(Big) body language
By Stephen Tsai
Linebacker Adam Leonard, who just returned from an NCAA leadership conference in Orlando, and quarterback Tyler Graunke make big body at today's unsupervised workouts:
* * *
Here's quarterback Shane Austin participating in passing drills despite having his right foot in a medical boot. (He suffered a fracture in his right foot on the final play of the Warrior Bowl):
* * *
Craig Bell, a junior-college transfer, prepares to run a pass route:
* * *
Bell and wideout Mike Tinoco:
* * *
Washington crosses the deltoids. ... OK, OK. I tried to go with the bad pun until the office folks told me I don't know where the deltoids are located. So, anyway, this is slotback Michael Washington striking a pose:
* * *
Greg McMackin said graduate assistant Brian Kajiyama will coordinate the football team's study program.
McMackin said Kajiyama "still has similar responsibilities as last year in helping us prepare for ball games."
Brian KajiyamaKajiyama who is in a wheel chair because of cerebral palsy, assisted in providing video and computer scouting reports. He also monitored the kickers' workouts.
McMackin added: "He and I have talked, and we're excited about what he's going to do this year."
UH is reopening the "Verizon Room," a computer lab that had been restricted in recent years. Kajiyama will help coordinate the study program in that room.
Kajiyama, who joined the UH coaching staff as a graduate assistant last year, has a master's degree.
* * *
We feel your pain.
it's June, and you have a jones for UH sports.
Here's how to get your fix this summer:
• Watch the unsupervised football workouts at 2 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Remember standing in those long autograph lines? Beat the rush. Future stars are available for autographs.
• Watch the "Rainbow Celebration," K5's Saturday night replays of the top UH sporting events of the past year. The best part for fans? Every airing has a happy ending.
• Attend NCAA Summer League basketball games. The competition is good, and there's always plenty of good seats.
• Sign up for the volleyball camp for adults, sponsored by the Warrior coaching staff and some players. At the end, you get an evaluation of your talents.
http://hawaiiathletics.com/Camp/campinfo.html?cid=156.
• NCAA Football '09 hits the stores July 15. Most interesting part of the game? Learning EA Sports' prediction for UH's starting quarterback.
• Know how everybody acts like a recruiting know-it-all?
Now you can be one. Attend the UH football camps this summer. Most of the state's top high school seniors will be there. You can see them go through drills. Then you can tell everybody how Manti Te‘o is the real deal.

ST good to see a follow up write up on BrianK after last night's unfounded rumor...quick action nips the rumor in the butt and I'm sure bonar feels bad after picking on a nice guy like brianK .
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:31 am
ST for those of us who haven't been to any of the practices, can you give us an idea of what kind of conditioning drills the team does? One thing is do they all(linemen included) run gasser's?
Back in the day when they used stone for the score board we would team up with 8 guys on a team, then four guys would be on the 40 and 4 on the goal line, the first guys on the goal line would run full steam to his team at the 40 tag his guy then that guy would run to the goal line tag his guy, and that would happen till all the guys ran the forty full speed, that would make up one set and we would do that for about 10 sets, then as the practices went on they move to the 50 then 60 and so on, that by the end of the season we where running hundred yard sprints, now do they do that now a days also?
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:27 am
Pomai,
no. they watch videos of men in da day. make poses.
bwahaaahaaaahaaaaaaaaaa.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:02 am

There is a cool Google Earth Plugin now available for Internet Browsers. Unfortunately for SteveM and others, it is only available for Windows computers now. With this, there are 30 or so college stadiums around the country where you can check out the stadium and 3D animation...and Aloha Stadium is one of those stadiums!
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:14 am
ST,
Thank you for all of the info on Brian K's new role. One good thing that came out of the stuff posted last night is that we got to know this info on Brian K!
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:18 am
Discussion of Miami's WRs of course mentioned Bess.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:19 am
an no foget da halftime, not goin get chance fo drive Shoney's Big Boy to get extra ice. An da hometown advantage, Warrior Nation get 5,000 btu, Florida get 100,000. An da AC and da ice maykah. Gotta study da game video ah da sideline akshun, not only da game akshun. An yu gotta study da field an da enemy, see if Florida side get hidden guudyz like AC units, or electrical hookups for dat kine stuff. Not nuff fo jus be macho, gotta be smaht tu. Da objek is fo be nashunal powah, an not tink how we cuddah beat Alabama a few yearz ago. i know we open USC in 2 years, but dis is now an our time iz now.
GO WARRIORS!!!!

Yo, BrianK,
howzit howzit. golly, da intrigue trap i wen fall into las nite ovah yu wuz moah exsightin da da intrigue in da book Shogun.
so wat, day wen dump yu as GA an UH wen hiyah yu as TA or sumtin? Nevah mine ansah dat, wuz raytorikal dat one. okay, okay, spill da beans BrianK.
heh heh
j/k yu no wat i wish fo dough. i wish yu success in yur job. i also wish yu stay on Tyler's butt. Make him a priority. No give him one eezy way out. Make him suffah like da ress ah us who wen get one UH degree.
he's wurt it.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:58 am
anybody keepin tabs on our incoming freshmen? which ones are steppin up now so we don't have to wait until the USC game to watch them get sizeable playing time? any ideas?
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:40 am
It would be great if Lelie went to Miami. He is obviously not getting the respect in SF. Glad Leonard Peters is getting some in Chicago.
We were talking about not having 2 RBs in Lee's offense but I forgot about having Pilares as a slotback. If they start rolling out from center, the reverse direction handoff to the SB could be interesting.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:59 am
morning NYUH, bighilo, Garret !
ST - thanks for the update on Brian and good luck with the mediations
NYUH - would be interesting to see Lelie in Miami although we have a lot of SF fans in Hawaii
bighilo - mahalo for the wake up calls as usual, i get nightmares thinking of gassers
Garret - i will need to check out the GE plugin
everyone have a safe and happy day
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:00 am
Since ST is starting up the BIO's again, for all those who have not read all the previous BIO's just click on the link (my name) and it will take you to a page that has all the past BIO's most with pictures of the person too!! Not all have pictures but am trying to get them up as we go.

Great Morning All.
Good Luck to BrianK in his expanded role.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:44 am
ST & Tsaiko Blog Dogs,
Good to hear that Brian will have a bigger role, especially in the academic aspects. The success of the sports program is ultimately tied to graduation and the pursuit of knowledge.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:48 am
Volleyball camp for adults sounds challenging.
Maybe bettah fo' Kekoa and Mrs. Kekoa set-up one Tsaiko Volleyball Camp fo' Tsaiko-challenged adults. Hoo, can feel da muscles all tight already.
Have a great week Tsaikos!
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:54 am
Volleyball camp would be OK since it's set up for different skill levels.
We're thinking of starting a writer's camp. Oh, wait, I meant writer's cramp.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:55 am
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
Re: Rainbow Celebrations.... I like happy endings!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:05 am
Not sure why it's not called Warrior Celebrations.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:22 am
d1, have you written your bio yet? No foget da pic of yourself!
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:24 am
Brian K is such an inspirational person. If we could all be like him, we would all be success stories.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:24 am
Happy Muunday gang-
Awesome to hear about Brian K's continue'd involvement, and being able to ramp UP with the facilities.
Though I will follow closely with SMU's progress this year, and hopefully get to watch a televised game, I'm not gonna Jones on June. I prefer to see our "Mac" unleash a Pataaack on the opponents. Awe man, sure gonna miss Jacob the Warrior this coming season.
St - very clever on the "June"saying,above.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:27 am
PLEASE PLEASE ! ! ! I HOPE EA SPORTS NCAA FOOTBALL 09 CHANGES OUR HELMET FROM SILVER BACK TO GREEN OR EVEN BLACK! PLEASE ! GOD WARRIOR MOTHER ! GRANT MY WISH !
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:32 am
howzit and morning everybody
adding my congrats and tsai of relief re: Brian's extended role
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:33 am
ST - what happened to the HA discussion/blog on the Sugar Bowl list?? It was on the front page of the HA website and now, no can find.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:38 am
Good Morning Tsaiko Villagers!
d1 - Volleyball cramp is more realistic at this stage for me and the Mrs. However, I know I could enlist my nephew Pono Ma'a to instruct the Tsaikettes, and his wife Lisa Strand for instructing the men of the Tsaiko Village. There's a possibility that volleyball might happen as a result!
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:47 am
ooops -
Meant "Jake" the Warrior. Beowulf will give me scoldings for saying Jacob.
btw, any sitings of Beowulf lately? the Patek ohana needs to be honored in this blog with jake's number

re: Silver Helmets
yeah, it was dumb that the x-box 360 version always made UH wear the silver helmets, even with the home unis.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:16 am
Our Quarterbacks: Funaki, Graunke, Alexander Rausch, Jantz, Austin. Are there any others I am missing.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:17 am
Not sure what happened with those discussions.
They actually don't consult with me on A-1 matters. Or other matters, to be honest.
For instance, if they wanted to know who went on the trip, I think me, Stretch and the A-Houses could have provided a list. We met everybody in NOLA.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:17 am
Will-i-am:
You're missing Jake Santos, Bryant Moniz, Kiran Kepo‘o and Bryce.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:20 am
ST - how come you only listed Bryce?? You didn't want to spell Kalauokaaea wrong??
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:21 am

oh....being 49er works for me.
Stretch - whats for lunch?
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:22 am
g-nalo - NOPE
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:26 am
adda so
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:27 am
Well you can always count on someone for asking, maybe me?
Everything I'm reading about BrianK seems to be a euphemisms. And even reading from the coach, "Brian has expanded role".
But the question, I ask, and maybe others: Is his status and title as "graduate
assistant" remain intact. Reading the little information I see, it's ambiguous if he's still a graduate assistant. Or delegated to volunteer assistant with a expanded role.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:31 am
Re: Brian K - if he has his master's degree, does that mean he graduated?? If so, he is not eligible to be a GA since they supposed to be enrolled in school. I guess he could take more classes but I think it would be more effective to have him do other stuff and bring in another GA. I don't think he needs the GA pay to survive since it is minimal already. I can't speak for him but I think he just wants to be around the team.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:41 am
brian is a ph.d. grad student.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:42 am
brian is still a student.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:45 am
Good AM Tsaikos: Thanks Garret for link in comment 18. The Google map is great. Only thing is the satellite map shows baseball configuration of the stadium which is no more. sjmacro
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:50 am
That's exactly right. I don't know the spelling off the top of my head, and I couldn't Google it while trying to post.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:00 am
Good morning gang...
Good to hear about Brian K. Mr. A-House and I were talking about Steele Jantz (Man what a cool name) yesterday. Looks like he may be a good prospect QB, especially since he is a Freshman and can grow into the role. Anyone know what his stats were in high school and what hs division in Cali did he play in?
GO WARRIORS!!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:01 am
gigi...d1 is making his bio just like yours....except he isn't talking about his muu muu....TMI....mwahahahahahahaha

have a great day everybody.
gotta go gotta goooooo....
james, stretch play nice
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:29 am
aloha kakahiaka kakou- busy morning-
great to learn of BrianK continuing on and I second what someone said about watching certain players who may encounter potential academic difficulties- better to nip in the bud early than later when it might be too late-
follow-up on AC - wow! Had no idea that he had donated $100,000 for scholarships at UH- I knew he donated a lot and I knew he donated for scholarships, but I am even more impressed with him now that I know the amount and already got a thank you note off to him- He is also the first spokesperson for the national "I Have a Dream" Foundation!
as for Tsaiko Volleyball...in my return to soccer I have advised teammates that I am no longer an offensive player and am, instead, a zone player (if the ball comes in my zone, I will get it- otherwise the 'guys' in front of me and in back of me will have to do so- that is why I switched to middle)...so, if we can play zone for V-Ball, then I am in!
Kekoa- how absolutely wonderful that Pono is your 'ohana- he was son's dorm advisor (with Ke'olu) advisor and we love him and Lisa- have wanted to send him a note to congratulate him for taking over...was it Admissions or Boarding?
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:39 am
gigi,
sent it yesterday.
no pic though. get plenny around already. maybe one of beau?
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:39 am
Again, great to hear that Brian will be sticking around.
Okay, want to know what I'm doing to pass the time? I told some of the guys at Nancy's — I'm going through old press releases, finding out information on every UH football player that has started in the past nine years. From there, I'm going to make a site where the Tsaikos can use this information to vote for a UH all-star team, which I will create in NCAA Football 08 (PS2).
(Stephen: I'd like to borrow some media guides, if I could. I need to get stats, and it's hard to get accurate stats for the older players.)
Speaking of video game football, ratings for QBs in Madden NFL 09 are out. Colt is a 73 OVR; 66 SPD; 55 AWR; 87 THP; 86 THA.
And if you didn't hear, UH will be a 77 OVR in NCAA Football 09; 75 OFF, 80 DEF. Here is a screenshot of the top players.
NYUH: I would disagree about Lelie in SF. Jim Hostler was an idiot who never deserved to be offensive coordinator, and although some people like Jerry Sullivan as a long-time WR coach, I'm not his biggest fan. I think Lelie's going to get a better shot this year, though, people have been talking about him. With the recent FA signings, however, he's going to have to earn playing time.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:46 am
ZOE!!! So cute!
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:50 am
I Believe,
I think many of the Tsaikos wouldn't mind being "zone" players as well. Although sometimes I've been told I can be quite "offensive"
btw, aren't Midfielders usually expected to cover the largest area of the pitch?
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:59 am
BTW...forgot to mention to Ralph...yeah, I'll be trying to coordinate away game viewings again this year. The first game will be a doozy as it will air around 630 - 730 a.m. from what I understand.....so, we either party the night before and stay up to watch the game or we have a breakfast game watching somewhere....still trying to figure that out.....
GO WARRIORS!!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:02 am
test
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:03 am
oh oh...koakane is at it again....all that testing isn't good for him...mwahahahahahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:04 am
d1...I would say if the Tsaikos played zone, we'd cover the entire length of the pitch....mwahahhahhhahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:05 am
Party at gigi's house?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:06 am
So Brian K. is back, bigger and better than before. Good news, dat.
al needs to post some pictures of his grand puppies on Leslie's blog. What a perfect place for them to debut.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:07 am
Pomai,
I tried to open the link to the bios but it seems like I need to register first because it asked for a password. Can you clue me in on how to get on?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:08 am
James - If I recall correctly, didn't Koakane offer his house for the Florida game?? Party his house Friday night and just stay up until game time??
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:09 am
I think I'm a little behind on the news...Did Bess make it on the Miami roster? No more cuts?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:10 am
Good morning anybody!
Stretch - I didn't see anything, did you?
Good news on Brian K.
Nice UH clothing on that dog. Is that dog a yapper? Somehow, I think all little dogs are yappers.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:10 am
Stretch..I think that's what we talked about on Saturday. Koakane wanted to do some "testing" of different kinds of liquids all night...and than have breakfast/cookout and watch the game....
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:12 am
homey...I'm not just anybody....mwahahahhaha
Jason...gigi's house?? Have you been there before??? ha ha
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:14 am
james and jason bwhaaaaaaaaaaa JJ like L&L any way did what you said in da test check it out.
james we need to coordinate so the away game maybe along with da twins. dat way we no over book. seen my email response

June 2nd, 2008 at 10:21 am
I was wayyyyyyyyyyy off camera....I think you get one picture of my hair at one point in the video....
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:22 am
Hoohiki: Still get plenty of time before the major cuts get made. Davone is still with Miami, but teams don't need to cut down to 53 players for a few months.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:23 am
hoohiki....Bess is still alive for now...but NFL teams haven't made all their cuts yet. That will take place more towards the fall when they have to trim their rosters.....
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:26 am
Hoohiki - This is only the beginning. There will be more cuts until the teams reach the final roster size.
I think for spring training the roster size is 80 signed players and when the season starts the roster gets trimmed to 53 and only 47 suits up for games. The others are on the practice squad. Anyone know for sure? I could be outdated with my thinking...which happens all the time.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:32 am
Stretch / James /Loa,
Heard from beau.
He said, "ROTFBMFAO"
Wacchu guys wen say on Leslie's blog?
Howzit homey.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:33 am
Sheesh! That's what I get when I don't refresh! Thanks Jason and James for the response.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:36 am
homey...if you use degree...only need to refresh once a day....bwaahhahahahahahahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:39 am
Since ST is starting up the BIO’s again, for all those who have not read all the previous BIO’s just click on the link (my name) and it will take you to a page that has all the past BIO’s most with pictures of the person too!! Not all have pictures but am trying to get them up as we go.
Pomai - was reading a few bio's and find it very interesting, mahalo for the link. my question is who writes the intro's?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:39 am
James - If you ask g-nalo, you only need to "refresh" once a week.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:40 am
koakane...
do you have a/c throughout the household?
are your floors constantly being cleaned by a roomba?
do you have beck's in the cooler?
what about nutri-system pupus?
will you provide pre-game and half-time bowling tournaments?
and more importantly do you have a 52" bravia tv???
if you have answered in the affirmative in all of the above or in fact have a one upmanship on the aforementioned then the party is at your place!!!!!
congratulations!!!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:40 am
My understanding of the roster restrictions is this: You can have 80 players on the active roster during the offseason. After the 3rd preseason week, the cut goes down to 65. After the fourth week, it goes down to 53 on the active roster. Of those 53, only 45 can be active on game day. One of the 8 inactive players can be designated as the emergency QB, who can come in only if QBs #1 and #2 are injured. In addition to the 53 roster players, you can have eight practice squad players.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:41 am
g-nalo - Where's the BIO's. Hey, doesn't BIO have another meaning?
James - Men yes, females gotta refresh more often.
beau(tilted) - I posted in Leslie's blog.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:42 am
Thanks Jason!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:45 am
homey...how often do femals refresh??? LMAO
Stretch - g-nalo only once a week? Dose country guys.....mwahahahahaha
al....that was a good one...ROTFLMAO
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:45 am
homey.....one of the BIO's is just a figment of one's imagination. that the BIO
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:45 am
al - I don't think koakane meets the Nutri-system pupu requirement.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:45 am
maybe that's why you don't know where they are...
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:47 am
hey i got cut off and sent prematurely.
".....that the BIO doesn't really exist and only in the sad mind of one so shallow."
well, that is what i wanted to say before i got prematurely ejected. (did that sound right?)
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:48 am
al - Bring It On?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:49 am

koakane....I never relinquished #1 status....LMAO
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:53 am
al....I could say so much about that.....but this is a family blog....mwahahahahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:53 am
James - If you ask g-nalo, you only need to “refresh” once a week.
no worry......got's plenty wind in Waimanalo.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:55 am
al out of those categories only three is close, bud select and bud light, but currently out of stock.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:56 am
d1- well, I guess I would rather be offensive than defensive...and I am sure that there are many who would not label you as offensive (when used THAT way)...as for middle...I think most coaches and players would agree that strongest players are positioned in middle...strikers, mid-field, and defense...but when I coached I would put my strongest offensive players as wings as it really takes a lot to know how far into corner you can go and still strike with any chance of ball going into net...and knowing when to drop ball back or cross for an inside striker to take over...many players, even those who are experienced enough to know better, will continue to try to strike from the corner when there is no chance in he-- of the ball EVER going in from that angle...and it gets irritating because it totally defeats all the work which just went into advancing the ball to be able to strike...
As for my choice of position in these later years....while it is true that the midfield covers a lot of field, since I am now to right or left,I can 'jog' (rather than run) cuz get 'hot to trot' people in front of me to drop back and pick up and get the 'diehards' who will clean up for me behind me...and lest you think I am being lazy, I used to be a hot to trot and then switched to diehard...so it's more a matter of acknowledging age and weight for now...but hope springs eternal...I may return to front one of these days...but not holding my breath since beloved husband tells me I am too old and too fat and have had too many knee surgeries to be playing at all- what support!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:57 am
koa.....figures you would be out of stock on a monday morning.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:58 am
koa.....u mean you have a blue muumuu?!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:58 am

June 2nd, 2008 at 11:00 am
yo james.....
what? are you off today?
haven't seen you around this much in a long time.
family blog? oh. we at the wrong place, bull.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:01 am
homey- I think all little dogs are yappers, too....maybe law of nature...we have one and it is not my most favorite pet (forgive me)...perhaps it has something to do with the saying, "His bark is bigger than his bite"...maybe for little dogs, it's a defense mechanism...to compensate for size...
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:01 am
Al - just read your bio this morning...................haaaaaaaaaa
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:02 am
i guess the janitor when rouse koakane. he needs to prepare himself for lunch recess i believe.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:02 am
al....taking break today....got some sniffles....but I think just allergy....
I know...haven't been around this much in like 6 months....mwahahahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:03 am

June 2nd, 2008 at 10:58 am
koa…..u mean you have a blue muumuu?! don't ruin it, I tried to fool everyone into thinking the video was gigi golfing. Now everyone will know it was koakane in the blue muumuu.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:05 am

don’t ruin it, I tried to fool everyone into thinking the video was gigi golfing. Now everyone will know it was koakane in the blue muumuu.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:05 am
Hoohiki I forgot to unblock the BIO section, I had it so that only registered users could get there, but I will go an unblock it in a few, so check back laters.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:07 am
g-nalo ST writes the intro, all I did was cut an paste and add the pictures.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:10 am
Hoohiki I forgot to unblock the BIO section, I had it so that only registered users could get there, but I will go an unblock it in a few, so check back laters.
i just went ahead and registered, hope its ok?
anyways, many of you have accomplished so much, experienced so much, and lived so much in your lives. very interesting...
btw - expected Homey's to be a lot longer but i'll assume you're just a very humble guy.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:13 am
I Believe - Is that why James barks all the time?
Just the other day this chihuahua comes charging from a house barking and growling as I was walking my dogs. It tried to nip at my dogs legs but my dogs just kept sniffing it and didn't retaliate back. I think my dogs knew that they could've killed that dog with a small kine bite.
The owner was all hysterical. She should teach her dog some control or one day that dog is going to yap at the wrong dog.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:14 am
g-nalo ST writes the intro, all I did was cut an paste and add the pictures.
thanks Pomai. i asked because was thinking it might be several people who contributed? no wonder ST is a writer, short and simple intro's but good stuff.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:20 am
Oh man that could be interpreted in one very interesting way.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:24 am
Homey - oops, you're right that didn't read so good.
but i'm sure you've accomplished a lot more in life growing up...............
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:24 am
Howzit, Good afternoon to all, time for eat lunch...
Jason - Tanks for the picture, appreciate it
Kekoa - Tanks for the hospitality at the Wesside CC, and wala'au about stuffs
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:29 am
Oh, so teasing my height now!
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:31 am
Hoohiki send me an email Pomai at tsaikos.com

Looking at the future UH football schedules with out of league opponents, who
(laughing to myself, and meaning no respect to the other team) would schedule Charleston Southern again-as noted 2011 ?
This past year it was a miserable game to watch. Even winning 66-10 the announcers were bemoaning the fact that we're playing such a lousy opponent. So the question is do we have to play them again?
Offering feedback for fill ins, I rather UH play teams like Wyoming, Colorado St., TCU, Vanderbilt, Utah, UTEP, Troy, UCF, BYU, Rutgers...almost any other team than CS.
Please no Charleston Southern again.
Looking at 2012-2015 it looks like BYU has Boise State scheduled for these years.

marlis - it was probably an agreement made to CS since they gladly accepted to play Hawaii as a late replacement. They made a lot of money playing the Warriors. Maybe they will be paid off if UH can schedule another D1 opponent.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:43 am
homey
i know what your saying, but if I could italicize the wording of "who" would do such a thing it would make for further laughter.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:47 am
marlis -
We all know WHO it is! 
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:51 am
howzit gang!
homey - was thinking the same thing on 135. you get some mean poodles eh
g-nalo - give up already, lol
d1 - in my case gotta add one more F to fao, so how you like da tilt?
james - one shot of CR may help the sniffles
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:56 am
ST,
Musicians are regular night creatures. I for one ain't a morning person. If I can get away with it I wake at 12 or later.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:58 am
stretch would know cause in the other picture there he was the tall guy, with cap on, burmuda short hitting the ball sideways about 9 feet.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:59 am
sneaking away again
al not da janitor but the SASA's
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:00 pm
homey,
Maybe g'nalo WASN'T talking about your height. haha
Loa,
Tilt's OK. This was the first time I ventured into anything other than a basic cell phone so really wasn't too sure about what I was looking for. As I said b4, I like the QWERTY keyboard but the connection speed leaves much to be desired
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:00 pm
Loa - How's that saying go? Something like "...dogs are a reflection of their owner.."
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:09 pm
homey - i heard that one too, as why i cannot picture you as one poodle
d1 - i thought i read that the connection speed was supposed to be best, 3g? (whateva that means)
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:11 pm
Koakane ~ I stop insiie da Tsaiko playhouse for lunch wit you my EIS pahtah, and here you are taking center stage with a stand-up comedy routine about Stretch's golfing prowress. Den you goin' exit stage leff telling us to "play nice."
We need football season to start now!...right now!
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:12 pm
Loa,
As best as I can figgah, 3G is one fastah phone line; not like one hi-speed internet.
Maybe one of our Tech-savvy Tsaikos can fill us in?
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Hmmm...
looks like the Name field stays the same even when you jump between Tabs.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Nope.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:18 pm
homey,
No wonder my dogs look at me with such disdain; they keep hoping I'll upgrade!
They must realize that the slope is not going in their favor.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Glad to hear that Brian K. is going to work with the students in the lab. I was wondering if that computer lab was open & running.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:21 pm
good one stretch.....good one. i was wondering why her legs was so hairy!!!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:22 pm
geeee......nalo.
you didn't have to laugh at my bio. just hurt my feelings lil dat.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Can someone give me Brain K.'s email address? I'm not too smart to figure out how to contact him on his website. Actually, I forget how to get to the website.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:24 pm
james.....
if you not feeling good, well, today you can't blame it on the vog.
hmmmm. anyway, you need to run down to choe's and slurp some sun dubu, the infamous bubblin' tofu soup. bugga works wonders for the cold like symptons. and if you run into your boss just tell the doc said it was good for you. you know, medicinal purposes.
probably some karaoke would soothe your sore throat, too.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:26 pm
i wonder if the "verizon" room is now called the "hawaiian telcom" room?
hey jojo - why don't you leave your email addy here then someone can forward it on? just joking!
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:27 pm
in your mail box jojo.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:28 pm
jojo
....and while you at it you can send me an email too.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:35 pm
g-nalo - give up already, lol
Loa - very good advice, i should know better.
geeee……nalo.
you didn’t have to laugh at my bio. just hurt my feelings lil dat.
Al - not laughing at you trust me. many here have done quite a bit in life and know how to live, you're a good example.
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:45 pm
whoa.
g-nalo
i wasn't fishing for a compliment.
i find that there are many really great people who are tsaikos.
i spend more time with my tsaiko friends than my old friends.
ain't that something?
i hope all the new tsaiko's join us at the tailgates this year. last year, the tailgates organized by bg and kazz reached over fifty. i am guessing it will double this year to say the least.
we will have the largest tailgate gathering of all the warrior hopeful with the greatest diversity of food, friends, family, and football.
and the best part is that it is but, three months away.
...nuff said
June 2nd, 2008 at 12:54 pm

June 2nd, 2008 at 1:00 pm

June 2nd, 2008 at 1:57 pm
Stretch:
I dunno. It's awfully hot out there.
Wow.
Suddenly I'm a 99-year-old Korean woman with a big TV.
June 2nd, 2008 at 1:58 pm
ST....you have a muu muu???
June 2nd, 2008 at 1:59 pm

We often don't get a breeze cause our house is surrounded on 3 sides by houses that tower over ours due to elevation.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:05 pm
A friend is thinking of starting a blog on the HA site. She suggested I do the same. But I sort of like Wordpress.com so probably won't.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:05 pm
Awright BrianK! If he decides to stick with football after getting his Ph.D., I can see him being an assistant coach before long. And I can't wait to see his impact on the Mean Green Kicking/Punting Machine™ this season.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:09 pm
g-nalo which day you choose for twins pau hana?
Koakane - eh howzit btw..........ahh for this weekend no can make "Tsaiko", big chore to take of.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:13 pm
gnalo...where is this chore taking place.....lmao
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:13 pm
eh, anyone seen hiflyer on at all....I have to ask him a question....
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:16 pm
James - start playing music and he will show up
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:17 pm
g-nalo said BIG chore, it can't be what you thinking....
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:24 pm
ok. i think i'm going.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:27 pm
gee ST - thanks for the heads up. what time they going pau??
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:30 pm
stretch...but no more mic.... and what kind of big chore are you thinking about??? I was thinking like yardwork...or spring cleaning of the garage...
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:30 pm
bhf2- I just heard from Kymry. She is all set with her tickets. They are going to the Oregon State game too
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:37 pm
stretch…but no more mic…. and what kind of big chore are you thinking about??? I was thinking like yardwork…or spring cleaning of the garage…
thats pretty close James and thats why you're not the Instigator.
but hmmmmm............spring cleaning my garage, hey thats a good metaphor for another time. hehe
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:37 pm
For those that are going to Genjis on June 19th, keep in mind that if there's a game seven in the NBA finals expect (?) an overflow crowd there
Gm. 7: *Thursday, June 19 (8:30 p.m. ET) - LAL at BOS
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:40 pm
marlis - i guess the party has to start earlier!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:41 pm
g-nalo & james - on top of spring cleaning of the garage, you have to check the plumbing once in a while to make sure everything still flows
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:42 pm
or better yet hope Boston romps GO BOSTON
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Would be nice to see Kevin Garnett hoist the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:57 pm
yay, I want Celtics to win!
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Tired of dat womanizer! Kobe something -- wats his name? Never mind.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:07 pm
gigi - I don't think Kobe will be bothering you. You're safe.
BTW, how did your golf practice session go? Hitting those 200 yard drives yet?
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:12 pm
homey, I think the clubs my uncle gave me are too long for me. I find myself gripping them down the handle far from the top of the shaft. However, I managed to hit a few high in the air and far. Usually, the ball flies low to the ground and bounces.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:12 pm
homey...I think those are 200 yard puts....mwahahahahha...but I shouldn't talk, I don't play golf except for miniature kine...
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Hubby said PCC does not have 3 par courses. So we might use the one in Bayview. Hawaii Kai is too far.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:13 pm
gigi...how far down the shaft are you grabbing???? mwahahahaha
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:20 pm
huh?
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:23 pm
James . . .
You beat me to it.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:25 pm
gigi - They probably are too long for you. If anything, just practice using the higher numbered clubs. Don't forget to practice hitting the ball from a sand trap. Also, there are different rules when hitting the ball from a sand trap.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:25 pm
hope I never get stuck behind you on the course you hack.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:29 pm
wafan...I'm surprised homey didn't say anything....
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:30 pm
stretch, g-nalo and james mmmmm looks like a field trip to da next street ova from midori's working place.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:31 pm
koakane - when is this field trip?? you might see g-nalo down there
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:32 pm
koakane...I told you...I no go on dat kine field trip......;-)
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:33 pm
James - I have no idea what you are talking about. I haven't said anything with innuendos all day!
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:35 pm
homey....ROTFLMFAO.....
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:39 pm
james you so evil so the above link is for you. enjoy
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:41 pm
ST must be snapping away with his infamous digital camera.
ST - How many players usually show up for these unsupervised workouts?
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:41 pm
koakane...that video takes on a whole new meaning after discovering what chuck berry used to film....in bathrooms.....EWWWWWWW
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:43 pm
homey...from what I understand, a pretty good number of players show up for these unsupervised workouts....that shows real dedication to getting bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter when playing the game....
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:46 pm
so did Stretch rush to the practice field when ST said he was on his way? lol
Hey, I hate to think what you guys talk about when you are all drunk.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:49 pm
James - Thanks, I didn't want to go down there and only a few guys show up and I would have to join them and throw them some passes so they can perfect their routes.
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:51 pm
gigi - We talk about the same things here as when we are drinking...we talk about you!
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:53 pm
gigi - no I didn't go to the field, it would have taken about 30 minutes for me to get there.
BTW - I can't tell you what we talk about when we're drunk since I don't remember...
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:55 pm
gigi...Me neither....I don't drink....
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:58 pm
haha not true, james
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:58 pm
Stretch - You working out of the main office? The one that is located in the boonies?
June 2nd, 2008 at 3:59 pm
homey - boonies?? NO Wessai is boonies.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:01 pm

June 2nd, 2008 at 4:15 pm

June 2nd, 2008 at 4:16 pm

June 2nd, 2008 at 4:22 pm

Stretch...why when she has hubby.....
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:43 pm
my ex-boyfriend a long time ago wore a fur coat while running the Honolulu Marathon. Crazy guy. But he didn't collapse and did finish the run.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:46 pm
gigi - stop avoiding, you not answering the question.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:48 pm
How do you guys post into the future? It's only 4:29 and #262 says 4:46.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:50 pm
Gigi:
Wore a fur coat a long time ago?
Neanderthals were furry, it wasn't a coat.
*snickers*
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:50 pm
rabid... I think you are caught in the past. You must have overslept one day and time passed you by.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:50 pm
now, Stretch, why at my advanced age would I be interested in Craig Bell's body? The answer is NO. ha!
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:52 pm
Rabid, you might be right. My ex was a Neanderthal, all right. What a creep.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:53 pm
OK, true confessions are over. Gotta do some work.
bye!
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:55 pm
gigi - things were just getting interesting... where you going?? now we will have to discuss you going out with a neanderthal without you.
June 2nd, 2008 at 4:56 pm
ST - how many guys were out there today??
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:02 pm
any word yet on the status of Francis Maka?
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:05 pm
At the end, there were 22 (offensive) skill guys. The defensive guys just came to visit.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Chad Owens is playing right now on ESPN2 for the Arena Football League's Chicago Crush.
He already has a TD catch and a 30 yard kickoff return (which is a lot in the AFL).
too bad their qb isn't so good. not very accurate.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:30 pm
chad owens with another TD catch. this one was one handed over the shoulder.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:39 pm
oh wait, he plays for the Colorado Crush.
i miss orange crush. and no, not the denver broncos d-line. don't know why they don't sell that soda here in the islands anymore. i've seen it on the mainland. same thing with RC cola.
chad with another nice KO return, tried to lateral it to a teammate who had stone hands who fumbled it, but chad was able to recover.
the announcers called him Mr. Excitement.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:41 pm
wow, i scared everyone away. did i fart?
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:50 pm
these announcers love chad. they said he could have the "devon" (as in hester) factor, and would make opposing teams kick away from him.
also, chad still got his moves. juked the shoes out of one defender.
and they just showed some of his UH highlights and his records for KO & punt TD returns.
June 2nd, 2008 at 5:51 pm
Mr. Tsai . . .
" . . . Body Language" HA!
Instantly reminded me of Ursula from the Little Mermaid when she sings her song.
And, GG . . .
Wow, Neanderthal? Good thing you discovered razors!
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:19 pm
chawan....quit farting.

June 2nd, 2008 at 6:40 pm
ST,
Thank you for the practice photos! I am very, very sorry to hear about how we may not get videos from the Princess for a long time due to the negotiations, but at least we get photos. I wish I could make it out to practice to see the players in person.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:43 pm
Happy Birthday Faith! We had an awesome party with about 20 kids and 22 adults, made up from the kids from her preschool class and our close friends in San Diego. Having everyone there for her birthday made her so happy...it was worth all of the work that Lori and I put in for the party. Kudos to Lori who did most of the planning and work.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:43 pm
two more TDs for Chad!!!
one on a kickoff return,
one on another one handed catch.
the camera caught him shaka'ng and saying "I still got it!!!!!"
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:44 pm
Happy birthday Faith!
And wow, Chad Owens is having a great game. I miss him...
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:46 pm
The turnover for college football coaches is amazing! Coaches have to win right away or their jobs are in danger.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:47 pm
chawan_cut,
Thank you for the Chad Owens updates! He's having an awesome game, even better than his excellent level of play lately. He had great receiving and returning stats last week, but it sounds like this week is going even better due to the TDs.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:53 pm
JJ sure has bad luck with ADs. We know what he had at UH with HF and how he basically couldn't stand HF at the end. Well, he probably likes SMU's AD, who has done an amazing job at raising money and upgrading their facilities. However, now SMU's AD is on the short list of candidates for Notre Dame's AD spot.
Not only has SMU's AD done a great fundraising job and upgraded their coaches (the basketball coach hire was a very high-profile hire also), but he was the captain of Notre Dame's 1977 football team that won the National Championship. My guess is that he's gone if Notre Dame offers him the AD job...and then JJ will be a coach that isn't one of the guys that the new AD hired. And those types of coaches are typically put on a short leash.
I wonder if HF would apply for the SMU AD job if it opened up. And I *really* would like to hear JJ's "recommendation" for HF.
June 2nd, 2008 at 6:56 pm
JJ's recommendation: DON'T DO IT!!
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:05 pm
Back to work...my boss has been a real $%#@ lately. I worked until I had to pick up the birthday stuff and I worked late (past 1am, starting at 7am) the last 2 nights.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:10 pm
Anonymous: re #290.
Firstly, congrats to BrianK for his new assignment.
2nd. Yes, he should have a new job title. This opens up the GA
coaching spot so that a coach can be hired to help out on the field.
Due to the large number of players involved, help is needed in coaching
the DB's, or LB's, or the O-line.
Let's see how this plays out in the weeks ahead.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:16 pm
Happy Birthday Faith!
I hope you have lots of fun celebrating your birthday with all your friends.
One day you will be able to look back on all the wonderful things that your parents are doing for you to help you grow up to be a fine young woman who appreciates sports as much as your parents do.
Hau'oli la hanau!

Months ago, I bookmarked the Bios page on SteveM's website, but I can no longer access it. I was told to register, but when I did, it told me that the User Name is already taken.
What happens next? How does this get corrected. Mahalo for your help.
Followup to yesterday's post about Wahine Volleyball tix. Prices for individual games are evidently being reduced especially for weeknight games, but the details aren't yet available.
Is anyone interested in seeing if it would be possible to hold a Tsaiko-sponsored post-practice event for both the football and the volleyball teams sometime in mid-August on campus?
The first two steps would be to clear such activities with the coaches and the Compliance Guy.
If this is something you'd be interested in checking out, then please post your answer here. If more than two or three people respond, then perhaps we could talk about it at either the June 19 or July 10 event.
Off to another meeting.
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:51 pm
Doc -- I do not think your bookmark is for my website. My website Bio pages are at:

June 2nd, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Chad Owens is back !
Playing for the Colorado Crush in the Arena Football League, Chad Owens showed he still has it with a spectacular performance in front of a national audience on ESPN. He had over 300 all purpose yards, with five TDs. Two of those TDs were incredible one hand catches in the end zone, and another TD came on the opening kickoff of the second half.
Sporting a Mohawk and with his head fully tattooed in a tribal design, he was the star of the game. After one score the camera focused in on Chad who said, “See, I still got it”, and he does. Not only did he have a great game, but the commentators said only good thing about him. They talked about the University of Hawaii, they showed clips of him playing at Aloha Stadium, and they talked about his NCAA records. They even mentioned Timmy Chang.
It was the Chad Owens’ show. He returned every kickoff of the game, and was a starting receiver, and his name was mentioned every other play. Chad Owens is back, and he still got it!
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:57 pm
now why couldn't Chad play that way in the NFL?
June 2nd, 2008 at 7:59 pm
OK, now it works.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:28 pm
Sorry about the lousy Shane Austin photo. I haven't figured out the zoom lens yet.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:32 pm
ST - DOES your camera have a zoom lens??
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:39 pm
re: lens.
It probably does, I just haven't figured it out yet.
Then again, it's so hard to focus because ... the BIOS return tomorrow!
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:41 pm
For anyone going to the Oregon State football game, San Fran will be playing at Seattle Sunday afternoon. It isn't a real far drive from Portland so that is something that can be done. I think my friends and I might do it.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:42 pm
By the way, Mack, who apparently is a blog reader, said he likes what I'm "trying to do" with the pictures.
I think that's a compliment, no?
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:43 pm
St - ahh, yes, the BIO's!! Who's on tap for Thursday and Friday??
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:45 pm
ST - the pics are great, no matter if you don't know how to use the zoom.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:52 pm
ST, your photos are very good. Even your close-up food pix came out better than mine and I was using macro setting...
OK, don't ask...bottom line is you very well with your camera. Don't change it.
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:53 pm
Doc you registered with the site already so you just have to log in. If you still have problems email me pomai at tsaikos.com
June 2nd, 2008 at 8:58 pm
I have a surprise lined up for Thursday.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:15 pm
Short meeting, thank goodness, because the cold is still hanging in there. We volunteered someone who did not attend to chair a major fundraiser in late August so going to it turned out to be the right thing to do after all.
SteveM:
Sorry - I didn't know there were two sets of biosites. The one I was registered for but cannot access without Pomai's help is http://tsaikos.com/forum/index.php?name=Content&cid=3
Are your bios the same as on the above site? I don't remember ever providing any bio information to anyone on either site which is confirmed by a quick visit to yours.
Sorry for the confusion.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:20 pm
Seemed very hot today with the A/C down in my work building today. Came home tired and kept falling asleep in my chair. Still groggy, so I'll try to sleep early tonight.
Good night, everyone!
errr...unless I wake up in a few hours
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:23 pm
WassupDoc: Reposting this one more time for you:
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:36 pm
WassupDoc the BIO's are done here on the blog, then all I do is copy and paste them on the other site so that they are all in one spot, so that if people miss them on the blog they can always go to Tsaikos.com where they are all together.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:39 pm
Love to lurk...love the pictures. Don't change a thing ST.
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:41 pm
yeah! looking forward to reading more bios. The tsaikos are one interesting group of people with so much knowledge.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:01 pm

I'd be surprised if 82% of UH students even know they pay fees for a student-run newspaper. And considering how many are printed (and wasted), I doubt 82% of the students on campus are reading it.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:09 pm
I am really looking forward to d1shima's bio! I was lucky enough to briefly sit with him at a table during a Cattle Call, but I had to take care of my daughter so I didn't get a chance to talk with him and learn more about him.

The Olympics start in Beijing, China on August 8, 2008.
Some say the numbers-888 have a significance relating to the Bible (in Greek it means Jesus)
For the Chinese the number eight conveys good fortune
The Summer Olympics in Beijing are scheduled to open on 8/8/08 at 8:08:08 p.m
For the Hawaii athletes (from the 808) at the games, I hope these numbers prove auspicious
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:21 pm
JASON: Mahalo for the recommendation. This is the first time we've had serious problems with the ValueWeb people. The difference in cost between what we were paying in hosting fees to a Honolulu-based company and ValueWeb was over $100 A MONTH for the five sites and the e-mail service combined. It took about four months to convince everyone to switch, but up until last week we had no problems.
Still, will check out your recommendation.
POMAI:
Sent you an e-mail about 20 minutes ago.
LIZK: Since you've been on Kaua`i for so long, do you know anything about Taylor Camp? Picked up a flyer at the King Corn showing about the campus Summer Film Series. While you'll be gone, the Hawai`i Premiere of the film, "Taylor Camp" will be shown on August 31. Funny, I don't remember hearing much about TC - must have been a Hidden Treasure secret - but I was busy doing other things at the time.
However, the description of what the film covers makes it sound as if it is definitely going to be an exciting trip down Memory Lane for those who do remember.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:24 pm
Geez! Oooh da preshah!
All this build-up for the bios and, as Stephen says, I'm batting lead-off!
Well I hope I can get on board with a bloop single; Stephen wouldn't issue me a walk this time since he says, "you stood me up last time"
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:27 pm
Great pics Stephen!
Aren't deltoids those breath mints in the can?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:37 pm
I heard the beat writer for the Dolphins on Pops and Kanoa's show this morning.
He was relieved that someone was actually wanting to ask him about someone other than Jason Taylor and the Tuna and their relationship.
He was real positive about all the Hawaii players:
Samson Satele could end up with a long career their;
Reagan Mauia may be able to survive the parking lot incident (the guy seemed to kinda shine it off actually);
Davone Bess may be in a good spot because of the release of Tab Perry due to injury.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:37 pm
Yeah!! Time for d1's bio!
Lets give him an old fashioned Tsai-Ko cheer to get his blood boiling and fingers ready to type!

KITV going have a story on Chad Owens' Arena game exploits.
Thanks chawan for the heads-up.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:42 pm
Hey las vegas.
Has the higher cost of travel been affecting the tourist counts there?
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:46 pm
would be great if NFL or CFL scouts give Chad one more chance
note to Chad, get the Tacky Gloves or look for that last can of Stickum
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:51 pm
las vegas,
after watching his highlights, I no think he need stickum
coupla one-handed grabs- awesome!
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:53 pm
d1,
Yes it has, hotel occupancy and rates are below last year.
In Cali, gas is above 4 bucks and in LV I saw 3.99 today.
Normally in the summer we see a lot of tourists but not that much spending, this year seems the trend will continue
btw, posb big strike today at the MGM's upcoming City Center, 6 construction deaths so far, unions are getting fed up with the lax safety standards
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:57 pm
d1,
with Chad's height, NFL teams will look at him as a returner first and receiver second.
One handed grabs are good, but he's got to field those punts first.
June 2nd, 2008 at 10:58 pm
las vegas,
Sad to hear about the construction deaths. Unreal the way they work those projects seemingly 24/7 there. Big money involved. Leads to bad decisions sometimes.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:01 pm
True about the punts. Hopefully, he can get another shot and then keep his focus. Maybe he was too anxious to show 'em something the first time.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:07 pm
I just got around to opening the Speed and Quickness Sched.
Good idea to split up the skills and Big Man on different days. I don't know if they were anticipating the numbers last year. It was kinda overwhelming just trying to watch.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:08 pm
chawan,
Are you lurking?
Did you fart again?
Pretty lonely around here.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:26 pm
Now this is really neat, I have said for a long time there will come a day when they will be able to beam us anywhere we want to go. Just as long as they don't lose any parts of me along the way. LOL
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:30 pm

Trust me, what I submitted is not worth missing a good night's sleep in your bed.
Which I shall be doing as soon as my other computer is done processing my updated Project Grad video. (Yes bulla, there will be a copy for you)
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:41 pm
Chad Owens had a spectacular game today, but....it's Arena Football. Hard to get too excited about it. Nonetheless, I am a big fan of his and just wish he gets another chance at the NFL. I keep believing he could.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:43 pm
Well the sun isn't up yet so I guess I will try to get another 40 winks well maybe 60.
June 2nd, 2008 at 11:43 pm

Funny you should mention this, the State pays the USDA/APHIS about $128,000 every quarter for services at Maui County airports. No endangered species are safe from these people.

June 2nd, 2008 at 11:54 pm

With a few key changes about dates, times, and places...you'd have had this drama for your mama story in the bag!

Hiya!
Hugs to JaM and family, big Hugs to chawan_cut.
WassupDoc, Taylor Camp was out in Haena. I did not go there. I am too conservative. Howard Taylor (Elizabeth's brother) owned the land and it became a haven for the young and the restless (including some of his sister's kids). Kind of a Woodstock without the music.
JoAnn Yukimura hung out there, I think. Some of our friends hung out for awhile - like sweet soul John James - who passed away from ALS awhile back.
'k gotta do some work and hit the hay.
Nitey nite and sweet dreams, ka kou!
Dream of Stephen's pix and d1's bio
Hey Tyler! Way to take care of school business. Look forward to seeing you in action on the gridiron soon!!!

Not everybody is asleep - and actually posting at this time of early morning is the best way to get the new blog up & running.
A quick comment on the season finale of Lost last week. The creators have already indicated that they're planning to end it all in two more seasons. I wonder if a faithful, devoted viewer who has just received a Final Diagnosis - maybe six or eight months left before shuffing off this mortal coil - could find out what the ending is going to be before he exits Stage Left.
I guess it's like asking who's going to win the NBA playoffs in 2010. It's a little too soon to tell.
Okay, where's Da New Blog?

Latest news from Gator Land: Interview with Urban Meyer talking about where his team is coming out of spring practice and how they are doing during the unsupervised workout period. Meyer reports he calls four or five players each night to see how they are doing.
June 3rd, 2008 at 3:12 am
More news from the Swamp: Their star wide receiver Harvin is on schedule to recover from surgery by the start of fall practice. News of a freshman defensive end shot in the shoulder three weeks ago and the possible return of an offensive lineman suspended from school after reaching a plea agreement on charges of battery and of firing a rifle over the head of somebody to "scare him during an altercation"
Seems to be a thug element to the Gator football culture. Earlier stories told about the player who stole the credit card of a coed who had died in a motorcycle accident and used it for three weeks.

Florida will open a brand new $28 million football facility in July built entirely with private donations. Boosters contributed $33 million to the University Athletic Association last year.
"The No. 1 reason is recruiting," Meyer said about the facility. "I felt like we were in the bottom half of the SEC with facilities, and like it or not, that's a big part of recruiting. That's one of the first questions asked."
BCS schools are on another planet. But we are living in Hawaii!!

Dang. It is pouring outside and we have a fire-drill today. I hope they use their two collective brain cells and cancel the drill for the day.
Good news about Chad Owens. Now all he has to do is produce like that in the NFL.

Watch out! Thieves are now targeting catalytic converters for the platinum. There has been a sudden rise in the last new weeks. They do not necessarily break into the vehicle; instead, they steal the converter from underneath whenever possible.

Howzit Loa,
I saw that comment from Garret about 3G. Hope it makes a diff.
Howzit Liz,
I heard a beat writer from Florida say that probably the fans not going be as hostile to Hawaii peeps as they would to other SEC teams' fans. But still, I think if I was going, "Down Low" would be the plan.
June 3rd, 2008 at 6:49 am
'morning Stretch.
After going back and reading some of the other bios, I'm even more intimidated about what I sent in. I found it hard to write about myself - at least, in a somewhat serious way.

Mostly that’ s because most people don’ t realize how many skills they do have. If you have office skills, for example, you may be able to find work as a virtual assistant. If you have transportation you might try mystery shopping , although it can.
