Well, first day of summer, I challenge this kid to race me for my crack seed money. He is very hesitant, and what I would then later discover was him being ha’aha’a or humble. But after goading him, he accepts.

Long story short, he beats me by almost half the lenght of the pool, and we were only racing one length of the pool. This person—Daniel Arakaki, or UH swimming lore. Damn, I was one punk growing up….

Talked to a top 2014 local prospect just last week who is close to qualifying. Said although he has many BCS offers waiting should he get the test score Hawaii came in late and according to the prospect it sounds like the coach who was assigned to recruit and monitor his progress was fired for not doing his due diligence and keeping track of the young man’s test scores. He is now considering Hawaii if he qualifies but it may be too late as many were on him before Hawaii found out how close he was. Has since taken the ACT which may give him a better chance than the SAT at getting the score he needs. His grades are good so the sliding scale is favorable for him. Of course if he doesn’t get the score then it’s all moot but the assistant coach messed up and it could have very well cost him his job. Hawaii has upped the ante by offering him the chance to also play basketball if he gets the score he needs. He is an explosive athlete and a great kid who is very humble and respectful. Wish him the best where ever he ends up.

Phil left because he quit, not because he wasn’t retained.

*****I really try to be respectful every time, I really do. However, when people are this wrong and so mis-informed, well, they should keep their thoughts to themselves.
He quit my a*s!
Wasn’t retained my a*s!
His a*s was fired!

And that jack, is fact!

I remember the first time I got the senior discount. My wife and I went to see a movie at the Lahaina theater. We went early, got the tickets and went to dinner. At dinner I counted my change and discovered the cashier gave me too much money back. When we went back to the theater, i discovered what he did. He gave me the senior discount. I was only 50 years old!

I was more insulted than happy to get the discount.
