Drove over to the north shore on Oahu, Hawaii today and went to the polynesian cultural center located in Laie. This place is a fun place to learn about Polynesia and learn about what makes up Polynesia and where the people originally came from and what is unique about each culture and what makes them different. It’s a really cool experience if you ever get the chance to go. Here are some of the photos I took of this event.
Monday night football resulted with the Washington Redskins beating the Dallas Cowboys 14-13. Now not to much surprise this really wasn’t an exciting game. This game seemed to have a combination of strong defenses and conservative play calling that led to the non exciting performances, not to mention the temperature on the field of play was about 100 degree F. Basically to sum up the game Dallas scored a field goal in the 2nd quarter. The score at halftime was 3-0 Dallas was up. Then in the opening minutes of the 3rd quarter Dallas came out to score a quick touchdown. In the 4th quarter Dallas scored another field goal and then with about 4 minutes left in the game the Redskins scored their 1st touchdown on a 39 yard pass from Mark Brunell to Santana Moss and then with 3 minutes and 46 seconds left the Redskins scored on a 79 yard pass from Brunell to Moss. It was awesome to see the Redskins beat the Cowboys, but the performance in their offense needs to definitely step up their game.
Here I was on a boat taking a photo of a sunsetting over the west side of the Hawaiian Island of Oahu.
Your age by chocolate math’, ‘Work this out as you read …
Be sure you don”t read the bottom until you”ve worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it”s fun.
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate
(more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50 — I”ll wait while you get the calculator .
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1755 ….
If you haven”t, add 1754.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number .
The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).
The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)
From the wonderful world of Toronto Canada comes this lovely joke called, “The TRUTH about Barbecuing”‘, ‘Barbecuing is the only type of cooking a real man will do. When a man declares he will BBQ the following chain of events is put into motion:
1.) The woman goes to the store and buys everything.
2.) The woman makes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
3.) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, beer in hand.
4.) The man places the meat on the grill.
5.) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6.) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He
thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.
7.) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.
8.) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.
9.) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
10.) Everyone praises man and thanks him for his cooking efforts.
11.) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed; her night off. And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there”s just no pleasing a woman.
The Englishman’s wife steps up to the tee, and as she bends over to place her ball, a sudden gust of wind blows her skirt up—revealing she isn’t wearing any underwear.
“Good God, woman! Why aren’t you wearing any knickers?” her husband demands.
“Well, you don’t give me enough housekeeping money to afford any,” she replies.
The Englishman immediately reaches into his pocket. “For the sake of decency, here’s fifty. Go and buy yourself some proper underwear.”
Next, the Irishman’s wife steps up to the tee. As she bends down to set her ball, the wind lifts her skirt and shows she, too, has nothing on underneath.
“Blessed Virgin Mary, woman! You’ve no knickers! Why not?” the Irishman cries.
“I can’t afford any on the money you give me,” she explains.
He sighs, reaches into his pocket, and says, “For the sake of decency, here’s twenty. Go and buy yourself some underwear!”
Finally, the Scotsman’s wife bends over to place her ball. The wind whips up her skirt, revealing she is also completely bare beneath it.
“Sweet mother of Jaysus, Aggie! Where the frig are yer drawers?” he exclaims.
She shrugs. “Ye dinna give me enough money to afford any.”
The Scotsman reaches into his pocket, hands her a comb, and says, “Well, fer the love o’ Jaysus, and the sake o’ decency… tidy yerself up a bit.”
Think about this: Doctors:
(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000.
(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000.
(C) Accidental deaths per physician are 0.171.
Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health Human Services
Now think about this: Guns:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. (Yes, that”s 80 million.)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .000188.
Statistics courtesy of FBI
So statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.
Remember, “Guns don”t kill people, doctors do.”
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!!!!
Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.

Saturday was the football game where the number 1 University of Southern California played the University of Hawaii. It was well known that the game was not going to be close and that was predicted by a 35 point spread for those gambling people. USC had most of their returning players, while the UH football team lost 30 of it”s players last year. UH did however pick up Jerry Glandville to compliment June Jones coaching.’, ‘The disappointing factor of this game was that there seemed to be no overwhelming dominance by USC. Granted USC scored 63 points by the end of the game, but the spark of excitement in the Aloha stadium just seemed to be lacking. An estimated total of 15,000 USC fans attended the game and the game was televised. The overwhelming size difference between the USC and UH players was definitely a big factor.
All in all the game was fun to go tailgate and watch, but there just seemed to be some lacking excitement. That was probably due to Hawaii knowing they were defeated prior to opening kickoff.

Went to the University of Southern California against the University of Hawaii football game today. This was a fun game because USC has Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush with a whole bunch of other good players. The University of Hawaii had Colt Brennan. The game was not even close from the start. The high performance of the artificial turf of the Aloha stadium really helped facilitate the speed of this game. It was a complete romp all in USC’s favor with a final score of 62 to 17. Here are photos of the event.
