Aloha Kakahiaka!
December 29th, 2009 at 6:46 am
Howzit Tsaikos everywhere.
Malcome Lane, belated birthday wishes to you.
December 29th, 2009 at 6:46 am
Coach Wade- Are we going to see an international look on the team now or in the future? (I LOVED those days!)
Good luck this season!
December 29th, 2009 at 6:47 am
Jon Medeiros
thanks for being a Great Warrior. One a Warrior, always a Warrior.
December 29th, 2009 at 6:54 am
Good morning Tsaiko. J Medeiros, thanks for being a Warrior.

Good morning Tsai-kos!
Top 10!
Happy belated birthday to Malcolm Lane and Happy Birthday to Jameel and Michael.
Work now. hiho. whoooooooosh.
December 29th, 2009 at 7:22 am
Michael Carter is a stud. Toughest qb who ever played for UH.
December 29th, 2009 at 7:27 am
lava
i agree, he worked the offense well, but man that guy could take a beating....one of our best qb's to ever be a Warrior (with the offense they had at that time). as far as toughness, he was the toughest, hands down.
December 29th, 2009 at 7:29 am
Good morning all.
If ST has no recruiting news to share, what about Al?
December 29th, 2009 at 8:08 am
Good Morning Gangeez!
Good morning to you, Tom Mui, Esquire. How are you today?
Yep "Bootsy", as his runnin mate Travis Sims used to call him, was a superb athlete. Great memories of both.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:14 am
Brashton Satele should be able to start processing his appeal next week.
Why the delay?
The state imposed (paid) furloughs on state workers through the end of the year. There's nobody available to file his appeal.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:17 am
It will be an interesting competition between Lane and Taylor for both WR and KR.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:29 am
Happy birthday, Jameel!
Happy birthday, Michael Carter!
Aloha Kakahiaka, Tsaikos!
December 29th, 2009 at 8:31 am
re # 14.
The process should have been started BEFORE the furlough days.
This way of operating at the last minute must be typical of the way
the administration works (or doesn't work). JD - are you there ?
I sure hope for the best (and soon) for Brashton.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:38 am
Paid furlough, that's a nice gig!
where does one sign up?
December 29th, 2009 at 8:45 am
Michael Carter's son's name is Chase, as in Chase Michael Carter. Cute. He's married to kumu hula Maelia Lobenstein. Much aloha to their family.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:53 am
Howzit Nalani-
How was you guys' Christmas?
December 29th, 2009 at 8:58 am
Hi DPK. Christmas was nice. Needed a break after all our shows. Got all the shopping done and then enjoyed the holidays w the kids.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:01 am
DPK - when will we have another CC?
Should I ask you about the book?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:15 am
Michael Carter was from Long Beach Poly HS.
So was Hercules Satele and George Daily-Lyles. Too bad we just missed out on Tepa and McKay.
I hope we can keep that pipeline open.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:20 am
What kind of skills and qualifications do you need to get a "paid" furlough occupation?
Problem with Govt. is that they only know how to spend money.. not how to generate it.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:25 am
Question for Coach Wade:
Will you employ a similar Offense & strategies with the men's team as you did with the Wahine (but with more speed & power)?
OR
Will you use qualitatively different schemes & offensive sets?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:35 am
Hi Coach Wade:
Can't wait to see your 6'9" recruit this season.
With your 2 very tall recruits for 2010, do you plan to utilize their talents quickly or will they be a short "work-in-progress"?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Hey Techies!
what's with all these "pop-ups" posted 3 consecutive times within 1 minute?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:40 am
Tom-
The book is officially a movie project right now. All I can say is that things are going very very well. Thanks for asking.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:40 am
What's with the "Your comment is awaiting moderation." What does that mean? Who does the moderating? Can you see my #27?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:40 am
Good morning everyone!
...last work day of the year for me. BBL.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:41 am
Coach Wade:
What are your next "needs" for players/positions in 2010 and beyond?
Any exciting "local" prospect(s)?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:42 am
charlie
first off, welcome home. it must feel good.
it appears on paper that we finally have some size with umlauft and hunt on the outside. will the smurfs have a major role on our team this year, walker, strotman, tuaniga, and i guess dyer for example?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:45 am
charlie
how's the competition going between the middles: grgas, rawson, and lofy?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:46 am
lava and Bulla,
Totally agree with you gents that Michael Carter was far & away the toughest QB. Just think of what he could've done with healthy ribs. Thanks for the nostalgia! That '92 season & Bowl win were scintillating!
ST, re: "paid" furloughs
Were you talking about state workers up at UH?
As a DOE educator (also considered state workers), I wasn't paid for
for those 'furlough Fridays'. It amounted to an 8+% PAY CUT, making it much harder for me to pay the rent & make ends meet, so it wasn't a "sweet gig" for us. I just wondered if you were talking about some of the other unions other than HSTA? Wasn't aware of anyone with paid furloughs, though.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:48 am
charlie
after returning starting setter nejc, who has emerged as the all important backup setter?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:54 am
J-Dog on 23,
I'm with you on UH keeping that Long Beach Poly pipeline "flowing".
Let's also hope that the Blinn (college) / Texas 'well' doesn't go dry too!
December 29th, 2009 at 9:55 am
charlie
the men's game is typically one of power ball an almost too predictable one of going outside with an occasional middle attack.
what style of attack will you be implementing other than the atypical?
December 29th, 2009 at 9:57 am
charlie
how much emphasis is now being spent in the weight room, it seems that in the past our men were not so devoted to the room work?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:04 am
protector....i have been preaching that same thing.
i think we still have a shot at a wr from long beach poly and were in the hunt for a dlineman. although we may now have too many dline guys on the dock.
blinn cc was njcaa champ this year. we missed out on a lot of high end jc ballers some of whom could have helped in the defensive backfield.
we lost out on a navarro cc running back earlier this holiday season.
that's how it goes......i still say that we need to get a couple of corners this year.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:11 am
al:
like tommui, what's the scoops on the "local" football recruits?
we kow its the "dead period", but i believe being more active during this period via phone calls, tweets, email will let the commits and undecided recruits know that the Warrior coaches want them in their program.
no face-2-face; just go 3rd person, 2 dimensional, abstract, 3-D, etc.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:13 am
Question for Charlie.
Have you decided on a starting lineup? Is Jonas Umlauft going to hit on the right or left side?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:17 am
How is recruiting coming along?
Do you think Shane Popelka and Shane Welch can get playing time as freshmen?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:32 am
If ST cannot calculate the number of scholarships available, who is the next person in line with the "knows"?
Hope the receivers recruited 2 years ago can make a stronger contribution in their senior year - that will take the heat off the starters, allow the subs to tire the secondary, make receptions/TDs, show the defensive secondary a completely look, etc.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:33 am
Some coaches in the MPSF like John Speraw also coach boys club volleyball in the summer.
Do you plan on coaching boys club volleyball or getting involved with USA youth and junior national teams.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:39 am
Is Arik Metzger going to be able to play this season?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:44 am
ahouse....not sure what is coming down the pike. it appears that we may only have 5-7 scholies left.
however, where the greyshirts, transfers, fit in is a question mark. our compliance dept. needs to step it up a notch.
we would have to get creative thereafter, if we are going to take in more recruits than the aforementioned. ie more greyshirt recruits.
if you ask me....we still need
2-3 defensive backs
1 running back
1 mlb
1 big wr with 4.4 speed
we could always use an otackle or another colt brennan.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:45 am
ahouse...it appears that jovonte taylor will be the best of that lot.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:51 am
Thanks ST. Was just trying to negotiate a 'peace' settlement, but understand the underlying issues.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:01 am
A great nearly noon to everyone!
December 29th, 2009 at 11:02 am
Happy birthday to Dowling and Carter!
Whoo-hoo!!!
December 29th, 2009 at 11:23 am
So I guess that makes the rest of us mutts.
Bow-wow.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:25 am
charlie
i hope that you are not offended by my calling you by your first name since we have known each other since 1995.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:30 am
Shauna is panicking! 15 minutes to the Tsai and Wai show and only Al, Vballfan1, A House and Warriorbacker posted questions, 3 minutes worth of air time, come on Tsaikos, get up! Do people really watch men volleyball?
December 29th, 2009 at 11:32 am
Isn't it amazing that one who puts down others
goes about taking offense to his own style of sarcasm?
Isn't like "the pot calling the kettle black."?
December 29th, 2009 at 11:33 am
I know a lot of tsaikos will be at Kum Chee Restaurant consuming a lot of kalbi, etc.starting at noon. Shauna, you can blame Koakane for arranging today's lunch get together while the Tsai and Wai show is airing.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:39 am
Hi all,
It's a little more than 2 days to a brand new year. Wouldn't it be nice to start afresh and stop sniping at each other??? Pull in the claws guys...Can't we all just get along???
December 29th, 2009 at 11:42 am
Hi Coach
What is your prognosis for the upcoming year? Are we coming along nicely at this point?
December 29th, 2009 at 11:43 am
ralphie - was this a BIO event?
December 29th, 2009 at 11:45 am
Progress does not happen without conflict.
Conflict = Reveals some sort of need
Needs = demand
Demand drives progress.
We don't need violence.. but conflict can be good.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:46 am
Kaimuki Kid
Actually all was fine until Mr. Know-it-All started calling some of these folks poi-dogs.
Just when we were starting to like him, he gets all haimakamaka(sp?).
Perhaps it is the effects of the full moon that has his wolf pedigree up in a dander.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:59 am
hurt feelings - it must be BIO. It must be a secret meeting to talk stink about all of us who they don't agree with.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:00 pm
People with pedigree? What's that? Special Papers? Toilet trained.. I don't get it.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:03 pm
Coach,
Are there any plans to try and bring back the "good 'ol" days of crazy fans in the stands at men's vball games? When it was general seating, there'd be lines around the arena waiting to get into games. Now with the reserved seating for season ticket holders, the loud and energetic young audience gets relegated to the upper levels where their enthusiasm fades with each higher row.
Thanks!
December 29th, 2009 at 12:03 pm
roy.. is it okay to call you roy? or you prefer royvic?
shoot, with all this humbug, I forget what I was going ask you
December 29th, 2009 at 12:03 pm
Ai-Yah.. you are free to join them
I've been to a couple.. enjoyed them immensely.
My wife and I combined can only eat one half portion of what the hard core Tsaikos do, though. I end up feeling like I need to get my stomach pumped so I can keep up!
It's all good fun.. good company.. and any blogger/reader is welcome to join in. Just bring an empty stomach.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
MIH - I would attend but it's BIO, I don't know when or where these secret meetings are.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:17 pm
Not secret at all.. they announce em all the time on this blog and I think on SteveM's site.
Today's is at Kum Chee Restaurant ... they already started... but will probably be there for another hour or so.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
Ai-yah..
During the season.. one of the best fan tailgate parties you can go to is the Tsaiko's tailgate, too. Get there early and you can usually find parking using the password for the day. Go to http://home.roadrunner.com/~smurashi/tsai-kos/
for more information.
again that's...
http://home.roadrunner.com/~smurashi/tsai-kos/
December 29th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
Ai-Yah -- if you are serious about your post #70, please send me an email at: stevem.hnl (at) gmail.com with your name.
I do not know of all small gatherings but will relay your ernestness to the usual suspects and put you on any Tsai-ko event I might coordinate. Do you karaoke or cruise?
December 29th, 2009 at 12:32 pm
Where's Kum Chee Restaurant? I know there must be half a dozen Kim Chee restaurants on O`ahu, but this is a new one for me.
Must have been a BIO since nothing was posted here or on SteveM's webssite.
Also, there are two e-mail lists set up - one has everyone e-mail addresses who's responded to requests for money/pledges etc., and/or wants to be kept informed about T-Gates and other open-2-all blog parties; the other one is a much smaller list which has been set up for BIO events. I don't know who keeps the second list because I'm not on it.
According to someone who is on that list, folks who are on on it are requested to not refer to the events on the blog beforehand. As for afterwards, it's up to each attendee - or invitee - to decide whether to talk about the event.
BTW - I asked two inter-related questions of Coach Wade.. And yes, I agree with RoyVic - in public, we should be referring to all coaches by their title - Coach Wade or Coach Charlie - even if we have a long-standing relationship with them..
I know a lot of elected officials and several judges well enough to call them by their first names in an informal environment, but I would never call them by anything but their title and last name in public - including a blog.
For those of you wondering what a paid furlough is, the decision to shut down the university system during the last two weeks of December was to reduce operational costs outside of salaries & fringes. Every penny counts. It certainly reduces some of the expenses individual employees wind up paying such as transportation costs, meals, etc.
The furloughs are why I cannot get any answers about a T-Fund until next week.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
To repeat my #30: What's with the "Your comment is awaiting moderation." What does that mean? Who does the moderating? Can you see my #27 post? It's visible on my computer with the above comment but can anyone else see it?.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
w-doc - my question @ post 61 was specifically asked on your behalf (because after reading ralpie's post re the cc, i know you were going to make an issue out of it).
December 29th, 2009 at 12:48 pm
Temple kicking UCLA tail. 21-10 at the half.
December 29th, 2009 at 12:50 pm
Chawan_Cut:
Why not send an e-mail to Jim Donovan, Carl Clapp, and Rick Sheriff making the same argument. I'm not sure that coaches have much of a say in the decision-making process, but I'm sure that they would love to have several thousand screaming fans under the age of 50 cheering on the team. Be sure to point out to them that filled - and cheaper - lower seats mean more money spent at the concession stands & perhaps even at the Rainbowtique.
DrDoc and I could not buy seats together in the lower part of the Stan Sheriff Center for any of the court sports except women's basketball which is open seating. We wind up moving down to the lower level after a few minutes even though our current above-the-concourse seats are right in the middle if the overall attendance is kind of sparse. .
December 29th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
Is the show still on? Do we need more questions for Coach Wade? Streaming video is blocked at work, so I'm not sure what's going on...
December 29th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
Hurt Feelings - Thanks for thinking of me, but today is a major work day - started at 5 am and am just now taking a quick break before heading back work to wrap up end-of-year reports and other paperwork.
It's funny that you raised the issue because most of the time I never get around to reading the blog until 10 pm or thereabout. By then, I assume that the Cattle Call would be over.
December 29th, 2009 at 1:08 pm
Good Morning Ronnie... show is over.
December 29th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
64
YEAH RIGHT
December 29th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
kalbi?
December 29th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
I feel sorry for the fans watching the Temple-UCLA game over at RFK Stadium....well....not really.
20 mph winds resulting in a wind-chill factor of about 15 degrees. Some say that's great football weather, but I think otherwise. The UCLA players must be freezing out there!
December 29th, 2009 at 1:25 pm
Good Morning/Afternoon Stretch!
Thanks for the info. How was the show?
December 29th, 2009 at 1:49 pm
watching/listening to the live chat is somewhat painful.
seems to be cutting in and out every five seconds.
December 29th, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Ralph, Garret and Pomai, THANK YOU guys so much for your heartfelt words to Mother Sanchez memorial guest book. I was overwealm with so much joy to the heart of your kind words and adulation to my LEGACY of honoring a great mom, lady and humanitarian who cared for "EVERYBODY" !
Ralph, "Going Home" by Sissel Kyrkeebo was just plain "BEAUTIFUL" as I really appreciate you for allowing me to see this wonderful lady sing this deep farewell song as it really makes you feel her soprano voice of life after death.
You gentlemen are so KIND of your thoughts and words to my departed mom as I appreciate you GREATLY !
December 29th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
that was a great interview with Coach Charlie
December 29th, 2009 at 2:37 pm
Re: lunch
I think some people find it easier to argue online than in person.
Then again, some might suffer from euphobia.
December 29th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
...Or doxophobia.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:05 pm
Are we due for a storm????
December 29th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Sensei Tsai, us grasshoppers and fleas need to know how do we address you when posting????
December 29th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
since someone referred to us as sigmactenus hawaiiensis, guess that qualifies us as pedigree.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
Happy Birthday Michael Carter and Jameel Dowling
December 29th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
eh, whitey.
i am a more lucky than you sigmactenus.
at least i have three pedigree dogs to jump from one to another.
boing.
boing.
boing.
(and that's not counting the boss)
December 29th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
i think someone would know an answer to this question. if a foreign athlete at UH leaves school to be on their country's national team, how is their eligibility affected??
December 29th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
al, no count ahead because i get little meeceess in the house, but am glad their big relative no come inside. hooooo haaaaa
December 29th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
great interview charlie.
btw, i ran into our old crony, dave, on thursday evening. in the conversation he mentioned how excited he was for you.
looking forward to catching some of the matches this year.
good luck charlie.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
whoa, we getting a lesson on behavior by the same ars_______ who called us sigmactenus. he think he know it all, but no nuthing. now watch him cry and throw a tantrum!!!!
December 29th, 2009 at 3:31 pm
Your poor children.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:32 pm
i give him credit tho, he helped us go over the century mark.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
yo, whitey.
no worry the three sigmactenae going band together.
once a flea
always a flea
for we are
the three sigmatenus'
December 29th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
off to work now.
boing, boing, boing.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
and he make us laugh till almost fall down from chair. hahahahaaaaaa
December 29th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
al, dang, you one good writer. maybe nalani can convert that to music and make money for their group.
December 29th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
Woof.
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
December 29th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
ST,
missed you and missed the show, sorry. all is well, the love is flowing from Manoa, and that is a good sign. going through the hoops to make it a great 2010 for everyone.
at the UH basketball game last night, the opposition had some very 'wild' shoes....man they were bright!
December 29th, 2009 at 4:04 pm
Time to hit the reset button.
December 29th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
Tsephen Tsai sounds good...
But I like your last name best.
Get confused with Steve M...
December 29th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
(poof)
December 29th, 2009 at 4:20 pm
dang....everytime i see your posts these days i feel like i should have ran off to don quixote bakery.
i, too, love pecan pie.
maybe tomw.
December 29th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
pecan pie with premium vanilla ice cream.
December 29th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I wish you all luck as everyday lately almost pecan pie is not on the shelves. double dang...
btw, I agree with mih and pomai, putting a football player, healthy or otherwise,
into an electrical charged room is not someone
UH would be interested in.
But in "coach" Leach's defense, he probably did
not know about the danger of it and thought it was
a good idea---tho why take away something to sit on?
December 29th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
Remember the song.
"cry baby welcome back home..."
December 29th, 2009 at 4:51 pm
you mean there's no pie.
dang.
double dang.
guess i'll just go to the alley bakery then.
December 29th, 2009 at 4:54 pm
as my uncle rodney once said: can we all just get along
royvic - do you know my uncle?
December 29th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
uncle al - since your the chef-de-le-creme of the WB, i'm sure you could whip-up a scrumptious, earth-moving, mouth-watering tantalizing dish of pecan pie.
what do you think?
IF CAN, CAN!
December 29th, 2009 at 5:18 pm
You can tell it is dinner time...
OK, I googled a recipe for "easy" pecan pie:
Easy Pecan Pie
Ingredients -
1 (9-inch) One-Crust Pie Shell
2/3 cup Sugar
1/3 cup stick Margarine or Butter, melted
1 cup Corn Syrup
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3 Large Eggs
1 cup Pecan Halves or broken pecans
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare pastry
2. Beat sugar, margarine, corn syrup, salt and eggs in medium bowl with wire whisk or hand beater until well blended. Stir in pecans. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate.
3. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until center is set.
4. Eat.
You can also google "fudge chocolate" pecan pie...
December 29th, 2009 at 5:38 pm
I once brought a pecan pie to a football game and a friend got really mad. He said he hated pecan pie and called it cockroach pie.
December 29th, 2009 at 5:38 pm
Ah...
POEM:
The History of Sigmactenus
Adam
Had 'em
December 29th, 2009 at 5:45 pm
redzone - ROTFLMAO!
December 29th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
I was just trying to watch the replay of the Warrior Beat Show but it runs then freezes then runs then freezes. It looked like Charlie and the Princess were making funny faces everytime the vid froze. I gave up after a few minutes.
ST are they going to fix it?
December 29th, 2009 at 5:55 pm
#25 Wisconsin is pretty much shutting down #15 Miami. Just goes to show you how good Wisconsin's Defense is. If #15 Miami can't get more than 7 after three quarters and 13 minutes, it's no wonder this year's Warriors didn't do any better, either.
December 29th, 2009 at 5:56 pm
Just got home from our CC, for those who didn't make it, I will fill you in. The first 50% of the time was spent sampling the fine food, not much talking with one's mouth full. The next 10% was talking about how bad the MBB team was and what Coach Mack has to do to keep his job, the remainder of the time was spent telling Ralph how to fix his computer, the final decision was that Ralph needs to brake open his piggy bank and buy a new one. Sorry there was no discussion of anyone on the blog.

Miami will probably get a TD now in the waning minute as Wisconsin pretty much has this sealed up.
December 29th, 2009 at 5:59 pm
Hmm... Onside kick.. and maybe...1:26 left... Miami now 14... Wisconsin 20
December 29th, 2009 at 6:00 pm
OOops! Miami recovered the Onside kick!!! Got chance..

Miami's quarterback complained to his O line, and
then to his coaches, and they sort of fixed it and
that's when Miami began to protect their quarterback
better against the bad badgers. But...
December 29th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Red Zone,
maybe you got one cock roach in yur computir...
got to admit, pecans do look like roasted roaches a little...I heard you can eat them in a crunch (like if nothing else is around) if you roast them...
But as for the computer, I had that problem when I
just had el-cheapo $9 a month telephone hook up type, but licked it when I switched to road runner.
Beep-beep?
December 29th, 2009 at 6:47 pm
i have road runner, only the tv commercial goes beep beep, my computer goes, "eh, come back later", there are system resources issues so I got to shut down again.
December 29th, 2009 at 6:50 pm

December 29th, 2009 at 7:04 pm
Wisconsin will be ranked high next year...watch.
As was Notre Dame Florida and Georgia after their
seasons in which they clobbered Hawaii.
But never mind, Hawaii will be better prepared next
year...watch.
December 29th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
btw, the pro bowl in Miami will be before the Super bowl. So nobody from the two teams who make it to the top will play. How thilly ith that? Granted, most
are too bruised and already have a fat paycheck.
December 29th, 2009 at 7:23 pm
bad omen, USC wants a higher ranking, our Warriors better work hard this spring and not fulfill I Love Pecan Pie prophecy.

December 29th, 2009 at 7:58 pm
hurt feelings....i am not the dessert guy. i have been hinting to the boss as that is her expertise.
darn, i gotta go look for a pecan pie tomw. some whipped cream and some old fashioned vanilla.
don't you just miss the old white mountain creamery on kapahulu.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:15 pm
uncle al - i'm a banana cream pie kind-of-guy. is that in aunty's repertoire? if so, i'm coming over for new years.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:44 pm
slow night on the blog, talking about desserts.....hmmmm, still working on the pumpkin pie from christmas............before whip cream was really fun, now we just eat it ...............haha
December 29th, 2009 at 8:46 pm
I went to Ted's at the North Shore on Sunday.. had their eclair.. which is really a huge cream puff with real custard creme and whipped cream... Just had one and shared if with the wifey..... so good.. so filling.. should have bought one more to take home.
December 29th, 2009 at 8:56 pm
MIH one eclair, shared it, so filing- you are a tsaiko in progress, I've seen some tsaikettes eat a long john from Kauai right after eating a pot luck at the tailgate and a few were looking over the rest of the desserts.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:03 pm

mih,
howzit bro, hope you're wrapping up the year of 2009 nicely
December 29th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
al on # 149,
I remember trying the Rum Raisin at that White Mountain Creamery. Was that supposed to be how the old fashioned ice cream used to taste?
I kind of liked the flavors at Dave's Ice Cream that was a few blocks away (but also is long gone now), esp. the lychee sherbet (they were always generous with the amount of fruit).
December 29th, 2009 at 9:46 pm
Na Wahine wins. 54-53. Congratulations to Kanekoa in hitting the winning shot with less that 2 sec.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:51 pm
hurt feelings....not to hurt your feelings but the boss hasn't attempted a banana cream pie since it is not one of the house favorites.
but, her blueberry creamcheese cake, dump cake, red velvet cake, rum cake, butter mochi, and an array of other scrumtious goodies are among the best on the island. perhaps that explains the exanding midsection from year to year.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
Some are really funny, presuming to lecture others on courtesy, expectations, and standards of behavior. Personally, I do not mind being a mutt. Particularly when considering the alternative of being a presumptuous know-it-all with a pedigree.
So, ralvic/rolvic/royvic, that is the extent of my discussion since to go any further would be truly discourteous to the sensibilities and time of others. As you stated earlier, feel free to discuss – and I mean that in the most condescending voice imaginable.
December 29th, 2009 at 9:57 pm
Nytol!
December 29th, 2009 at 10:03 pm
No, nobody at UH or work ever makes me take down posts.
I took down an exchange of posts today because I embarrassed a reader, and that wasn't a cool thing to do.
I think the poster lacks tact and manners, and those flaws undermine some intelligent points (and posts).
I meet a lot of lurkers, from all walks — players, coaches, readers, Mainland residents, etc. — and most cite the readers whose posts are largely ignored because they just don't care for their personalities. And I'm not talking a handful of lurkers. I'm talking a lot.
The particular poster is well meaning, and I want him to contribute. But when his posts are inducing scorn and, worse, avoidance, I shouldn't be piling on. Love thy neighbor.
So I took it down as an olive branch. Then again, the gesture was interpreted another way.
Hey, what can I say?
I tried.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:03 pm
wafan - you on vacation! no need go nene so early! what you get fuuud coma from da cc today?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:04 pm
A really challenging Wahine basketball game this evening - they pulled it off in the last two seconds. and won by one. As usual, there were maybe as many as 400 fans including Mista Mayore wearing a green feather lei.
Was working so intensely today I didn't have time to get anything "real" to eat beyond eating some stale soup cracker packets. When we got to the Stan Sheriff Center, we bought two baked pretzels, popcorn, and peanuts. Finished the first two and will save the rest of the peanuts for tomorrow night's game.
Jason: Mahalo for the flagged for moderation information, but I can't find anything in it that might be naughty nor were there any URLs. And who does the moderating?
Chawan_Cut: Ran into Carl Clapp and summed up your comments about General Adminission seating for men's volleyball. He says that there may be some test-the-theory nights provided that the corporate sponsors who get blocks of seats in exchange for doing so will be willing to let others sit in their seats.
Be sure to save your HI5 containers - we're having another collection on Sunday, January 10.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:06 pm
I try to view the blog as a neighborhood bar.
There are regulars who try to have a good time .
There are the occasional patrons.
There are some who sit by themselves at the end of the bar who argue about everything.
Some people you give the extra popcorn.
Some you send home in a cab.
But let's be clear: I'm the bartender.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
Anyway, this is pretty much the last time I'm going explain rules.
I don't like to be the hall monitor. (Wow, I'm a bartender and a hall monitor.)
So from now on, if we take action, we take action. No more explaining.
Back to our regular programming ...
December 29th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
protector....no one yet on this island has been able to replicate the wonderful iced creams of that one time kapahulu desserterie.
we can only taste them in our minds.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
Moving away from desserts...I made great crab cakes tonight for dinner. Yum!
Since that got done before 8 pm, I went to the game. Exciting second half. They play Kent State again tomorrow night. You should go....
GO WAHINE!!! LET"S GO BOWS!!!
December 29th, 2009 at 10:16 pm
Hmmm another comment waiting moderation. i copied a part of the one from earlier today.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:16 pm
Bulla,
Season's over... hope the Beast is now with the family and resting at home, and that everyone is enjoying a good time over the holidays.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:17 pm
OFF-SPORTS TOPICS - skip over if you're not interested.
Still looking for referrals - first, where's a great place to eat - five-star, price-no-object - here on O`ahu? The bill will be paid by a client, but he isn't familiar with Honolulu's quality restaurants, but then neither are we. I read a good review of a restauramt called Kai Market at the Sheraton Waikiki, but I haven't run into anyone who's dined there.
Any recommendations?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:19 pm
Hey! Was that A-House, Mrs. A-House & Kelli on KGMB sports news? They were at the wahine game.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:19 pm
I like this bartender cause he would send me home earlier and I would save money. Hard to find this kind of bartender.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:21 pm
W-Doc,
Go to Alan Wong's on S. King. Good enough for the President.

December 29th, 2009 at 10:31 pm
I'm watching Kekaula now....
December 29th, 2009 at 10:37 pm
Got it! the word is
Think I might have found the offending word:
The other referral is for a computer speci-a-l-i-s-t - both hardware and software who can work with me to do some basic upgrades on my 2003 Dell desktop. It's slow, cranky, and full of unwanted stuff - and that goes well beyond spam & viruses. I'm still using Eudora for e-mail and WordPerfect for word-processing so I need to have someone help me move into the 21st century with software as well.
Unfortunately, I'm not a learn technical stuff from a book sort of person. The only way I learn new things is by having someone talk to me and walk me through a new process.
Buying a new computer system is not possible for probably another year and a half - had planned to do so sometime next fall, but the date got pushed back at least six months. Unlike most folks around here, we don't have any credit cards so putting a new system on plastic won'/cant work.
If you know of anyone who works as a tech consultant and can recommend this person, please send me his/her contact information to swood at hoku dot com.
CHANGE OF SUBJECT: Went to a meeting before the ball game to get a heads-up on what to expect at the upcoming legislative session.
Are you ready? The PowersThatBe are going to push for a bump in the General Excise Tax from 4% to 6% - wzxwpr on O`ahu where the rate would go from 4.6% to 6.6%
When I asked why not legalize gambling - even if it were just a lottery they said that the Hawai`i residents would never support legalized gambling.
And although the public might be ticked-off with a 50% increase in the GET, that would be an easier sell.
Let your legislators know which you prefer.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:39 pm
Ya know Tsai, a sports bar in the University area called the "Warrior Beat" would be a great idea. Al could come out of retirement and run it. Brilliant! The 5fs, karaoke, the best pupus ever, and occasional live acts like the Pride Serenaders. Bulla could bounce for ya.
December 29th, 2009 at 10:40 pm
wzxwpr = except
December 29th, 2009 at 10:44 pm
Doc-
I think the lottery idea is a great one. Maybe even join in with one of the big multi-state ones on the mainland. Casino gambling would be the final nail in the coffin, IMHO. If ya think real estate is expensive now, just imagine what it would be like if all the high rollers from around the world wanted a piece of this place?
December 29th, 2009 at 10:47 pm
Kid -- that idea came up the other season while ST was eating ribs in Texas. I think bulla was the bartender, you were the Maitre 'D, and I suggested Al as the executive chef and bouncer....
No talk of karaoke back then, but I'll be in charge of that...
December 29th, 2009 at 10:53 pm
SteveM-
At least we know who the grump at the end of the bar would be...
( No, Raplh, we're not talkin' about you.)
December 29th, 2009 at 10:58 pm
BTW Steve- We STILL need to make a late night run for some Shiro Burgers one of these times.
Good night all!

dpk....you just missed one of the best taiga series in "tenchijin" which concluded tonight. this the series based on historical events of the warring era of japan.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:06 pm
yeah John Dominis is a good one too!! Never been to Michel's but hear it is $$$$
December 29th, 2009 at 11:25 pm
Tenchijin was pretty good. Interesting in the way the Uesugi were portrayed, compared to Fūrin Kazan.
December 29th, 2009 at 11:47 pm
DPK -- I was wondering if I remembered correctly, so went searching the blog archives. It was in ST's September 6, 2007 blog entry...
Yup-- that was 5 months before rasu begasu re-appeared at Genji's for the first Karaoke Call. We now know that pride. can handle the mikes and homey can be the bouncer on the karaoke side...

The leg tackle focuses more on positioning so chances increase for optimal hits as well as muliple points of contact. Maybe in the future it'll narrow it down even more in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize your arsenal for complete football domination to become a all-madden phenom and is without a doubt superior in that regard. The practice strengths are its effectiveness. If those sound compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
