Culture or Cruelty? This is Culture.
Good morning 5:50am.
North shore down to 2-3′ from the North. Little bumpy conditions. South shore waist high and super junky conditions.
South/West winds so East side best. But small.
Clouds and rain becoming sunny later this afternoon.
North winds coming back later this evening or tonight.
Going surfing.
Have a wonderful day!

it’s amazing what kinds of waves people are surfing nowadays. but as for this wave, it is totally unridable. no possible way for a safe takeoff.

i’ve been to Hiroshi Yakiniku in waikiki about 3 years ago. back then, it was a big 2 floor restaurant, the food was good, but nothing special. i got a chance to go back there the other night and things have changed a lot. now it’s small and compact on the 2nd floor. the food quality and service went way up, so did the prices. i’ve eaten Yuke in hawaii, japan, and korea. but Hiroshi’s Yuke was the best i’ve ever had.

and the beef from miyazaki was amazing. just melt in your mouth. if you have money and want to have the best yakiniku, go to Hiroshi. if you don’t have money, go to Gyokaku. you just can’t compare the two.

i’ve been diving for 30 years and haven’t seen a big tako like this before. today was my lucky day! after i tricked it out of the hole, it climbed up my arm and on my head. i thought it was going to eat me! a monster 4.6 kilo or 11lbs. tako!!! enough tako poke for everyone! this big boy was hiding in a hole in 15′ deep water. tako season is here!

the sunsets have been amazing! tonights looked like a volcano.

this girl Kim Kardashian just want’s attention and will do anything to get it. after posing pure frontal naked in paper magazine, i’m sure she’s getting all the attention she could ever imagine. too bad this is fake. cheers!
