We all know the feds don't like it when other gangs, be they political, criminal, or (usually) both, hold too much sway over a given city or region. The Feds prefer being the toughest gang in the hemisphere.

Going to be interesting to see if and how the Michael Miske Jr. case gets connected to the Kealoha case. According to Attorney Megan Kau, who was representing her client, an officer for HPD. Miske has ties to the Kealoha corruption case. Ian Lind has informative updates on the Miske case on his blog and Civil Beat and his reports show on the Feds are working the case. As is usual the case, a Fed investigation can take years, but when the indictments start rolling out, convictions are almost guaranteed. Many of the associates of Miske who were indicted with him have already cut deals with the Feds and are providing more information on Miske, which in turn, may have ramifications in the ongoing Kealoha case.Feds just getting started, from what I hear. These are big arrests, but they know these aren't the ringleaders, and the alphabet agencies have a tendency to crawl up one's ass with a flashlight.
If the Kealohas would have just come up with a scheme that didn't involve a mailbox, the feds wouldn't even be here! Uncle and Auntie wen fuk up
Just surfed perfect glassy Sunset and got one wave before I got mowed and twisted my knee. So I'm done but Hawaii, yeah not done

Haha that was probably a workout! Lots of wash-throughs when it's this west. I iced and braced the knee and Ibuprofen-ed up and paddled back out this morning for more pain. Conditions are so insane.fk that, Sunset scares me when it's this big. I went vland and ran the treadmill with three other guys.
interesting article - lots of flight-of-the-workforce blaming going on. i don't know Hawaii but i know that's happening in a lot of other places (e.g. Sun Valley, SF etc etc ). it's quite interesting when the rich lock themselves into a lifestyle that no one else can afford and then there's no one to serve them because no one else can afford to live there. not a bad thing, imho - looking forward to seeing how it all turns out.Hawaii is DONE, because Beach Grit says so.
Caution for the easily triggered: some quite racist comments in the comments section.
Beach Grit
That's such a good way to put itit's quite interesting when the rich lock themselves into a lifestyle that no one else can afford and then there's no one to serve them because no one else can afford to live there.
Worked on a house that’s next door to where one of the carpenters we work with used to live. Told him I painted your old neighbors house. He laughed. Said there was a block/neighborhood party and the neighbor was a little drunk. He started bragging about being a millionaire and how successful he is. The carpenter, who’s a big local moke, scoffed at the bragging and told him I use lick guys like you in school and walked away. Haha.interesting article - lots of flight-of-the-workforce blaming going on. i don't know Hawaii but i know that's happening in a lot of other places (e.g. Sun Valley, SF etc etc ). it's quite interesting when the rich lock themselves into a lifestyle that no one else can afford and then there's no one to serve them because no one else can afford to live there. not a bad thing, imho - looking forward to seeing how it all turns out.
Yesterday morning my friend and I scored a fun biggish tow session at a Maui outer reef with no one else around. As we're returning into Kahului harbor I saw a familiar outfit (red shorts, yellow tank top, orange helmet) carving it up on a foil on the wave next to the channel. I yelled out and sure enough, it was the Steamroller. He looked to be having as much fun as us with only two other guys sharing his wave. Hawaii not done!!
Guardrails has become THE foil spot. Living within biking range I'm awfully tempted to learn. The longboard waves at Kahului harbor have been popular with foilers for years but this was the first time I saw them on the ledging wave west of the channel. It's usually a shortboard & bodyboard spot. As we were loading the ski on the trailer a guy was walking toward the water with a body-foil board. You get any photos of him Clinton?I imagine with foils now a lot of people are foiling 1000 peaks, guard rails, and the harbor?
