pleased that Colt wanted one for himself. I guess that means he’s not upset with me making them.
Thanks, ST, for enhancing the cards by having Colt autograph them.
Free books from Crown Publishing…while supplies last.
Congratulations to SteveM and Colomaohana! Once again oldie shows his amazing generousity.
congrats to da winnahs…..spread the aloha….no forget
Garret,
Thanks for the kind thoughts, I don’t do as much as other Tsaikos (such as yourself). We all contribute in our own ways. It doesn’t cost much but keeps me out of trouble.
I would have made more, but I didn’t want to upset the powers that be. As ST says, there may be copyright issues.
OLDIE:
You realize of course that tommui has the name “Tsai-kos” registered with the Bureau of Conveyances in his name – at least until Stretch gets some organization going so that the name can be transferred.
Now about those cards … (ho ho ho! – pun intended)
Congrats Colomaohana and SteveM!

congrats to da winnahs…..spread the aloha….no forget
bulla does this suggest that every tsaiko, starting from the first tsaiko blogger will get one card each?
Wafan in da house!
Pho time.
LizK,
Email me at hoherb at yahoo dot com.
Piper’s Son,
Peggy and I haven’t figured out who you are. Do you have any relationship to Punahou’s Piper’s Pali?
By the way, Tom Mui and his wife Lois gave Peggy her first real job. We’ve always been thankful for that.
Just a final reminder to folks who are wanting to catch up with the Bulla ohana at the breakfast cc in the morning.
We are out at Nancy’s Kitchen in the Waipio Gentry Shopping Center.
Come out for a delicious local style Paniolo breakfast with every imaginable dish available for your picky palate.
The Beast will be there to meet and greet ‘his’ people. Ryan is becoming one of the key players on the Weber State football club. His leadership is being tapped to welcome the new recruits on to the squad. Come hear what he has to say about his college football experience.
(See Post # 68 above for the details)
Very well said. I hope you had a wonderful dinner to celebrate your big day. You bring up such an important point about making new friends at our age.
al
stop making trouble sensei…haha, just in a euphoric mood, the beast comes home….can’t wait to see how this off season training has sculptured him.
now the true test comes when he starts doing daddy’s ‘cross training’ program that is nothing short of barbaric. when a few linemen from UH saw the routine/program, they said that was worse than going into a marine boot camp.
basically it’s a ‘go til you blow’ workout, and we’re not talking playing the clarinet or any other woodwind instrument. this is a very taxing, very exhausting, very soul searching routine. it produces the results you want, but you pay the price.
also, i know of a UH player who is going to WOW everyone at Fall Camp; currently he is training with NFL players and has already lost a ‘considerable’ amount of weight in 9 days…..speed + power…..kills. and that’s all i’ll say about that….
mahalo kekoa for arranging the bfast tomorrow, not only will the beast be there, but the princess Isabella, and the enforcer ‘Nik’. all 3 kids in one place, who you think will be smiling from ear to ear? das right……
ok, off to the airport, had a report of a ‘wildcat’ getting off of a plane
Tha good news is that the “Beast” has landed.
Tha crappy news is that the Leahey and Leahey Show has flown away. Auwe!
Can we start a petition here Tsai?

Kekoa ..
you better get the big room…
Rajah dat Curveball! Even that may not be big enuff!
Hello there Tsaikos and Tsaikettes, Lurkers and Lurkettes!
I’ll miss the Leahey and Leahey show… sob sob sob … 🙁
How’s everyone doing today?
Welcome back Cory Daniel! Study hard and good luck to you!!!
UHfan808 ~ Are you coming to the Bulla & Da Beast Breakfast cc in the morning?

Hi las vegas! Maybe. But a couple Warrior Jack antenna balls will be heading your way soon…
Howzit everyone, congrats to BigC and SteveM.
Great!, but watch out for those clogged arteries
Walter Cronkite died, as a kid I thought he and Bob Sevey were the same guy, just diff clothes
Hooters? OK– sounds like a nice central location near the airport…. 🙄
This is sounded more interesting by the day. You’re not kidding me, are you? 😐

When my Pops sat with his faithful German Shepherd “Ali’i” during his last moments, it was a very touching scene. 13 years of faithful service to his master. They had become a team.
My sincere condolences to you my friend, I know what a loss this must be for you.
R.I.P. Sassy….
las vegas,
Condolences to you…it is hard to lose a dog that has been with you for a long time.
SteveM,
I just might be able to get the same price as the other place
but with a more haole style menu.
On the last proposal they forgot to add rice to the menu, if I can get that for free, we might have a deal for a strip location.
I had to drop your name several dozen times to get this
Me “Eh brah, da kine Steve MurashigematudairaKen, staying in dis hotel

Air Force study suggests that the future of the Air Force might have robotic planes replacing *every* type of manned aircraft…no pilots in any Air Force plane!
Researchers have developed a way to create houses out of *straw* that could be the way that buildings are made in the future. Straw is a renewable resource and a by-product of farming, absorbs CO2 as it grows (negative carbon footprint buildings may be possible), and its high insulating properties mean that its houses need almost no conventional heating (saving money and helping the environment). But kids growing up in a straw house would sure get confused by a certain children’s story…
SteveM,
Would you please take a pic of the cards so that A-sports can see what she missed??? lol
las vegas — sorry to hear about your dog, Sassy.
Keko – What time you folks usually leave, you know I’m not a real early morning person.

Thank you for your thoughts…….She still visits at night, touches my knee with her nose and leaves.
oh…congrats to Colomaohana and SteveM for winning the contest!
Thanks to Oldie for contributing the cards. If those are the same ones ST showed me yesterday, they’re beautiful!!!
🙂
lv
sorry about your dog. 14 years is a long time though.
wasn’t she hanging in there for sometime now?
Garret #229 so explain Mrs LV’s stubby legs
OLDIE: No. No connection with Punahou or Piper’s Pali.
Too bad your kids are of college age and not in nursery school or around that age. They probably would know about Piper’s Son.
How can I insult people on the blog if I gave out my real name?
If it helps any, I was at your wedding!
#227 Kekoa
Hi Al san,

sometimes they stay all day…aaaahhhhh..there is a dart board..
i, too had a dog named sassy, she was a springer spaniel.
UHfan88 — yes, I’ll post a photo when I get them. Will bring them the next time we meet.
las vegas — hope they don’t know that name…and I better not find myself in the Penthouse suite (cannot afford) when I check in! Now, if I was driven up in a stretch limo… 🙂
But Hooters would be a “central” location, and they are known for their restaurants…though I never ate there. 🙄
Hooters, huh? It used to be the San Remo — next to the Tropicana and directly across the street from the MGM main lobby/entrance and monorail terminus).
Hiflyer the menu changes at 11 am to lunch menu, so come for lunch, join Jerry, he usually eats brunch and lunch, they rest of us will be there.
SteveM,
Walking distance from MGM, NY NY, Excalibur, Luxor, M-Bay & Tropicana
Free parking and scantily clad dealers
aloha,
time to watch sumo on tv
las vegas — Free parking is great. Didn’t know about the dealer attire. Tell us about your friend… Mr. Amazaki and his set-up. Possibly only Esme and myself might have seen this service.
HiFlyer ~ Sorry, got distracted by the mere mention of Hooters. Just snapped out of a dream sequence…ahhh..what was the question? Oh yeah, time!
Yes. We do end up staying until the late afternoon sun sinks in the West. The other measurement is when Koakane goes down for the final round of beeru. He’s not here this weekend, so it will prolly break up at around 2 PM.
Kekoa – Just remembered that I have another lunch to go to. Sorry that I’ll miss seeing the Beast.
Clay Stanley leads U.S. past Netherlands, into World League volleyball finals
Hi, las vegas!
Jason,
I had to go to Byron’s for a slushie float after dropping my Mom off at the airport.
now the kid is having a slush float withdrawal syndrome, possibly triggering a panic attack..
Congrats to Colomaohana & SteveM!
las vegas,
Sorry to hear about Sassy.
Night! Hula, hula, hula tomorrow…
ralph
play nicely
Ralph’s sense of humor is drier than al’s. Or maybe I should say it’s drearier. 😉
al,
Forever the big brother. Appreciate that.
G’night all!
Hooters, huh…how convenient. I hope the golden enka crooner is not teasing me. But standby. 😐 😛
Good night everyone!
Hiya!
Back from the movie on the beach. Awesome! Movie under the Milky Way.
las vegas- condolences on the loss of Sassy. She will live forever in your love and memories.
I’ve always been proud to call the Daniel Boys my cuzins and can’t wait to see Cory boy aka “Bubba” Crank some Heads!
Go Warriors!!
Agreed!
