Ship's Ahoy! - Experiencing an Alaskan Cruise for the Very First Time - Part III
Rated 5.0 Stars
Ahhh, day 5. We're more than halfway through our Alaskan adventure, but there's still so much more to see and do. In this Part 3, we'll be visiting Sitka, eating dinner at Pinnacle Grill, taking in a show, and fattening up at the Dessert Extravaganza. Our boat docked near Sitka at about 8AM. I say "near" because unlike our other stops, disembarking would not be quite as easy. More »

Koko Head Crater Trail Hike - Nature's Stairmaster
Rated 5.0 Stars
A sudden increase in the amount of Koko Head trail "tweets" and "status updates" lately prompted me to rearrange the sched - just a tad - and dig up some old images to pen this article. Who knows? After I'm pau, maybe I can jump on the ol' bandwagon and send out a sweet tweet myself. More »

Anuhea Jenkins - Reppin' Hawaii One Song At a Time
Rated 5.0 Stars
You know how sometimes, when you're out on the town, eating and drinking with your homies, background music is just that, background music? Neither here nor there, it's usually just "stuff" filling the empty spaces around your conversation. Well, once you hear her voice, there's no way that one Anuhea Jenkins can ever be considered background again. More »

Just In Time - A Conversation With Justin Young, Superstar In the Making
Rated 5.0 Stars
I still remember it like it was yesterday. The year was 1995. The place was Tower Records Kahala (R.I.P). I was with my boy Grant, vibin' on the new "Hawaiian" releases on Tower's listening stations, and came across a new fella by the name of "Justin." The album was "No Better Time Than Now" and featured a young dude in a white tank, crouching on a sandy beach, holding a uke. I was like, "Oh, I gotsta see what this bad boy is all about!" More »

Wowie In Maui - Part II
Rated 5.0 Stars
We did nothing but feed our faces in the last one di'in't we? And nooo, it wasn't due to the "munchies" silly. It was simply because it was all *I* did during my westerly travels in Maui. But trust..., if you are patient enough, I'll make like Sean Kingston and Shorty, I will take you there. More »

A Family Who Works Together, Stays Together
Rated 5.0 Stars
Rushing stores at the crack of dawn on Black Friday, having family over on Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day . . . wrapping presents, dropping off gifts, waiting for Santa, popping fireworks and going to pick up your order from Tanioka's? Yes, added to typical holiday traditions in Hawaii, is picking up your onolicious food from Tanioka's Seafood and Catering, located in the heart of Waipahu. More »

Tinman Tips - A First Timer's Guide to Tinman Success
Rated 4.0 Stars
Late last month, your boy manned up and checked yet another item off the ol' "bucket list": Compete in the Hawaii Tinman. On Sunday, July 26th, the 2009 Tinman Triathlon was in full effect and, bright eyed and bushy tailed, I was there yo. Having a couple of marathons already under my belt, I was going into the Tinman thinking it would be another cakewalk. Boy was I mistaken! More »

Shave Ice Ice Baby
Something fishy is definitely going on here... The airports have been bustling with college folk and local eateries and nightclubs are a' bumpin'. You're no longer alone at the beaches and malls, and there's an unusually large amount of parties and family functions to get to. And let's not ignore the fact that you're sweating profusely like Kalua pig at a luau. Yep gang... like Bell Biv Devoe's Poison, Summer is in full effect! More »
