My Chosen Charity is Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. With The Rancho Vista Woman's Golf Club as Ways & Means Chair I helped to achieve and surpass our goals. "Rally For The Cure” supports the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. We held our Annual Golf Tournament on May 6 2007 we raised $13,000 Dollars this day & had a blast!
Please know the facts,
• If detected early, the five-year survival rate exceeds 95%.
• 13 million U.S. women 40 years of age or older have never had a mammogram.
• 1,300 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in MEN this year.
• Today, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer
• Every 3 Minutes a Woman is diagnosed with Breast Cancer
• Every 13 minutes a woman dies of Breast Cancer.
This means in the time it took to write you these facts, 1 woman died of Breast Cancer. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! Keep in Check!
In '08-'09 I hope to be more involved with The Lupus Foundation of Southern California

RJ has been writing short stories since he was a little kid always amazing everyone. At this time my son is a Studio Grip i.a.s.t.e. Hollywood Local #80 and is finishing college. RJ will no doubt win a Oscar someday so remember the name.

Who I'd like to meet:
I love funny people, who make me laugh without end. People that fart in bed (checking to see if anyone reads this shit). Ridiculously smart people make me tingle... Tiki Mug collectors, got to dig, Disneyland, Tiki Bar Hopping, Gallery Hopping, Hipsters & Geeks with a well rounded taste in music who also enjoy, Concerts, Theater, Travel-Road trips, The Beach, Studies of Polynesian culture, myths & folklore, "Poly Pop Culture", Mid Century pop cult of all types and design.
It Occurs to me that no matter how I fill this section out it sounds like "For a good time call..." NO one needs to go there. I'm just here for my own entertainment and cheap laughs so if you laugh fine. Don't take anything here too deeply or I will make fun of you till you cry. I am inquisitive if your not to boring I might even watch your home videos...depending...Do not ask me if I want to hook up or what I'm wearing right now. Oh! and don't send me your naked pictures! well... ok maybe but only if you've seen any part of me naked!

The Tahitian Terrace at Disneyland
*
The Tahitian Terrace was Disneyland's answer to the Tiki restaurant. The location was originally part of the Plaza Pavilion and known as the Pavilion Lanai. In the summer of 1962 the facility opened as the Tahitian Terrace with scheduled show times for a Polynesian Dinner review. In April of 1993, the restuarant closed and was re-imagineered into an Alladin Dinner Theater which performed poorly. Today the space is an Alladin themed story telling location in Adventureland.

Hello are you still alive??? I have been calling you lady.... Whats goin on?
iI wanted to thank you, Kelly, for all your support, I consider you as my dearest friend and, and dear family member. As I consider you my very best friend and family - after all, Kelly it has been like 15 years. Ever ssince I was 4 years old Cathy was my sister, friend and mother. She has said to my many times if I had not gotton the mother I have (we have) she would have been my mother. We had a connection like I have never expercienced before. I will push on as that is what she would have wanted, though I feel like a piece of me is lost/missing....her passing happened so suddenly, i would have never thought it would hapen so soon, this way. Ya know I had plans for us to grow old together. My Mom struggeling with losing her baby, her first born, she said "A mother is not supposd to losse her own child." So my my Mom is struggeling with her death. I know things will change, I see what is really important in life - always let the peaple you love know you love them/ Because one day, with out any notice, they may be gone
I love you Kelly, son't ever forget that....you are the best and only friend I have.
I love you more than you wil ener know.
love and aloha xoxoxoxox ~John xoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxox
