It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.
- Theodore Roosevelt
I hope that no one will claim to know the final answers; no good comes from prophets. But even when acknowledging our falibility, we must nevertheless continue to think about these matters and give the advice to others that intellect and conscience dictate. And let God be our judge, as our grandparents used to say. - Sakharov

I occasionally type my name into Google to see what pops up. Today, I found a super old document that listed the Big Island interschoolastic sports allstar teams. Kainoa and myself were on the soccer list. I had almost forgotten about that I was selected. I wonder how the rest of the guys are doing, I havn't talked to any of them in years. Here is the URL I'm gonna copy the content into my site in hopes that google will re-index those names and someday they will stumble onto my site.

Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties & local pubs
to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from any woman.
Many females use a date rape drug on the market called "Beer."
The drug is found in liquid form and is available anywhere. It comes in
bottles, cans, or from taps and in large "kegs".
Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade
their male victims to go home and sleep with them. A woman needs only
to get a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then simply ask him
home for no strings attached sex. Men are rendered helpless against this approach.

Joe, and Steve and his firefighter buddies and I hiked all the way to
the top of half dome at Yosemite. It was much more grueling than I
expected. We got up at 4AM and got the hike started at 6AM, we didn't
get back to camp until 7PM! 16+ miles and over 4400 feet of vertical
climbing. It was rough.
 That little speck on the left on the cliff is me. Top of Half Dome! |

I've never heard of Pat Dollard before, but this documentary looks like its gonna be pretty interesting. Hopefully we'll be able to see some new unfiltered footage. I've been limited to video clips on Ogrish.com to follow the brutality of this war, but sadly it appears there are more propoganda footage being transmitted on the net by the anti-new-Iraq groups than ours. If you can't handle Ogrish.com, you might want to not watch the trailer. Trailer Page

TuckerMax and Maddox are somewhat similar essay and story writers that many internet junkies including myself have read from time to time in the past through links in emails or web forums. Both are brilliant and comical writers that cater prominently to male audiences. Though, during the review of Maddox's new book, TuckerMax also did a good job articulating the some of the social pressures many men our age range face. The meaty parts of his essay come toward the middle. Click subject title or "read more" to read it inline.

Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening,
terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in
this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the
religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by
giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their
view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and
learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness;
chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself.
Think for yourself.
Question authority. - TOOL "Salival - Third Eye Intro"
WARNING: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word
you read of this useless fine print is another second of your life. Don't
you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't
think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with
authority that you give respect and credence to all who claim it? Do you
think everything you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told you should
want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop
excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove
you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic.
You have been warned...... - Fight Club
