Couture vs. Nogueira & Big Isle of Hawai'i



I'm at work with my friend Tin to get some fish tacos at Margaritas on Ala Moana and it's packed. Wtf? Ritas is almost never packed since Buffalo Wild Wings moved in upstairs... but today is different - UFC is on the tube and the island is out in full force. I don't know much about UFC except that it's a mixed martial arts event that fascinates my voyeuristic side - it's a lot like watching a budding romance, maybe bromance is a better word... the embraces, tussling, bruises, etc.; I want to look away but it's mesmerizing.

If I was in a dark alley at night I'd probably be more worried about a guy named Minotauro than one named Couture - Part Man/Part Bull in the labyrinth working fists on a Versace dress.

In the meantime I just bought a ticket back from Kona, Hawai'i to Honolulu, O'ahu. I never could understand why all the islands had such cool names while the youngest sibling got stuck with "Big Island." In actuality Big Island is named Hawai'i, duh.


Anyway, wanted to know your thoughts on fun activities you think I should explore, what you'd like to see pictures/videos of, etc. for the planning stages. I'm thinking of flying into Hilo and driving the southern route around to Kailua-Kona for a Quarter of a Century bash on Friday.
