But, if I had a $ for every botched, butchered and otherwise unfixable tattoo that was put on somebody by a “respectful” and “cool” person, I could pay cash for a house on Maui. If you want to get a tattoo, do yourself a favor; check out more than one or two shops. Look at portfolios. Ask Around. Don’t get tattooed by an “asshole.”

And don’t get a tattoo from someone just cuz they’re “cool.” Think before you ink.

The Editor Responds: I can assure you, KB AKA Knucklehead too!, if that is indeed your real name, that our very thorough and professional Fact Checking, Research and Getting the Editor’s Car Washed Department looked into the validity of both the puke bottle Eh Brah! and that letter from the guy commenting on the incident, and both were found to be legitimate.

Indeed, the Department even went so far as to task five researchers with a series of tests designed to closely approximate the event in question. In each test, the researcher imbibed a considerable quantity of beer—I believe it was a domestic—until vomiting could be induced.

Happily, I can report to you that four of the five tests came back positive—ie, the researcher was able to “puke into a beer bottle.”

“You’re a Good Kid” Maui Mall goes to the dogs It’s not every day you see an Australian Sheepdog ride a skateboard. Well, “ride” in the dog sense of placing two front paws on the deck and pushing the board around a stage with the back legs. It’s still something to see.

Anyone who walked though the middle of the Maui Mall on Saturday, Sept. 20 at about 4:15 in the afternoon when the Puunene-based Valley Isle Kennel Club’s “Meet the Breeds” dog show was in full swing saw it.

The dog’s name was Breezy. She was there with her Australian Sheepdog pal Cutter and her owner, P a m Hayes, who said she walks them twice a day and looked and talked exactly like a junior high school teacher.

“What I’m doing here is I’m rewarding them for sitting quietly,” Hayes said, enunciating every syllable.

“It’s something I try to do for my seventh grade class. But I think Breezy is in the doggy union. If I don’t give her treats, she won’t do tricks.”

Owners can train dogs to do many things: jump through hula hoops, heel on command, even, according to a Kennel Club official, “assist with shopping transactions.”

There were few shopping transactions displayed during the Kennel Club’s show.

But the star was unquestionably a big Golden Retriever named Duke. He demonstrated remarkable obedience and control.

During one trick, his owner Betty Brask rubbed her hands over a small metal bar for a few moments, then dropped the bar in a pile of nearly identical bars. Each time Brask did this, Duke walked over, sniffed through the pile, then retrieved the correct bar.

According to the Valley Isle Kennel Club, Duke “holds the most obedience titles of any dog on Maui ever.” His awards read like some kind of military code: “High in Trial, a CGC, CD, CDX, UD and has nine out of 10 legs towards his UDX title.” He had his own booth at the show, complete with piles of his ribbons from the Hilo Obedience Training Club, American Kennel Club and the Aloha State Sporting Dog Association, among others.

The owners constantly talked to their dogs. “You’re a good kid,” one woman kept

telling her black and white Cocker Spaniel, sitting patiently on a table while leashed to a metal pole that swung over his head. “Yes, you are. You’re a good kid.”

The cliché is that anyone who thinks dog shows are just casual events hasn’t seen Best in Show. The movie was fiction, but it wasn’t made up. In fact, it reflected the reality of dog shows and highly competitive dog owners with stunning accuracy.

Indeed, there is a substantial industry built around the world of dogs and dog competition that easily eclipses other hobbies like needlepoint or stamp collecting.

Pick up any of their periodicals—a few were on display at the Maui Mall. There was The ECSCA Review, published by the English Cocker Spaniel Club of America. Their winter, 2003 edition ran 125 pages. Don’t like Cocker Spaniels? Then peruse Pug Talk, a Dallas, Texas-based publication that bills itself as “Selected by Dog Writers of America as the #1 Single Breed Magazine in 1994 and 1996.”

More interested in finding someone to care for your dog while you’re on vacation? Then thumb through World of Professional Pet Sitting, published by the group Pet Sitters International in King, North Carolina.

There were plenty of freebies available, too: Free hair combs, Salty Dog Pet Grooming business cards wrapped up into little packages with a couple biscuit treats and even sample packets of a new dog food containing duck and potato and marketed by TV’s Dick Van Patten.

Of course, the fundamental paradox of dog shows remains that the dogs—the whole foundation of the event—have no idea or concept that they are in do-or-die competition. It’s just stimulus-response with them: command-treat, command-treat. So why put the dog through all this work—jumping through hoops and riding skateboards and carrying out minor business transactions? Why not just give them dog treats from time to time and let the dog be a dog?

Titles are “a way to honor the dog, an ultimate memorial,” wrote Brask in an essay titled “What is an Obedience Title Really?”

“It will remain in the records books and in memory for about as long as anything in this world can remain,” wrote Brask. “Few humans will do as well in that regard.” MTW

LOCALNEWS MONDAY, SEPT. 15 It’s the start of “International Housekeepers Week” throughout Maui County! We even got a photo of Mayor Arakawa and a Maui Hotel Association lobbyist posing with 17 housekeepers from the big resorts in Kaanapali and Wailea. This was done “as part of world-wide recognition of the dedication and commitment of housekeeping professionals who ensure that our hotels, hospitals and other major facilities are clean, attractive and healthy,” according to a county press release. And I bet all those thousands of housekeepers on Maui are really happy. Who needs decent wages and health benefits when you’ve got a whole week to… uh, work hard… Speaking of resorts, one of my many confidential sources just tipped me off that the county council is finally going to tear the big Makena Resort project away from councilmember Wayne Nishiki. (I believe my source’s source was the council agenda, but who cares.) Wow. How many years has he kept that monster bottled up?

Ten? More than 10? I don’t know, I’m asking you. Anyway, it’s been a long time. For those who can’t remember, Makena Resort wants to build over a thousand homes on a few hundred acres right at beautiful Makena Beach.

Nishiki, a long-time opponent of the plan, has pretty much kept the proposal stalled in his Land Use Committee.

under control. Sure, it smells really bad, but if you know a better way to harvest sugar cane, I’d like to hear it. Really, I would. Call it a hobby of mine. Anyway, it works great usually, except today, when the workers accidentally allow a controlled burn to become a, well, uncontrolled burn that really quickly takes out a few hundred acres. With winds gusting up to 25 miles per hour, as they are wont to do in that area, you gotta wonder why they thought any kind of burn could be “controlled.”

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 17 Is that Waikapu fire out yet? It is? Cool.

Finally, though it isn’t until late into the night that firefighters, helped by a Hawaii National Guard helicopter from Wheeler Field on Oahu, finally bring the blaze under control. And by “under control,” I mean “finally stopped after it consumed a thousand acres.” Sure, it was just dry brush that got all roasted, but still.

In a front page, above the fold story headlined “Capture Nears for Big Cat,” Joe Sugarman writes that his paper has been contacted by “experienced big cat hunters,” one of whom said, “You should be moving quickly on this.” The story doesn’t specify whether the “you” in that sentence refers to Sugarman, the Maui Weekly staff or all us Maui residents, but the story goes on to report that state officials have authorized “funds” to bring in the cat. Will hunters kill the Big Cat? Or will they merely tranquilize it, then put it on display as the

Sweeeeeeet!

FRIDAY, SEPT. 19 You know what we haven’t had for a long time? A ruinously expensive and divisive airport war. Thank God we’ve got Governor Linda Lingle. Today’s Maui News reports that her administration says it can have Kahului Airport’s main runway extended in five years, no sweat. In fact, state officials are so sure they’ve got a done deal they say the old, largely discredited environmental review is still good, so they don’t have to do another. Of course, county officials disagree, saying the state had better go back and do their homework again. Unless you people want to get back in the trenches and start bottling up state hearings, this one looks really bad… During its regular Friday morning jam session, the Maui County Council suddenly announces that councilmember Wayne Nishiki can keep bottling up the Makena development. Woohoo!

SATURDAY, SEPT. 20 Tonight the Sierra Club presents Wailuku attorney Isaac Hall with its prestigious William O. Douglas Award for the 25 years he’s spent fighting to keep Maui as pristine as possible. Among his achievements: getting the U.S. Navy to stop plastering Kahoolawe, keeping the old Makena Road public and eviscerating the Kahului Airport environmental reviews. Considering all the big resort projects still moving through the county and Governor Linda Lingle’s plan to push ahead again with Kahului Airport expansion, Hall’s easily got another 25 years of work ahead of him.

One Man's Ecoterrorist Is Another's Smokey Bear The War on SUVs

NEWS

COVER STORY

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26th — MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29th SALE STARTS at 8:00 am BE THERE EARLY FOR THE BEST SELECTION!

What kind of world would it be if someone set your car ablaze because it guzzled too much fuel? A better one, argues the Earth Liberation Front, a loosely-organized ecoterrorist organization that spraypainted environmentalist graffiti such as "gross polluter" and "fat, lazy Americans" on 30 sport utility vehicles at two car dealerships and set fire to a third on Aug. 22.

Several SUVs and 20 Hummer H2s were destroyed. On Sept.2, 22 more SUVs were trashed at a Houston car dealership.

(Police have arrested a man in connection with the California incident.)

Ecoterrorism expert Bron Taylor of the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh, says that ELF believes “political action is insufficient to bring about the wholesale changes needed." A Los Angeles Times survey found that, even among conservative Republicans, two out of three people believe that the environment is more important than property rights, corporate profits or even creating jobs. Only eight percent of Americans think that global warming is a myth. (The United States produces more greenhouse gases, both per capita and overall, than any other nation, making it largely responsible for climate change.)

The environmental crisis is, hands down, the most important matter facing humanity today. Who cares about peace in the Middle East if the region is under water, stricken by famine or choked by dust storms? Weather systems are becoming increasingly violent and unpredictable, species are going extinct and virgin-growth forests are vanishing at an alarming rate. While smog has diminished somewhat in places like Denver and Los Angeles, air pollution is getting worse nationally. Ohio's EPA, for example, announced that 2002 was the most toxic summer on record in 14 years.

The main reason: SUVs. What should we do about this longignored crisis? Writing letters to the editor and joining The Sierra Club are admirable, but working within the system hasn't stopped the polluters.

Burning SUVs isn't the answer, argues the Sport Utility Vehicle Owners Association of America: "All told, the vandalism will not make any company think twice about producing more SUVs and other light trucks, nor will it shake the tremendous consumer confidence in the vehicles. Instead, the blaze destroyed the property of a small business owner, and put the lives of innocent civil servants in

harm's way."

But SUVs are a national blight, burning 33 percent more gas, generating 30 percent more carbon monoxide and 75 percent more nitrogen oxide than regular cars. SUVs are so popular--they account for more than half of new car sales--that average fuel efficiency reversed a long-term trend by starting to drop beginning in 1987. Since 1990, SUVs have wasted an extra 70 billion gallons of gasoline, costing even more than the war on Iraq. They're the sole reason we dropped out of the Kyoto Protocol to reduce greenhouse gases. SUVs have got to go.

The SUV phenomenon is the creation of an unholy alliance of Congress, Detroit automakers and consumers. The big four automakers have convinced even the legislators they don't own outright that eliminating SUVs would hurt the economy. SUV owners think the 9,000-pound leviathans make them safer than

WHO CARES ABOUT PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST IF THE REGION IS UNDER WATER, STRICKEN BY FAMINE OR CHOKED BY DUST STORMS? passenger cars (though studies have proven they're not), are better at handling snow (untrue), drive off-road (very few SUVs ever leave the pavement), offer extra room for big families (get a minivan instead, dope) and let them see ahead of smaller cars (while blocking the vehicles behind them). The Republicancontrolled Congress has no intention of closing the fuel emissions loophole that lets SUVs pass as "light trucks." And the SUV craze is making Detroit more profitable than ever.

That leaves consumers and dealers as the principal targets of radical environmentalists like the ELF. The idea is to make SUVs as unfashionable, and as scary to own, as fur became after the PETA-inspired spray-paint attacks of the '80s. In an ideal world, American consumers could be convinced to do the right thing through an appeal to logic with public service messages like the "What Would Jesus Drive?" TV campaign, but the kind of people who would buy a car that increases the risk to other motorists in an accident can't be reasoned with. They're selfish and stupid. It's unfortunate that drivers must worry that their SUVs are being targeted by insulting stickers and Molotov cocktails, but one thing's for sure: It couldn't be happening to a more deserving group of people.

Zachary G. Holloway, 20, and a pal were arrested in Springfield, Ill., in September and charged with breaking into one car (and stealing, among other things, a motorcycle helmet) and attempting to break into another. To try to get into the second car, Holloway put on the helmet, stood back from the car, and charged into it, headbutting a window, unsuccessfully, twice.

The two were arrested shortly afterward.

Ms. Jamila Glauber filed a lawsuit against the transit system in Juneau, Alaska, because a driver's attempt to enforce the well-known no-eating rule on a bus (it was a Snickers bar) caused her, she says, at least $50,000 worth of emotional distress (July). And Kenneth Williams, in jail near San Diego, awaiting trial for raping an underage girl, filed a lawsuit against the facility because of the mental stress and anguish and weight-loss caused by finding a fly in his mashed potatoes (June). And the post office in Fulton, Mo., removed a tape dispenser that had long been available for customers to seal packages, because a customer had hurt himself using it and had filed a claim against the Postal Service (June).

A 46-year-old woman was hospitalized in critical condition when she dropped a coin while at a drive-thru window at a McDonald's, then opened her minivan door to retrieve it, taking her foot off the brake, allowing the van to inch forward, trapping her head in the open door, which lodged against a post (Burke, Va., August).

SPENDING QUALITY TIME WITH THE KIDS Police in Avon Park, Fla., charged April Marie Brown, 28, with criminal mischief after she allegedly, at the direction of her son, 12, drove him and a pal around town on a Saturday night as the kids vandalized 11 stop signs, doing more than $1,000 damage. And in September, according to Wichita Falls, Texas, police, Joann Rubio, 31, drove her pickup truck alongside a truck driven by a 19-year-old man, so that her 16-year-old son in the passenger seat could shoot the man; he was hit once, and mother and son were later arrested.

RECURRING THEMES Latest Street Price for a Child: $250 (Judith Ann Garland, 20, was convicted in Baltimore in September of offering a 2-year-old boy because she needed $250 for bail on drug charges.).

ALSO, IN THE LAST MONTH Police decided not to charge Lula Brown for 911 abuse even though she had called the emergency number just to report that a McDonald's tried to charge her for extra barbecue sauce (Avon, Ohio). A fisherman had to be rushed to a hospital by helicopter after the bull shark he had just caught and was posing for photos with bit his arm (Freeport, Texas).

phins and birds that stuff kills every year. And this bunch was just waiting for fresh victims.

Getting rid of it proved to be a formidable challenge, since it easily weighed more than a hundred pounds. It didn’t help matters that it was also wrapped around a sizeable chunk of a’a lava at the water’s edge.

Getting it out of the water was a major undertaking. In fact, it took three people to free it and pull it into an empty kayak.

“I think we might have gotten in over our heads,” joked Maui Kayaks owner Rich Jurgens, as the crew stood in knee-deep water cutting the net off the lava as waves rolled in around them from a south swell.

It was hard work, but it was over in a few minutes. By then the big, ugly mass of driftnet was safely hauled away. Happily there were no marine animals or birds entangled in any of the netting.

This is just an example of some of the debris that was removed this weekend from Maui’s shoreline. A big mahalo goes out to everyone who volunteered to spend their day cleaning up the beaches, as well as those who organized the volunteers. Hopefully all of our ocean users will help out with these clean ups. It does make a difference.

On Maui, there’s a definite perception that locals paddle canoes while tourists— Pacific Northwest people, mainly—are the ones out kayaking. There’s just something so plastic, so artificial about kayaks.

Remember that tourist couple who paddled out in the water—newly wedded husband and wife—but only the husband came back? Said she was eaten by a shark or something. They were kayaking.

But on Saturday, Sept. 20, a bunch of kayakers did something cool. They joined volunteers from over 100 countries in cleaning up and removing trash and debris from our precious coast. It was the 18th annual International Coastal Clean Up, organized worldwide by the Ocean Conservancy. Last year’s clean-up was a massive event, with nearly 400,000 people all over the world pulling over five million pieces of garbage and debris from the coastline.

Locally, Kahului-based Maui Community Workday served to coordinate the clean-up efforts. Groups of residents headed out to over 40 areas of Maui’s shoreline to remove whatever they could find that wasn’t supposed to be there—broken glass, plastic containers, driftnet, big truck tires.

You heard me. Truck tires. In the water. Driftnet, okay. Broken glass, yeah, I see that. But truck tires?

Working on the southern edge of the lava flow that makes up Cape Kinau-between La Perouse Bay (Keoneoio) and Ahihi Bay--a group of veteran kayak guides and kayak tour operators pulled a great deal of trash out of the water. They knew the area intimately, and used that knowledge to find and remove debris from areas that are largely inaccessible from land.

“We pick up trash out here on a daily basis,” said one of the kayak guides, who helped organize the group. “Today was our chance to come out and get the big stuff, the stuff that is too big just to pick up on your own.”

At one point, they found a huge bundle of drift net.

Drift net. If there was ever a better example of man’s inhumanity to sea life, it’s driftnet. Who knows how many fish and dol-

SEPTEMBER 25, 2003

COVER STORY

From stem to stern, the Carthaginian II isn’t much to look at. Rust lines drip down her hull like blood over her black painted-on gun ports.

Rigging cables with frayed ends flap in the breeze. Barnacles encrust the hull just beneath the waterline. The yardarms are crooked. Lines tying her to the dock out front of the Pioneer Inn are caked with slime. In even a light wind, the 83-year-old ship rolls disconcertingly.

A giant wooden wall warning “No Trespassing” bars access to the gangway. Taped to a post near the old ticket booth is a handwritten sign explaining why visitors are no longer allowed to go on board. Like much of the recent history of the Carthaginian II, the sign is painfully contradictory: “Carthaginian CLOSED Permanently— Unsafe due to repairs (on-going).”

The Carthaginian is Lahaina. She’s in just about every postcard, photograph or painting of Lahaina Harbor. She’s like the big L on the hill, the Pioneer Mill smokestack, the old courthouse and the Banyan tree. It’s hard to visualize Lahaina without those landmarks.

A fixture in Lahaina for the last three decades, the Carthaginian is doomed. A year from now, she won’t be moored in Lahaina Harbor anymore. Instead, she’ll be beneath it, sunk just offshore—a new “attraction” for the tourists to dive at or watch from a sightseeing submarine.

There is no way the destruction of a beloved town symbol can be anything but bad. The loss of the Carthaginian represents the most stunning failure of restoration in the 41-year history of the Lahaina Restoration Foundation (LRF).

Set up specifically in 1962 to restore and maintain Lahaina’s cultural antiquities, the Foundation instead neglected the ship’s maintenance, allowing her to decay into a leaky tub.

Look at her today, and you can’t help wondering what keeps her afloat.

Yet in a perverse twist of logic, the LRF says

sinking the Carthaginian will be good for the boat and for Lahaina. “[A]n arrangement has been worked out with Atlantis Submarines, who is willing to relocate the vessel under water off the shores of Lahaina, where she will be preserved for generations to come,” wrote LRF executive director George “Keoki” Freeland in a July 25 press release entitled “Another Chapter in the History of the Carthaginian II.” Relocate? Preserved? Another Chapter?

“The people of Lahaina,” Freeland added, “as well as our visitors, will still be able to visit the Carthaginian II by way of Atlantis Submarines.”

Despite Freeland’s insistence that the LRF lacks the funds to keep the ship afloat, federal income tax records show the Foundation has amassed millions of dollars in assets. The tax records also show other museums owned by the LRF have lost as much, if not more money than the Carthaginian. “[The LRF] hasn’t really maintained it very well,” said George Allan, one of the 10 original crewmembers who brought the Carthaginian to Lahaina 30 years ago. “It’s all rusted through. The rigging is a mess. It’s all a horrendous mess. It will sink there at the dock if they don’t do it themselves.

If they had more money or more volunteers to maintain it, I don’t know. But it was never really important enough to them to get the volunteers.”

Look at LRF webpages and brochures and you’ll see gushing tributes to the boat.

“Much love, dedication, and many skilled hands contributed to the victorious moment when the royal yards were raised and the Brig Carthaginian became the proud centerpiece of Lahaina’s historic legacy,” says an official LRF webpage on the ship. That “proud centerpiece” line appears over and over throughout LRF materials. Another brochure described the

Carthaginian as “the only authentically restored brig in the world.”

The official LRF Charter is unambiguous: “to restore, maintain and preserve the physical and cultural legacies and history of the first capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii.” So preserving the Carthaginian, saving it for future generations should be a no-brainer, right?

Wrong, said Freeland, the LRF’s executive director.

“The Carthaginian is not a genuine historical item,” said Freeland. “It’s a replica of a brigantine. It’s not even a whaling ship.”

While it’s certainly true the ship is neither an authentic brig nor whaling ship, it’s also true the ship has considerable historical value.

The Carthaginian began life as the two-masted schooner Mary in Kiel, Germany in 1920.

Built by the Krupp shipbuilders—the same who launched the Nazi battleship Bismarck—she was one of a class of 10 ships. Of them, only the Mary exists today.

Just 97 feet long with a 22-foot beam and a miniscule 9-foot draft, the Mary weighed 340 tons and was powered by a 275 horsepower Skania Vabis diesel engine. She could make just eight knots in the open sea.

The Mary was small, built under the confines of the restrictive Versailles Treaty, but tough.

She was constructed of an immensely strong steel usually reserved for battleship construc-

boasted to reporters that the ship had a “long lasting quality” and was in such excellent condition that it carried a superior insurance rating.

But today, they tell a different story.

“It was already corroded bad enough when it was 50 years old,” said Freeland. “That’s why it was taken out of service.”

Freeland said the LRF committed an additional “major mistake” when it brought the Komet into Lahaina Harbor. According to Freeland, marine engineers poured concrete ballast into the ship’s hold to keep her steady in the water—a move considered necessary, as the Komet had no keel. While keeping the ship steady, the concrete apparently provided a path for salt air and salt water to corrode the ship’s inner hull.

Freeland then produced a 1998 study by the Santa Cruz-based marine engineering firm Rodgers and Associates concluding that “$7,000,000+++” would be required to make the Carthaginian seaworthy again.

“In other words, we could just build a new ship,” said Freeland. “Over the years we spent about $700,000 on the ship. You can restore several historic sites with that kind of money.”

Let’s recap. The LRF spends $25,000 to bring the Komet—a ship that had absolutely no connection in any way to Lahaina or its whaling past--over from Denmark and, over the last 30 years, another $700,000 to maintain her. Except in this case, “maintain” means “bungle the job so

In 1999, federal income tax records show the Home cost the LRF $70,084—far more than the Carthaginian--and attracted 69,409 visitors. But by 2001, the Home’s expenses had risen to $75,895 while visitors had plunged to just 45,106.

Of course, these numbers pale before the $3.6 million in assets the LRF has managed to acquire.

About $400,000 in cash, savings and investments, another $3 million or so in land, buildings, whatnot. The parking lot behind the Baldwin Home alone brought in $318,485 last year.

Nonetheless, Freeland denied he had any other resources to draw upon to save the Carthaginian.

“We were hoping to get 20, 25 years out of it,” he said. “We got 30. Besides, everything has a finite life.”

On July 25, LRF officials held a surreal sendoff for locals on board. About 60 people gathered aboard the Carthaginian that afternoon to say farewell to the boat. It was the last time members of the public could walk around the deck.

Freeland was there, as were others who were instrumental in getting the Carthaginian to Maui. There were speeches about the ship’s history and 1973 passage and its importance to Lahaina. Freeland spoke eloquently about the boat, stumbling only when talking of what might replace the Carthaginian. A few girls from the Old Lahaina Luau did some hula dancing.

Looking at what’s before him, Walsh’s optimism seems ludicrous. Before he can throw a single cable around the Carthaginian, Walsh needs to get the U.S Environmental Protection Agency’s approval. And that of the U.S. Coast Guard. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has to sign off as well. And the State Department of Land and Natural Resources—both the Aquatic Division and the Boating Division. The county Department of Health has a say, too.

And he’s got studies to do, including a full environmental impact report. Some he can do now; others will have to wait until whale season, when boating activity changes dramatically.

If it seems like too much bother, remember that Walsh will, after all, sink an old steel ship in state waters.

Once all of that is done, and not before, Walsh can bring in marine engineers and do more studies—how to maintain a controlled descent, how to keep her from moving around once she hits the bottom, those kinds of things. Then, at last, they can start filling the old Carthaginian with concrete or other such ballast, tow her out to sea, and cut her loose.

And what’s all this going to cost Walsh?

“Oh boy,” he said. “It is fairly expensive. I don’t think I can get it under $200,000. Maybe it will be as high as $300,000. Hopefully I won’t need to bring in tugs from Honolulu. I want to use vessels from the harbor here. I’d like a com-

“We were hoping to get 20, 25 years out of it,” Freeland said.

“We got 30. Besides, everything has a finite life.” tion. Earl Callicutt, who eventually brought the boat to Maui, said she was unique in the world.

Swedish interests eventually bought the Mary, rechristening her Komet. Mostly she hauled cement through the Baltic Sea, though during World War II she carried Swedish ammunition.

By the early 1970s, the Komet was languishing in Denmark, destined for the scrap yard.

What saved her was the destruction of a movie prop half a world away.

In 1972, the original Carthaginian—a wooden ship refurbished to look like a whaler and used as a prop in the 1966 movie Hawaii—sunk on a reef as she left Lahaina harbor for a Honolulu dry-dock. After a popular outcry demanding a replacement, the LRF sent Callicutt searching.

His travels eventually brought him to Denmark, where he purchased the Komet for $25,000.

Callicutt then skippered the then 53-year-old boat during its 15,000-mile voyage to Maui by way of the Panama Canal. Accounts of the voyage make clear that the crew loved the boat.

Once in Lahaina, the LRF spent the next seven years refitting the Komet. They ripped apart her old pilothouse and radically altered the masts and rigging to make her look like a brig from the old whaling days. They repainted her hull, added museum details and whaling artifacts. In 1980, the newly christened Carthaginian II opened to the public.

For 30 years, the ship floated quietly in Lahaina Harbor—far longer than the original Carthaginian’s six years—as a quaint reminder of Lahaina’s whaling past.

For 30 years, she also rotted and rusted at her moorings. Except to get towed to dry-dock, she never left the harbor. In fact, the rigging LRF volunteers installed back in the late 1970s never once held canvas.

When she arrived in Lahaina, LRF officials fell over themselves acclaiming the ship’s strength and durability. After arriving in Maui, Callicutt

she rots away, becoming a hazard to the vicinity.”

All of this begs the question: If the Mary/Komet/Carthaginian II wasn’t a “genuine historical item,” then why did the LRF pour so much time and effort and money into her for the last 30 years?

“Well,” Freeland said, after pausing a while, “I wasn’t here at that time. But you have to remember it was brought here to replace the first one. The first one was given to us. If someone gives us a whaling ship, what the hell!—even though it was just a movie prop. Then when it sank, people wanted it replaced.”

Recent media accounts quote Freeland as saying that the LRF board “reluctantly decided to replace the Carthaginian II.” But to Maui Time, Freeland said the decision was far more controversial within the Board.

“Our board was split on why we were spending so much money on a ship that wasn’t historic,” he said. “The other half said it was an ‘icon of Lahaina’ and had to be saved.”

We know which side won, mostly by saying the ship had become prohibitively expensive. Yet for an organization that says it’s strapped for cash, it’s got a lot of assets. The 2001 Foundation income tax statement—the most recent available—shows its balance sheet is way out of balance: $3,650,535 in assets, just $18,219 in liabilities.

For the last three years, records show, the Carthaginian has attracted about 40,000 visitors a year. Expenses have gone up, too, though not nearly as bad as LRF officials have said. In 2001, the most recent available year, upkeep on the boat cost $49,884. This was actually down from the previous year’s $53,151.

Indeed, tax records show a similar case could be made for closing the Baldwin Home, which dates to the 1830s. The home, which belonged to Protestant missionary Daniel Baldwin, became part of the LRF’s sphere of influence in the early 1960s.

When it was over, Freeland fired off the ship’s cannon three times. Then visitors placed their leis on the ship’s stern—a traditional act of paying respect to honored dead.

No one, most notably Freeland, will say what—if anything—will replace the Carthaginian.

“We’re in the process of looking for a replacement vessel,” said Freeland. “But you shouldn’t say too much about that because we don’t have an agreement.”

Press accounts have mentioned replacing the Carthaginian with the big but as-yet unfinished Hawaiian Sailing Canoe. “That’s a definite possibility,” Freeland said. “We’ve done very little work with the Hawaiian side of Lahaina history.”

The exact fate of the Carthaginian is similarly in doubt. The ship will be sunk, certainly, but no one really knows where. One likely spot is about a quarter mile off Puamana Park at the southern end of Lahaina in 90 feet of water.

What isn’t in doubt is that sinking the Carthaginian will destroy the ship. Wreck it, crush it, smash it. Ships were meant to ride over the water, not beneath it. The hull will collapse, the steel will rust and sea life will move in and completely take over.

“We’re happy it’s going to stay here in Lahaina,” Freeland said in a July 26 Honolulu Advertiser story. “But instead of being an attraction in town, it will be one that’s underwater.”

And as James Walsh of Atlantis Submarines is finding out, that will be no easy task. His company is now in charge of the old boat. It’s their job to sink the Carthaginian. Their reward is another, potentially exciting and lucrative dive spot for their subs.

“We’re going through a lengthy process,” he said when asked if he was on schedule. “We’re just at the initial stages. I’m an optimist to a fault, and if we can get it underwater by July of next year, that would be an amazing thing.”

Stays here. As though there’s a real difference between sinking her a thousand feet off shore or a thousand miles. Once she’s gone, she’s gone.

As for Allan, who owes the last 30 years he’s spent on Maui to the Carthaginian, he says he has no plans to visit the ship once she’s sunk.

“I’ve got too much to do than go out in submarines,” he said. “I only rarely get to the beach anymore. If they invite us to go, I guess. But I don’t particularly want to see it at the bottom.

I’d rather have it be there one day, then gone the next. Looking at it under water would be like looking at a body at a funeral.” MTW

Situated high on the slopes of Haleakala across the street from the landmark Morihara Store, Café 808 is all grit and no glamour. It’s an out-ofthe-way place to catch a fast, fair-priced meal. If you need a new scene, Café 808 allows you to retain some anonymity until you, too, become a regular. Or maybe you want a long drive knowing the destination is in a town that boasts of a cooler, drier air.

I was somewhat expecting an upcountry version of Starbucks, and was more than pleasantly surprised. The menu is handwritten in erasable marker on a board, random bulletins and flyers decorate the walls and counter, and saloon-style lamps with ceiling fans hang from above. The general décor looks like a converted barn.

My breakfast companion, Elaine, and I perused the board, trying to decide what to order while countless patrons slid by to pick up their phoned-in orders.

This seems to be a popular thing with Café 808. Surrounding us at the tables and booths were construction crews on break, old-timers with newspaper in hand, moms enjoying some peace now that school is back in session, and not one tourist! Let’s hope the Maui Revealed guys don’t find out about this place.

“Local diner style” would best sum up the selection, and as can be expected, it’s all offered at a very fair price. In the spirit of upcountry I selected the Country Breakfast: Portuguese sausage, two eggs, and hash browns. Sure, it’s pretty basic, but this isn’t the Ritz and I was hungry.

They delivered, too--the sausage is some of the saltiest and most flavorful I’ve found anywhere. Brunch wouldn’t be complete without coffee, and while Café 808 is no coffee shop, it ironically brews up a gourmet cup of caffeine.

Elaine ordered the Loco Moco, but sheepishly asked for her hamburger patty medium-rare. Oops. You can imagine the look she got! Forgive her, she’s new to the island. At least now she knows the ham-

Kula food burger comes however they want to cook it, smothered in gravy on top of eggs and rice.

Still, it was sloppy like a Moco should be, and we were both thoroughly stuffed.

Café 808 also offers Belgium waffles, pancakes, “green eggs and salmon,” fried rice, and--on the weekends only--eggs benedict.

Lunch and dinner have a hearty selection of typical dishes to choose from: six different burgers, four salads, soup, saimin and an assortment of local plate lunches like the ever-popular chicken katsu, kal bi style shortribs, teriyaki beef, even curry or beef stew. If it’s a sandwich you crave, Café 808 has your standard deli meats, a Reuben, a tuna melt, even corned-beef hash. About the only thing missing was Spam.

In the likely event that you get lost in Kula, you can find yourself a down-home diner-style meal at Café 808. Yeah, it’s a hike to get there from most parts of the island, but once there you are assured of an honest meal at a place that has steadily become a Kula favorite.

Café 808 is located at 4566 Lower Kula Road. Call 878-6874. Open daily, breakfast is served 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. MTW

BY SOPHIA FARIDI

From the Laugh Coach Pat Masumoto’s Mad Cloak explores the lighter side of social injustice

Mad Cloak’s Kavika (Derek Nakagawa) and Josephine (Jennifer Fahrni) Not too many people can write a funny play about stuff like domestic violence, but Pat Masumoto can. She’s last year’s recipient of the “Maui Woman Making a Difference” award and owner of Wailuku’s Gallerie Ha. Known throughout many of Maui’s social circles for the “laugh aerobics” classes she teaches at the gallery—she’s even been dubbed an official “laugh coach”--Masumoto is now trying her hand at theater. The premier of Mad Cloak, written and produced by Masumoto, debuts Thursday, September 25 at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center in Kahului.

Initially the play began as a piece she wrote for an open reading night she holds once a month at Gallerie Ha. But turning “Mad Cloak” into a full-fledged play came out of what Masumoto calls “her need to be a truth junkie.” As a breast cancer survivor and a strong advocate for woman’s rights, she has a lot to say about a lot of things. Writing this play was an opportunity to send a message while doing what she loves so much--making people laugh. Masumoto says it’s difficult to point out a specific theme for the play but it deals with some of the most pressing social issues facing people today, particularly domestic violence.

What makes this production unique is that it is filled to the rim with humor. The play takes what Masumoto calls a “sexy, bold look” at the lives of five Honolulu artists who are also friends. The play spans over three years of their lives as they face the realities of local life.

The show features some of Maui’s premier “up and coming” actors and actresses. Jennifer Fahrni and Robert Angelo play Josephine and Al, a couple in the midst of a relationship on its way down a darker path. Josephine, a successful painter and Al, famous syndicated columnist, share the stage with another couple, Bella and Adam, played by Ivy Cecila White and Billy Mithoefer. Bella is a wealthy jazz singer who lives happily with her gorgeous drummer boyfriend Adam but secretly longs for a “taste of the wild side.”

Awwww yeaaaaaaaah!

No true comedy production would be complete without a comic relief hero. Derek Nakagawa plays Kavika, an improv artist and Josephine’s best friend, who serves as resident “Papaya Princess.” I guess we’ll have to wait and see just what exactly that means. Barbara Sedano plays the voice of Lizzy the Lizard, a luminous character we don’t see but hear often. The cast even includes some real life police officers direct from Maui’s force.

The play has a local flare that will ring home with those who know what it’s like to deal with the highs and lows of island life.

French director Nathalie Spilmont brings her theater expertise to the stage. From Paris to Maui, Spilmont is now Artistic Director of Salon des Arts in Makawao. She recently directed the highly acclaimed No Exit.

“It’s a homegrown production,” say Masumoto. “It’s a passionate drama that’s witty, shocking and liberating.”

We watch as one woman is leaving violence, another is going toward it. John Langs, artistic director of the historic Iao Theater, says it’s important for men to go see this show because it gives insight into the world of women that men don’t really get to see or understand.

Masumoto says there isn’t just one good reason to see this show. There’s many. “It has high entertainment value, it uses local culture as a homegrown production, it deals with important topics like domestic violence, it helps supports some great charities…” and she adds, “This play is good!! After all, I’m the laugh coach. I can play with anything!”

Some of the subject matter is a little too controversial for young children so parents are suggested to leave the kids at home. A meet and greet with the cast and open panel discussion will be held after the show on Thursday. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Women Helping Women and the American Cancer Society.

Mad Cloak runs Friday through Sunday at the MACC. Tickets are $18. Call the box office at 242-7469. MTW

Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore are newlyweds who purchase a Brooklyn duplex that comes with a 100-year-old rent controlled tenant-from-hell in this not-sofunny comedy directed by Danny DeVito (Throw Mama From The Train). Alex (Stiller) is so distracted by his domineering upstairs neighbor Mrs. Connelly (Eileen Essell) that he can barely work on his nearly due novel, and his wife Nancy (Barrymore) soon loses her job because of the crusty old lady's shenanigans. Death by murder seems the only remedy as the hesitant couple attempt to solve their privacy problem with some brutality. But the slapstick amusement that ensues doesn't go far enough to pry out many laughs. The feigned black comedy fumbles and falters because the story doesn't get black enough in the face of Stiller and Barrymore's merely passable comedic screen chemistry.

Justin Theroux (Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle) plays Alex's friend and rival novelist Cooper Sinclair and, although he only appears in a few brief scenes, he draws focus like nobody's business. Theroux's fizzing presence begs a question about his scarcely tapped potential to invigorate such a comedy as a leading man instead of as a secondary character. For all of Ben Stiller's painted-on attempts at playing the easily duped straight man, he lacks the funny bone humor of, say, a Peter Sellers or even the quirky appeal of an Adam Sandler.

Theroux, however, is constantly pulling something from his bag of tricks. You can't take your eyes off of him because you know there's going to be some intangible surprise in his facial expression or vocal delivery that will ping from the screen.

There's tediousness in Ben Stiller's performance as Alex that further strains the script's already aggravating story arc. Mrs. Connelly is a vile little woman capable of accusing her rescuers of sexual assault when Alex and Nancy resuscitate her with CPR after she chokes on a chocolate candy.

We accept that Alex is a sucker for not ignoring the spry old lady, or soundproofing his bedroom, but we cheer for the couple to do away with this repugnant creature who snoops on them having sex, and loudly plays her television all night preventing them from getting any sleep. It's insult to injury that Ms. Connelly conducts musical practice on weekends with a brass band of fellow elderly women. This dim reference to The Ladykillers (1955), wherein a group of bank robbers pose as musicians while plot-

Duplex ★★★★★

Resuscitation or... sexual assault?! ting to kill their landlady, is a artificial subplot that goes nowhere and is indicative of the film's inability to juxtapose more than a couple of ideas at a time. A glaring problem with the script is that there aren't enough layers of simultaneous action going on to push the characters' motivations.

Audiences have come to expect a certain standard of facetious and cynical excellence from movies directed by Danny DeVito (see The War of The Roses) but it's misleading that Duplex is being sold as a "Danny DeVito film."

DeVito took over directional duties on the movie and clearly relied too much on his actors to compensate for holes in the script written by Larry Doyle and John Hamburg. Danny DeVito has a devilish eye for satire and needed to have a stronger hand in shaping Duplex into a grotesquerie of cruelty. We get a taste of it in a scene when Alex and Nancy admit to each other various independent ideas they have about how they'd like to kill Mrs. Connelly. The couple revels, in blunt descriptions, the barbaric methods they'd like to use finish off the old biddy upstairs. It's the only time in the movie that we get to savor the depth of revulsion Alex and Nancy have for Mrs. Connelly.

Mrs. Connelly's exasperating behavior has properly tutored the audience to view her as a person who's gone too far and this young couple of New York newlyweds is just our ticket to seeing justice served. But the movie falls short of delivering any such satisfaction in its slapdash finale.

Duplex is another of those movies where you kick yourself for going because you already saw the whole thing when you watched the teaser trailer. That's probably one of the worst insults an audience can give a movie. "I saw in 90 seconds what it took 90 minutes and ten bucks to see again." Rated PG-13 97 mins. MTW

OPEN RANGE - (R) - Western - Following the day-todayencounters of four cattle herders who roam the countryside without owning a particular piece of land, or "freegrazers", living in the final years of the Wild West, this film tells the story of how they eventually team up to rid a burgeoning remote town, Harmonville, from the machinations of a ruthlessly evil rancher, who forms a sort of makes the laws and rules, and enforces them using scare tactics and brute force. Stars Kevin Costner, Robert Duvall and Annette Bening.

DAVID BOWIE “REALITY” I’m a “greatest hits” kinda guy when it comes to Bowie. I mean, I know he’s an icon and I totally grew up with songs like “Rebel Rebel”, “Suffragette City” and one of my favorite songs of all time, “Fame”, co-written by John Lennon, but I’d never gone out and bought any of his 25 studio releases. I did, however, pick up Best of Bowie last year and it kicks ass. So when I saw his new one (the 26th!), I thought “what the hell” there’s gotta be a couple of good songs here, right? Well, I was right. Having gravitated to Bowie’s harder or more “rockin’” songs as a kid, I naturally enjoyed the edgier moments here. “New Killer Star” and “Pablo Picasso” are best enjoyed at high volume and would be my choices to lure in a young, new crowd. The melancholy “Days” and the George Harrison penned “Try Some, Buy Some” are standouts as well. Bowie fans should be stoked, but the next one I get will probably be Best of Bowie--Part Two when it’s released in 2015. --ISO/Colombia Records 2003 [SPIKE FUQUA]

PENNYWISE “FROM THE ASHES” I knew exactly what to expect with this new record, as dependability is Pennywise’s strong suit. They come through with fourteen new songs that get the job done as surely as a reliable old friend. There are no surprises here, but that’s ok because Pennywise is the kinda band I don’t wanna see “grow” too much, if it aint broke don’t fix it. There are plenty of “Bro Hymn” moments where you get to sing with the band and the velocity of their frenetic assault is equaled by their tight delivery. The music invokes summer, old school vans, and backyard BBQ’s while the empowering lyrics coach self-reliance. The CD comes with a bonus DVD of Pennywise home movies, so this latest effort is a sure-fire winner! --Epitaph Records 2003 [SPIKE FUQUA]

LISA GERRARD “WHALE RIDER” (SOUNDTRACK) Lisa Gerrard is a former member of the mainly-‘80s goth/world music band, Dead Can Dance. Recently, she has been receiving high accolades for her contributions to the underrated soundtrack genre by greatly contributing to the tone of such hyper-intense films as Gladiator and The Insider.

Gerrard is adept at utilizing her otherwordly voice, floaty guitar lines, deep drums, moody keys, dulcimer and synthesized strings to create an atmosphere befitting of such visually strong movies. In Whale Rider, Gerrard manages to capture the dreamy, ethereal quality the film evokes, yet without much use of her distinctive vocal style.

Generally, listening to this soundtrack just makes me recall the great movie it was made for, which is certainly not a bad thing, although I don’t know if it really stands on its own as an album. All in all, a great meditation CD--if you’re into that sort of thing. –4AD Records [SAM CAMPOS]

CIBELLE “CIBELLE” Cibelle boasts one of the sweetest voices coming out of Brazil. Following in the success of Bebel Gilberto, she brings north the mellow, soulful grooves of Brazil’s cutting edge Bossa Nova electronica scene. A lovely little nymph, Cibelle sings beautifully in Portuguese and English. She masterfully composes the music and writes the lyrics for most of her first album’s 11 enticing tracks, which highlight excellent percussion, as well as inventive sampling, turntabling and ambient sounds. On the gorgeous “I’ll Be” Cibelle coos about giving her man a daughter. The funky “Hate” reveals the dark love/hate aspects of her relationship that are in contrast to the fun melody. “Waiting” features a strong bass line that holds together a myriad of imaginative sounds while she contemplates time. Her sensuality and inspiration easily come through in the Portuguese lyrics as well. Cibelle is a multi-talented Brazilian bohemian with a bright future. -- Six Degrees Records [JOE GATTO]

VARIOUS ARTISTS “ARABIAN TRAVELS 2” New technology has given people access to new musical opportunities.

People can easily combine the traditional with the modern in fascinating ways. Six Degrees Records continues to highlight this phenomenon through its Traveler Series, releasing diverse compilations that expertly combine long-established music with the most sophisticated new techniques in music production. Arabian Travels 2 features excellent DJs from the Middle East and around the world mixing hypnotic dub sounds and percussion loops with the some of the finest live performers from Egypt and Iran, among other countries. Sufi mysticism and time-honored music is subtly fused to the modern by Turkish born DJ Mercan Dede and Samsara Sound System comes through with an enthralling Middle Eastern dub on “Gatha.” --Six Degrees Records [JOE GATTO] MTW

ARIES: Even though you’re normally a pioneering Lone Ranger type, you still need the company of Trigger and Tonto. The new moon inspires peacemaking, negotiations, partnerships and romance. Pour on some niceness.

TAURUS: Your abilities as a beautifier will be taken to task. Help someone else look good beside yourself. Parties that have a somewhat reckless and energetic theme are sending invitations. Your own personal health could use some attention with the new moon.

GEMINI: Heartfelt enthusiasm will give you reason to celebrate. You’re tired of staying at home playing the introvert. You want to get your groove on and find someone to love. The new moon gives you the creative juice to lubricate your strategy.

CANCER: Your comfy, cozy, nurturing nature takes over. It’s a good time to be a homebody or a couch potato. The new moon highlights your imagination, dreams and intuition. Be an interior decorator, a historian or a real estate agent.

LEO: View the world as a local. Be happy with things that are closer at hand. Siblings and established friends are more in focus. The new moon encourages short trips, communiqués, information gleaning and enjoying your environment. What makes you unique?

VIRGO: It’s time for recovery and discovery.

The new moon helps to illuminate your need for material goods. Stay with the practical and leave the luxury items for the foolhardy. Keep working on increasing your economic prowess.

Your services are needed.

LIBRA: Laugh and be happy--Libra time is here! The new moon in your sign highlights popularity, romance, adventure and new beginnings. Enjoy the sweet fruits of the season.

Exercise comes easier when you’re dancing, playing team sports or working out with a friend.

SCORPIO: Creative energy returns to you like a typhoon. Get ready to be wet with karma, imagination and vivid dreams. Your lust level could get out of control. You’ve never been one to want to be controlled. The new moon strengthens your intuition.

SAGITTARIUS: Work’s been keeping you busy. It’s time to let your hair down and live a little. The new moon highlights parties and social gatherings. Be aware of the needs of male members of your household. Plan now for the future.

CAPRICORN: It’s time to define the kind of worker you really are. Career opportunities increase with the onset of the new moon.

Partners will share their opinion on what they see is happening in regards to you, your talents and your occupation.

AQUARIUS: The heat of transformation is over. Breathe a deep sigh of relief. Your luck is about to change for the better. The new moon brings opportunities for travel, education and deep experiences. Learn a new language, take a trip or teach a lost art.

PISCES: Personal power is in your reach.

Your strength is restored. The new moon focuses on transformation, sex, death, other people’s property and occult studies. The only thing certain is change. Take nothing for granted. Thank those who have helped you.

BY SAM CAMPOS

Why is it everywhere I go, I know the sound guy?

Last weekend, while hanging with my boss at a canoe regatta on Wailea Beach, I noticed my friend John manning the sound for the PA system. Poor guy was about as happy as I was to be working so early on a Sunday, but I killed my bad attitude by hopping into the Four Seasons canoe for a rigorous paddle that would leave me sore for nearly a week. (Happily sore, though, Anthony, honest!)

One particular Friday, another friend and I were coaxed into a late night rendezvous at Longhi’s in Lahaina.

Thanks to my pal Sean—you guessed it, the sound guy--I received preferential treatment from the door Nazis and whisked my way into the audibly happening one-night-aweek club.

Throngs of the fashionably single bumped and grinded their way into oblivion. Crazy Fingers haughtily flirted with the trendy crowd as they performed their most danceable grooves and the attractive female vocalists sang circles around Top 40 tunes with gusto. The band’s sexy male vocalist, Sam, lifted his shirt to expose his taut stomach in a familiar but effective maneuver that made all the little dancing girls swoon.

It made me recall a time several years ago, when I was fresh on the island and Crazy Fingers performed at an employee Christmas party for Compadres in Lahaina.

A lot of stuff happened but I don’t remember it because I ended up very drunk. Needless to say, I was so inebriated that I actually fell into the microphone Sam was using.

What a class act, eh? So full of poise—so much style and grace. So… well, drunk. And yet, that did not stop said vocalist from asking for my phone number later that night.

Nor me from giving it.

Ah, youth.

On another night, my roommate Rudi and I were vaguely disturbed by the innocent singing of a nine-yearold kid waiting outside Foodland in Lahaina. The spunky tyke was belting out the indelible words of a popular Ginuwine nightclub anthem, “Have you ever seen a chick in the club with a drink in the cup--Booty shakin’ like hell, yeah!” Um, the kid is nine.

We hit the races this past weekend. The drag races, that is.

My friend and I perused the many souped-up Chevys, hot rods and motorcycles at Maui Raceway Park off of the Mokulele Highway. We were really impressed by one racing vehicle in particular--a bright yellow ’67 VW bus that the announcer called “the box that rocks!” And, it was driven by Bob Rock—you know, platinum-selling album producer of Metallica, Motley Crüe, Aerosmith and American HiFi, to name just a few. Yeah, another sound guy!

But my weekend wasn’t over. On yet another too-early Sunday morning, I raced (or so I thought) my cruiser to meet my friend Amy who was crazy enough to be running in the 33rd Annual Maui Marathon. By the time I caught up with her, panting and struggling to remove the lens cap on my camera so that I could take a picture of her running towards me, she would pass me by. We pathetically repeated this scenario over and over again, kinda like a Keystone Cops episode. The best I could do was get several shots of her ass. She did manage a hearty “I’m ready for a beer!” over her shoulder as she ran past the 22nd mile marker.

In lieu of finishing the race with Amy, I went to pick up my more nocturnal friend, Jen, at Gaby’s Pizza in Lahaina. Not one to be left out, she ran across the closedroad/marathon lane on Front Street in high heels and a skirt, with Philly Cheesesteak in one hand, Gatorade in the other, as she exclaimed, “Look, I’m running in the marathon too! And I’m still drunk!” MTW
