: So who is it? I got my suspects, hah.
:
: **here's a story i wasn't going to
: say anything about. but it's been
: bothering me a lot. while kimura-san
: and i were in the parking lot that
: morning checking the waves, this
: gaigin surfer who was also checking
: the waves yelled something to
: kimura-san while he was on the phone
: talking to satoru-san. kimura-san
: didn't understand english so i
: looked over. i swore i heard him
: yelling "hey, why don't you
: guys call everybody?" what?? i
: really thought this guy was my
: friend or something so i walked up
: to say hi. it turned out he wasn't
: my friend so i asked him again
: nicely "what did you just
: say?" i knew he was surprised
: that i spoke english but he had the
: balls to say it again "why are
: you guys calling everybody?" i
: went from smiley face to angry face.
: first of all, we weren't calling
: anybody. and if somebody yelled at
: me for calling satoru-san or
: kazubo-san, something is wrong. if
: it was the 5 years ago kirby, my
: fist would have flown into his mouth
: in a split second. but because i'm
: all about peace and happiness these
: days, i turned around and walked
: away. by head was boiling inside and
: i was pissed because that's not the
: mensore spirit i'm used to. if a
: local told me that, it's cool. but
: for a foreigner, or gaijin telling
: me that, it wasn't cool. it was
: bothering me for the rest of the
: trip because one surfer is making
: people feel not welcomed to one of
: the most welcoming places in the
: world. will i forget what happened?
: probably not. what will happen if i
: see him again? that all depends. i'm
: just going to put the ball in his
: hands. if he says something like
: that to me again, i'm going to let
: myself go. if we're in the parking
: lot, he better duck. if we're in the
: water, he better be able to hold his
: breath longer than me. i thought
: about it a lot and i'm not just
: doing it for myself, i'm doing it
: for the okinawan people. what if
: he's going around doing that too all
: japanese surfers around okinawa? i
: get pissed even thinking about it. i
: won't stand around letting one
: gaigin ruin the mensore image that
: took centuries to build...
:
Hey man this guy is a dumb a@#. Doesn't matter if he is gaigin or not...stupid is stupid....I see idiots all the time of all backgrounds and nationalities. In or out of the water you will come in contact with people that bring everyone else down and screw up the positive vibe. I agree, I probably would have wanted to bust him in the face...if we went around kicking ass everytime we ran into a dumb ass like that we would be fighting everyday at every surf break.
Aloha.
