working on a self-imposed surfmonk existence - writing in my dream journal as i drink my morning coffee, surfing, working on my new recording, writing 'blog entries, defrosting food - well, until my next paycheck anyway ... fed my last $2 to the lucky lions on hotel street during the 888 olympic block party in chinatown on friday.  still wriggle inside with pleasure when i remember the visceral experience of having firecrackers going off as the lion nibbled up my body and took the bill from my giddy hand with a hidden body part into its hot, humid mouth ... !  made for a heightened state of consciousness with which to witness the olympic opening ceremonies at 8:08 ... 'what channel is it on???' asks beefy keali'i @ ke kai's.  '... eight ... !!!' i tell him ...

needless to say, the ceremony was a heightened state of consciousness unto itself, so gorgeously massive and mesmerizingly perfect that i could not help but feel like i was witnessing an era-defining moment in the history of civilization; as china demonstrated, to a worldwide audience, its cultural power and vast potential.
