13. Here is something that is said, a man arrived from Tahiti named Mo‘ikeha, and at the time when he arrived, Kalapana was the ruler of Hawai‘i during this time. 14. When Mo‘ikeha arrived he settled on the island of Kaua‘i, and he slept with a woman named Hinau‘ula, and they gave birth to a son named Kila. 15. When Kila had grown up, he traveled to Tahiti, and it is thought that he left from the western point of Kaho‘olawe, because this point is called “The path to Tahiti.” 16. Kila arrived in Tahiti and upon his return to Hawai‘i, he brought along La‘amaikahiki, this was also when the kā‘eke‘eke drum was introduced, and the canoe lashing cords, and they settled back in Hawai‘i, and they also became ancestors for Hawai‘i’s royalty and others, these people and things were known to be from Tahiti in ancient times. 17. It is thought that Hawaiians are all part of one people stretching from Hawai‘i to Tahiti and including all islands in between. 18. Because, they all shared similar physical features, the languages are similar, the genealogies are comparable, and the legends, and the wooden god images, it is thought that all these people came to Hawai‘i in little groups. 19. Because, there (in Tahiti) they have large canoes called pahi, most likely the same canoes that they used to travel to Hawai‘i, it is also said, the ancient people were highly-skilled in observing the stars, which served as their compass during long journeys. 20. However, it is not said that the first canoes were of the pahi class, nor were they moku, or “ships”, but merely referred to as wa‘a. 21. It has been said, however, that these people came from the lewa, the atmosphere, from the windward or back of the heavenly island. 22. The meaning of these expressions is that they came from foreign lands, that is the air, and the front of that land is at the back of these islands. 23. Perhaps this was a people that were banished by war, or driven this way by winds and storms, perhaps Asia is this place that is referred to by a region of air, or possibly the expression refers to islands that they drifted around in and visited before arriving here, so that on their arrival they declared they came from the back of these islands. 24. Perhaps these people were from the Israelites, because we know that certain customs of the Israelites were practiced here in Hawai‘i. 25. Circumcision, places of refuge, tabus relating to burial rites, restrictions upon menstruating women, the isolation of a woman who just gave birth for seven days after the birth, all these things were practiced by the Hawaiian people. 26. Perhaps these people are those spoken of in the Word of God as “the lost sheep of the House of Israel”, because when we really study it, we can see that the people of Asia are very similar to the native inhabitants of these islands and those of Tahiti and the islands surrounding them.

Seems kind of out of place to respond to your post on me blog, but, figure here is as good as anywhere?

My work out: is not going so well. I was going to post a really long comment on your blog, but maybe I'll do it on my own blog instead. Anyone who's reading this is going, who the hell is this kid? HA

Hope you had a good night

Anyway, hope you guys like him! And thankfully I went running today... Lord knows I haven't really been in the gym for the past two weeks...yikes... ok, I better get some sleep so that I can hit the gym tomorrow. See ya!

Oooh but I have to say.. there were some HOT Filipinos there... yum... especially this one guy who just had the perfect perfect a&f type build... filipino/hawaiian/white mix... mmmm... if only he was gay .. heheheeh j/k Ok, anyway, in celebration of the end of the graduation season, I figured I'd do something fun and informative... yup, another survey!!

Very cool survey. It was good to have a peek "behind the curtain".6/07/2005 03:35:00 PM|W|P| D. Travers Scott|W|P|Woo-hoo! Congrats, man! Great feeling of relief, huh? I'm donning the cap 'n gown myself this Friday...6/05/2005 12:51:00 PM|W|P|hbjock|W|P|Hey everybody... well, I have one more day of graduations and then the season is over! Woo hoo!! Thankfully, Punahou's graduation last night was pretty good. The speeches were actually pretty good and one of them actually brought me to tears thinking back to my high school days... Anyway, they've also managed to learn how to speed up the name-calling process so the whole thing went by pretty easily. The one "off" part was that for some reason, it seems every high school graduation now includes the singing of several songs by the graduating class. Ok, can I just ask, what is up with that? At least Punahou looks like they put some effort into it because they were singing in harmonies with musical accompaniment rather than everyone singing the melody line... HOWEVER, they need to stay away from Hawaiian songs... they're pronunciation was HORRIBLE. But other than that, I enjoyed the graduation! Tonight is Waipahu's graduation, my home town... and from what I hear, NOBODY is looking forward to working this one... I just sincerely hope that I get put on the floor tonight, and not up on the second floor/general seating area... Anyway, hopefully it'll all be over by 8-9pm... then I have almost an entire week off from work. I can't wait... Other than that, my personal life seems to suck these days for reasons that I'd rather not go into right now.. let's just say my heart is really lonely at this point in time, and although I do have someone of interest in mind, for the moment, everything is at a stand-still with him... how much of this I can handle, I do not know... I just pray that it will all work out in the end. "And yes, Annelle, I do pray...."|W|P|111801239577658419|W|P|One Day More...|W|P|bfljock79@gmail.com6/05/2005 03:16:00 PM|W|P| drifter|W|P|Hey man - hang in there. Things always get better despite them appearing to be pretty shitty at points. I have been there, done that, etc. and you will too. If you need a good listener or anything - let me know.

Hope all is well and the graduation is going good.

-Defect6/05/2005 04:52:00 PM|W|P| Glenn Ingersoll|W|P|I worked at a sandwich shop for awhile and whenever somebody had a birthday the room would clang with a loud obnoxious version of the happy birthday song. Since none of us could sing (or didn't care to) we chose to emphasize the point. Not for the fainthearted, but kinda fun.

Much luck in love!6/04/2005 02:56:00 AM|W|P|hbjock|W|P|Hey gang, well today I was working the graduation of Maryknoll School, a local high school .... and I've come to the realization that these kids did not take a public speaking course in high school. I mean, with the exception of the students of the Kamehameha Schools, EVERY graduation I've worked this year has had some of the dumbest valedictorian speeches I've ever heard. This school's valedictorial speech? It was about how they've gone through soooo many difficulties and strife through the last 4 years... and I quote.. "Freshman year we had to deal with '9/11' only a few weeks into school.... Sophomore year we were challenged with the task of being 'extras' in '50 first dates'.. and now here we are at the end of what seems to be the ultimate journey." HUH?? I mean come on.... what kind of heartfelt speech is that? Where is the profound thought and advice for the future that you would expect the smartest kid in the class to provide? Oh, and maybe I'm just being a total bitch... but... in my high school, we have an annually televised song contest where the classes compete against each other singing chorally arranged Hawaiian songs without any musical accompaniment... And anyway, most of the high schools here will sing songs during their graduation... usually something popular that has significant lyrics for one reason or another. BUT what irritates me is that there's no harmony! I mean, if you're gonna sing for your graduation which is the BIGGEST event of your high school career.. at least put some effort into it! And what cracks me up is that they need a musical director to lead them.. and then when they stand up together and sit down together, there's "ooohs" and "aaahhhs" throughout the audience... oh, and this class.. decided to sing some song that apparently had one line of Hawaiian language that repeated itself through almost every other line... I was dying... The artistic gay Hawaiian in me just wanted to "rip" them left and right... Anyway, I'm just glad that I'm only working two more graduations... tomorrow I'm working a graduation for Punahou, the oldest private high school west of the Rockies... and then on Sunday night I'm working the graduation for Waipahu, a public high school, which by the way, is the local high school for the town I live in =). Ok, I gotta get my ass to bed... see ya!|W|P|111789064445358776|W|P|Graduations Winding Down...|W|P|bfljock79@gmail.com6/04/2005 02:46:00 PM|W|P| jetboy|W|P|Okay, just because you can belt out a flawless Whitney Houston's "The Greatest Love of All", doesn't mean the rest of us can.

No, you're point is valid. And keep working those legs!

Jetboy6/05/2005 07:18:00 AM|W|P| Donnie|W|P|Yes, these kids today! LOL.....careful, your age is beginning to show! ;-)6/02/2005 01:42:00 PM|W|P|hbjock|W|P|Hey gang, sorry I've been non-existant for most of this week. My best friend of all time came into town for a brief visit before going back to work for SWA so that's where I've been ;). Anyway, here's the "Hottie" of the Week, or I guess I should say "Hotties". This week I decided since it was Memorial Day, that I'd highlight probably the largest presence of military on these islands, the Navy. Navy guys always "get shit" from other armed forces, but you know what... they're always among the first to be sent anywhere in times of battle. So this one is for all the sailor lovers out there. Unfortunately, I couldn't really find legit pics of real sailors so you may have to imagine it ok? =)

Ok, so he's probably a porn star, but still the uniform looks hot!

Wooo hooo!! I did find one real pic, a team of Navy Seals, probably the most INTENSE training unit of any of the armed forces... The Seals get sent in when all else fails and you need to get shit done right.

And this one... well, come on he's just outright hot. And it kinda reminded me of my buddy M. Ok, so he's not built like this yet, but he has a bunch of shell necklaces, and since we were hanging out today, it made me think of him!|W|P|111775572932816864|W|P|Hottie of the Week 5-30|W|P|bfljock79@gmail.com6/03/2005 03:07:00 AM|W|P| Brechi|W|P|wow, way to get me all horny this morning. lol6/03/2005 06:09:00 AM|W|P| Donnie|W|P|BFLjock, man...you really know what buttons to push!
