On the positive side …

GO WARRIORS!!!

Payback from the other day! 🙁

Good Morning d1, ST and TSAI-KOS!!!!!

🙂 🙂 🙂

Furlough day………..but going to work anyway!

How STUPID is that!

“Loose” is good….”apathy” is deadly.

Hiya Tsaikos.

i’m furlowing myself today. 😀

Sorry, won’t be able to make Esme’s show….or what sounds like a terrific TsaikoGate. 🙁

Warriors,

“Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our chosing”.

Good morning Tsai-kos! Happy Friday.

OK, I don’t have anything pink, so I’ll wear my *white* UH shirt tonight.

KK – you going tonight? Gonna be there for the alumnae match?

So, where will ST be tonight – Gridiron show or volleyball? My guess, the former.

d1 – have fun in the southern pnw.

Listenied to Coach Mack on TV news last nite. He was riling us up, da troops, telling us peeps to back da team, they’re 2-4 but the team, day working hard, he’d like to see stadium sold out tomorrow.

imo, gotta teach Coach to look at the camera. gotta teach Coach to ask the interviewer off camera to ask the question they’ll be asking on camera so he has time to think about and compose his response, and then ask the camera guy to re-ask him the question on camera.

some guys are really good at on the spot talking.
some guys are really good at writing their response, usually because
they have more time to organize their thoughts.

coach is not a A type. Miano is a A type. Cal is a A type.
but for sure for sure, Coach is a good guy. so why the overall problems on da offense and defense? I’m thinking, the asst coaches can be broken up into two groups: the new guyz, Tormey, Shaw, MSmith in one puddle, and da oddaz in anudda puddle. which could explain why da whole wheel not exactly going round.

watcha think? maybe i get too much time on my hands on deze furlow days. maybe all this going round itself out over time. 😆

Wow.

Kazz

that you? ? ?

stupendous!

Chartered trips: The only way the Boise State football team flies

http://www.idahostatesman.com/sports/story/946192.html

From the article:

Ironically, Hawaii moved the start time of its WAC home games up one hour this season to enable teams that fly commercial to catch a red-eye flight after the game. That happened after Boise State had made its decision.

It’s too bad that somebody couldn’t petition to have the time moved back to 600 pm for this game.

It’s also too bad the other side couldn’t have been good sports and say that since the 600 pm start time isn’t a burden on them that they wouldn’t have minded if the UH had gone back to the original starting time of the game.

I remember tagging 72 on a undefeated BYU team ranked no. 8 in the country. And the person who led that attack is calling the plays now. Have fun guys!

Time to put cliches to the test in about 33 hours.

Na Koa Rumor Mill

Word has it that the new Na Koa website will go live tomorrow.

Word has it that once up, an add on will be a members only section that will post interviews, photos, and streaming video

I hope to be able to demo the page and its upgrades at the Monday luncheons.

Anyone going to San Jose? Play golf?

i was watching the news last night when they did a flash on that gridiron show. in the corner of my eye i thought i seen the lovely esme in the front row. good thing dvr allows you to rewind and review.

looks like a fun show to attend.

KGMB showed the Gridiron show clips this morning and Esme was indeed in a segment in her cheerleader costume.

Off to the garden. Esme & out….

PS: Don Weir: Send your pictures to Stephen Tsai.

Oh, is that what you call it!

I will be on vacation so it’s golf. When I am working, it’s called marketing.

Gee top 51 or in the top 100!

Good morning good people.

GO WARRIORS!

We could use the BCS $$$ but we could use the VICTORY!

Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂

“Loose” is good….”apathy” is deadly.”

Well stated, Deewun-san.

Good Morning Stephen. Bye Stephen.

Good Morning Tsaikos!
Boise State charter flight will be like a privately held funeral service
after we beat them saturday night.
GO WARRIORS!

Reviewing the boise St travel roster in the morning paper, I count only 5 seniors and NONE are on the O or Dline.

In fact, all the “trench” players are sophmores or freshmen and they have been pushing other teams around for the first 6 games. That’s awesome.

Watching the Tulsa game, Bosie State’s Dline had a fantistic push against the Oline. The left end was especially good in pushing the R tackle back 4-5 yards on nearly every play.

This now begs the question, if Boise State has such good players, why is it that few, if any, are drafted by the NFL? Is it like a Bobby Knight at Indiana where he gets so much out of his players that scouts say they have very little or none left for the NBA?

Of course, bighilofan2 will surpass that with his photo next to the “bike”.

Thanks to all the “principal” participants who made this happen. Will look for it on the sidelines tomorrow!

A-House,

It IS scary that the Boise State team is very young & yet are playing at an extremely high level. And that staff does seem grossly underpaid for the quality job that they do. All that being said, I think our boyz are gonna “get ‘er done”, as Larry the Cable Guy would say!

As for Boise not having that many draftees, I’ll bet that the Mel Kipers and other over-rated talking heads have saddled that team with the “system” label. That they have a great system but aren’t the type of athletes the pros are looking for. Bunk! Just like they said Colt was a “system” QB. He was a terrific QB that grasped, learned & implemented
a difficult but explosive system.

Hmmm if you look at Boise’s roster, there are only 5 seniors. 19 juniors, 26 sophmores and over 51 freshmen. How do you get so many freshmen? What’s their incentive Do you take some under-performing guys off scholarship and pass them on to the non-scholie freshmen when they become sophmores if they pan out?

I want one of those shirts!!!

GO WARRIORS!

Happy Friday, Tsaikos! Whoa, that Blaze t-shirt is awesome. The resident BSU alum just came by my office yelling her Bronco cheer. I yelled back with my Vili Warrior scream. 😀

I am remiss in not wishing you, A-House, BIG birthday cheers for your special day. Hope you get a really good reason to celebrate tomorrow night – oh, around 8 p.m.??!?!? 🙂

PP ~ I thought the civil defense sirens went off! Shoots…was only you testing your screem! Bwhahahaha!

Eh!…you get samoa of doze pink decals? It was a perfect match for my great grand’s 4wheel drive buggy and acourterments!

Now see if UH had someone who knew how to market things, they would get Blazes shirt into rainbowtique they would sell a ton of them

Howzit Everybody,

Happy Birthday A-House

ST,

Do you know of any prospects that will be making there official visits this weekend?

One more question ST,

Will we be hearing about any commits anytime soon or will the rest probably come after the season?

Just wondering

クミ!

Dear Mr. Koakane wen da kope goin be ready tomorrow???????????

Pomai,

I think NCAA regulations prohibits a school from profiting off a student athlete’s name and or image.

The entire UH team checked out their Haunted Lagoon for Halloween.

Now, when the October moon rises over the PCC’s palm trees and trademark lagoon, the park transforms into an expansive spook alley that has become wildly popular, especially with the locals.

“When we decided to do something for Halloween, the response was, ‘Haunted lagoon? Polynesian Cultural Center? How does that work?'” Orgill said.

“The entire (University of Hawaii) football team came. People are coming in groups of 12, 15, 16,” Magalei said.

A-House:

Very belated Happy Birthday!

It wasn’t that I was forgetting about you, just haven’t had too much time to peruse the blog lately. I’ve been spending way too much time outside after-hours enjoying the better-than-normal weather. Too bad we go back to seasonal conditions this weekend…..

I remember the debate about whether or not Blaze would have another year–ST and some others thought so but UH appeared to think that this was his last year. Blaze putting out his shirt seems to indicate that this is his last year.

Mama C-ta ~ I’ll have to place one of my patented distress calls to Mr. C. They’ll say, “Eh!…dats your Uncle calling from da ceded lands again. You bettah go check him out again.”

Den wen dey fine out us guys holding the entire Stadium hostage!…Oh boy!

No BS.

Just win!

Go Warriors!!!

A-House,

Just saw your Birthday picture above, a little late, but I whish you nothing but the best for many years to come. Aloha.

A-House,

(yesterdays blog)

Hey, Kekoa! I no mo’ – I gave them all out. But I was just the mail lady. The decals were compliments of none other than the sign master himself, A-Joe. Maybe he can bring more to tomorrow’s t-gate?

Yo, Big C! Miss ya…can’t wait to catch Gridiron tonight. Thanks for the link to your review. I used to go in the early, early days, but haven’t been to one in some years, so I’m really looking forward to it.

I have this mind picture of the BS alumnae being yelled at by PP.

Eyes wide open. Hair flying backward. Spittle dots flying. Cracks appearing in walls. Windows blowing out. Stunned look. Blood dripping from her ears.

garret
i remember that you mentioned the blackberry storm2. i, too, had been following its release date. it was hoped that they were gonna debut the storm2 several months ago. however, the huge inventory of the original storm held up its release.

it appears that it will be released very soon. they no longer are offering me the storm1 for free. my guess is that they well release the storm2 during the world series because blackberry i believe is one of the big sponsors. while at the same time verizon also bought the omnia2 rights.

verizon likes to bring out new stuff around november in time for holiday buys.

we’ll see.

Kekoa: Hahaha..YES! Please do!! hehehe….

PowderPuff: Hey!! Yup, we seriously need to get together SOON! I’ve been missin’ out on a lot!! Grrrr…

OMG, you’ll love to performances, I promise! So proud of Esme…really am! And….we have hatched a plan to make ST agree to join next years cast…..Then Mr C and I will spearhead the whole Gridiron Tgate in the Diamond Head Theater parking lot!! Serious!!! We already talked to Esme and she was looking at me like, “OMG…you guys would totally do it, too, huh?!” Uh huh…Damn straight! hehehe..

Eh, Big C – what you think? ST’s “Tricky” would be a priceless addition to the Gridiron 2010. They just need to change the lyrics a bit to match some headline here, and he’d be good to go.

Derek – we are very hopeful that we’ll have some great results. Let’s Go Warriors! Trying to do all my yelling today and before 5 p.m. tomorrow.

I added your blog to bookmarks. And i’ll read your articles more often!

Video of what it is like to attend a Warrior football game from the perspective of a UH student.

Never give up. Keep fighting. Be there.

Hoping UH will the game tomorrow. Here is some food for thought.cheer for BSU after this game because if Boise keeps winning and TCU loses to either Utah or BYU, Boise makes the BCS with a HUGE payday which will help UH financially as UH and the other WAC schools will benefit from a Boise St. appearance in a major BCS bowl game…

pomai new kope brew master can only say ……… when it gets there.

time winding down till tgate and warrior game vs dem ponies. nothing else to add except go warriors.

@Don Weir

I worked with George. It doesn’t surprise me he went the extra mile not just for the Warriors, but for people!

Saw him last at the UNLV game. He and I were stuck trying to get out early Sunday morning.

George is one of the nicest people you’d want to meet.

knock out HOUT

There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game – It’s easy.
There’s nothing you can make that can’t be made.
No one you can save that can’t be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time – It’s easy.

go warriors

oh btw sorry if I missed it but what is the colors of the game

130

I dont buy Coach Peterson saying he doesn’t think about running up the score etc. With TCU playing a very good BYU team (ranked) and media talking about TCU leapfrogging Boise if they beat BYU, I think Coach Peterson is too smart to not want to run up the score IF given the opportunity. Too much criticisms already about Boise being at 4 for that coach do be paying attention.

They need convincing routs throughout the rest of their schedule and pray that TCU loses one game. If I had a vote and Boise beat us by 7pts and TCU beat BYU @ BYU, and both run the table…who is the logical choice in this ?? TCU imo.

While I know what he says in public is meant to keep the focus on just winning the game, I dont think anyone is buying it and Coach Mack is going to give it all they got.

Given the opportunity, Boise will do what they can not only to win this game, but to turn this game into slaughterhouse with a lot of blood.

So Warriors, dont let down and dont give in. Not In Our House!

I think I was talking to Protector about playing more elite teams and he brought up a very good point.

Seeing that our team over the past few years tend to be very injury prone, playing the likes of a USC or SEC conference team may prove to be many small disasters.

These teams hit harder, are more physical and stronger than us overall (i.e. nfl quality). One of the big downsides to playing these kinds of teams is our players end up with a lot more injuries and tire out.

I always thought of the upsides but this is a good reason why maybe we shouldnt?

Good evening, all! See you tomorrow at the cabana!!

is watching Monopoly on tv better or worse than
the World Championship of Mah Jong on KIKU tv?

Διογένης ὁ Σινωπεύς ,

I think the TV package is a lot better with the MWC…as they have the “Mountain West Sports Network + CBS” plus they do have occasional ESPN games televised.

They may or may not rise to the top of the conference as much as the WAC but if the MWC decides to take in Boise St. it would make that conference a heck of a lot stronger than something like the Big East.

Also, it wouldnt incur any significant travel experience to the conference members as the school is more or less in the middle of the members home state.

While they wouldn’t make it to the top of the MWC as much, IF the MWC got a automatic BCS berth, I would rather be in that conference and fight every year for auto-bid though conference championship than having to face scrutiny and uncertainty even if you were to go undefeated in the WAC.

I think Boise St. sees the WAC as just a step towards something bigger…the MWC…unless the Big-12 wants to kick out Baylor or something, which i doubt will happen.

If the MWC becomes a BCS conference, Ferd detailed how the conference will get $24 million instead of the $5 million the WAC gets in BCS money (when no team makes the BCS). That is about $2 million per year more. So, if BSU doesn’t make a BCS bowl more than every other year in the WAC, they would come out ahead in a BCS conference even if they never play in a BCS bowl again.

I do not think that *any* team would choose to stay in a non-BCS conference if they had a chance to join a BCS conference. UH would jump at the chance, and I understand BSU looking out for themselves.

Feature on Kealoha Pilares, mostly focusing on his tattoos.

Kealoha Pilares is one of the top play makers on the University of Hawaii football team, but, it’s not just his play that makes him stand out. Among other things, he also has a lot of tattoos.

However, the one that means the most to him, is the one fans have probably never seen. Underneath his right wristband is a date – 10-01-08. It’s the day Kealoha Pilares lost a beloved member of his family.

“My Grandma passed away last year, and this is something special to me,” said Pilares.

Q&A with Zane Johnson, basketball transfer from Arizona.

DW: Were you looking at any other schools to transfer to?

ZJ: New Mexico and here were the final two schools I was looking to go to. Hawaii coaches are down to earth; they rarely yell. It’s just fun. It’s like last year with coach (Russ) Pennell and coach (Mike) Dunlap.

DW: How has it been going from your favorite teammates ever to playing with a bunch of guys you don’t know yet?

ZJ: It’s going to be different. I had three NBA guys on my team last year. Here, I probably don’t have any. There’s one guy here that’s really good who reminds me of Nic Wise. His name is Dwain Williams, a transfer from Providence. But I don’t think there will be anything like I experienced last year. Playing with them was just so much fun. Playing here will be fun, but it will be hard to click just like we all did last year.

DW: How is head coach Bob Nash similar or different to the past two coaches you played for?

ZJ: He’s like coach Pennell. He cares about you, he wants you to do good. He’s a good coach who knows what he’s doing, and above all, he’s a great person.

IF IF IF Hawaii were to be offered a slot in the Pac-10 (which wont happen) and we turned it down because we couldn’t compete w/ SC or Cal…I think there would civil strife and blood in the streets in Manoa.

Thing is, Hawaii would probably need to cough up another 20 million or so into the athletic budget to meet the BCS criteria.

madeinhawaii,

I say give him 8 years? SMU was the bomb in the past so they have that going for them. A “rebirth” of sorts and bringing the school back into prominence.

I dont know if JJ would come back to coach…he is still young-ish so thats not the problem. I dunno. If Mack is successful how long will he be here? Be another 80 yo paterno haha?….I dont know what he has and what he doesnt have in him. I vaguely remember him saying I want Hawaii to be my last stop or something like that. If that is 5 years or 15 who knows.

sorry, again, I progot to change the name of the “poster” – this is A-House posting!!!

# iwonderwhytheyhateme:

McMackin also said he wanted to retire under JJ, remember? So? Who knows. BUT JJ has to succeed first if he is going to return with a list of demands that he wants met.

I would love to see JJ prove his point at SMU and return. It may be the only way to get the people who can make the financial decisions to finally give it a long term shot..

madeinhawaii,

If BSU leaves the WAC and the conference goes downhill, what will the WAC and UH look like in 4 years? Given the state of the finances in Hawaii, where would the money come from for a new stadium and other facility improvements?

JJ has a whole batch of rich donors at SMU that brought him there, one of the richest men in the US who gives a ton (he funded their football stadium so they named it after him, Ford), and he just got T. Boone Pickens to skip Oklahoma State’s homecoming game to go to an SMU game. He got Mrs. Pickens to appoint him the head of her favorite charity and she basically selected the new SMU mascot. I’m guessing that within a year Pickens will donate the money for an indoor practice facility to SMU.

It would take a man like Pickens to get the facilities upgraded at UH because the state isn’t going to have the money to do it. UH doesn’t have an alum like that, unfortunately. And I don’t see anyone at UH who can pull in someone like Pickens.

Looking at the thoughts about donors for UH, does UH have any alumni who is listed among the top 500 in financial standing????

I don’t have figures and just guessing, but does some of the hs in hawaii get more donation from their alumni than UH????

imho, the weakest link for UH to get more money is right in their backyard, the UH Alumni Association. They should work hard at trying to keep all of their alumnis abreast of what is happening at UH, encourage all of them to join the alumni assn upon graduation, and look at simple marketing things. A simple things like making a yearly school calendar which has school activities information and various pictures of UH and mailing it to all their dues paying alumni would be a great start. Putting out a yearly magazine listing all the various types of donors and giving them recognition is most important, but is this done????

ok, enough, going brake.

iwonderwhytheyhateme on # 134,

When I made the point about it being problematic when we go againsty the truly elite powerhouses being extremely physical & the high probability of us sustaining more than the usual injuries & dings, I was speaking about out present state of the state. I feel that in 2-3 years, we should be (hopefully) a lot deeper and we should have long since dealt with issues such as clock management, lack of depth at key positions. At that point, Coach Mac probably would WANT the opportunity to play a high profile team on the mainland. Still, I’d like them to cherry-pick the opponents. I am NOT in favor of playing Florida, Alabama,Arkansas or Miami or the kind of teams that are or will be juggernauts. I wouldn’t mind us having another shot at Georgia, though. If we do play high profile tems in th East, it would be a challenge not just physically & in terms of time zones but in cost / expenses also.

Howzit Tsaikos.

lava,
not Sione Polota, Daniel Iopa, just graduated. his 40 went down to 4.8 and he’s been lifting with a UNLV grad, now a hs coach.

Don Weir,
will be flying Hawn Air tomorrow, arrive Hnl noon, go pick up car Alewa Heights then book it to Cabana B, be there 1:30ish.

Greg Salas,
I’ll do my job tomorrow, 60 minutes. remind your pals Avery, Medeiros, Taylor, Chizzy, Pilares dat we expecten da full one hand stretch! 😀 picture kind! no foolin around kinda action! 😀 da WOWOWOW kinda
performance from da Warriors.

I no kea about da BCS kala. I like you guyz buss up Boise!

everybody seems to have forgotten chris leatigaga #91, is he still injured or what?

el guapo

you getting too serious for me tonight.

I’m trying to just mellow out, cuz my vicarious experience, through the tales of others, is the same as yours.

but at the same time, if neva have UH grad schools, plenny local peeps would not be lawyers and doctors. a nephew just became a doctor, so I get mixed feelings, because personally i had a great experience at UH and am thankful beyond words.

okay,

time out. get sum beauty rest 😀

tomorrow is a big day and i wanna enjoy
it, save my vocals fo da game.

nite gang!

and Go Warriors!

i no wat you mean.

my experience was New Hampshire. graduated 3 1/2 yrs because
school full time year round, and the school helped me, put 15 credit hours in the last semester, all the class times revolved around me, not the professors. had to plan it out for a year though.

I no for a fact UH don’t do that. I tried to go back to school last year, remember, take one class so i could get student seating at Aloha Stadium. da goal was to get a student ID. and not one person behind da desk said to me “i’ll help you be a student again.” all day wuz interested in waz ordering da right bento before the other worker stole da betta meal selection.

Yup, UH gotta lotta prolems. 😀

and thats no joke.

but still, its my school. and is the home of my team.

Go Warriors.

Don’t forget that the budget problems for the state resulted in UH getting a big cut in funding this year…and I’m guessing next year will be even worse due to the decline in tourism. Many classes required to graduate will NOT be offered, and UH students are very upset at the situation right now. Those are the same students UH will be asking for money from after they graduate.

olddiver, I don’t think any of us is putting UH down, but there are academic problems which has never been corrected over years. We all want UH to be academically the best and be recognized as a world class school of academia. There are many reason for why students go away, but how can we encourage more to stay at home. Not too long ago, UH had one of the best schools of education and produced almost all of the teachers for our education system. Do they still do that??? I don’t think so, otherwise we would not be having a problem with hiring teachers.

I agree that UH can provide an excellent education, and I know a LOT of UH graduates that have done extremely well. I don’t think that there is any WAC school that I would put above UH academically, and UH does well in a lot of areas. I just worry about the morale of the professors and students at UH when they feel the budget squeezed a little more each year and the list of facilities that are behind in maintenance grows.

Last year a UH prof talked with me for a long time about his list of complaints and #1 was the state of the classrooms, labs, and dorms. We complain about the athletic facilities in this blog because we are sports fans, but the academic facilities really need money for maintenance and repairs also.

Changing the subject, I think it was a big *coincidence* (sarcasm) that the legislator who pushed for the law exempting football stadiums from environmental regulations in California just happened to be a guest of the owner of the San Diego Chargers at their last game. The owner of the Chargers made a big donation to a cause that the legislator supports (voter registration and turnout, especially in that legislator’s district) that coincidentally occurred a few days before the bill was passed.

Is it a coincidence that the owner of the Chargers is helping get the football stadium built in the City of Industry? Sure…

Whitey,
One local custom you neva wen forget,Las Vegas!

rasu, hey, sorry for not calling you on my earlier trips, but got tied up and was not doing too good. anyway, be your way dec 5th. will give you call.

I love my pups

No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the dog does.
I hope to be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.
Don’t accept your dog’s admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful.
We wonder why the dogs always drink out of our toilets, but look at it from their point of view: Why do humans keep peeing into their water bowls?

OK Whitey no prob.
This time Kiku Hana rest, my treat.
And it’s about time.
You and the A-Houses make me shame always treating.

protector,

yes i agree that eventually we could take on some lower level “elite” schools. even in the SEC I can see a time when we could play Vandy or OleMiss.

I still think that for the most part we will be hard pressed to recruit the players that are necessary to compete with a Florida or LSU. This is not to say I wouldnt want to see them play these teams because the draw in these types of matchups is not only watching UH but watching UH play a high profile team.

If some of these teams were more open to a home-home, can you imagine how many people would go to Aloha Stadium to watch a UH-LSU or UH-Oklahoma matchup?….Even if they were to raise the prices of the tickets I can see a spike in the number of people attending.

Rich2176’s pick up lines,

P.S. they don’t work very well

That outfit would look great in a crumpled heap on my bedroom floor tomorrow morning.

I want to melt in your mouth, not in your hand.

Baby I’m like milk, I’ll do your body good.

If I told you that you had a nice body, would you hold it against me?

Is it hot in here or is it just you?

If I could rearrange the alphabet I’d put U and I together.

Are you from Tennessee? Because you’re the only ten I see!

Can I have fries with that shake!

You’re so sweet you’re giving me a toothache.

Hi, I’m new in town. Can I have directions to your house?

Pardon my is there a mirror in your pocket because I can see myself in your pants.

Do you know CPR because you take my breath away.

I’d look good on you.

I’ve seem to have lost my number, can I have yours?

Is your name Gillette? …because you’re the best a man can get.

Are we near the airport or is that just my heart taking off?

You have nice legs. What time do they open?

Hey that dress looks nice. Can I talk you out of it.

Is your dad a terrorist? Because you’re the bomb!

Are you a parking ticket cause you have fine written all over you.

dang rasu, now my brain no can remember all of that, so going have to print it, then when go to the darkside, see if it works. can see me asking merchant, you have flashlight so i can see what is written on this page. crack!!! ouch, ouch, ouch!!!!!!

brake time.

oyasumi na sai!!! see you all at tg.

Howzit Tsai-kos!

Just got back from the vb game. Nice to see everyone (LizK, Slugger, HiFlyer, Kazz, 808ike, chawan, sj, myki, SailorBlue & wife). The alumnae game was fun to watch. da nfa played, sorta. btw, c_c made the balloon hats tonight, regular guy is on vacation.

Have fun tomorrow at the t-gate.

funny moment tonight at the end of the uh-byuh vb exhibition match.

so, they are inviting the distinguished guests to speak at the ssc in honoring dave shoji.

the wac commisioner is introduced to the audience by ben kiiaina as DAVE benson. needless to say, it was embarassing and benson looked a bit perturbed. later, ben corrects his mistake. hahaha.

Al ~ Benson who?? Hehehehe!

Benson got polite applause. We were just being civil.

C_C musta been out of breath from blowing up all those balloons to yell at his favorite commish (not you dirty commish, you could never be that dirty!).

jm ~ Soon as you get your 50 lb puppy to behave, please do come out to the t-gate. If he’s still a bit feisty, Homey and the grill team can make doggie adobo out of him.
