We been busy at the shop and here’s some funny shit that goes down here.

*Anthony tattoed his family while they were visiting him from the Big Island.

*One half of Anthony’s huge family…(from left to right)…La’akea, “Doobie” Debbie, Anthony III, Anthony IV, Haweo.

*Nate came in to get his ass fondled again. He added Homer and Bender, and Stewy. He has not problem dropping his pants for anyone…..must be a bad habit he can’t let go….I guess that’s what happen when u are the reciever, hehe.

*Jason Sam Fong….the ultimate “shit talker” came in to get more ink done….I love putting him through some pain. It was hard to do this tattoo because I was laughing sooooo much.

*I told her to straddle the chair….I guess Ryan Chun, the “burnt Korean” thought I was talking to him. “I said straddle the chair…not the customer”.

*Phil aka “grimace”, “Barney”, “Grape Ape”, he is the Grape model for “Fruit of the Loom”…..haha. I heard of the syaing….”yo, you’re soooo black you ‘re turning purple”…haha, but this takes the cake. Ryan was putting Phil through some major pain, so I called 911 and reported a “black on black” crime….can we all just get along.

*For those of you that constantly ask me for photos of my son Dane. Here he is….now 5 months old.

*Nathan came in to get a Mario tattoo. Yeah , we thought cool….errrrr, on your ass Nathan …really? I always liked Mario and the gang, now I’m having second thoughts and even thinking of getting rid of my Wii. Nahhhh, not that bad but Mario just went to shit….What makes it even worse Nathan last name is Brown…Mr.Brown eye…I guess he is gonna get a pirate next. Chris was getting clowned for that all night.

*Libra sporting a Team USA BAsketball jersey shirt…..#9…best number…but it was also Jordan’s number during the Olympics.

*Just when you think you’ve seen it all…check out the new JACKASS 3D trailer.

*I took this picture with A’mare in Las Vegas in 2008.

*Tyrone is our Jamba Juice guy. Eye guess he can see us now.

*Looks like Anthony pissed his pants. Haha, that or someone pissed on him.

*April Stoltz of “SINDICATION HAWAII” clothing store stopped by the shop to get some ink. Billy did a “Forever Young” memorial piece. Yeah, we all wish we can be forever young…well, i wish my body would stay that way…oh well, such is life. We all act young though, hehe.

*Looks like Chris is trying to “get aHEAD” in this world. haha, greatest blackmail picture.

*I guess she is not falling for the blackmail thing…..I am her number one fan…haha.

As expected….it wasn’t New York Knicks….it was to the Miami Heat. Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh will also be there. Watch out for the 3 headed monster.

*Lebron turned his back on everyone!!!!!

*The triple threat!!!! Holy shiatsu!!! Beast’s in the East!!! The Cavs owner was a crybaby bitch about the whole thing.

Read his letter that he wrote:

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his “decision” unlike anything ever “witnessed” in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.

You simply don’t deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

“I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE”

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our “motivation” to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that’s simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown “chosen one” sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And “who” we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called “curse” on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former “King” will be taking the “curse” with him down south. And until he does “right” by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day….

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue….

Dan Gilbert
Majority Owner
Cleveland Cavaliers

*What a crybaby!! I guess no matter how much money you have, spoiled is spoiled. If he took all that money that Lebron was making him and gotten more stars to surround Lebron …..all this would not even be a factor. Dan Gilbert should very well know that its a business and Lebron wants to win. He could have taken the money instead. Now, lets see if any other stars would want to play for that crybaby, knowing that if you leave your owner will talk shit about you. We all knew for a long time that there was a huge chance that Lebron was gonna leave in the summer of 2010. Mr crybaby should have gotten better players and not “they used to be good” players. Ahhhhh enough about that clown….at least it looks like there is a team that could take out everyone in the NBA…especially the Lakers…..no worries my Knicks will still be very bad.

*Bill was very upset that Lebron left the Cavs…he had some tears in his eyes before this pic…..nah, I actually had a pretty good conversation about this and I told him I would photoshop tears on his pic….too lazy as always, so lets just say he was crying. hehe.

* This dude was passed out drunk in our parking lot. Chris saw him boozing it up right before this.

*Heather, obviously a big “Twilight” fan, got some bite marks tattooed on her by Jenn Hardin. It looks sick!!! The movie on the other hand…oh my god!!!  Jacob and Edward ohhhhh….yeah right. I actually just watched the first one on HBO the other night……no comment.

*I personally retired Michael Jordan again.

*Big Kurt Swanson was getting inked by everyone in the shop. I told him that I wanted to do something. I picked this little creation. Almost everyone else did a different version of a skull. I love the weird shit!! It was pretty big, because his arm is about as big as my leg.

I got mine…now go get yours!!! Its pretty damn sick. When you allunimate the light feature, there is a red shaka sign that glows as well. And NO….I didn’t write all that stuff above.

MEANWHILE….Back at the shop……

*Raphael’s coming out party…..

*Such a beautiful red for Raphy…..haha, it was his 21st birthday also. Haha, nah, Raphael came in because his girl got his lips inked on her body. Lucas did warn him to make sure I did not see him doing this…..well, I guess he failed and this is the result.

*Natalie’s Cherry Blossoms.

*This pic is soooooo funny. Joel looks like he is 8ft tall, sitting next to Aaron. I think he is actually 6′4″.

*Handsome buggah….NICK MITA.

*The newly wed Cori Mita.

Congratulations Nick and Cori. This is the very first wedding that I went to that NOBODY had any dirt or bad things to say. I normally can make fun of just about anyone. However, when it comes to Nick, he is a complete good human being. I can’t even try to make fun of this guy. It was a very beautiful wedding.

Thanks to Brady Oshiro for providing these photos for me. Brady is one of the boys too, he changed from a surf photographer to a wedding guy. He does some great stuff.

Brady has a good eye for art and it really shows in his photos.

*Kobe Bryant was by far the best player in this series. His determination, competitive spirit, and will to win was shown in this finals. I hate the Lakers, but  Kobe is pretty damn awesome.

*The Celtics came in as a great team and was a great team in defeat. To those that say “Celtics Suck”, can pretty much kiss my ass. You all know that I am a huge Knick fan, but I can recognize a good team…well, cause the Knicks has been real shitty the fast few years. But the Celts was the 5th seed in the east and made a huge run and had people thinking they might actually win. I sure every LA fan was a bit worried when the Celtics was up by 11 points in the 3rd qtr. This was a great Championship series!!! Now the next question is where is Lebron James gonna play next year. For me, it is Who are the NY Knicks gonna overpay next season.

Haha, the Boston Celtics are now at a 3-2 win advantage over the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Championship game.

*Celtics bench players have been stellar. Especially these two guys, Glenn “Big Baby” Davis and Nate Robinson…former NY Knick player.

* I LOVE  seeing Kobe Bryant looking like this….Why is it that Lakers are the only team that hears the chant…”BEAT LA!!”….Before you numb nuts answer me with a wise ass remark like, “oh, because they are the only LA team”…..but you never hear “Beat the Celtics” or “Beat the Spurs” or any other team. I think that its because Lakers have the MOST bandwagon fans of any other team in sports….maybe Yankee’s or Red Sox, I’ll leave that for  another discussion.

*CONGRATULATIONS to the following teams!!!

*HPU Womens Softball team was the NCAA Division II National Champions!!!

*The UH Womens Softball Team won their way to the Super Regional World Series. However, they lost to Arizona. But I think they got a lot of recognition and will get a lot of  local and mainland recruits.

*MLB player, Ken Griffey Jr. retired after 21 years in the league. I loved watching him play the game. Jr. had one of the sweetest swings and could play in the outfield like no other.

*New York Knicks…suck. I think that will be his first words, haha. Nah, we will get a great player at the start of July. So maybe he will be a Knick fan like his pops.
