ROBREPORT

BY ROB PARSONS ROBPARSONS@EARTHLINK.NET

The war within Memorial Day reflections focus on starting anew “Basically, the Earth needs a new operating system. You are the programmers, and we need it within a few decades.” -Paul Hawken itting on a friend’s open porch on Memorial Day, I gazed out on the bucolic, pastoral view of upper Haiku. A stifling volcanic haze hung in the air, putting a soft focus lens on the fields of molasses grass beyond his vegetable gardens and banana trees.

Out past wild coffee trees and newly planted green tea saplings, a dozen or so goats gathered in a holiday hui, a sort of pasture picnic.

The scene held a timeless quality, far from traffic and technology, shopping malls and subdivisions, and the economic and ecological system collapses prevalent in the larger world. In my temporary exile, it offered a dreamy backdrop for reflection.

S

works display. But the seasonal change also brought on a bumper crop of the uninvited hitchhiking insects. In a few short days, my office became infested to the point that, upon entering, it looked as though some rogue waiter with his pepper grinder had mistaken my ankles for a Caesar salad— only the pepper flakes were moving.

So we resigned to do one of the things modern man has learned to do best: apply toxic chemicals to alter the natural environment. he cavalier disregard exhibited by governments, corporations and profiteers means that, collectively, humans must “figure out what it means to be a human being on Earth at a time when every living system is declining, and the rate of the decline is accelerating.”

So says Paul Hawken, author, environmentalist and visionary entrepreneur, in a much-forwarded e-mail containing his

T

For all the technological cleverness of our species, we have not found a vaccine for our murderous propensities, nor manufactured “weapons” of peace capable of transmitting love and healing.

In our household, Memorial Day had morphed into D-Day, with the “D” standing for “Displacement.” It was a day to move beyond smaller skirmishes, to take drastic action, and to drop the big bomb. Yes, D-Day was fleaday, and we set off two chemical foggers before high-tailing it out of the house for the day.

It started innocently enough, with an occasional sighting of the tiny, hopping blood-suckers. Our two cats had often taken refuge inside during our colder-than-anyone-could-remember winter, though now they were back to spending daytime hours out on our covered lanai. In particular, Kulolo, our big white kitty, made my office his frequent feline napping zone.

The long awaited return of warm, dry conditions produced an explosion of thrip-less gardenias on a neighbor’s hedge; the hundreds of bursting blossoms looked like a Fourth of July fire-

recent commencement address to the University of Portland’s graduating class.

In the same eloquently inspirational tones contained in his recent book, Blessed Unrest, Hawken explicated the enormous challenges and unequaled opportunities we face.

“This planet came with a set of operating instructions,” Hawken told the graduates, “but we seem to have misplaced them. Important rules, like don’t poison the water, soil or air and don’t let the Earth get overcrowded and don’t touch the thermostat, have been broken.”

Hawken dismissed the cynics, casting his lot instead with the dreamers and those caring people working on the most pressing issues of the day.

“When asked if I am pessimistic or optimistic about the future,” he said, “my answer is always the same: If you look at the science about what is happening on Earth and aren’t pessimistic, you don’t understand data. But if you meet the peo-

“We can bomb the world to pieces, but we can’t bomb it into peace.”

- Michael Franti ple who are working to restore this Earth and the lives of the poor and you aren’t optimistic, you haven’t got a pulse.”

Blessed Unrest elaborates on the worldwide movement that, according to Jane Goodall, emanates from “the inherent goodness at the heart of our humanity.”

Hawken contends that “humanity is coalescing…reconstituting the world.” And it is happening within organizations working to address “climate change, poverty, deforestation, peace, water, hunger, conservation, human rights and more.”

And so I found myself, far from the beaches and barbecues, reflecting on Hawken’s message, a sermon of sorts to the servants of Mother Earth. I also pondered the juxtaposition of a holiday set aside to honor those who served their country in past and present wars, lest we forget the heartbreaking toll exacted by such conflict. emorial Day has its roots in efforts by Civil War wives to establish a day of remembrance, originally observed as Decoration Day in 1868. After World War I, the May 30 commemoration was expanded to include those who died or served in any war or military action.

In 1971, near the end of the Vietnam War, an act of Congress made Memorial Day a legal holiday, adjusting the date to the last Monday in May. Some felt that establishing a three-day holiday weekend detracted from the solemnity of the obser-

M

vance, encouraging instead picnics, parties and sporting events. Senator Daniel Inouye, a World War II Medal of Honor veteran of the 442nd Regimental Combat team, has repeatedly introduced measures intended to return Memorial Day to its original May 30 date.

It is exasperating to witness the resources poured into military preparedness, with 54 percent of the national budget allocated for national defense (and offense), compared to 30 percent for human resources (according to a pie chart found on warresisters.org).

The cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2001 is $861 billion and counting.

The National Priorities Project database breaks down state and local funding for education, housing, social services, energy and other vital needs, and contrasts that against bloated military spending.

The oft-quoted words of George Santayana remind us that, “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” In that light, the ongoing bellicose practices of man are distressing.

Waging war represents a fundamental failing that has spanned the ages and continues to infect the present. For all the technological cleverness of our species, we have not found a vaccine for our malicious and murderous propensities, nor manufactured “weapons” of peace capable of transmitting love and healing, rather than death and destruction.

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD FLUSH TO JUDGMENT In April, the district attorney in Vilas County, Wis., announced that he was seeking volunteers for a forensic test to help his case against Douglas Plude, 42, who is scheduled to stand trial soon for the second time in the death of his wife. The volunteers must be female, about 5feet-8 and 140 pounds, and will have to stick their heads into a toilet bowl and flush. Plude is charged with drowning his wife in a commode, but his version (which the prosecutor will try to show is improbable) is that his wife committed suicide by flushing herself.

REMOVED FROM REALITY Neal Horsley, running for governor of Georgia in the 2010 election on a platform encouraging the quaint Peach State legal theory of “nullification” (i.e., that the state can override the Constitution in certain instances), is principally known as a staunch foe of abortion who once posted a “hit list” of doctors. However, Horsley is also celebrated for a 2005 television interview with Fox News’ Alan Colmes, in which Horsley described his childhood: “When you grow up on a farm in Georgia, your first girlfriend is a mule.”

THERE’S GOTTA BE AN EXPLANATION A month after her client was accused of a March attempted murder, attorney Frances Hartman spoke up for him to a reporter. “[My client] is an exemplary young man,” said Hartman, describing fourth-year Camden, N.J., medical student Brett Picciotti, 26, who was charged with shoving his girlfriend off a second-story balcony, but who denied that he pushed her. “This is an aberrational charge,” Hartman

said. “I think there’s an explanation.

I’m just not prepared to give it to you right now.”

TRAGIC IRONY Environmental activists Raoul Surcouf and Richard Spink set sail from Bristol, England, in May on a 40-foot boat outfitted with solar panels and a wind turbine to attempt the first carbon-neutral crossing of Greenland’s polar ice cap (a journey being monitored eagerly online in Bristol by 25,000 schoolchildren).

However, 400 miles off the coast of Ireland, hurricane-force winds destroyed the boat, and the crew was lucky to be rescued by a nearby ship— which was a tanker carrying 680,000 barrels of crude oil.

OUT TO LUNCH In April, accounting clerk James Kauchis made a formal complaint to the personnel office of the county Department of Social Services in Binghamton, N.Y., demanding that he be compensated for a recent interrupted lunch hour. Kauchis had missed lunch when DSS offices were locked down as police secured the neighborhood surrounding the site of the April 3 massacre in which a gunman killed 13 people and then himself. Although DSS had pizza and beverages brought in during the siege, Kauchis felt that wasn’t as good as a regular lunch hour.

WAR, continued from page 5 There has never been a war which brought about a lasting peace, so why, oh why, are we still in attack mode?

Surely we are misappropriating our resources, energy and tax dollars.

Representative Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, twice a presidential hopeful, has proposed creating a Department of Peace to help set us on course. While the idea met with passing popular interest, others, including members of the mainstream media, regarded Kucinich and his ideas as pie-in-the sky and deemed his campaign to be merely a fringe faction. In response, Kucinich quipped, “I don’t know why people say I’m unelectable—all they have to do is vote for me.”

KAMA‘AINA SPECIAL

for

President Obama’s recent supplemental spending request for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan brings the 2009 total to just under $145 billion, 22 percent less than the $186 billion spent in 2008 and $15 billion more than $130 billion sought for 2010. By then, the overall costs will have exceeded a trillion dollars.

It is expected that an additional 17,000 troops may be heading to Afghanistan, perhaps in knee-jerk response to the rocky political climate in neighboring Pakistan, a country with 172 million people, shrinking resources and nuclear weapons capabilities. About $65 billion, or half of the 2010 war budget, is directed towards Afghanistan.

Concurrently, there are efforts to draw down the 136,000 U.S. troops in Iraq, witnesses to an ongoing occupation that has

left a million Iraqis dead and created four times as many as refugees.

(In that context, my one-day displacement from my comfortable home during fumigation hardly qualifies as a hardship—except, of course, to the many deceased fleas.) n an Orion magazine article titled “World at Gunpoint,” Derrick Jensen proposes that we should ask the question, “How shall I live my life right now?”

As we look down the barrel of environmental catastrophe, he invites us to ponder, “How do I disarm or dispatch these psychopaths? How do I stop them using any means necessary?”

It’s not just that we are killing each other; the Earth itself has long been under siege. “Nothing matters,” Jensen

I

writes, “but that we stop this culture from killing the planet. It’s embarrassing even to have to say this. The land is the source of everything. If you have no planet, you have no economic system, you have no spirituality.”

The world is unfolding every day, and we are part of that great evolution. We are well advised to follow Hawken’s prescription to look to the stars with wonder, rather than to our television sets.

“This extraordinary time when we are globally aware of each other and the multiple dangers that threaten civilization has never happened, not in a thousand years, not in ten thousand years,” contends Hawken. “Nature beckons you to be on her side. You couldn’t ask for a better boss. This is your century. Take it and run as if your life depends on it.” MTW

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

Photo: Wikimedia Commons

WEDNESDAY, MAY 20 As anticipated, I got a couple e-mails about last week’s entry on melanoma prevention. One focused on the supposed link between melanoma and sunscreen, but didn’t present much in the way of convincing evidence. The message I found most interesting was an unsigned note from a reader that said, in essence: brown skinned people don’t need to worry about skin cancer. (Predictably, the letter also contained the well-worn “Haole Times” chestnut, forcing me to remind everyone yet again that it’s “Haole Time.”

Please, if you’re going to pigeonhole us, at least get your facts straight.)

Anyway, I decided to do a little research into the notion that dark skin equals lower skin cancer risk. On the surface, there’s definitely some veracity to the claim—blacks, Hispanics, Pacific Islanders and others with high concentrations of melanin have a significantly lower incidence of skin cancer than do Caucasians. But, according to a January report from the national Skin Cancer Foundation, the melanoma survival rate for dark skinned people is much lower, almost certainly because warning signs are ignored and the cancer is allowed to advance before treatment is sought.

(Access to medical care may also play a role.) Quoted in the study, Skin Cancer Foundation spokesperson Mona Gohara added another noteworthy wrinkle: ethnic background and skin color are two very different things.

“Within each ethnic group there is a range of skin tones, all of which are at risk for skin cancer,” said Gohara. The obvious conclusion: better safe than sorry.

It’s rare that a Maui project of any kind costs less than anticipated or is completed early. When both of those things happen at once, well, let’s just say the fates have aligned. And align they did over the Hana landfill cleanup, which, The Maui News reports, SOS Metals Island Recycling finished three months ahead of schedule, and for a bid $1 million lower than expected. In all, about 5 million pounds of junk including old vehicles (shocking, I know), batteries and appliances that had been building up for more than a decade was hauled to Central Maui. From there it’ll be shipped off-island according to county officials, and become someone else’s problem. That’s the thing about garbage: you can clean it up (and it’s a good thing they did, for Hana’s sake), but it never really goes “away.”

Invade this.

FRIDAY, MAY 22

SATURDAY, MAY 23

Here’s one of those “I’ll believe it when I see it” headlines from today’s Maui News: “Boardwalk almost ready.” The boardwalk in question, as you’ve probably guessed, is the infamous one along the Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge in South Maui, which has languished for years in a state of partial completion because of delays related to a small, 14space parking lot and various bureaucratic entanglements. In all, the undertaking has cost more than $2 million, reason enough to make the demand: open the damn thing already! Supposedly we’re close, just an inspection and a few sign installations away. Lingering doubt aside, I really hope that’s true… In other news: NIMBYism is as powerful as it is prevalent. That acronym, for those unfamiliar, stands for “Not in My Backyard.” And it was on full display recently on Oahu, according to a report in today’s Honolulu Advertiser about a plan to construct longterm housing for the “chronically homeless,” whose ranks are rising, in Honolulu’s Chinatown. Here’s the relevant line, which can be found, with little variation, in every single story about proposals to build low-income housing or homeless shelters: “Some said that they liked the concept but didn’t want it in the area for fear it would pose a safety threat.” These things have to be built somewhere. The homeless (or “houseless,” as some advocates prefer) tend to be concentrated in urban areas, where other, not houseless people also live. If you “like the concept” and yet refuse to allow it to be built near you no matter what, you are not only a NIMBY but a hypocrite as well. (Also: not having a house doesn’t automatically make someone a public safety threat, just as having a house doesn’t make someone a model citizen.

The homeless woman you cross the street to avoid could be a perfectly decent victim of circumstance, while that guy down the block with the two bedroom, one-and-ahalf bath might be a raving lunatic.)

In a victory for anyone who thinks voting technology has gotten ahead of itself, Judge Joseph Cardoza ruled in favor of five Maui voters on Wednesday and ordered state election officials to make rules regarding the use of Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) devices and the transmission of results over phone lines or the Internet. I interviewed attorney Lance Collins, who represents the voters, back in October 2008, shortly after Judge Cardoza ruled the lawsuit was filed too close to the election to force any rulemaking. At the time, Collins said that voting technology in itself isn’t a bad thing but that working out the kinks is essential. “You don’t experiment with elections,” he said.

He echoed that sentiment in an e-mail sent yesterday: “The more electronic the voting system becomes, the greater the need for clear rules to guide election officials.” Now we wait to see what kind of rules they come up with.

SUNDAY, MAY 24 The long-simmering debate over the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope (ATST) that the National Science Foundation wants to place on the summit of Haleakala is heating up, as a draft Environmental Impact Statement moves forward. It’s being sold as a fight between Native Hawaiian advocates and the scientific community, though, as with all matters related to cultural preservation and progress, it’s more complicated than

that. You can get a copy of the EIS at public libraries islandwide, or read it online at atst.nso.edu. The deadline for written comments is June 22. You can also offer input at two public meetings: June 3, 58pm at the Cameron Center in Wailuku; and June 4, 7-10pm at the Mayor Hannibal Tavares Community Center in Pukalani.

MONDAY, MAY 25 For a thought-provoking examination of the origins and significance of Memorial Day, check out this week’s Rob Report (page 5). I’ll only add that, on this and every other day, it’s important to honor those who have died and to question the wisdom and necessity of the causes they died for. Both are patriotic.

TUESDAY, MAY 26 Speaking of war: It’s interesting to note that the two countries currently grabbing headlines for their nuclear ambitions— Iran and North Korea—were the other members of Bush’s “axis of evil.” One could argue (and I will) that by attacking Iraq, the only member without a nuclear bomb or any real prospects of obtaining one (despite the lies, er, faulty intelligence presented by Powell, Cheney, et al), we sent a clear message to the other two: get nukes, or you’re next. Obama has identified nuclear disarmament as a key goal. As with most of his other lofty ambitions, the actions of the Bush Administration are making things exceedingly difficult. MTW

heech Marin and Tommy Chong’s influence on comedy, pop culture and joint circumference is immeasurable. Up In Smoke, Nice Dreams and other films as well as countless records are canonical among stoners, non-stoners and anyone who knows good comedy.

A lot has happened in the 25 years since the Corsican Brothers, the last film to feature the pair. In 2003, thenAttorney General and all-around barrel of fun John Ashcroft targeted Chong for marketing bongs in an investigation called Operation Pipe Dreams (which sounds like it could have been the brainchild of Sergeant Stedenko). It landed Chong 9 months in prison. Now he’s out, and he and Cheech (who has a long list of post-breakup film and TV credits) have done the unexpected—they’ve reunited. Their Light Up America tour hits Maui May 29, and they’ve reportedly got a new movie in the works. We caught up with them recently and found that despite all that’s changed, they’re still funny as hell.

They complete each other’s half-sentences.

There’s an interesting story behind how you guys first got together. Want to share it with our readers?

TC It was during the Vietnam War, and Cheech was part of an army that was stationed in Canada—a secret army that was

10

MAY 28, 2009

stationed in Canada in case the Viet Cong attacked from Alaska. I was running a topless nightclub, an R&R station for the troops. And, uh, it featured naked women, and I was looking for someone that could be a pastie warmer. Pasties are those little bits of material that girls wore over their nipples because at one time it was illegal to show nipples. But the girls didn’t like to put on the pasties because they were cold. So Cheech was hired as a pastie warmer.

CM I think it was because I had experience. I took a college course in it, so…

TC He knew how to warm a pastie better than anybody, really.

that was me. And I said, “We should go down to LA.” Because my wife at the time lived in Los Angeles. So we went down to Los Angeles and we starved for a year because in the guidebook for how to make it big in show business, it’s mandatory that you starve for one year.

Perhaps longer, but minimum one year.

And we did.

CM We only ate two meals a day.

TC And we did it. And then people begged us to do records and begged us to do movies and begged us to do everything. So we did it. We were beggars.

CM Like they say, beggars can’t be choosers.

“You don’t make a movie for stoners.

You definitely don’t want to do that.

A stoner will turn on the Discovery Channel and think he’s watching Up In Smoke.”

CM Yeah. I could go: [exhales heavily]. ’Cause I had that Mexican breath, and it was full of chiles. [Exhales again.]

TC I had another partner, and he quit because his wife found out what he was doing. So I needed a partner. Actually, both Cheech and I needed a job and so we formed a band and then we did comedy. And next thing you know we’re Cheech and Chong. So instead of one guy outta work there was two of us. And now we’re talking to you. We were out of work, and then we were discovered by…first the Scientology people discovered us.

CM Seriously, we met John Travolta when he was like 12.

TC Nah, he was still in the bubble when we met him.

CM Oh, that’s right. The bubble.

TC And then someone said, “You guys are funny, you need to go down…” Oh,

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

I heard, Chong, that you were in an R&B or Motown band for a while, and that’s how you guys met.

TC Well, I was a black guy for a while.

Quite a while, actually.

CM That was one thing we had in common. We were both black guys for a long time.

TC Actually I was black from ’57 to actually ’60—for 10 years. Everything went in 10-year increments. I’m in my Chicano phase now, though.

I’ve heard both of you say at different times that you quit smoking grass. In light of this, how much do you incorporate marijuana use into your act?

TC Oh, a hundred percent. A hundred percent. We’re marijuana actors. We’re marijuana improvisational actors. What happens, when you smoke as much dope as we have, you’re constantly high

even though you’re not smoking. It’s in your system. If you smoke it over 50 years like I have you can’t get it out of your system. It’s totally in your system.

And all you have to do is hear different words or see different things or feel different—like if you feel the breeze on your skin you can get high. So I’m constantly stoned, and Cheech, being Mexican, was born that way. That’s why they call it marijuana.

CM Actually they tried to call it Tijuana, but that name was already taken.

So Chong…by the way, do you prefer Tommy or Chong?

TC Sir Tommy. I was knighted the other day.

Can you give a rundown of what happened with your 2003 arrest and subsequent prison sentence?

TC Sure. First I got up, then I went to jail, stayed in jail for nine months, and I learned a lot of things. That’s where I was knighted, actually, in jail. Well, I was mounted first and then I was knighted. I learned to keep my mouth shut in jail for a lot of reasons. And I learned to mind my own business. And you can drop the soap, you just have to squat to pick it up, that’s all. And I learned that the Bush Administration are a bunch of low-down, dirty rotten scoundrels that will be going to jail eventually. And I hate ’em, I hate ’em, I hate ’em. But I did well in jail, I made a lot of friends. I met a lot of really nice people. A lot of Republicans. There were so many Republicans in prison, it’s a wonder I was there.

A lot of white collar criminals?

TC Yeah. Well, politicians, you know? In fact, I was in a jail that they built for the Nixon/Watergate people. It was a special jail they built especially for those guys. I guess they were expecting more of them, you know? It was a big one. My jail experience has taught me that I need a Mexican.

That I can’t survive in this world—especially in California—without my Mexican.

And luckily, I had one that I hadn’t seen for a while or used for a while, but he was there so we’re back together again.

What do you think about Obama scoffing at the possibility of legalizing marijuana?

TC It’s a front. He’s not going to commit political suicide just yet. You know, just like the gays in the military. It’s the same thing. In this case, especially with pot, you don’t wanna be the guy that sticks your head out and, says, you know, “it should be legal,” when you could have someone else do it. You know like Barney Frank or someone that is known for it.

That’s what it is, and he’s kind of tiptoeing around. Plus he’s a black guy, so we know that it’s in his genes as well. It’s not only in our genes but it’s in his genes, too, so he’s being very careful, politically.

CM I think we should have a national referendum: beer or weed? Or both?

Do you think stoner humor has evolved over the years?

TC Yeah. It’s gotten stronger. Twenty percent stronger.

CM It’s got more THC in it.

TC It’s got way more THC in it. And it’s harder to take.

CM It’s got a medicine odor. What is stoner humor? It’s quaint.

TC Yeah, that’s how far it’s evolved.

So do you think that drug humor is limited, or that there’s more that can be done with it?

CM Oh there’s much more potential for it.

It’s bigger today than in the days when we were making movies.

TC Much bigger.

You guys were pretty much the first to bring it into the mainstream. What kind of stumbling blocks did you encounter?

TC We were the stumbling blocks ourselves. Or stumbling blokes, as they say in England.

Your work is a commentary on law enforcement, but it also lampoons the counterculture and the seedy underbelly of things. To what extent can stoner humor do this without actually losing the interest of, well, stoners?

TC First of all, you don’t make a movie for stoners. You definitely don’t want to do that. A stoner will turn on the Discovery Channel and think he’s watching Up In Smoke. You don’t make anything for stoners. When you make a movie, you’re really making a movie for the studio executives that have to sell it.

And these are the guys with zero to none taste. And so you’re trying to make the movie for yourself. And that’s what you do. If it makes you laugh, chances are it’ll make all the other stoners laugh. So this is what Cheech and Chong do. We entertain ourselves. And if it’s not funny, we do something about it. And that’s how we do everything. Our movies, our records, live performances.

We do it for ourselves. We entertain each other. That’s why we’re such a good team—we’re the best audience. We’re not going to fake it. We’re not going to laugh at something that’s not funny. You don’t try to point anything at stoners, except a bong.

And maybe some Doritos?

CM And flashing lights.

that only sick people should be allowed to smoke it. And you can be sick in so many ways.

If you were writing Up In Smoke now, how would it be different?

CM Well, we’d know how it came out.

TC First of all we’d be using a computer.

We’d probably get it done much faster.

But would it be different? No, it probably wouldn’t be any different at all. That’s what we’re doing now. We’re trying to write Up In Smoke 30 years later and it’s coming out the same way, you know? We have 40 pages that’ll end up as a movie ’cause the rest will be improvisational.

I’ve heard that you aren’t going to revive “Dave’s Not Here.” Why is that?

CM Because he’s not here. We’ve been waiting on him a long time, and he’s not here.

TC But when he gets here we’re gonna do him.

CM Yeah, we’re just waiting for him.

TC So we’re waiting for Dave. When he shows up, we’re gonna put him on stage.

CM He’s hanging out with Godot. And we’re waiting for both of ’em.

“It’s like two old Alzheimer’s patients getting together. They complete each other’s half-sentences.”

Are there any comedians currently on the scene whose work you admire?

TC Oh, yeah. Louis CK is a guy that I love.

He’s very, very funny. Also I like Carlos Mencia because then, that way, if you like Carlos, you’ll like all the comedians around. Because he kind of—he kind of takes everybody’s work into one, so…I like Carlos because you get a taste of everybody when you see [him]. And I like Bill Cosby, too. He’s the original grumpy old stoner.

I read that you guys were making a film called Grumpy Old Stoners. Is that still in the works?

TC Oh, yeah. We’re making Grumpy Old Stoners II. We’re making that first.

[Grumpy Old Stoners] is a working title, but it will probably end up being the title.

Do you think any progress—political, social, cultural—has been made since you were first making movies and challenging taboos?

CM Marijuana is now quasi-legal. Before it was just illegal. Now, if you’re lucky enough to have cancer or some other debilitating disease, then you can get it free. So it’s come a long way. We’ve some a long way, baby. From a $10 kilo to a $2,500 kilo.

We’ve got a raging debate about medical marijuana here in Hawaii. I’m sure you guys have heard about it.

TC Oh, yeah. Well, that’s why I think

TC And Jimmy Hoffa. They’re forming a band.

Have you guys played Maui before?

CM Oh, yeah.

TC We played a restaurant there.

CM Longhi’s.

TC Yeah, it was Longhi’s. That’s right.

We don’t get a lot of big acts out here, especially comedians. What motivated you to add Maui to your tour?

CM We like it. It’s cool. We’ve got a lot of friends there. People have been begging for us to come there on the Internet.

TC And Cheech wants to climb the Hana mountains to get a bag of pot.

CM Last time I climbed a big mountain and met with a private grower, and Tommy bought a bag at the grocery store...

TC ...health food store. That’s why we’re [coming] back—to commemorate that day. MTW

MILAGROS Guacamole is one of the greatest paradoxes in the history of food. On one hand it’s loaded with essential fatty acids and a slew of other macro and micro nutrients.

Yet it has tons of fat and salt, especially when you factor in the chips. An order of chips and guac is hearty enough to satisfy two at Milagros, as their portion verges on bucket-size. Plus it has big chunks of avocado, which serve as a reminder that what you’re eating is real food. It also goes quite well with the margaritas. 3 Baldwin Ave., Paia, 579-8755.

Not liking guacamole is an indictment of one’s overall character and ability to function soundly within civilized society.

LIFE’S A BEACH Another place offering a generous portion, Life’s a Beach has the added benefits of sun-soaked lanai seating and dollar—yes, dollar—mai tais (which are actually pretty good; I mean, they’re mai tais). Of course, with this combination, all attempts to convince yourself that nutritive value is your main concern will be out the door. Like Milagros, the people-watching quotient is high, albeit it with a totally different, substantially less hippie-saturated crowd. 1913 S. Kihei Rd., Kihei, 891-8010.

MAUI TACOS The general consensus (admittedly to a lesser degree among vegans like myself) is that you can’t go wrong with Mexican food.

Maui Tacos exemplifies this. Guac is one of the most important menu items here, unless you’re one of those soulless individuals who claims not to like guac. Not liking guac is an indictment of one’s overall character and ability to function soundly within civilized society. Look it up. Wait, don’t.

Beer. It’s a beverage both stalwart and versatile, a peerless thirst-quencher for a beach BBQ yet classy enough for a linen tablecloth toast. It’s an acquired taste admittedly, and not for everyone. But for those who’ve enjoyed its frothy embrace in good times and drowned their sorrows in its rich amber depths when the chips were down, it’s one of life’s true pleasures.

tuate. Preferred consumption venues include festivals, bars with pool tables and Rush concerts.

While it’s home to a few good microbreweries, California’s Humboldt County is better known for producing a different mood-altering substance.

In a not-so-subtle nod to that well-earned reputation, this crisp, mildly citrusy beer is said to contain “a secret blend of Humboldt herbs.” Indeed.

Wailua Wheat

(Lost Coast Brewery)

Arrogant Bastard Ale (Stone Brewing Co.)

In addition to sporting one of the coolest monikers ever, this is an exemplary ale, especially for unabashed hop heads. The floral fullness is balanced by hints of caramel, topped by a robust head. But be warned: with a 7-plus percent alcohol content, a couple of these babies could turn you into a…well, you know.

Shock Top Amber Ale (Michelob Brewing Co.)

Modeled after Belgian-style wheat ales, hence the orange character, this offering is highly recommended for those who enjoy Blue Moon. It’s golden, rich and has a vague tinge of sweetness, which an orange slice will accen-

(Kona Brewing Co.)

This Kona specialty brew incorporates a dash of Lilikoibased sourness, which makes it an atypical, and noteworthy, fruity beer. Light yet flavorful, this an excellent choice for beach excursions.

Yellow Submarine (Maui Brewing Co.)

This pale ale is brewed with amarillo hops, an experimental variety grown in Washington’s Yakima Valley. Only 200 pounds of this year’s crop, which gets its name from its yellow-ish hue (amarillo being Spanish for yellow), has been released to U.S. breweries, Maui Brew Co. brewer Kim Lutz says. Sierra Nevada got the lion’s share, and Maui Brew Co. got about 20 pounds. “This one isn’t as bitter as most pale ales or IPAs,” Lutz says, adding that the hops give this super-rare brew a hint of citrus. Savor it.

Cheers to the MACC for 15 great years!

While beer is probably enough to get you off your okole, proceeds from this event are going to a worthy cause—namely, the Maui Arts & Cultural Center and its various community and youth programs (a fact that may offer a measure of consolation as you nurse that inevitable hangover).

To say the MACC, now in its 15th year of existence, is vital to Maui’s art and music scene is an understatement. As both a venue and community hub, it’s brought big names to the Valley Isle and helped enrich the lives of Maui residents, particularly young people. The center’s arts and education programs reach close to 20,000 keiki annually, many of them in isolated areas like Hana, Molokai and Lanai.

So when that second (or fourth) oat soda has you in a toasting mood, lift your glass to the MACC and drink all health.

away to a fabled land. The element of surprise is rich here, so I won’t describe any more of the plot, but the imagination on display is astonishing. I had no idea where the story was going and was constantly stunned and delighted by the wild twists and hilarious characters.

The emphasis may be on comedy but, like Wall-E, this is a love story at heart; a quiet montage at the beginning could drive audiences to tears. Adults will be floored by how truthful, tender and moving the film’s first act is, while the young ones may be surprised by how serious this sometimes gets (and yes, the PG rating is appropriate, as a few moments scared the little ones in the screening I attended). From the first scene, you really feel for Carl—instead of being a stubborn old man cliché, he’s one of the most determined and heroic figures we’re likely to see all summer.

As for the animation, the characters may have a toy-like appearance, but the

Earning his “flying on a porch with an old man” merit badge.

Fourteen years later, the quality of a Pixar film remains sky-high for two very big reasons: character and story.

Other films offer cutting-edge animation and some have outright attempted to steal the Pixar formula. But they’ve all fallen short, because Pixar films have a rare, inimitable quality where you genuinely love the characters and are deeply engaged by the journeys they take.

The word “journey” is especially appropriate for Up, Pixar’s latest masterpiece, which follows the adventures of Carl, an elderly but feisty old man who attaches hundreds of balloons to his house and flies

clothes they wear and the places they go look utterly real. The ending is all about action, which is fun, if not as emotionally charged as the film’s remarkable beginning. Yet the story is always rewarding, with thrilling set pieces and some hilariously warped details (the initial bit with the talking dog is only a setup for one of the biggest laughs of the summer).

It’s a gift to movie lovers that Pixar can produce an animated knockout almost semi-annually. And their influence on the studio that Walt built is showing—this fall, we get The Princess and the Frog, the first traditionally animated Disney film in years.

The magic lives on. MTW

MOVIECAPSULES Maui Film Festival Candlelight Cinema PARIS 36 - PG13 - Art, Foreign - It’s Paris in 1936. Someone is about to tear down your music hall. This is our concern, dude. So you protest, probably in a whimsical manner that is set to music. In French with English subtitles. 120 min.

New This Week DRAG ME TO HELL - R - Fantasy - When a young, pretty, blonde loan officer evicts an old woman from her home, said loan officer becomes cursed, which turns out to be loads of fun. 99 min.

UP - PG - Animation - This Pixar rager chronicles the voyage of an old dude who, after tying a balloon or two to his house, is bound for South America, where he has dreamed of visiting all his life. 96 min.

Now Showing ANGELS AND DEMONS - PG13 Thriller - Based on the smash hit Dan Brown airplane page-turner of the same name, this flick follows a similar arc as that of Brown’s ‘The Da Vinci Code’ in that it involves uncovering some trippy cryptoconspiracy type stuff involving the Vatican.

I’m guessing this, much like the novel, will be more widely consumed aboard aircraft than anyplace else. 138 min.

DANCE FLICK - PG13 - Art, Foreign - One of those Wayans Brothers “movie” attempts, and presumably an instant classic.

It involves an interracial boy-girl dance duo.

High on the lobotomized farm animal mustsee list. 83 min.

EARTH - G - Documentary - Famous baritones Captain Picard and Darth Vader narrate this documentary that chronicles the migration routes of different, globe-spanning animal families. Warning: there are bears. 96 min.

GHOSTS OF GIRLFRIENDS PAST PG13 - Comedy - Matthew McConaughey plays a douchebag who womanizes copiously, and tries to get his engaged brother to do the same. In a dream he gets visited by the ghosts of past girlfriends who show him the douchebaggery of his ways. 100 min.

HANNAH MONTANA - G - Musical Tween girls don’t care about this film’s plot because they are going to see it anyway. Everybody else doesn’t care because they’re not going to see it unless dragged. 102 min.

IS ANYBODY THERE? - PG13 - Art, Foreign - This flick chronicles the life of a boy whose unique childhood involves being raised on the English seaside within the confines of the nursing room his parents run. 95 min.

MANAGEMENT - R - Comedy - The son of a hotel owner (Steve Zahn) falls for a businesswoman who passes through (Jennifer Aniston), and risks bear attacks and heartbreak to follow her across the country. 93 min.

MONSTERS VS. ALIENS - PG Animation - Wow, this Dreamworks film’s

BY KATE BRADSHAW CALENDAR@MAUITIME.COM

name is right up there with ‘Zombies vs. Bears,’ or even ‘Zombies vs. Sharks.’ It involves ‘Monsters, Inc.’-esque creatures that must step up to defend the Earth against aliens. Seth Rogen, Reese Witherspoon and Will Arnett lend their voices. 94 min.

NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM II - PG - Comedy - A Ben Stiller-induced security guard finds himself in yet another museum wherein a pharaoh’s curse makes stuff come to life at night. This time it’s the Smithsonian. It’s got Steve Coogan and Christopher Guest, among others, which is what confuses me. 105 min.

THE SOLOIST - PG13 - Drama - Based on a not untrue story, this is the tale of a writer, played by Robert Downey, Jr., who discovers an unbelievably talented busker (Jamie Foxx). Challenges ensue. 109 min.

STAR TREK - PG13 - Sci-Fi - This babe-fest is a prequel to the series of events we all know and love from the original flicks, with a few time travel-related mind humps thrown in for good measure. Plus: Simon Pegg - of ‘Shaun of the Dead’ fame - plays Scotty. I would go full nerd for Simon Pegg. 126 min.

TERMINATOR: SALVATION - R - Action - Hey, you know what cash cow action franchise hasn’t been revisited on the big screen in a while? Only this time it’s 2018. John Conner is all grown up and dreamy. Humanity is on the brink of eradication. Conner leads the human resistance when a mysterious and presumably equally dream stranger shows up. Do the math. 115 min.

X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE - PG13 - Action - This film, which I thought they already made, traces the origins of the dreamiest X-person of all, Wolverine. Hugh Jackman stars. 107 min.

THIS WEEK’S PICKS Piece of Pailolo

If you will it…

Friday (May 29), 3pm, Kaanapali Beach Resort Saturday (May 30), 10am-4pm Sunday (May 31), 8am

Friday (May 29), 7pm, Voyage East, Haiku

The importance of sailing canoes in Polynesian culture has been likened to that of the wheel in Eurasia. Yet somehow there aren’t many of those traditional vessels on Maui, save for the Hina, which is operated out of Wailea by Sage and Liz Spalding via Hawaiian Sailing Canoe Adventures, and perhaps a few others. Yet I hear that they’re experiencing a revival across the isles. It would be phenomenal to see Maui’s waters dotted with triangular red sails when the wind is right; after all, it’s about as green as you can get when it comes to sailing. This weekend, such a sight can be beheld from the shores of West Maui courtesy of the Hawaii Canoe Sailing Association’s 5th annual Wa‘a Kiakahi. It starts Friday with a traditional welcome ceremony for the 10 participating crews. The following day crews will invite the public to come aboard for free sailing canoe rides (register at the HSCA tent). The following morning a traditional ceremony will send the boats off on a race from Maui to Molokai via the treacherous Pailolo Channel.

THURSDAY

Depending on your idea of progress, creativity is either its greatest catalyst or its biggest threat. Without creativity we wouldn’t have achieved any of our major milestones. But it also challenges obsolete and unjust social and economic modes, which is why authorities often discourage, if not outwardly suppress, creative endeavors. Yet people seem to be catching on to the notion that independent, local, original purveyors of goods generally blow the corporate guys out of the water in both quality and style. A Make Believe Clothing Company Hawaii is launching— amid our economic freefall—with a mission that seems to foster creativity. In honor of the fledgling line they’ll be hosting a social gathering and fashion show Upcountry. Food (including pupus from Spago chef Cameron Lewark) and a clothing display are a draw, yes, but the musical lineup takes this box social over the top. A Kettle Prime is among the acts slated, as are The Throwdowns and headliners The Alliez. DJ Del Sol will spin during the fashion show. So, in addition to their ability to generate some unique articles of clothing with an honorable vision, they also seem to know how to throw a decent shindig. Free.

Sirens of Titan

Aluminum Man

Saturday (May 30), 9pm, Mulligan’s on the Blue, Wailea

Sunday (May 31), 8am, Maui Prince Park, Kihei

Mythological sirens embody shameless self-promotion. They did, after all, lure ships to shore with their irresistible song, to the ultimate detriment of sailors. The shameless self-promotion I am about to exact upon the reader has a much more savory intent.

Saturday’s Sirens of Rock Maui Brewfest After Party, you see, will feature a number of Maui musical acts with female vocalists. I am one of those, and will be opening the show with an acoustic set of mostly originals and perhaps a Ten Years After cover (of course I’d be including this show as a Pick even if I wasn’t on the bill—I mean, have ya met me?). The tough-as-nails Throwdowns, fronted by Erin Smith, play second.

Headlining is Mojomana, which has a dynamite psychedelic-surf-blues sound enhanced by Melissa M’s supersweet vocals.

If brewfest wasn’t enough for you, this will be an excellent event at which to carry on with the consumption of delicious beers. So, you know, yay. A steal at $10.

Exercise is highly underrated and even discouraged, it seems. Ideally, those who so desired would be able to spend 2-3 hours a day at the gym, but work and other obligations often prevent this. No fair. But there is a contingent of Mauians who meet up with relative consistency for weekly runs as well as periodic running-centered events. And there happens to be one this weekend, which is made cooler by the fact that swimming is in the mix. The Valley Isle Road Runners’ Aluminum Man event entails a half-mile swim and a three- to four-mile run. Not exactly a triathlon, but also not a bad way to take in the sights of South Maui and meet other people who can’t go more than a day or two without a lengthy, lung-hugging run. Participants are encouraged to go their own pace for this event, which happens seven times a year.

This is most impeccable timing, as many of you may be wondering how you were going to conduct your penance after unleashing the brewfest carbo tidal wave on your body.

Call 878-2949 to register.

CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Self-imposed limits or restrictions are rarely as strict or immutable as people publicly pretend. Given the opportunity to try something they’ve been curious about, with no consequences, and assured that no one would ever know…well, most people would give it a go. Moral, ethical, and practical considerations don’t really weigh into situations like that, as much as people tell themselves otherwise. We seem to mostly need the accountability of other people to stick to principles we claim to hold to heart. I don’t know; having new experiences is rarely, if ever, bad. If fear of what other people would think is holding you back from trying something you’ve been curious about, I bet you could find a way to give it a try without anyone ever finding out. This week is better for that kind of thing than most.

FIRST MONDAY OF THE MONTH

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Realism and hope aren’t necessarily happy bedfellows. In some people’s lives, they never even cross paths. Yet I contend that if you can sit the two perspectives down in a room long enough for them to find some common ground (in many cases this might be quite a long time, indeed), they could eventually form the most rock-solid, unshakeable, and productive marriage imaginable. It’s a matter of letting the two ideas hash it out and work out their differences once and for all; once they do, they’ll be able to live pretty much happily every after. Give them that chance. Once they’re working together inside your head, you’ll be virtually unstoppable.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) One isn’t the loneliest number, not by a country mile. For some people the loneliest number is 3, or 12, or 50. It’s far worse to feel isolated or left out when you’re surrounded by people than it is when you’re actually alone. That kind of loneliness has a much greater weight and impact than the deserted island kind. Stranded on a beach by yourself, you can make friends with a coconut-head or a hermit crab. But stranded at a party things are not so simple. You know exactly what I’m talking about, don’t you? That’s why, if given the chance to keep someone else from feeling that way this week, I know you’ll go out on a limb and take it.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Many parents feel a measure of guilt for the ways they guess they might have let their children down, but nine times out of ten, they’re wrong. First of all, most of that guilt is about shit they could do little or nothing about (being poor, perhaps). Secondly, they’re mostly feeling bad about some idea they had about parenting, not something their kids were actually missing. That’s not to say they have nothing they ought to regret—just that they’re perhaps focusing on the wrong things. You are, too. What’s more, if you figure out what you actually ought to feel bad about, you’ll be able to get over it once and for all, and stop feeling bad altogether.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Upon seeing someone in distress, there are people whose first inclination is to have a good hearty laugh at their expense, and those whose initial impulse is to rush to their aid. Of course, we’ve all had our meaner moments. I just hope you’re not having one of them this week. If you see someone who needs help, please lend them a hand, without hesitation. If you want to have a quiet chuckle about the potential comedy of their tenuous situation, feel free to do it later, after you’ve helped them, with a clear conscience.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) This relationship is like an ancient building so covered in ivy for so long that at this point those vines are all that’s holding it up. Strip all that greenery away and the whole thing would crumble to the ground.

Therefore, I’d hesitate before applying the herbicide and killing that ivy once and for all. It might feel like the thing that’s between you and the real building that you want to see more clearly and know everything about, but since without it there’d be no building at all (only ruins), this is probably as close as you’ll ever get. Try to enjoy it the way it is.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) How many dead ends will you have to hit before you realize that this whole part of town is nothing but one-way streets and no-outlet alleyways? If you think back, you probably took a wrong turn all the way back in Albuquerque. As galling as it is to have to retrace your steps so far, it’s better than racking up the miles going nowhere in a neighborhood you never really intended to visit. Time to refill the gas tank and make a U-turn. Don’t beat yourself up about the time you’ve wasted. Think better late than never, or better yet—consider this the real start of your journey.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Have you ever revisited a beloved childhood movie or TV show, only to realize what a pile of shit it is? Becoming more discerning can teach you to appreciate the finer things in life, but it also usually allows you to enjoy the cheap crap much, much less. Life would certainly be simpler if you were the kind of person whose most sophisticated tastes ran along the lines of professional wrestling and monster trucks.

While I would hate for you to transform yourself into someone so crass, this week you might have occasion to wear that costume—and like it!

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Slash and burn isn’t the answer. Although you might be tempted to just raze this thing to the ground and start over from scratch (and it may yet come to that), there’s a strong possibility that you can happily avoid such drastic measures. There’s much you can salvage here; all that’s required is a discerning eye and a little patience. Take your time, and be resourceful and flexible. Save what you can, ditch the rest, and build things up from there. You’ll end up with something more unique and ultimately much better, in half the time it would have taken to start from zero.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Sometimes the team you’re rooting for just wins, and everything plays out exactly as you hoped. You’d be a fool to think you’re the magic ingredient that made it all possible, though, just as it would be tragically delusional to think you were completely at fault when things didn’t go so well. However, while taking full credit or blame would be dumb, you shouldn’t feel as if you have no influence over the situation.

You have less power than features in your wildest fantasies and most terrifying paranoid moments, but a whole lot more than cold logic would dictate.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Once you gain the ability to climb any mountain or leap any wall, no matter how high, it becomes a matter of choice whether or not you do. What you may be surprised to learn is that some boundaries are better left inviolate; you might not like what you find on the other side. You used to think that every barrier was worth conquering, just because it was there. It may be time to revise that strategy. This week, instead of constantly expanding your territory in every direction, consider leaving some stones unturned and some places unexplored, simply because—weirdly enough—you’ll be happier that way.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) While you never forget how to ride a bike, you sometimes can forget just how much fun it can be. It takes actually getting up on that bicycle and taking it for a spin before all those delicious memories come flooding back. You may not remember how much of a thrill loads of the stuff you used to do was. This is a good week to dredge up some of those rusty old recollections. If you can’t remember why you did something, you may need to give it another go, just to figure it out. Some of it might turn out to be even more fun now than it was back then. You’ll never know, though, unless you try.
