Meimur, the lovely host of Socially Inept, asked me to provide an image of my view. Here it is: Okay. I’m kidding. That’s the Iao Needle. I have to admit that I haven’t checked my blog all day so I just got this request. It’s a little before 7 pm here so the view isn’t … Read more
The Red Queen is off doing Mother/Daughter things on Oahu with, you guessed it, her mother. I on the other hand had a couple of articles that needed my attention. As I write, I tend to wander through blogexplosion so that the sheer boredom of my articles doesn’t kill me before it has a chance … Read more
In The One Where You Control The Vertical I asked that you submit requests for images that revealed a little more about me. Toni, an early adopter if ever there was one, asks for me to reveal my desktop. Not knowing which desktop she wanted (my office, kitchen table, or physical computer), I opted to … Read more
I’ve seen this done on various blogs and considering that I’m going all over the place taking pictures, I thought I’d give you a chance to decide what you want to see. So, here’s the deal: Tell me (by commenting here or by email: monkeydiaristATgmail.com) what you want to see pictures of and I’ll do … Read more
More than a few people have posted comments lately and for that I am thankful. Nothing makes blogging boring faster than speaking into a vacuum of your own making.

I can bet that various creationists are currently covering their heads with sand … Read more
Living on Maui means that occasionally you have to bite the bullet and do touristy stuff with visitors. The Red Queen’s Uncle Ian and Cousin Lynn are in town and they’re a hoot. Today we went on a whale watching tour with the Pacific Whale Foundation and I came away with some 200 pictures of … Read more
If you don’t keep up with my comments in the HOWLER MONKEYS section to the right, you’re missing out on some really fun stuff. For instance, after my post about ClearPlay, the comments became the platform for an interesting discussion on religion, morals, children, child rearing, and censorship. I think my rebuttal to the latest … Read more
I make my living on the Internet. Without it, I don’t make money. I’ve had intermittant access since around December 30th and when I do have access, it’s dialup. In my opinion, anyone who still uses dialup probably sports a mullet, drives a camaro and eats at McDonalds regularly. I have an even lower opinion … Read more
In my spare time, that is when I’m not being sarcastic in my comments to puritans, I like tooling around Maui and taking photographs of things that I find interesting. After finally getting my camera back yesterday, I saw this sunset. It has been pretty difficult these last few months trying to ignore the fact … Read more
