Actually Hawaii gets a little cold for me.
You know, that is a fairly common statement I hear. Humidity is high here all the time, so when the temps dip and the trade winds pick up, it saps the heat out of you faster than most people think. But surfing in January w/o a wetsuit is always cool. To bad the last 2 times I’ve been there the swells were not even as good as SoCal. What’s the point of going to Hawaii if there’s no surf…oh yeah Japanese girls. A surfer from Arizona! COOL! I tried surfing a few times, and getting dragged all over the reef was not my idea of a good time. Winter swells on the north shore can be flat (relatively speaking) some seasons. With regards to the eyecandy around here, as a happily married man, I can say that its nice to read what is on the menu, but I would never order anything! Sorry for going OT BTW....

Palm trees, sand and ocean for me ... I get cold just from looking at all of the license tags during the winter. ::Planning on throwing a cyber-snowball at Rick as soon as I can::

It's kind of a trade-off....I love the summers around here: hot and basically sunshine from 5:00 am to 9:30pm...but winters, you either love 'em or hate 'em. People who are into winter sports generally love it where people who stay indoors don't. Wintertime means lots of trade shows, car shows, boat shows, woodworking shows ect ect as well.
Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

Yeeouch, that does indeed sound cold ... speaking of cold, I believe it's time for a refill on the Barbancourt Rhum (Five Star) and a little Robert Earl Keen on the DVD.
Cheers Y'all!

A surfer from Arizona! COOL!
I first tried surfing in SoCal when I was stationed at Camp Pendleton. “Popcorn,” our corpsman, was a local and got me in with the other locals around San Clemente. Didn’t really start enjoying or getting any good until I was stationed in Ghana. I started body boarding with some wooden boards that “Sam the Great,” former Ghanaian Olympic swimmer’s, sons rented at Labadi Beach. Then while I was dating the German Ambassadors daughter her brother brought a 6’1” thruster down for his summer break. He never got the hang of it so he sold it to me because I was the only person in Accra “crazy” enough to body surf/board the Labadi Beach break at that time when it was big. That’s when I went nuts surfing 6-10 hours a day almost every day of the week. There was some nice surf along the Ghanaian coast and best of all in a year and a half I only ran into one other surfer, a guy from Canada out from the World Bank. Continued surfing when I was stationed in New Zealand and later Sierra Leone. Eventually I accumulated 5 boards ranging from a 5’4” thruster to a 10’4” longboard. Only have 4 now as I gave the 9’6” board to Canadian when I left Sierra Leone. I just realized I met a lot of Canadians when I lived in Africa. Always remember we’d make fun of the way the Brits with us would eat pizza with a knife and fork working from the center out while we’d cut into wedges. Only places I’ve surfed in the last 2 years are Hawaii, Guam and Okinawa. Nice thing about those places is they’re also tourist destinations for Japanese…girls. P.S. Surfing is never OT. P.P.S. Surfing is better than sex! Cheers, Dean

I was dating the German Ambassadors daughter ... Surfing is better than sex! I just have to wonder if this would still be the case if you were dating the Japanese ambassador's daughter.
