keoni kai lucas

Fragments from 2008-04-11

Angsty midnight wallowing interrupted by text from friend on Kauai. Haven’t seen since graduation (Kapaa Class of 88); feels like yesterday. # Of course when one hears from old friends, we have to catch up on who died. RIP Keoni Lucas, formerly of Haena. This sucks: http://is.gd/5nI # Wrote all night between three blog posts (only one of which I actually finished) and a long-deferred essay on the uneasy politics of Hawaii. # RIP Keoni Kai Lucas: http://tinyurl.com/623ctc Includes YouTube clip f read

ALT.NET - Day 2

And so Day 2 comes to a close. One of the biggest problems with this conference is that at any given time I will want to attend 2–3 simultaneous sessions. Fortunately, the open spaces format allows anyone at anytime to float (I think the term is “be a butterfly” or “be a bumble bee”). I did this in a few sessions to maximize the amount of sessions I could attend. We started out at Ruby’s Diner for breakfast. I arrived at the event to see people looking at the schedule wall. It’s really read

An ode to the knuckleball, a truly screwy pitch. Few pitchers are able to throw the knuckler, giving those who can a cult-like status. It generally requires very large fingers. As Hall of Famer Willie Stargell explained it, "Throwing a knuckleball for a strike is like throwing a butterfly with hiccups across the street into your neighbor's mailbox". Yankees third baseman Wade Boggs once used the knuckleball to retire the side in an inning during a rare appearance on the mound. When he's got h read

Butterfly with hiccups

From ESPN: Jim Caple visits R.A. Dickey, acolyte of the mysterious and increasingly scarce art of the knuckleball. Dickey is not just a guy trying to make the majors on a freak pitch, he's also a freak of nature. In 2006 I used my last-round designated-wacky pick on him in our fantasy baseball draft; although I didn't really expect him to tear up the American League, I suffered real pangs of sympathy when he made the worst start in living memory and was hustled down to Triple-A faster than you c read

Finding the T & A in V & A

The Club Troppo team took one look at Cornelis van Haarlem's Venus & Adonis and captioned it, thus: Venus and Adonis - interesting how ideals of female beauty have changed so radically, from rugby league front row forward with manboobs to anorexic, while the male stereotype hasn’t really changed at all. Why? Discuss. So, this one, is for the Missing Link Daily boys... Another take on Venus, this one by Titian. And, at the risk of comin' over all Sister Wendy on youse all... I was read

Independent No 6712 by Radian

*=anag, []=dropped, <=reversed The Independent continued its trend of trying out less well-known compilers for the Monday puzzle. Radian was another new compiler for me, although I don’t know if it’s actually a debut crossword or not. The theme was plants, so how well you fared with the puzzle depended to an extent on how green-fingered you are.
