The King of Online Travel

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

It's official. I am the King of Online Travel. OK, so it's a meaningless title cause it's self proclaimed and nobody really cares, but I just got the sickest deal for a weekend trip to San Jose - that I booked for a good friend's wedding (Congrats Tom!) - and I ...

Wowie In Maui - Part III

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

In this third and final part in the Wowie in Maui series, we start our adventures in the clouds. After soaring through the air at Skyline Eco Adventures last month, we head to the highest of elevation at nearby Haleakala National Park to get a different perspective on heights, this ...

Wowie In Maui - Part II

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

We did nothing but feed our faces in the last one di'in't we? And nooo, it wasn't due to the "munchies" silly. It was simply because it was all *I* did during my westerly travels in Maui. But trust..., if you are patient enough, I'll make like Sean Kingston and ...

Wowie In Maui - Part I

Friday, February 1st, 2008

No, the "wowie" in the title is not what you think, Cheech. I'm actually referring to all of the exciting things you can do while exploring the beautiful island of Maui. And in true World Wide Ed fashion, let's take the logical approach and break this thang down by sections, ...

See and Eat Seattle - Part II

Saturday, December 1st, 2007

OK class, when we last left off, we ate up Seattle favorites like Piroshky, Piroshky, Le Panier, Beecher's Handmade Cheese Cafe, and Salumi's. This month, we'll be exploring Paseo's Caribbean Restaurant, Umi Sake House and Salty's on Alki, but before then, your homework assignment please. Huh? You didn't do what? Don't ...

See and Eat Seattle - Part I

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

Ever notice that if you combine the words See and Eat, you (almost) get Seattle? Not quite sure what "tle" stands for just yet, but gimme some time and I'll figure it out. For now, let's just go with what nature, er, make that Doc Maynard has given us when ...

We Do It Big Island Style

Monday, October 1st, 2007

When you think "island style," you think Hawaii and our innate, laid back way of life. After two recent trips to the Big Island of Hawaii, I quickly discovered that we ain't got nuthin' on 'em. This here is true, island style living and I'm about to show how you ...

Kau Kau Kauai - Part 3

Thursday, March 1st, 2007

Well, we've finally made it gang. The 3rd and final part in our Kau Kau Kauai series. Please! Hold back your tears! In part 1, we spanned the Garden Isle for favorites such as Tip Top Motel & Cafe, Waimea Brewing Company, and Jo Jo's Shave Ice. The 2nd part of ...

Kau Kau Kauai - Part 2

Wednesday, November 1st, 2006

OK gangy... We're back as promised. Albeit a month overdue, we're back nonetheless. Another exciting round of good eats from our friends on the Garden Isle. *ding ding* Part 1 brought a lot of feedback and suggestions and I thank you all for that. Hopefully, I'll make my way back and ...

Kau Kau Kauai

Friday, September 1st, 2006

OK, so you guys aren't big on exercise... I get it. My attempt to foray from my usual food-related columns to an "outdoorsy"-type last month garnered five measly comments all month (four in the last half of the month). It got just as much action as one of my nerdy, computer ...

Vegas Kine Grindz

Saturday, April 1st, 2006

Note: Since I made a promise and I'm a man of my word (not to mention being tired of speaking geek), we'll be taking a break from all that stuffy computer talk to do a fun column this month. And, by the looks of the amount of comments I got ...

Countdown to UFC 58!!!

Friday, February 10th, 2006

GOOD LORD! Can I be more excited!?!? Why, you ask??? Lemme count the ways... First of all, I'm taking a break from work and going on a much-needed vacation. Secondly, I'm going to Vegas! Third, I'm staying at the newly opened Hooters Hotel and Casino! Because it's new, not because it's Hooters you ...

Maui Wowie (PICS)!

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

Our long awaited retreat to Maui started off with great excitement and hilarity. Since Grant has prime time parking at the airport, he picked us all up in his Tacoma. As I've traveled with him many times before, normally, this plan works out perfectly. This time, however, we had a ...

My NBA Referee Story

Thursday, November 9th, 2000

During the National Anthem played prior to the game, I stood up along side of Grant and Reid and faced the American flag. All of the sudden, I felt a tap on my left shoulder. I was standing all the way to the right and had full view of Grant ...
