Dedicated to the ones that paved the way for me

Painted with Gaze HB FTA while in New York 2008

Before the New York trip we went to Compton and chilled with Evol in Crip Central. Almost got jacked by some vatos with big LA tatts.
Finished prody in NYC

Fore fathers of the Tattoo world, Mini musubi, and mutant mokes,

I was feeling a little under the weather today, but, decided to ride my bike around Honolulu. I decided to stop by the infamous Soul Signature Tattoo to say hello to a couple buddies. To my surprise, I ran into the fore-fathers of the tattoo world! These guys were super humble and easy going. It was pretty cool just to be in the presence of "the ones that came before" and paved the way for the tattoo community.


Made a guest apperance @ the mutant moke show. The event was 'sic'! Too bad my ipod got stolen... :-<. Thank God my friend had his camera going and got the pincher on video. Watcha back homie! Ha! This little moke is doing a few touch ups on his painting.
Mini Musubi!!! Ohhh my god, I can eat about two plates of these things!
Rockin' different versions of the Mutant Moke shirts. Hit me up if yah want one for just $25.
Micah decided to surprise Jandi with a Birthday cake @ the show. She looked stoked!
Some of the mini mokes throwing up their set.
The b-boy battle was insane. We'll get the footage to you next time. More flics to come. Visit us at Diverse Art Center. That's the place to be mang!
Much Alohaz to all the sponsors and the people who came out and supported the event. I feel this is the next generation of influence. I'm just there to help them harness those skills and to witness them excel in their craft. Such a blessing to see Hawaii represent.

The worst day ever!

The day seemed to escalate with problems from the start until the very (bitter) end.

5:30a- Woke up to the rain crashing down on the wifey and my "just washed" clothes hanging on the line. Sometimes it's just good to have a dryer...you know?

6:00a- Read an email from an irate student.

7:00a- At the laundry mat re-drying everything.

8:00a- Go home, eat left overs from dinner the night before.

8:30a- Wrote in blog. Starting to feel a little bit better.

9:30a- Ride my bike to the tattoo shop. Almost all better.

10:00a- Notice that my bike tire is getting flat. What!?! I just changed it!

11:00a- Clean tubes.

11:30a- Boss talks to me about, ah man, a giant mistake. I did an outline for someone's tattoo and didnt' proof read it all the way. Big...big...BIGGGG mistake!

12:00p- By now, feeling really horrible, tired and hungry.

12:30p- Walked to Mcully bike shop to get a new tube for my bike.

1:30p- At the tattoo shop, in the back where it smells like sewage, trying to change my tire.

2:00p- Ate a (frozen) burrito for lunch.

2:30p- Helped out an artist get ready for their art show at Tattoolicious.

3:00p- On my way to my 2nd job on my bike, my boss for the 2nd job yells out the window: "Hurry up! Ha, ha..." so loud that I almost lose control and face plant.

3:30p- Change and get ready to serve at a restaurant.

4:00p- Start to serve tables and get instantaneously slammed with 8 tables.

6:30p- I get a guest complaint to the manager saying that I was slow and gave them bad service. Ah...kind of hard with 8 tables of more than 2 each?

7:oop-Punched in the wrong food.

7:30p- Punched in a wrong order.

8:00p- By now? Getting hungry.

8:30p- Ate half of a burger that was about three hours old.

9:00p- Got cut from my shift to do my side work and somebody else's side work. :-<

10:30p- Ride my bike home.

11:00p- Arrive at home wondering: what a day! Tried to process what I could possibly learn from all the craziness.

12:00a- Yeah, I'm still up. Remembered a friend that got murdered this same day11 years ago. I became thankful again, for life and learning how to slow down; not overwhelm myself with a lot of stuff on the "plate".

Find Rest my soul, Time waits for no man.

The weeks just fly by! Note to self: I have to fight for each little moment. It seems like each second has to have a purpose. I hate wasting time. I want to take advantage of every day. Please people...take advantage of the time you have now. "Opportunities of a lifetime" only happen once in a lifetime. I'm big on the idea "take risks".


The wifey prepping up her relay bike portion for a Triathlon Sunday.


Euka prepping up the beer gut and resurrecting his bike. The bus takes more money than driving my car! I needed to find another way of transportation this week.
I hardly see the sunrise. Today was one of the best picturesque sun rises I've seen! (Lanikai, HI)
The ladies getting ready for the Triathlon...
Dude, look who I found at the race? The most famous Ckaweeks from All Natro! Check out their album or even his blog: blogspot. ckaweeks.blogspot.com

Trying to move mountains? Impossible with my own strength. Anything with the Almighty Jah.
Woke up this morning to a little rain. Pissed, because three loads of clothes are hanging in my back yard. Early start to a Monday @ the Laundry mat 7am.
Ready to start a new week. Wee you at the Mutant Ninja Mokes art show!
