it's still pouring down rain here. i'm still betting i'm going to have to defrost my doors before i go to work today. michael, now you know what i had to deal with saturday night, i yanked on that door until i was physically out of strength. Had to have security muscle their way into my car or else i was SOL and calling triple a. With my luck they'd show up with an ice pick....

Rare Big Surf Competition Crowns Winner

California Man Wins First Prize, $55K & it should've been `KidSpace


`Surf `Up


UPDATED: 2:21 am EST December 9, 2009
HONOLULU
-- A one-day surfing contest that takes place only in extreme conditions was held for the first time in five years Tuesday, thanks to the massive waves pounding Oahu's famed North Shore.

Thousands gathered at Waimea beach to watch the world's top surfers rocket down waves 30 feet high. Some arrived at 4 a.m. for a good spot, while others camped out all night.
Popularly known as "The Eddie," the competition is held only when waves top 20 feet in Waimea Bay. This is only the eighth time the conditions have been right since the event was founded in 1984.
Many of the 28 competitors were professional surfers, including Kelly Slater, Bruce Irons and Sunny Garcia. All were experienced big-wave riders. Entrants were selected by a poll of surfers.
"We want guys who can't wait to pull themselves over the ledge and drop into a 25-foot wave," said Bob McKnight, president of Quiksilver, the event's sponsor. He was at a meeting in 1984 that led to the founding of the event.
The contest is held in honor of Eddie Aikau, a legendary Hawaiian surfer, Waimea Bay lifeguard and waterman. Aikau died in 1978 at the age of 31 when the traditional Hawaiian voyaging canoe he was on capsized en route from Hawaii to Tahiti. Aikau paddled on his surfboard toward Hawaii's Lanai island, 19 miles away, to get help, but never returned. The rest of the crew was rescued soon after.
Clyde Aikau, Eddie's brother and 1987 winner of "The Eddie," is competing at age 60. He said his family was humbled by the contest.
"It's always cool to surf for Eddie," Clyde Aikau said in a television interview Tuesday after riding a wave.
"Hawaiians call it chicken-skin to have so much support for Eddie over all these years," he said, using the local slang for goose bumps. "It's a tremendous feeling."
The winner, Greg Long of San Clemente, Calif., took home $55,000, while the total purse was $98,000.
Long, 24, edged ahead of his childhood idol Slater with a score of 323. Slater, 37, placed second with 313.
"I'm humbled to be even in this event," said Long, noting he had posters of his competitors on his walls growing up. "To be recognized amongst them on the invitee list was a dream come true for me."
Kauai-born Sunny Garcia placed third.
The National Weather Service forecast 30- to 40-foot waves, with some sets approaching 50 feet on the outer reefs as Hawaii remained under a high surf warning. The high surf was caused by two large storms northwest of Hawaii.
The storms were expected to send significant -- but smaller -- waves to the West Coast of the U.S. mainland Wednesday and Thursday, said Jonathan Hoag, a National Weather Service forecaster in Honolulu

Well so far my day isn't too great. I've been really sick the past few days and I found out I have a fever of 102.1 so I decided perhaps I should see the doctor...

4 Sure get it taken care of, and make SURE you're drinking LOTS of fluids, and NOT the alcoholic variety!
GET BETTER 4 us!

Space, ya got me thinking (smell something burning?) Can you see the shuttles and other rockets go up from your place? Have U ever thought about employment there, or tried???
Also, have you or any of the Bums ever been in any surfing competitions? Grandpa?

Morning everyone else,
We got about 3" of snow overnight.......then it rained. About 3/4" of slush out there. Looks like it went JUST north of us. WHEW! Thank you Lord for that!

Yeah I'd say I've definitely got the flu or something nasty. It comes off and on..like right now I feel alright but 3 hours ago I was in dying agony and roasting in my bed. Thanks for the well wishes though, it means a lot.
