The Samoan Dream Team
Well, the stars came out for the June Jones Golf Tournament. These legends also will be going to American Samoa as part of the combined June Jones/Greg McMackin football clinic. From left: Jack “The Throwin’ Samoan” Thompson, Leo Goeas (who is actually Portuguese/Hawaiian), American Samoa Gov. Togiola Tulafono, Paul Soliai, Reagan Mauia, Melila Purcell III, and Jesse Sapolu:

At first glance, many thought that quarterback Greg Alexander was a defensive end. At 6 feet 5 (or 6-4) and 240 pounds, he certainly fit the part.
But Alexander has embraced the offseason conditioning program, running every morning, throwing in the afternoon, and running some more in the twilight.
Alexander has trimmed down 10 pounds, and now weighs 230.
What’s more, his footwork has improved greatly. He is way more mobile and, as a result, his passes even have more zip.
Head coach Greg McMackin declared the competition open at quarterback. Alexander now is a legitimate candidate.
* * *
Linebacker Josh Andrews has been impressive in unsupervised workouts. Even more impressive is his route to Manoa.
Andrews, an All-State player from Mililani High, originally enrolled in the Navy in 2007. But he said he was allowed to withdraw his application after his mother was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The tumor was found be benign.
Andrews then enrolled at Western Oregon. But he said he did not feel comfortable there, and opted to transfer to UH.
Andrews is one of three former Mililani High players hoping to join the Warriors. Pictured here are Andrews, cornerback Kawika Ornellas and running back Joey Cadiz.

OK, this water fountain in Klum Gym is just plain nasty.
* * *
Unsupervised workouts are open to everybody. It means that if DPK wants to relive his glory days, he can work out. This week, some players from San Jose Community College have been working out. Also giving it a shot is wideout Billy Ray Stutzmann, one of the top prospects in the state.
Yo Jayson,
where you at?
I didn’t realize it was so late – early?
When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.
Exciting times ahed!
eeeeuw… that is a water fountain???
Nitey Nite fo real!
Not late only 7:22pm and rainy in South China.
Go Warriors!
Zai jien.

Solomon Elimimian, LB, Hawaii 6’0″ 220 lbs. Sr
John Estes, OL, Hawaii 6’2″ 290 lbs.Junior
Adam Leonard, LB, Hawaii 6’0″ 235 lbs. Sr.
David Veikune, DL, Hawaii 6’3″ 250 lbs. Sr
Dominic Green, OL, Nevada 6’3″ 295 lbs. Senior
Note-Of the preliminary list of 54 players, BYU and Hawaii led with 4 players each.
For Hawaii, I’m thinking, this has to be a first…4 players on the Lombardi Award watch list? And what doesn’t puzzle me is that even with these players gaining notice of their fine play. And Hawaii as a team collectively has a lot of experience defensively, potentially able to start 10-11 seniors. And although a few question marks on the offense line, plus the rawness both at the receiver and QB spots and that of the Ron Lee’s offense , I’m still not totally surprised that most of the publications having Hawaii finishing 2-3-4 in the WAC.
This coming year the top four teams in the WAC are going to be tough with all four probably going to Bowl Games again. And maybe five. Thinking back last year and all four teams- Hawaii, Boise State, Fresno State and Nevada playing each other all in close competitive games. Mostly all the teams played within 7 points or less with each other. We hear so much about Boise or Fresno being the next BCS Buster. But you might think this is laughable… but my monies on Nevada. Potentially Nevada might have both the WAC Offensive and Defensive players of the year in their QB Kaepernick, Colin 6-6 215 So. And Mauga, Joshua LB 6-2 245 Sr. Let me tell you Nevada will be tough, especially now that they’ve changed DC from last year. They have some formidable players (rb, c, wr,cb, mlb,qb). Even Louisiana Tech are getting some SEC type players on their roster. So I wouldn’t count them out either.
For Hawaii, I can’t recall any other season where they have so much on their plates than this season.Yet all the teams around them do, too. Last year was a dogfight, with seven games and seven wins leaving Hawaii the victor but not necessarily beating their opponents, the lesser inferior teams handily, as one might expect of an eventual BCS Bowl bound team.
One thing is for sure the WAC is getting better with coaches, like Pat Hill for example, and others following his methodology of scheduling and playing “any team at any where philosophy”. And as a fan of WAC football you really have to look forward to this season with an eye on how your team is doing but also on how the other teams in the WAC are fairing with their out of conference games. Some of the games to keep note of Fresno vs.UCLA, Nevada vs.Missouri and Texas Tech, New Mexico State vs. Nebraska, Idaho vs. Arizona State … With the popularity of the internet and fans on message boards slighting the WAC and Hawaii and referring to our team as being BCS team wannabes it inflames me to cheer passionately on behalf of Hawaii and the WAC because I have so much faith in the Hawaii team. And the WAC.
It’s more than being born and raised here. And rooting for the home team. Because I believe they’re more deserving of being held in higher regards than maybe a second, third, fourth preseason pick in the WAC in any other year but this one, especially with what they have on their plate…but looking at what the other teams have on their plates it’s really going to be a test of how the coaches, new offense and new players stepping in and persevering.
Marlis~ Whew! That was a mouthful, and tons to think about.
I agree and would like to add a few more things…Heart. These guys have so much to draw from that is heartfelt. The veteran players are going back to exact some revenge on a SEC team. They’ll never forget what was done to colt and company.
Then, it’s about a team that is blossoming…reaching full maturity. We have so much of it, that it’ll overwhelm their opponents. The depth of this team can be measured by the talent at each of the defensive positons.
Defense looms large on the scale of 1 – 10. Offense will need to gel a long before making a firm committment,
Kona try go back sleep…nite all!
BK – Working hard, or maybe hardly working…
DON’T BE FOOLED
THERE IS NO COMPETITION AT QUARTERBACK
T. GRAUNKE WILL START
MCMACKIN JUST SAYS THERE IS QB COMPETITION TO DRAW MORE FANS, MOTIVATE THE PLAYERS AND SEEM LIKE THE TEAM IS PROGRESSING
DON’T BE FOOLED
EEYOW! Alexander looks like he’s in tip top shape. This is gonna be a great QB group. How many can the team retain on the roster? How deep should we be?
That water fountain looks yuck! ST ~ that is a pic to get on the front page of the sports section in the paper to help advertise for donations to UH…
hi ho, hi ho… Aloha Kakahiaka!!!
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
Great news on the blog bash party, we are having some special guests attend. They are Raha Hamza and Jamal Yousef from Africa. BTW – I just won $1.5 million dollars so I will send back everyone’s money and I’ll pay for the party myself.
Jim South – I hope if Graunke is going to be our starting QB in Florida, he better start getting his arse out to these unsupervised workouts. He hasn’t been out too often and if this is the type of leader that is going to be our starting QB, we are in trouble.
Good morning Tsaikos everywhere!
ST

Good morning Tsaikos. sun is starting to brighten the day here and know it will brighten your hearts.
pride, thanks. i have supported michelle since she started playing with us in the Maui Open when she was 10. what i am disturbed about is her play and course management. old golf axiom, “driving for show, putting for dough”, but right now in her case, it is “driving in the bugaleles and hope my putts go in”. you don’t want to be in the bugaleles and she should not be hoping, but knows it will.
last minute note for anyone who like to partake in muu call this evening on Maui. tentatively, it will be around 6 pm. will check to see if this new place, watercress, is open. if not, will be at tiffanys. will try to post exact time and place this afternoon.

It’s official: Florida is No. 1.Or, rather, No. 9. Or is it No. 6?
That depends on what preseason college football magazine you’re reading.
The final batch of summer preview magazines hit newsstands Tuesday with the Sporting News listing Florida at No. 9 in its preseason top 25 while Phil Steele gave the Gators a No. 1 ranking. Two other magazines were released earlier this month. Athlon had Florida at No. 1 while Lindy’s gave the Gators a No. 6 ranking.
Interestingly, the two magazines that did not give Florida a No. 1 ranking — Sporting News and Lindy’s — each had Georgia at No. 1.
And although the Sporting News had Florida at No. 9, they did predict the Gators would play in the Sugar Bowl, something Florida hasn’t done since the 2000 season.
Last season Florida finished 9-4 with a final ranking of No. 13.
I love reading about Florida. Gets my hackles up. Stir da pot, stir da pot.
I think a previous blog mentioned that Tyler was working hard at summer school to keep him academically eligible. It’s a balancing act.
Good luck to the Mililani guys!
C’mon guyz, step it up samoa!
66 dayz. 66 dayz. 66 dayz.
all da top playahs at all da schoolz are steppin up.
yu are not da only one.

Come one whitey, no need make code names, the place is called waterFALL.
BHF2 – send email to tsaikoparty at yahoo with your names. I need email to keep track of people attending.
I was wondering why anybody would call his restaurant waterCRESS… unless his name was Bulla.
Whitey – Any chance you guys will be getting together between the 13th and 18th of July?
Great posts, Marlis and bighilo.
Stretch
howzit I sent email test yesterday from jahns001athawaiidotrrdotcom. did you get it?
Morning gang –
Marlis, Good analysis on the overall WAC view. I too believe this could be a tight year for the top honors.
The title could go to a team with one, or several losses in conference play, due to extreme team talent.
We know Hawaii has talent, but it’s all about the gel with the new players coming in, especially our JUCO’s learning the system.
The LaTech game could be one of our toughest home conference battles, but I agree that the Nevada team will be on top with both Offense and D.
waterfall?
watercress?
no matter, as long as not denny’s.
umm. stretch, you what?
won what?
does stretchette know about this?
no forget rule #32, never tell the wife when you get extra money, other wise the money going leave your pocket in one hurry.
The water fountain is classic. I loved UH but the facilities were differently slack. I remember being in George Hall watching the dust balls roll around during class. I don’t know if its a management issue or a union issue.
As Rolovitch, Wieldon, and Graunke have shown. It takes at least 2 QBs to finish a season.
al – good advice, unfortunately she seen the tax returns already…. oh well….
c’mon Warriors, step it up.
Daniel Te’o Nesheim, UWashington’s DE soph last year who terrorized Colt, is working out at home in Hawn Paradise Park, Keaau. He’s listed as DE 6’4″ 245. No way! Da braddah got to be 265-270 pounds an packin sum speed. HUGE!
Das da kine competition da Oline gonna be facin in Florida. I’m excited fo yu!!!
watch da UH-Wash game film last year, an da SB film. da DE akshun, das da area I like watch da Oline respond to.
GO WARRIORS!!!!
BHF2 – check your email, I sent you something re:blog party
Jayson, no problem on dates. just let us know when you are available. we very flexible.
stretch, my man, you out of touch with maui. the new place is called watercress and it is a high class korean restaurant. you got to come here to catch up on your memory. we moving up. hahahahaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!
Great Morning All.
Good to see Billy Ray out there with the Warriors; looks like a good fit, eh?
Dat water fountain looks like it’s got freshman hazing potential – good ting dat no happen at UH. Right? RIGHT???
“high class” Korean restaurant??? how can you make kalbi and kim chi high class? Do the waitresses all wear hanbok?
Well, some things have improved at UH — the professors can no longer smoke cigarettes while lecturing!
And Gartley Hall is now air conditioned.
morning gang!
alexander looks hungry, hope the others stepping it up too
that water fountain is nasty, why they no just yank’em, yikes
great news on josh’s mom
high class korean restaurant on maui? oh oh, that means the prices going up in honolulu
have a safe and happy day
gigi, that’s why the muu call is going to be there if they are open. the tsaikos are moving up like my friend george jefferson. kalbi is cow beef and kim chi is very good looking. i think she is in her early twenties, but on the tall side.
ok, time to go meet the gang at Jacks, then put in some intense time on the range, so i can kick michelle’s arse when she challenges me (w/one arm tied behind her back). hahahahaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
Whitey – Cool! I will be back on Maui that week. I am always down for Tiffany’s if that is the norm.
morning and so much activity going on
kofe is perking and slowly getting my sh_t together
listening to LL who’s was interviewing DLow about tomorrow’s draft
back in a sec
gigi, clarify about the cow beef. these guys on maui raise “grass fed” cows, and before it is served, they “massage” it. do they do that in hnl?
loa, no worry brah, i don’t think this affect your price cause this is not on the dark side, but located on the border. unless darth and his gang start an invasion from the dark side, i think it will be ok.
ok, gotto go. have a great day!!!!!
whitey — I prefer “beer-fed” cows. Actually, the steak in Tokyo melted in my mouth after just 1 – 2 chews! Best cow I ever tasted!
back with da kofe
listening to interview with UAfoa new ad at STL. congrats to him and da oddah crusaders d1 and bulla. know of sure KS big island really going miss him and principal really wanted him to stay.
*DPK pats his opu and counts a record number of “after-jiggles”. He thinks to himself; “Okay, okay, I WILL start walking today. Enough is enough. And I won’t dare join the unsupervised workouts, though. Those gallant young men have enough of a challenge each day. They don’t need to be exposed to the tragi-comedic and sometimes disturbing spectacle of my work outs.”* 😳
now coach mac on LL
coach mac seems to happy with all qb’s but is impressed w/ alexander. mentioned hard to cut down to three by week befor 1st game.
back to his golfing w/JJ on kauai
heads up lizk dey all on your isles even stretch
Good morning everyone! 😉
marlis- That has to be one of the best preseason posts… EVER!!! Keep it coming cuz.
Monsieur Tsai,
The pics and back stories have really elevated the blog’s quality. More, more! Exciting to see how hard Alexander is working, and the footwork stuff is great news.
Na Koa golf tourney on Kauai today. Unfortunately I not invited. The boss is playing so I gave him a few flyers to the party and asked him to give to Mack and JD (if he is around).
Folks keep saying how our offense may take time to gel, and that JJ is gone and Colt is gone and blah blah blah. News flash: Ron Lee’s version of the RnS kicks a*s, and they have the guys to execute it. This team is going to surprise.
Stretch ~ Are you on island today?…or are you goin’ buy one island today?
Koakane ~ You goin’ practice today my EIS pahtna? Pops like go take a few reps!
D1 ~ How ’bout if da Kapolei Warrior Express rolls by your shop to pick you up and whisk you away to watch a little football?
Homey ~ Eh Homes!…whats on your agenda today? Like go ride gangsta ka’awela? The boyz of UH need to see what REAL guns look like.
Fiddy one! 😆
Alojahz Gangeh…
ST – Nice story on Fonoti, cannot wait to see him and Veikune and the rest of the DE’s unloading on people and wrecking havoc on opposing offenses. Glad to see all the boys beastin in the weight room, getting in shape.
If anyone interested in eating at Todai Restaurant Waikiki, give them a call at 947-1000 to make a reservation. Might have to leave a message after the “beep”
Wow, that picture of that water fountain is classic. All you can do is shake your head in disgust…and the funny thing I bet you that fountain still going remain there for oh I dunno couple days, weeks, months…hmmm…lose money
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
Great news on the blog bash party, we are having some special guests attend. They are Raha Hamza and Jamal Yousef from Africa. BTW – I just won $1.5 million dollars so I will send back everyone’s money and I’ll pay for the party myself.
and you couldn’t catch my lunch? kden, make la dat.
good morning peoples………….
Stretch,
Was that post above about the blog bash guests and your lucky win a real one or the work of a prankster? Please clarify, because if it’s true I plan to become your new best friend. 😆
The one at 4:23 am to be specific, best friend.
If anyone interested in eating at Todai Restaurant Waikiki, give them a call at 947-1000 to make a reservation. Might have to leave a message after the “beep”
wait a minute……………………..”false Stretch”?
wow, I can only be your friend if I have money??
BTW – before anyone get’s excited, they were all from the spam emails that were coming to the account.
___th!
Stretch,
Sorry, my reaction was based on spam emails I recieved. I guess we’re still friends… *sigh* 😆
How did San Jose Community College guys find their way to the workouts?

DON’T BE FOOLED
THERE IS NO COMPETITION AT QUARTERBACK
T. GRAUNKE WILL START
MCMACKIN JUST SAYS THERE IS QB COMPETITION TO DRAW MORE FANS, MOTIVATE THE PLAYERS AND SEEM LIKE THE TEAM IS PROGRESSING
DON’T BE FOOLED
I think you got it wrong. Graunke should have been starting this year but issues have set him back. Plus, he’s really pissing me off as a Senior not leading by example. YOUR issues should be taking care of, so YOU can be out there with YOUR team that YOU as a Senior are supposed to lead! I hope Graunke understands this NOW, cause he’s starting to lose my faith. If you going act like second string than you going play as second string bruddah! C’mon Tyler I want to see you out there and hope that with your skills and experience will lead us as you’ve done in the past!
Brian Smith has been pleased with Kia’s progress. Said on the radio that Estes needs to get stronger.
Hope Billy Ray hits the weights, looking a little tweeny…hope Craig bulks him up shmall kine.
No worry Pauoa Boy. Billy Ray still young boy. Maturity will put on some good pounds naturally. Braddah Billy get the natural speed. Das definitely what we need.
From Yesterday…
Jason:
June 24th, 2008 at 10:02 pm
Pauoa Boy: Man, you call everybody uncle and aunty. I bet you’re around my older sister’s age; that’s close enough. So do what I do — call them grandma and grandpa.
Haha, Jason I just call everybody unko and aunteh out of respect. Eventhough most are older than us, they not that old to be called grams and gramps. Some may be but I’m sure they rather be called unko/aunteh instead of gramma/grampeh. 🙂
prideperiod – Yup, I can see him and Kalua Noa streaking the sidelines taking it to the house. Maybe he need to come to some Tsai-ko CC to put on the pounds 🙂 Nah, I know he going get biggah once he join the rest of the boys.
Refering to the Tyler G. issue, we all know he has the talent and experience to be our # 1 QB.
He had intentions on taking over the posistion with last years media comments stating,”Next year is my turn.” Kinda assuming, ya ?
I really enjoy watching him play, and he posseses the arm and running capabilty to take us to the lead, but there are some inconsistency moments.
If he can shed this off field baggage, then the job will be his.
But I do see 3 top QB’s sharing the field time with proper rotation.
Aloha Kakahiaka!
What a wonderful football day!
Mahalo, marlis for getting my mind off my “different” yesterday. It was a little unsettling – one of those “uncomfortable push” responses to perceived injustices (why I no can keep my mouf shut…???? Let someone else be an agent of change!)
ah,
pah,
life is short. stick up (try not to stick out, but sometimes no can help) for ke ala pono.
So- we keep the QB wheel spinning in the minds of those who may be lurking here to “get da scoops”on what kind of competition UH is bringing to DA TABLE dis year.
All I can say is that I have made the biggest effort in my life to invest personally in the success of this team and I ain’t doin it out of PITY!!!
Bwahahahaha! 😈
WARRIORS WILL REPRESENT!
WE BELIEVE!
hiho
oh yeah- hiya Stretch!
I guess a certain football alum won’t be answering my business email den today, eh?
Mack Attack comes to Kauai!
Woo Hoo!
MARLIS: Good analysis and very thoughtful.
STRETCH: Strange – usually the Nigerian bankers give more $$$ than 1.5. I think you are being cheated! (Maybe you can replace that water fountain when you send the moneys needed to Nigeria!)
WHITEY: Break 70s!!! Duffer playing with you?
Maverick – Knowing Coach Mack, I don’t think he likes to rotate QB’s. I would hope he re-thinks his statement as we have loads of talent behind center this year with each QB bringing in his own lil sumtin, sumtin to add.
Re: Quarterbacks.
Coach Mack said he is going to pick one quarterback, probably by the end of the second week of training camp, and stick with him as the No. 1 guy. There won’t be any rotating, as far as I know.
Wonderful morning earthlings!
Kekoa – Thanks for the offer. What time of the day are you talking about? I hope the ride isn’t inside the trunk. 😯
re: Q. Beaver
I saw him practice this past spring. Huge buggah but he has to trim some weight and work on his footwork and lateral movement. He’ll be a force once he gets into game shape.
Mapquest?
ST – I remember Coach Mack saying that, hope whoever #1 is will have his game face on in the Swamp!
Good to see not only former Mililani HS players coming out for unsupervised workouts but other students of the game too.
homey – I figured a guy like Quentin who is that big might have trouble moving around. Hope he can develop his footwork and learn how to use leverage in the trenches, I don’t think anyone would be able to hold him on the line. At 6’1″ 350lbs. that’s a load to try and pancake. The good thing is he is only a Freshman and has a couple years to turn into a monster on the Dline! He’s going to be all “G” as in GRAZY on the DLine for years to come!
mapquest – bwahaha
PB – another thing I noticed is he got knocked off his feet a few times. With time he’ll develop and contribute to the Warrior defense. What I would like to see is a DT that can do it all; control the line, bull rush, penetrate with awesome technique, stop the run, rush the QB, run down ball carriers, disrupt the traps, have a great motor, never give up, play every down with intensity…hey, sounds like “Da Beast”.
Oh shnap almost forgot about my Fantasy Football Draft, catch you guys in a few…
Good morning Stephen and Tsai-kos! It’s another beautiful day, hope you all have a great one wherever you are.
Stephen, is practice going to be at 3p.m. again today? See you there
g-nalo, stretch special guest can not make the blogbash because they were tested for use of a banned substance while in buffet line. bwhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and back to work 😀
homey – No doubt, one guy I’m keeping an eye on is Vaughn Meatoga. I think he has that kind of potential to be that type of DT. Only considered a Freshman as well, I could see both he and Quentin killing it in a couple years.
gigi – be assertive! Tell hubby that you plan to stay late at the blog party and that he can go home early to rest for his workout while you catch a ride home with someone. BTW, how does he golf and lift weights with his arthritic hands?
That water fountain must be hidden. Wouldn’t you think the highly paid custodians or student hires would clean it up?
Au’ryte I’m picking second in my draft, wonder who I should pick…hope Ladainian Tomlinson doesn’t go first…
PB – not too early for FF draft?? What if a player gets cut of hurt??
homey if you coming we got to make like camellia’s…….. share homey on right and kaoakane on left side of trunk. bwhaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Good Moahning Koakane. How are you today? I stay using my bessest speaking voice foa you. I no like you foa tink I stay one tita hah. You know koakane you stay so funnie. Everytime I stay hear you talk you make me laugh. A cents of humor to me is da most impoatant ting.
Homey ~ Are you in the downtown area today? If you are still selling Colt bobble head dolls on the corner of King & Bishop would be perfect! I can just do a drive-by! No mo room in da trunk I get some meat to drop off at Genji’s on da way to UHM, so you can ride in da front.
Stretch – I not worried I’ve been my FF league champion 3 years in a row 05,06,07. My thing is not to necessarily go for the star players but the impact players depending on the league scoring settings.
Good morning tsaikos…another great day in Hawaii Nei..
Stretch – got to agree about TG. He needs to show more leadership. I think Inoke has shown leadership and Alexander is showing tremendous drive….he looks like he is in top shape, at least in the pictures posted. Oh, BTW, I called Todai at the number you gave out…the manager was “VERY HAPPY” to hear from me….BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
KK – You work? Just kidding my friend. BTW, I think you got mixed up, in that duo, you would be Jerry and I would be Dean….mwahahahahahaha
Tom/Stretch – You guys too eh? I actually was planning on filling for millions in an account in Venezuela when two people (quite possibly relatives of mine with the same asian last name) were killed in a car accident and left millions of unclaimed cash in a bank account that I could get since we had the same last name….mwahahahahahaha, when I get that money, I’ll cover the cost of the party…
hubby is a kool kat. He said he will forgo his workout on the 10th and stay at the blog bash til it ends. He is looking forward to the steak and turkey…
kw nice meeting with you last nite glad at MBC pau hana cc. didn’t think you could make it but stretch, james and wreck talked plenty about you after you left. notice you looking more at james and wreck with side eye to tall guy. got to meet oddah tsaiko’s latta. ❗
ST nice article on Fonoti.
gigi – is there steak and turkey?? you sure??

stretch, I think they were on the menu that kekoa and wreck discussed.
Stretch – I thought it was turkey and Kau Yuk…..???? MWahahahahahaha
no wonder you sounded half asleep on the phone at 715 this morning. You had one GOOD time with koawahine. Maybe she should change the name to wildwahine.
Pauoa Boy ~ Hey bull!…good to have one nephew dat show big kine respect to all da Unko’s and aunties in da Tsaiko Ohana. Proud to have you call me “Unko Kekoa!” Right on.

Re the drinking fountain in Klum Gym: Look to see some change soon – either repair it or to take it out.

Ai! I wasssss looking at Jaaammessss. Back off KW or I going nailsss you. Stretch can’t live up to his name. Been there. Done that. James will make me feel like a real woman!
James, is that the ONLY song Koakane knows?
Stretch – or more like wicked wahine…like that perfume KK used to buy at ABC Stores….located on any corner in Waikiki….mwahahahahahaha
James – I think it was changed to hamburger and friend chicken, more cheap and get more quantity.
James – Not 100% sure but I think it was changed to hamburger and friend chicken, more cheap and get more quantity.
hey guys, is this what NYUH calls “chit chat”? If so, he will be annoyed.
Koakane… Who is “kw”?
MBC cattle call?… are you “TUI”?
Typing under the influence?
Wreck–
kw = koawahine
MBC = Monterey Bay Canners
Stretch, Quantity is right… you posted twice… 🙂
koa-mahu – Oh sssstoph it!!! You’re making me blush now!!! Such a tease!!!
MWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA
KK – I still don’t think you got it right the first time….I gotta either be Dean or Frank…not Jerry…mwahahahahaha
gi oh I mean homey thanks
Yeah, I agree with James. KK is like Jerry Lewis – a bundle of laughs. James is like Dean Martin, singing with a glass of scotch in his hand.
Unko Kekoa – no worries I know I would catch cracks or get dah slippah wacks das why 🙂
Wreck – wassup my friend…long time no see…. 🙂 SO, when is da next practice??

Wreck, actually Homey is the guy to ask! He reads every post religiously. He scares me!
James… I am sure he is talking to himself too…
gigi we chatting about football ………….. eva watch “Remember the Titans”

James, hmmm, isn’t JD kinda fat? But that’s your taste in men…
WHO’S PAYING ATTENTION???? ohhh….I see, I guess I’d better “PAY ATTENTION!”
Can’t believe that kool kat is still looking forward to the food! To each his/her own, I’ll be hanging with the Tsaiko’s in da hood. 😆
Gigi… His “mean looking” animals scare me too…
Homey ~ You sold out?! So wat you gotta go see your sports book connection at 3:45? Shoots, by den, all us guys goin’ be yellin’ at da players like BHF2 would do if he were here. Try wait!…he is here! He just not going make it to practice…he get law and order stuff to do today for his client.
Maybe next time…tsai!

JD= Jack Daniels….instead of Scotch
Pauoa Boy:

Finally, What do the following professional athletes both active & retired have in common: Tony Gonzalez, Pat Neshek, Desmond Howard, Ricky Williams, D’Marco Farr, Prince Fielder and Salim Stoudamire. First person to come up with the correct answer will receive a dinner for two at The India Cafe on Kapahulu Avenue. Deadline 5 am: Wednesday, June 25.
Capitol -ist/WassupDoc, the answer to this question is that each of these athletes are on Vegan diets. Each has cut out meats and such in their respective diets to help promote a healthier lifestyle.
So what, where my dinnah stay?
:shocked: Did Gigi just call JD “F”, “A”, “T”. on the blog!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?
poor hubby. Everybody knows who he is, but hubby knows nobody! Gotta give him credit for being willing to meet his wife’s friends. How many husbands would be willing to do that?
Jamie, yes I know Jack Daniels. He’s fine.
Jack Daniels… Ohh yah… That Bottle is large… Whewww.
I was ready to run away from the SMU bug… 😯
Whitey, did u talk to Jerry to set up your arse kickin? Did I tell you I have 3 arms?
Yeah, think you better practice hard like I am this week, you know maybe if I win I will take a short vacation in Maui for some R&R. Uh, Heard some old dementia guy on Maui calling me out, uh, you know I usually take it easy on the seniors. Right now you know, the odds on me winning the Open is 50-1, you know, should be 6-5, as my game has elevated in last month. Um Old man, listen to your cohorts, gigi, Tommui, & LizK. They are my superfans not like you and pride. Com’n guys, jump back on the bandwagon, its ready to roll.
gigi – FYI, I don’t read every post religiously. I created a script that accesses the the blog entries and filters out meaningful information (algorithm created to do this). The post is then flagged and copied and then an email is created and sent to my inbox.
😉
Wreck…I wasn’t going to say anything in hopes that I read that wrong but…..
gigi – about as many wives who have met us and still want to hang out with us or let their husbands hang out with us…..
haha @ Michelle
gigi…Do you mean me?? Who’s this Jamie character???
Sheesh, I know all my wife’s friends! Do you folks live under a rock?
Wreck – hey, I played with the turtles yesterday and they hissed and clawed at me! They are MEAN!
huh, homey? sounds like a lot of work to just read chit chat. haha
Gigi gurl, your man hubby can rock me to sleep. I seen hisss chest at 24hours and ohh gurl he can eat my steak like it was on the buffet! You are a lucky B gurl! You take care of your man. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmm mmmmm!
Homey – Turtles??? I thought Flotsom and Jetsom were poodles???
It’s great that he comes out but he, and you too, needs to walk around to meet people. Don’t just sit there and wait for people to come to you. This coming party, there will be minimal tables to sit down at, it will be cocktail tables where people will keep mingling among the crowd.
Homey That is what I am saying… Even your Mailbox looks mean! Just Mean!
crap cleaning my computa, desk and keyboard again.
next time going make like pilipino’s and put plastic over it so no can mess it up 😉
to funny just to funny
PB, I believe Kekoa was the FIRST to answer Doc’s question, so I guess he wins the dinner at India Cafe.
Just read an article that mentioned China not only has the most Chinese restaurants but also hosts the most websites that spread malware.
Stretch, Gigi will get there early and make sure she has a table right Gigi 🙂
Koa mahu, you sure that is Gigi’s hubby?
I can’t picture people standing for 4 hours at the bash. Will be interesting to see.
koa-mahu – I sthaw him first!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHA
I thought PB got it yesterday… hmmm…
Morning Tsaikos!
Missed my chance to meet Billy Ray at da Beast’s party…thanks for the pic ST.
Fresno St. playing Georgia at 1pm for the CWS title. GO WAC!
Wreck – I’m too lazy to bolt my mailbox to the wooden platform so to keep it in place I put some rocks in the mailbox.
James – Don’t get me started on the guinea pigs!
homey…I guess I better get rid of my chinese computer than…MWAHAHAHAAHAHA
gigi – some people were standing the whole time at Genji’s, over 7 hours!! There will be chairs around but we want to promote people walking around chit chatting with others. If we make tables, people will get their arse stuck and not move around. They will only talk to people who sit around them, sound familiar??
Midori7 – just think, if FSU didn’t lose that lead in the 8th to UGA, they would be national champs already…..C’mon FSU, you can do it!!!
gigi…one word…MINGLE
gigi – The A-House’s, darling couple, split up when they attend CC’s so they can speak with more people. It’s ok to mingle, I wouldn’t worry that someone will hit on hubby…
But then again at the last CC, the A-House’s got a private booth…aristocrats.
eyezzzz I know that is him. you the one with broken eyez.
James. ohh no honey I saw you first you stud. your name is jamie? we match hon, I got a girl name and a boy name too. outta here. call me!
Stretch – Any word on the count for the party so far??? Just want to make sure people get ample opportunity to make their reservations for the BLOG BASH….Gonna be a great party with great prizes!!! But more importantly, good fellowship, good friends, and good FUN!!!
I got real tired of walking and standing at the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo. Did it for 1-1/2 hrs and then I told hubby “Let’s leave.”
99 yr old wahine needs to sit!
Stretch – Other than AWH, any other person offered to treat me? James got treated…
koa – mahu ….STOP IT!!! I saw him first, honey….and I don’t know who this Jamie character that gigi is talking about is…..MWAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
Okay gang, have to go to the store to get some medicine. I think I may be coming down with a cold. Hopefully not but better to be preventing something from starting. Anyway, talk to you guys later.
GO WARRIORS!!!
Alrighty then…
Not going to address some one anymore… LOL I for one am not going to fight over Gigi’s hubby…
LMAO!
Homey,
thanks for the props regarding ryan; he is getting acclimated and into his routine, being part polar bear, he is sleeping almost 12 hours, lifting 2 hours, running 1 hour, and probably eating the rest of the day, haha.
we are so looking forward to seeing him in a few weeks for fall camp, strength tests coming up in two weeks…..he’ll be ready.
Tsaikos, have a great day in Hawaii Nei :):):)
Current count is 82 plus some others who have not sent an email yet but know will show up.
I got a call from the CR distributor and he was willing to pay for you. He said that you are his No 1 customer.
gigi – Okay then, go ahead and sit at a cocktail table for 4 hours. As Bobby Brown would say, “that’s your prerogative”. 😆
What will be the ratio of women to men at the bash? 1:10? Lots of guys to look at and drool over, gals, so sign up.
midori only for you……..ummmmmmmm choke choke ummmmmmm go Fresno St.
oh I hate dem guys.
OKAY, MY BEEG MISTAKE. I looked at yesterday’s blog again, and sure enough, PB ANSWERED DOC’S QUESTION FIRST.
Not Kekoa!
Sorry, PB, you win…I think.
Stretch – 😆 I think I’ll branch out and pray to the Patron gods too! I may be able to get some extra stash for Bulla!
gigi – Other than Sumurai al, there is no guy to drool over. Well maybe Jason since he is still young and virile and al’s son!
Gigi ~ In case you missed my post last night, here it is again because it sounds like you are trying to defend your “cool cat.”
You wrote:
My reply was:
Sorry Gigi, I must say, Barry is not like hubby at all. Barry understands and appreciates our Polynesian culture and has embraced it fully with his family. He knows how to openly share what he owns and covets nothing.
He is like a brother to all of us, and in fact gave me something just the other day that he noticed I thought was unique. No hesitation, just here…take it, it’s yours!
All we hear from you is “Hubby says we have to leave at a certain time.” “Hubby says we have to arrive before a certain time.” “Hubby says this…Hubby says that.”
When will we ever hear, “I told Hubby I want to arrive early and stay late.” Be honest…Would he balk at that demand?
Lighten up David, Gigi says you are Haole, but you don’t have to act like one. Come join us and talk story. Tell us about your hopes and dreams and unload that sports drawer that is full of opinions on Warrior Football. No be scared, come and wala’au with us. That’s what this blog is really all about, we just like to take the fun way around the block to get to the Football field and the really good stuff.
Peace Out!
homey, you are a guy, right? so how da heck would you know what a gal finds attractive? haha
yeah, kekoa, I saw it. But I like haole guys!
Maybe a psychic check-in with Dionne Warwick allowed them to backtrack from “the way TO San Jose”
Should’ve asked a harder question like, “What is the last four digits of pi?”
Sheesh, with all this gender funk going on today, no one would have even noticed Boy George if his visa had been approved.
Kekoa,
Tanks, but no can make it to practice today.
Plus, no like saklut homey.
gigi – I know because I ask them. And the only way to ask them is to approach them and talk with them. Boy, that’s a lot of “them” I just wrote.
“gigi-hawaii ©:
June 25th, 2008 at 11:08 am
yeah, kekoa, I saw it. But I like haole guys!”
Kekoa… You lose
Yah Homey but that is a mean-looking “Them” you wrote…
so homey approaches a gal and asks what men she finds attractive. Naturally, she says, “You, of course, Homey!!!”
gigi – I think you are misinterpreting Kekoa’s true meaning of not being haole. If not then carry on.
gigi – no no no…first you gotta feel comfortable with the person, you don’t just blurt out stuff. Then after 6 beers you ask anything you like! 😆

OKAY, MY BEEG MISTAKE. I looked at yesterday’s blog again, and sure enough, PB ANSWERED DOC’S QUESTION FIRST.
Not Kekoa!
Sorry, PB, you win…I think.
Aunty Gigi – No matter if I won or not, cause I stay in Cali anyway. That’s why I was talking to Jason saying he could go in my place if the dinner is actually going, since he knew the answer too. Not sure if Jason would go or not. But if not then Unko Kekoa can take the dinner. Not even sure if it’s legit, so who knows. Just wanted to answer it…das all!
Where’s the A-House’s? There’s a ghost thingy in the above picture with Alexander. Looks like it’s a huge one! 😯
homey only thing one can say and that is ………………………… whooooosh
btw is that the reason we drink more den 6 beers? 😛
PB, uh, I think you should know that UNKO in Japanese means “doo doo.” Blogger Las Vegas told me that the Japanese refer to the Asahi Brewery symbol as unko.
The reason we drink more than 6 beers is because it is liquid pupu.
So I just pau my FF draft and did decent I think, I got 5 of the top 25 I had targeted in the draft…so not bad odds. This is my team in case anyone gives a chit:
QB Tony Romo Dallas Cowboys
David Garrard Jacksonville Jaguars
RB Steven Jackson St.Louis Rams
Edgerrin James Arizona Cardinals
LenDale White Tennessee Titans
Kevin Smith Detroit Lions
WR Braylon Edwards Cleveland Browns
Greg Jennings Green Bay Packers
Joey Galloway Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Santana Moss Washington Redskins ( hoping Colt plays 🙂 )
Jerry Porter Jacksonville Jaguars
TE Dallas Clark Indianapolis Colts
Alge Crumpler Tennessee Titans
K Neil Rackers Arizona Cardinals
DEF Green Bay Packers
6 beers!!! Don’t you slur your speech and stagger and trip over chairs? I find that the 1st beer always tastes best. The 2nd one is over-kill and doesn’t taste as good.
I like the faint buzz a 1st beer gives me. But I really don’t like feeling drunk cause it makes me want to vomit.
Sheesh Aunty Gigi, kay find den…sorry Uncle Kekoa 🙂
yeah, PB, when you say unko in Japan, people say you have a potty mouth.
Hi again kokane. Tanks for lass night. I had a wunnerful time.
And you make pretend girl, koa-wahine, you goin get one big slap from my koa-paddle. Koakane iz a reeo man girl…as foa you…you wasn’t born wit da right goods girl, so you know wat mary…take a hike, cause the koaman iz mine.
dog unko – lucky
chicken unko – wimp, coward, liar
bull unko – not true
eat unko – screw you
good unko – the good stuff
There are many many more!
Gigi – We try to accomodate you at every turn. Folks are being real hospitable considering the tension caused. I’m surprised you don’t feel it. Ok…taking my Tsaiko-therapy shingle down and moving on. Can’t teach the blind to see.
Homey pack it in bud. We got the rest of the island to save yet. You take from Mililani to North Shore. I’ll work the east side to UH Manoa.
I wonder who came up with the quote “Beer taste like piss”, hmmm…makes you think how he came up with that ah, auwe.
E kala mai. dis computa stuff iz all so brand new foa me. I meant to yell at koa-mahu. Whoah I get so mad juss saying dat name KOA-MAHU. See, I no can even tink.
Aunty Gigi – I sorry, I know sometimes I talk to much chit when I chat, what a potty mouth, where’s dat soap and water for clean um out…
I guess Unko is UNCOOL….sawwwwweeeee 🙂 lol
homey – Dat was the Unko brah, get anymoa for share
nyuck nyuck nyuck
is anyone else dreading a 1230 kickoff at Florida? Oh, play a continent away during the hottest part of their day? be not surprised… its a huge disadvantage. Questions is… How is our boys gonna train for that? start now maybe… one practice a week or every other week in full sweats? it would kill. but 90degrees+ with 100%+ humidity? gotta start feeling the hurt now… those gators are used to it.
Hope everyone’s cheering on FSU!
You should have seen us at the end of the night at Genji’s. Mumbling, tripping over table legs, talking nonsense to the waitress, singing with the microphone upside down, saying hi to everyone every 2 minutes, yelling “more wine”, jun ken po to see who would drive…
Hello everyone! Lunch time for me at work today…
Interestingly, Peaches sits down at events and seldom moves. But she recognizes almost everybody by face and blog name and is very comfortable wherever she sits. Probably because after attending over 30-40 parties, cattle calls, karaoke calls, tailgates, etc., she has met those who she has sat with/near and those who stopped by to chat… and slip her jaeger bombs… 😉 I guess quantity of attendance counts too.
It is scary to see a drunkard drive. Thought hubby would hit a tree, then he drove in the middle of 2 lanes on the freeway, just could not drive straight in 1 lane. Almost killed me, our baby, and himself.
2nd time he got drunk, he backed the car into our shed in the car port.
he tries not to drink and drive now. he is more aware of his actions.
PB –
unko happens – you never know
horse unko – cowboy slang for bull unko
holy unko – unbelievable
…
Howzit SteveM ~ I can see that you and Peaches won’t be needing our Tsaiko-therapy services. Are you able to cut loose early today and swing by the practice field?
pb to slow to respond befoa you send sorry.
no worry da wessai got you back, ok to use unko we undastand wea you comming from. can us unk, unc, papa, cuz, cusin, we know even if we come from different plantation camps. lol
…cont.
dip unko – dummy
same old unko – boring stuff
no unko – fo’ reals?
hot unko – person needs a slap on the head
unko hits the fan – oh oh
give a unko – yes honey, i’ll throw out he rubbish
up unko creek – unko hit the fan
unko bricks – what happens when up unko creek and the unko hit the fan.
g-nalo, stretch special guest can not make the blogbash because they were tested for use of a banned substance while in buffet line. bwhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and back to work
too bad, was going offer to treat them blog bash. 🙂
Koakane – okay sistah.
taking off going have lunch with bhf2 so back lattas
play nice and kw no punch out km
alojahs
Ok…just heard from Koakane. He’s meeting BHF2 for lunch at Da Chart House in case anyone is in the area…and den he will attend practice.
He is still looking for memorable stuff from Tsaikos. I’m bringing in the Hawaiian Flag I held up in NOLA that appeared on the front page of the HA and on all the local TV news clips, Fan Fest, and CC at Harrah’s with all the Tsaikos posing with it. It was proudly displayed inside the Sugar Bowl while we sang Hawaii Pono’i. Chicken skin moment for sure.
gigi – Somehow I can picture hubby as a drunkard. Reminds me of Harvey Korman doing a drunk skit.
homey what about unko kea?
hiho
Kekoa – Memorabilia? I’ll bring the land speed record holder truck James drove me home in.
Aiyah to much Unko going on… too much buss laugh ova hea homey
whoa almost neva see kekoa’s message
changing to Sam Choy’s because close to airport and bhf2 no going get traffic when he catches plane at 3.
Just posted a pic of some of our favorite sports folks. Note how the slimmed-down Reagan Mauia.
I’ve got the big banner. Plus, I’ve got a huge poster of what was on our first T-shirt.
Kekoa — no, can’t make it. I seldom get done by 1600. Lots of work to complete before the end of the fiscal year.
Actually, I don’t pass judgment on “Hubby,” because I’ve never heard any complaints from the, uh, hubby’s mouth. It’s usually his spokeswoman who files the complaints. From my experience, “Hubby” is quite the gentleman. He’s also quite patient, as we’ve all learned.
Jack Thompson! I remember watching his games as a little kid with amazement.
homey,
No talk unko, eh!
Wow, good ting Reagan making ’nuff to buy a new wardrobe.
Gigi, you and hubby need to mingle more, that’s why you didn’t meet g-nalo and some of the others at Genji’s.
Unko-ie – Not up to standards
Unko faced – Has drank too much alcohol; also see “Koakane”
Koakane… Has drank too much alcohol.
Take an Unko – Relieving of one’s self without actually taking anything anywhere
Aww Unko – Check this out!
For Unkos and Giggles – just for the heck of it
That was the Unko! – It was awesome beyond basic imagination
Taste like Unko – The flavor was not up to par and was resentful; (Note: please do not ask Koa-Mahu for this definition by all means)
Unko, Unko, Unko!!! – Missing the opportunity to go to the 2nd anniversary blog bash because you waited too long to RSVP. 🙂
eh, homey no make fun of the “orbs” – they going get you someday!!
see, even UH get “orbs” or spirits lurking – good sign for the upcoming season!!!!
ST:
did you share the water fountain pic with Jim D?
Take an Unko – Relieving of one’s self without actually taking anything anywhere
haaa, everything but the true meaning of “unko”, finally!
Unko, Unko, Unko!!! – Missing the opportunity to go to the 2nd anniversary blog bash because you waited too long to RSVP.
isn’t this for when get line for MEN’s Toilet?
Jake Thompson has felt the wrath of Mrs. Kekoa when he asked her to teach him to play the guitar. When he failed to follow her chord changes, he got a head slap from her that was far worse then a D-lineman….later in his career at Cincy it helped him survive outside the pocket.
Hello Tsaikos
Stretch – I read your email to Chawan…YOU were the one yelling left..lol. But it was still funny that you said Chawan still lost to me.
The Great and All Mighty Stephen Tsai – Do you know any news about Brandon Rodd from Aiea? I know he didnt go to UHM but hes a former student of mine that was signed by the Oakland Raiders.

eh Kekoa, i bet “That was the Unko!”?
Let’s shoot the messenger.
it was me BUT it was koakane’s fault, he is the one who gave me that darn red cup.
You are right g-nalo…
“Unko, Unko, Unko!!!” could be used by Koakane when they yell “last call!” Das alright though. He is one awesome buggah. For more information please see “Koakane” on the 12:39 post…
unko for brains – self explanatory
g-nalo ~ Gotta learn to play duck duck goose or you get da slap! LOL!
gotta go turn Pops loose on da boyz! laters….
Fresno St vs Georgia has started. No score yet, bottom one. Georgia home team
homey,
re: “ghost thingys” in pictures
i had these 2 pictures here of another guam sunset where you see something reflecting the sun in 2 different spots. can’t be a plane as that’s the bay down there and the only in the water was a canoe. what else would reflect the sun like that???
and my camera’s not that dirty, or that spot would appear in all my pictures in the same place.
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a387/chawan_cut/A015.jpg
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a387/chawan_cut/A018.jpg
hard to say it, but yes, go Fresno! beat them Georgia Dawgs.
A-House – I look forward to seeing an orb in person…Bulla doesn’t count.
Chawan – that is just a Guamanian dust particle.
homey:
I sure do not want to be with you when you see one.
I have had many experiences where I cannot explain what happened, but I know it happened. My late Mother was no stranger to what I refer.
homey – you forgot “little unko” – a bratty, know it all kid….
Stretch – That was u yelling left??? What red cup?? I didn’t get one??? MWAHAHAHAHAHA
Home run Fresno!! 2-0
chawan is showing his feminine side again.
maybe why he was so popular at saturday nights bowling.
homey:
Chawan’s pictures are quite interesting in the size and intensity of the “object”.
It would be a hell of a dust particle that glows that brightly and at different positions in the photos. My Chomoro friends would have a big kick out of this.
Hiflyer..I may need some help with my bike engine…can? or no can??
lakerj32,
When did he show his other side? LOL
Jesse James, don’t know a lot about bike engines but can try.
it was me BUT it was koakane’s fault, he is the one who gave me that darn red cup.
haaa, oh another “unko faced”??!! oh wait……….you was “Koakane” too??!!
A-House – I’m no stranger to the unexplained. I worked in Kawaiahao Plaza and walked through the graveyard on the grounds of Kawaiahao church every workday. As you may know there are many children buried there and whenever I would get to work my shoes were untied. I blame those kolohe spirits.
Hiflyer…I have the mechanics manual for this particular engine. Once I get it off the frame…hopefully soon, I just want to tear it down and rebuild it. I’ve worked with engines before but more of a backyard mechanic with a lot of trial and error….just don’t want to screw up too badly….LOL
Homey –
As a charter member of my Orbs Club, I commend you for your vigilence and detection of the orb. You have refined your skills, and I commend you. Well done!
Alright gotta go to to work now, seez u all latta.
A-House – it could also be a water particle, bug, pollen…still Guamanian though.
I have had many experiences where I cannot explain what happened, but I know it happened.
A-House, at first glance thought you was referring to being “Koakane” next morning? 🙂
but seriously, “unko” no, don’t need to see an orb…….EVER!
Chawan-
I believe those two splendid sunset photos with “unexplained” objects qualifies you for admission to my Orbs Club. Would you be interested in joining? There are no membership fees. My other charter member, Wreck, will definitely congratulate you on capturing on film these manifestations of “something”. If you have no objection, welcome to the club!
BTW, only for this CWS championship game, GO FSU!!! Bring pride and glory to the WAC!
Mrs. A-House (Orbs Club President) – If you blow up the picture and look at the orb closely you can see an intricate design within the orb!
OMG- I am jes ROTFLMAOOL (Out Loud) … no unko!!!
You guys are tooo much.
Koakane, I can bring my long Colt Brennan, HI’s Man poster (that Betty – Mrs. BG, helped me tape up at the T-Gate last year) next weekend. It survived many trips to home games last year!
hiho, mahalo all for the lun chow ah laugh fest!
ST- nice group of All Stars you got there!
So, Stretch says we’re at 85. Not sure if that includes our six.
Looks the Blog All-Stars will be playing to their first sellout concert.
Liz:
I think JJ took the pix.
3-0 bulldogs
Fresno St. 3-0 through 4 innings. Looking good!
Top of the fifth…3-0 Fresno St.
I think da Bulldogs goin’ ween. No unko.
would “unko” have been the eighth of George Carlin’s 7 words?
Don’t understand why some people are getting waaay too excited for Fresno St.
Good afternoon Tsaikos & Tsaikettes!
lakerj32- Forgot to say the other nite, welcome to the blog! You going to the blog party?
J-DOG,
Not really that excited; just really sure that at the end of the day ( 😯 ) the Bulldogs going be Champs.
ST- pls check your HA email 😉
Plus there’s nothing else to watch/do/follow at the moment. Unko!
GC was the unko!
Yep not that excited about FSU. More excited about WAC vs. SEC!!!
Top of 6th…3-0 FSU. Doing good FSU, rememba da fundamentals until game ova!!!
Go WAC!
homey – another one…when someone makes an obvious statement like, “Wow, receivers can catch the ball!!!” People respond by saying, “No unko Sherlock.”
UHfan808,
Wow, nevah know you coach baseball 🙂
Fresno State up 6-0
J-DOG – like d1 said, nothing else to do…
top of the 6th HR 6-0!
oh oh…the animal is coming out in UHFAN808…. 🙂
Wow! ‘da kid Steve Detwiler of Fresno has 6 RBI’s: 2HR and a double. 6-0 Fresno.
BTW, how did UH do against Fresno in the regular season. I no follow.
Whooo-hoooo! 3-run HR! Wheeeeeeeeee! Yay Detwiler!
d1- Not a coach, just a UH football fan in support of UH baseball etc. in UH sports withdrawls and wanting the WAC team to win. giggle.
Go WAC!!!!!!!!!!!!
JJ- grrrrrrr!
tough unko – too bad, suck it up.
d1…normally, I would say we need to put the “fun” back into fundamentals…but if UHFan is a coach…better watch out…mwahahahahahaha j/k
Woo hoo…top of 7th….6-0 FSU!!! GO WAC!!!
UHFAN…..cower cower cower….. 🙂
beat the unko out of… – what happens when you MMA with BJ Penn.
UHfan808 – you still didn’t get my pic message?
I would not be surprised if the Blog party was filled already… For those who have not sent your stuff in yet… YOU are not going to be able to go due to fire restrictions.
No one is safe… Do it now! Send an e-mail to get your tickets!!!
I have to concur with WRECK….sign up with Stretch now at tsaikoparty@yahoo.com. Only 3 days in and already 2/3 full. Sign up now….
Back to work soon.
JJ- lol
homey- Send pic again pleez???
Remember… All the special guest are part of the count too…
I don’t have access to a computer. How can I email Stretch?
UHfan808 – I deleted it but will send a test one to you.
homey,
just address the envelope to ‘stretch’….everyone knows him
NYUH: I believe UH split or nearly split their games with Fresno…..at home at least. L and L were talking about it this morning. Maybe it’s me, but I have no problem rooting for FS.
end of the 7th, Fresno leading 6-0.
6-0 through 7. Fresno St/WAC 6 outs away from Championship.
Bulla – okay, envelope sent. UNKO! dropped it in the mailbox and forgot to put the $$ inside!
homey – I don’t think UHFan wants “those kinds” of pictures….mwahahahahahahaaha ahhhh, NYQUIL kicking in…..
How’s that saying go? Don’t count your chickens before DPK sings…something like that.
James – you should see the pics she sends me! OMG!
Homes ~ That’s where me and pops ended up. Traffic jam at the H-1/2 split east, traffic backed to Uka Blvd on the 2. Finally bailed and went home. Not word it.
Oh well, get to watch GA get their A$$ wiped by a 2nd rate WAC team.
Pops is bummed, he wanted to test his throwing accuracy to the barrel. I have trouble just walking to the barrel and dropping the ball in! Bwhahahaha!
unko! Almost 3:45…gotta bag soon.
Wha Hoppen?…You guys scare Gigi off the blog, or did she go wash clothes?
Whoa! WAC team just blasted a solo homer, in the top of 9, adding insult to injury.
Darn…6-1…
Kekoa – she probably had to deliver her books to someplace.
Remember… All the special guest are part of the count too…
Tsaiko’s was awarded 125 tickets, but Stretch might ‘fumble’ and give some back?
Yikes! I make papaya!… it’s 6-1 WAC now going to the top of 9. Too busy talking on the phone, one finger typing and not paying much attention to TV…obviously.
Hard to cheer for Fresno, but willing to support the WAC.
Would like to hear some of those Georgia fans now! They weren’t very gracious as we were walking back from the Sugar Bowl to Bourbon Street. Some of those fans were talking a whole bunch of “unko.” Luckily we walked with some very nice Georgia people who commented that the older fans weren’t like that.
GO WAC!!
Boo…the GA Bulldogs are on the board.
Leahey & Leahey was on this morning???
UH played Fresno St. here. We won the first 2 games but lost the lead in the 3rd game & lost the 4th game.
GO WAC!
We need to get permission to open the entire center, the snack bars, the Rainbowtique, and of course bring in the Rainbow Dancers. Betcha Hubby would stay late then!
Hiya Rob25! ~ Me, Liz, Rich & Ronnie had a similar experience on the way out of the Supah Dome. Most GA Rednecks were quiet as they slipped past us, and then started to talk LOUD aftah they were out of slippah range! They’re soooo lucky we didn’t unleash Ronnie. She was not a very happy camper at the time. Liz was trying to “shake hand make a friend.” She actually won over more fans that way.
Going camping this weekend. I think that I am going to go through withdrawls from the blog!
It’s hard not being connected. What will I do in Vegas? Don’t want to pay the high internet fees at the Golden Nugget. Unless…i win the Megabucks!
kekoa…what??? The Rainbow Dancers won’t be there??? Jason will be mighty disappointed……
Hi Kekoa…
Yeah, we were by some very nice people, but there were these young college age fans (early 20’s) and they were saying all kinds of stupid “unko” things to us Hawaii fans. We just held our heads high and made conversation with those fans from Georgia that were gracious winners. Congratulated them on the win. They just loved the fans that they had met from Hawaii.
One guy was yelling, “If I was from Hawaii, I’d live in a volcanoe…”
Well the next time that he started that…I told him loudly that if he was from Hawaii, he would be much nicer. The mature Georgia fans agreed and other Hawaii fans cheered my response. I didn’t want to disrespect them, just wanted them to know the difference between us and them.
I can just see Ronnie’s blood boiling now!
One strike left for Fresno and they will represent for the WAC!
Ball four…that was a choke!
WOO HOO FRESNO WINS!!!!!!!
Rob25 ~ Sit in a Starbucks and ride their signal. That’s what we did in the Marriot at NOLA. Find out from the desk.
WAC TEAM WINS IT ALL!
WAC RULES!
CONGRATULATIONS to Fresno State!
Way to represent the WAC!
Truly AMAZING run through the regionals, super regionals & the CWS!
Congrats to the Bulldogs. (see, I was right!)
congrats to Fresno.
i can’t believe i just said that.
just this once. thats it.
WAC team wins a NC.
Sounds good, eh?
Well looky here. A lil ole WAC team beats beats an SEC power for the national collegiate baseball title. See what happens when you have a play off system instead of “B”ull “C”rap “S”ystem? Good job Fresno! 😆
Rob25 ~ Did she tell ya ’bout the Red Neck Bar she went into armed with nothing except her Portagee mout? 10 minutes later they were begging her to leave!…“and take your cheesburgers with ya!”
Amazing. Who would’ve thought that Fresno State would win the CWS.
We don’t need no stinking Rainbow Dancers, as long as UHfan808 and midori7 are there. Oh, and gigi.
whoa….busy day here.
i can’t believe the unko discussions and why was the number one answer, survey says, bing….unkohead omitted.
i can;t believe, well actually i guess that gigi never went ot point after, beef n grog, spats, and other clubs of the day where standing, carousing, and playing “pick up” was the cool thing to do.
midori7…..i can’t believe you never met young billy stutzmann at all of the tailgates at richardson. i think he was there at least three times with brother and dad.
Fresno who?…how soon we forget!
al,
How true. I think that’s a crock of unko midori7 is servin’ up!
Al ~ The controversey over the contest this morning should not have happened. I was never entered in it AT ALL. I merely answered a question WDoc had about Bowling Lanes being closed and the next thing you know, I win $1.5 million large!
yay fresno yay… 🙄
jason….no.
muumuu’s don’t show enough leg.
It’s hard not being connected. What will I do in Vegas? Don’t want to pay the high internet fees at the Golden Nugget. Unless…i win the Megabucks!
woooo hoooo, then Rob treating everybody Blog Bash, extra orders steak and poke!
Kazz,
Can I quote you on that on 10/3?
i believe about four kaimuki bulldogs ended up at san jose cc. so, them being at the clinic could explain it. also, a lot of polys go there.
it could be interesting.
i wonder if any san mateo cc guys come around too.
Wow. Somebody must have just hit MegaBucks recently; still in the $10M range
D1,
Only with the sarcasm. I’ll leave it at that. Like the saying goes, if no get anyting nice fo say no say nahting…..
not clinic, unofficial, unsupervised, unrecruitment workouts i meant.
billy’s been working out since he was very young.
kaz stevenson is one that i would like to see at those workouts.
you can never have enough kids coming and getting jazzed by the workouts at manoa. that is how dreams are built.
someone should pick up the 12 year old koehler and unbring him to the unofficial, unsupervised, not a recruiting tool workouts.
i think we are already for some real warrior football to get a rolling. that way we won’t be picking on each other.
Don’t get me wrong that in itself does sound good, but it does leave room for interpretation.
i think the bank broke sometime in may.
gee, i spent a lot on megabucks the year it climbed to 37 mil. i hope that kid still has some left.
cya later….i have to rest up for the muu call at tiffany’s.
funny, i run into old time aquaintance mel cabang at the airport. he’s doing a gig tonight where i am staying. maybe i’ll check him out.
does he still have that spotlight??
al,
Maybe he get one searchlight now…
heheheh
Remember Mel’s “Fighting Cock” – awesome!
Aloja everybody,
Looking forward to the bash of the year. This is our birthday bash, they call it tsaiko bash. Looking forward to seeing the Ed Wong room packed for a night of good fun.
g-nalo
I could have sworn that I read you were treating me…megabucks or not!
It’s official: The Princess, Faye, Liane and Kortney are coming to the party.
hoo and how you like them dawgs. I mean Bulldogs. Wait there both Bulldogs. How you like them Fresno State Bulldogs. You will never hear me say that again but for today I say congrats to Fresno State for job well done and for representing the WAC in winning the National Championship.
kama krab: You can e-mail me, jnagaoka (at) hawaii.rr.com? I have a question for you.
hey st
what about cat?
no verbal yet.
i think she’s pulling a Daniel Smith on us.
eh Jason just shot you over on email. What ever question you get I can help you with.
Not a Fresno fan but I am a WAC fan. Way to go Fresno and the WAC!
OK, when UH goes to the Sugar Bowl, everyone is like: Yea, for the little guy.
When Fresno State wins the World Series, I don’t see people relating it to the WAC.
How come?
Its more common for smaller schools to do well in baseball compared to football. Didnt Rice win the title a few years back?
okay…. i can;t say that i am the least bit surprised that fresno state pulled it off.’
fresno state always seems to win the big ones., the upsets in football, basketball, you name it. they come to play with an attitude and a chip on their shoulders. i often wished that we would play with that very same swagger.
…nuff said
Good to see Fresno St. won and have there Bulldog taking a unko on the other Bulldogs. Kay it’s over now so both you Unko’s get back in the doghouse!
hip hip hooray FSU.
ST – What about the pet lady blogger?
JDawg is a Georgia fan and one of our friends from Atlanta, Georgia. Welcome back to the blog for a new season!
Hello to ChinaDrew who posted at 0132 HST this morning. What city do you reside in? Errrr…you wouldn’t be VegasDrew relocated to China, would you?:?
Leslie?
Of course, we’re bringing Leslie.
Hey, are we only 15 days away?
14 days, 23 hours plus…
My meager memory is failing…who/which Kortney and Leslie?
😕
I’ve pictured Kortney a few times.
Yeah, it’s a victory for the WAC; thanks Al on the SJ CC guys; it’s nice that walk ons like Josh Andrews get encouragement and pub. Pics increase the effect significantly and the support for the entire team!
Bonar:
It was interesting to see Josh Andrews after practice. He attached a parachute to his body, then sprinted around the soccer field.
Kortney: http://warriorbeat.honadvblogs.com/2008/05/29/qb-challenge/
Leslie: http://islandtails.honadvblogs.com/
What happened to Liane? 😀
ST -I received the email from Liane and Kortney, am I supposed to send them info where to send payment or are you treating them??
ST: I hope Andrews does well. I realize sometimes walkons don’t get a fair shake and/or there’s an undercurrent of resentment on team that a walkon should not be on the team-otherwise he would have been recruited.
UHFan,
I think I’ll be there at the party. Ive just been threatened with bodily harm from Chawan coz i join the blog so Im not 100% sure. LOL.
Congrats to FSU. NOW WE GOTTA STEP IT UP!!!!!!
lakerj32 – speaking of bodily harm, if you don’t come to the blog party, i will damage your right foot!! wait, chawan might not like that, then you will use your left foot and beat him again.
Be sure to vote on the most eagerly awaited opener at the ESPN website – Hawaii – Florida is one of the options.

Can’t believe I never owned this movie until now…
BHF2 – please email me at tsaikoparty at yahoo. I received your payment from Koakane (minus $1 since he said he needed parking money) but I need the name of the other guy coming. Thanks,

be advised at today practice mr.studsman ❓ want to attend but was going to talk to bulla. sent him an email to contact him. not sure if studsman coming by himself or bring others. if you have bulla’s number call him.
Howzit Tsaikos.
LizK,
sent you mail this evening. sorry so late. 😀
Got to take my friend to practice this afternoon, after her Dr’s appt.
I got to look at the guyz and the facility up close, and this is my take.
1. Inoke was there 1 hour before everybody else, before 2. throwing to some BYU guyz. I really like Mr. Funaki. A class act. A leader. He’s acting like he’s the leader. GOOOOO INOKE!!!!!
2. there are some Warriors who are really working hard. Its obvious when you look at them, that they’re working out somewhere else too. cut, lean, mean.
3. the players know Florida is 66 dayz away, but some don’t impress me that they know they’re playing to win, if you know what i mean. translation: these are players I saw today who, if i were a betting man, i’d bet they are not going to start at Fla.
4. COACH RON, the JUGS machine you donated is not working properly. I suggested to the maintenance guy to get if fixed, and gave them my cel #. Lets get it fixed. Mike Washington was using it alot, before it got broke. There are 2, and both of them are out of action. we need the JUGS machines.
koakane-
check email.
I saw da mystery line backer up close. i like da vibes. no mo vibes, only da look. da bradda musta been working halawa high security long time. if he catch da QB or da runnah, somebody bettah call 911. i get da feelin he get one mean mootah. but i like see if he can catch da guy wit da ball. maybe in 66 days, wit da P90X an da runnin drillz, he get em. da bradda shuah get da look.
an we get some real respectful Warriors too. I like dat. 😀
g-nalo
I could have sworn that I read you were treating me…megabucks or not!
Rob25 – haaa, ok you caught me talking unko. ok my offer still stands for July 10th Blog Bash 2, must be present to win. 🙂
anybody know da Hill/Hillard(sp?) peeps who fix da JUGS machine????
I no can beleeve da JUGS machines stay broke an nobody wen call da Maytag machine repair peeps. no wondah da braddaz sometimes get prolems holdin onto da ballz. cannot blame it all on sometin else.
PROPER PRIOR PLANNING PREVENTS POOR PERFORMANCE.
GO WARRIORS!!!!!
My meager memory is failing…who/which Kortney and Leslie?
SteveM – speaking from experience, nothing a shot of neurogenesis can’t cure.
It’s official: The Princess, Faye, Liane and Kortney are coming to the party.
let the record show i signed up BEFORE i knew the Princess was attending. i’m ONLY attending for the five F’s, no way am i going JUST to see the Princess up close……no even! 🙂
you trying to justify your sukebeness??
bhf2 – what’s shaking? still in Honolulu?
btw – i met Hartwell Lee Loy JUNIOR while at the UH EONS ago, but unfortunately only a short time. think he grad Kam school and was one time AD at Kahuku?
you trying to justify your sukebeness?? hehe
unlike Al, not going to wait till 1:00 am to try be the first. 🙂
good night all!
Good evening to all…
Stretch: Sent envelope out to you on Tuesday.
Kazz: Not to burst your bubble but Rudy can be had at Walmart in the dig for it bin for $5.00. Bought that and 3 other DVDs for my other half as part of his father’s day package..He doesn’t watch football so I guess Rudy was for me!
James: What kind of bike/engine you’re working on?
What’s a JUGS machine?

Thanks Jason.
The NY Times wrote about the Warriors today. This part of the article could have used some fact-checking.
This part sounded okay to me though, as they looked past the superficial criticisms that other publications have had:
g-nalo blogging plenty tonight……………….way to go. kvillage close down? should have looked at blog earlier. pride was looking for wata inspecta patnah around 6 tonight.

Good evening friends!
Didn’t get a chance to say it earlier…DPK, the post you wrote last night was a masterpiece.! You Bulla and ? (forgot already) must have had quite a phone conversatioon. ❗ We need that one for the Tsaiko Book of Quotes that we’re going to publish in a couple of years. Leez see…project chair…DPK??? 😀
Marlis…you also put up an awesome post. I’m also a fan of Pat Hill. I admire the academic program he put in place to get marginal student-athletes to focus on getting their degrees…well…at least staying eligible.
Pauoa Boy…wen get chance, check out the North Island air terminal. Maybe make friends to get the inside track to fly your whole family space available to Hickam or Kaneohe MCS. Just a suggestion.
I have a lot of respect for Phil Steele, but, I’m have my doubts with his picking Boise to win the WAC. New QB and lots of new faces on the OL. If the new guys were Jr/Sr, I could believe that they were ready to step up. But, no. And the reserves are all newbies too. One or two injuries and they could be in serious trouble. I do understand that he places a lot of weight on both Hawaii and Fresno having to play in Boise this season.
BTW, congratulations to the champion Fresno baseball team for rep’ing the WAC. :O
test 😮 :O :0
It has been two weeks since the last update of the logistics/plans of the Tsai-kos attending the Florida opener. Any one have new info? The Florida game page is at:

Esme ~ Pls check your email for a very important notice from your Blog Bash stage manager. Due to the possibility of a Sell Out for the Blog Bash, please be prepared to give up your seat as you will be on stage most of the eve and won’t really need it. Oh and can I put you down for sweeping the hall when we’re done? Thank you dahling, you’re such a sweetie!
As for the JUGS, I have seen these and they are a simple design. A person with a little mechanical ability should be able to repair them for little cost. So the question is can some one who does not work for UH repair said machines? Or is this a no no??
Hey, looking at last years Blog Bash pics did anyone heads up the following:
-Rep. Takai
-Kinda Shy
-The Leahy’s
They going?
Pomai ~ …an outfit named “Mother Jugs & Speed” will do it for practically nothing!
(J/K of course my friend…howzit!)
Pomai, I just looked at their website for maintenance and it gives lots of info for proper operation and basic maintenance for the JUGS. Depending on what it is wrong may require someone with some electronics abilities also. I would like to know if they have some kind of maintenance contract set up or if it is an in house deal.
Liz ~ Check your email, I loaded the prelim prototype of the lei Diana sewed. She just started when I called you at nine, and finished it jez now! Not enough light in the room, but in the light of day it is kona look awesome!…Like the UNI’S!
Stretch ~ Need for you to be human courier to Kauai to take lei making materials to Liz. Call or email me to set a hook up time.
Rest of Lei making crew, I’ll try to get you folks started so we can put this project to rest early. Send me an email and give me a good time to get together with you. If you want to wait until next Wed, the 2nd of July, that’s still ok.
Wreck, give me call in the morning before 10 AM, thank you.
ST ~ Stretch needs to have an accurate an updated list of people you have invited as special guest and have paid for already. Do not include Pono Ma’a and Lisa Strand. I’ve already paid for them as my guests. Lisa says she wants to move out of the Volleyball booth, and to work fooball with Papa Leahey. Once she gets her football clinic completed, Pono is in trouble!
Just a quick post before nitenite time – the end of a very long day with reports, phone calls, faxes, and meetings. Alas, most of this will disappear come next Tuesday morning.
Picked up the specs and supporting paperwork for the Ching Field project – look for the Warrior H in a prominent place as that is one of the requirements. Will be going over the details tomorrow afternoon between meetings although I don’t expect much in the way of surprises. Submission deadline is 2:30 pm, Friday, July 11, the day after the Blog Bash.
Reserved two tables at the Hukilau seating 8-12 people for next Monday at 5 pm. The show starts at 6 pm. If you want to sit somewhere else or with someone else, please let me know by Sunday evening so the seats can be turned back to the management for other patrons.
PAUOA BOY:
You won it and it will stay on my desk – in the form of a gift certificate – until you return to O`ahu. If I am gone before that happens, I’ll leave it with Jason.
STRETCH: The check is in the mail, the check is the mail, hihothedairyo, the check is in the mail.
ROB25: Did Ronnie share any of her gift from DaDocs with you?
Another question: What do Rich/Margo/BG/Betty/the Eastman Family have in common. Another great prize to the winner. And, no, the above folks are not eligible to win and they aren’t going to tell you either.
Finally, what was the reason I asked the question answered by Pauoa Boy? Prize to be determined later.

Stretch
Sent my check in, should be there thursday or friday.
Aloha Kakahiaka!!!
Unko! :)) That blog thread had me ROTFLMAO. This blog is great laughter therapy.
Have a great day in Hawai’i nei!
BHF2, Thanks for the practice report. From all the reports, it does sound like Inoke is taking the leader’s role. Hope he starts.
g-nalo –

SteveM‘s website sure has a lot of great information! Some of that “Tsai-kos at the Warrior 2008 Away Games” information is off though…. 😀
8) 😯 😀 ~•~ Good Morning Tsaikos and Warrior Nation!!! ~•~ 😀 🙄 8)
Everyone have a “FSU wonder-dawgs” kind of day…. 😀
Stretch,
Sadly, I was referring to the weather and not the tables. It was way too hot, even at night, to let the kids play outside…and it isn’t great for them to not get outside play time where they can run around and play.
You know what was even colder than the tables? The pool at the Cal. Due to some problem with how they had the AC vent blasting cold air right at the pool, the pool was ice cold the first day we tried to go to the pool! That was a huge disappointment to our kids since they had been looking forward to going to the pool. It was also weird to have it be so cold that even my kids could not tolerate being in there for more than a minute.
The Cal fixed things sometime that day and the next time we tried the water was cold, but only really cold and not freezing. It was too cold for Lori to get in so I stayed in the pool to watch the kids and was the only one who had to freeze.
A-Joe, BHF2 –
BTW – $20 x 100 Tsaikos = $2k (or whatever formula and amount needed….)
Please find a legal way and collection method…. and count me in for a donation to the “Fix da Jugs plus One” Fund! 😀
Al,
I do not know how the NY Times made that mistake! I expect Dan to be up for some awards (at least All-Conference, maybe some mention for All-America) after this season, so I would hope that they learn the correct spelling soon.
Lots of coverage of Fresno State’s baseball championship. I’m glad that this will bring credibility to the WAC for years, and UH should benefit in the future.
I wonder if UH could sell seats like this at Aloha Stadium and make some extra money? There may be some room in the end zones…this would be a way to add some premium seating without any construction needed. And it will give additional seats for UH to sell for the games that are sell-outs.
Hi Garret! –
$1 bowling sounds great! At least the girls got to enjoy that! You sure have an understanding boss to let you visit w/ your family in LV…. (Lori sure is a wonderful boss….) Hope you had a terrific reunion w/ your folks, sister & family! 😀
Air Force is getting an indoor practice facility. It looks like the MWC is ahead of the WAC in this facility race. And it has a big impact on recruiting–check out the commits that TCU has, and how recruit after recruit cites the facilities…many credit their indoor facility for being one of the keys to their recruiting success.
UH doesn’t need an indoor facility as bad as many other schools, but getting the Ching Complex finished will give a huge recruiting boost. At least that will equalize some of the facility comparisons, as right now UH is at a handicap vs. other WAC and MWC schools (I’m not using BCS-conference schools as a comparison for facilities).
Hard to believe that an Alabama football player would sell cocaine in the parking lot of their football complex!
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
Just a quick update of the blog bash. Right now we have 90 people who emailed me with 19 of those paid and I have money/check in hand.. All others who sent checks, I will send confirmation emails when I get them.I also have a list of some guests who I am sure will come but have not emailed me yet. For those who are still thinking about coming but have not emailed me, please do so soon.
Kekoa – Re: Liz delivery, please give me a call today.
Hi brew! The $1 bowling was awesome and we are going to have to take the kids bowling every time we go to Vegas. Next time we’ll make sure to give enough time so Lori and I can go, and my parents want to go too.
The Lapahoehoe Class of 1954 reunion was awesome, and I really enjoyed talking with my Mom’s classmates again. I also had a great time with my sister’s family, it is especially nice to see her kids again and see how they are growing.
After all the work that I got done, my boss didn’t mind the time off. We submitted proposals to the National Science Foundation and the Army within a week, plus I wrote a paper to the MILCOM conference and a draft of a proposal for the Navy. That was like a month’s work in 7 days!
Good morning Tsaikos everywhere.
Long day yesterday. Same today. maybe go watch practice next Wed., depends.

Most experts will agree this is true.
Was that last comment supposed to make sense?
I am a Browns fan from Argentina. Very nice Browns information.
I am a big fan of Braylon Edwards and am disappointed that Winslow was traded.
I hope to be in Cleveland for a game this fall.
