This is gonna be hard, so bear with me.
I've just spent a remarkable 48 hours with our newsgroup queen of stoke and
aloha, the unequaled Dee Dee. Just being in her company, as many GP2K1ers will
attest, is like being bathed in the glow of an angel. The positive and
unwavering spirit of kindness and love is almost a religious experience.Having the privilage...no....honor of spending quality 1 on 1 time, talking
about her life and how she came to the newsgroup (I am modestly taking credit
here, just ask her) has been a serious revelation for me. You might say D2
forced me to examine my own participation and caused me to look inward to
uncover and justify call the cynicism, anger, bitterness, suspicion and negative
attitude I have felt dealing with certain members of this ng.Having lived in Hawaii since she was four, Dee Dee grew up and in the Hawaiian
culture that embodies the spirit of aloha. In that culture there is no room for
feelings like I had. Her philosophy of finding something to love in every one
imbues her with such a wondrous halo of sweetness and love, you cannot meet her
and not love her spirit. It is the most positive force I have ever encountered.The night she serenaded us at the GP with songs of love, companionship,
brotherhood and friendship, she woke in me the realization that I am guilty of
being a catalyst for meanness, spite, anger, and disrespect. By writing lies
about my fellow group members from the PNW, I was ignoring their membership in
the human family and seeking to make myself feel superior by denigrating their
different way of communicating. They may be different but they are no less
worthy of respect, kindness, love and gratitude.Thanks to Dee Dee's influence and kind and gentle guidance, I can now embrace
and love my brothers from the PNW. And despite the fact they may continue to
scorn me by saying I am an old, fat,lazy, washed up, burned out, bodyboarding
poser, I can still find something to love in the fact they are my human brothers
and newsgroup friends.So, biting a bullet here, with all the love, respect,and sincerity I can muster
with the help of Dee Dee's graceful teachings, I wish nothing but good things
and great waves for our brothers and friends from the PNW. May your life be
full of righteous smoking barrels and your souls soar like sea birds flying on
the wings of love and aloha.Dee Dee is just getting up now and has a long drive home today. We went to
dinner last night at my favorite local place and she had a little too much to
drink, but she said she wanted to post something to you before she split. I'm
going out to buy some Pikake aroma therapy oil and some Gabby Pahinui cds she
recommended.I love youse all.
Lei Aloha, Lei Makamae.

Hi every one, it's Dee Dee on Foon's laptop......stoked to the max after the
fabulous and wonderful GP2K1. I'm so happy to be able to tell you what a
delightful & joyous experience the GP2K1 is.......YEAH!!!! This has been my
first vacation in several years and I want to tell you, da stokin guys of the
Tranquility Base have made it the happiest I can remember in years.First, a big Dee Dee shout out aloha to my all my GP2K1 friends.....Rod,Ferg,
Andy, Neal, Edmund, Sarge, Todd, KC & Sveta, Lucy (Ferg's cute little surf
doggie) new daddy Myron, Foosball master...Steve, and of course the humble Foon
himself. What can I say about that man......the last two days with him, helping
him close up the TB house then driving up to the Bunker have been a true delight
and revelation.Unfortunately he's not here right now.....he's off to the emergency clinic to
have his sinuses looked at after snorting some Pikaki aroma therapy oil from the
bottle....it's concentrated!! It's true....he's a walking catastrophe waiting to
happen!!! But we love him anyway!!! :))I just want to thank every person at the GP2K1 for making my visit one of the
most wonderful & happy experiences of my life. The words, "thank you" alone
cannot express the huge gratitude I feel for the opportunity to be there & meet
and especially surf with you all. I love you all to the maximum of my stoked
hawaiian heart. Such wonderful people, I feel so blessed to be able to have
spent such a great time talking, and especially surfing & cooking with you all.
You are all great & mighty stoked surfers of AS in my mind!!!Foon has been a true fount of information on this trip for me, especially the
last two days. He has patiently and gently opened my clouded eyes to what is
very wrong with this ng. Using Google archives he has shown me the cancer that
is growing in our midst, orchestrated by evil men posing in various false
profiles from the PNW. Evidence he has gathered, supplied by some who are much
smarter than him in computer matters, clearly show a malignant & meticulously
planned plot to dominate then destroy our beloved alt.surfing!!! How could we
let this happen!!!At first I could not believe this. But the overwhelming proof, beyond a shadow
of a doubt, presented with some nice shooters of Sauza Commemerativo Anejo,
convinced me that these evil, scumsucking, bottomfeeding, cultists are Satan's
own cyberspawn, who have infiltrated our happy family like terrorists, and
spread their putrid virus, creating greenheaded, pus filled boils on the ass of
our AS surfing brotherhood!!!!!These traitorous prickbastards are ruining our group before our very eyes. They
should be burned out and exposed for the evil, manipulating, profile-ific
monsters they are. I swear to God if I ever meet one of these clowns I will
crush his head like the peanut it is. The only pnw they'll know is one,
"PissedOff, Nasty, Wahini" from Ipswich MA!!!!Well, having told you all that, I still would like to wish you all, except those
ignorant F***Wads from the pnw, the most stoked & happy day. Love youse all.Lei Aloha, Lei Makamae
