Day 2 Entry is Up
Sorry for the delay, but pictures and a short blurb about Day 2, the day after surgery, is now available.
So Far, So Good!
Things are going well here. Surgery is done with no complications. The long road to recovery is ahead…
Now that things are looking a little better, here are some sights from Hope by the Way of FAT.
CompUSA Closed in FAT
CompUSA closed its doors in Hawaii, and I can also report the CompUSA location in FAT is also closed for business. Their sign is still on the building, but the building’s been cleared out.
Business at next door Best Buy was brisk.
Yikes! It’s Cold
Don’t know how accurate this is, but it IS cold in FAT.
38 degrees with highs in the low 70’s.

Jessica Alba is Influential
Somewhere I read that motherhood makes you smarter… Was it Coco Bean that said that too? I didn’t know motherhood also made you more influential. Jessica Alba is the newest example.
A pregnant Alba is one of the many celebrities featured in will.i.am’s latest music video promoting Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. We Are the Ones follows the popular Yes, We Can video, and hopes to influence voters that a change is needed.
Beyond the world of politics, Jessica’s dance skills must have influenced Starbucks with its latest offering, the honey latte.
Who knew all the benefits of motherhood?
Weather Check
The weather ain’t too bad. Though morning times are really cold.
Here’s the predicted forecast for the week.
Will Ferrell is a Baller
Crazy Will Ferrell’s new movie Semi-Pro debuts today in theaters nationwide. His movie about a semi-professional basketball team vying to join the NBA might make it big this extra day of February. Beyond Will’s comedic skills, who knew he was a baller?
Check out Will take on retro-ed Bill Walton in a game of HORSE.
Of course, Will’s Semi-Pro character, Jackie Moon, is a baller and a player. See some promo pics of Jackie hand-checking Heidi Klum.
And did you see Semi-Pro’s age restricted trailer? No, not this one that should be, showing too much of Ferrell’s “tropics.”
What else can you expect from a movie with these taglines? The “Greatest Fro on Earth” and “Putting the funk into the dunk.”

Jack Johnson Sighting
Before things get too serious here, a blurb about a star sighting at SFO Airport. In between flights at the food court area, I saw this bearded guy who looked familiar. Sure enough, it was musician Jack Johnson who recently released his latest work, Sleep Through the Static.
Even though he looked a bit out of it (as most travelers do), he was cool enough to take a picture.
Thanks Jack! Sleep Through the Static just got another sale.

Times Like These…
With parenthood comes the best and worst of times. I’ve thought about what to say for this post for some time, but now the words fail me.
All I know is I want my son to have a chance – a chance at freedom, a chance at normalcy, a chance to live.
I’ll keep this short and leave with lyrics from a song that’s been stuck in my head for awhile. It’s the Foo Fighters Times Like These…
it’s times like these you learn to live again
it’s times like these you give and give again
it’s times like these you learn to love again
it’s times like these time and time again
