My Dear Friends, Colleagues & Extended Ohana

I am leaving the Big Island for an unknown period, to pursue technology in San Francisco Bay Area and gorge myself at an endless array of Peruvian sushi restaurants, permaculture juice bars and yoga studio-laundromat-cappuccino joints.

1. Spiritual Awakening
2. Work in SF area
3. Real Estate and Referrals
4. Selling Stuff
5. Visit Me

SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

The hand of Pele moves. We all know this is a deeply challenging place. And I’ve seen Malahini, even locals from other island, implode here. My trials here have been painful, but I have been like a lotus flower, forced by the heat to enfold. Big Island’s mystical undercurrent has changed me. My spiritual work came to fruition in October at the ManKind Project weekend, when I had vision that I was complete and it was time to step up and follow my dreams: dreams that require the resources of the mainland.

I am sad to leave. I pray that I can export the Aloha I have learned from people here. And never lose that fine connection to the many people I love on this very strange, powerful island.

WORK in SF AREA

I’ve decided that I will pursue technology again, specifically my “Big Picture” ideas around Human Machine Interfaces and Unified Communications – and several projects I have not yet seen in marketplace, including concepts that go back to 1982 and laser graphics software, projects such as: Affinity Interfaces, Soft-Self, Meta-Social Tools, Heterogeneous Parallel Computing…

I need to find out if I am Visionary or a Kook.

I plan to picket Yahoo, SalesForce.com and Oracle until someone hires me or funds one of my ideas…if you have any connections…

REAL ESTATE & REFERRALS

I will keep my real estate license active and work with someone on island as my partner, most of my real estate work is on the computer and phone. Referrals: I can get a referral fees and I will also continue to match friends and clients with the appropriate salespeople, services and support they may need. And likely return periodically.

SELLING STUFF!

I am renting my house and selling whatever I can. Feel free to tell people to buy stuff! Lots of stuff

• Ray’s Appliance Recycling Business – someone needs to take it over – tons of parts and a great system – all left here

• Weight Set and barbells

VISIT ME

Map to House

I really want people to drop by…. I will be at home working on things, packing and fixing stuff. Call. Drop by. Watch me freak out.

KEEK

I am renting my house. I hope to leave Keek, but I would also really like to find him a good home. He likes to hang around people.  He is cat. He is goofy. I raised him for a tiny thing found in the street. I love him and I want him to be safe. He has every shot and RF tag etc.
