Ryan Kanno: The diary of an Enginerd in Hawaii

I was perusing Digg early this morning and came upon this post @ Old Grandma Hardcore. Basically, this blog is about a Grandma in Cleveland who plays a ton of video games – and apparently is pretty good at them. Take a look at this clip.

There is nothing more entertaining then hearing a 70+ year old Grandma shout out obscenities as she plays Resistance Fall of Man on the PS3.

I can only hope at that age, I’m still kicking some video game @ss.

So, I’m writing up a blog about watching “An Inconvenient Truth” with a friend this past weekend, but I found the following clip in my inbox. Just to give you a little background about those involved – apparently this clip is a confrontation between Joe Rogan, of Fear Factor and Ultimate Fighting Championship commentary fame, and Carlos Mencia, of Comedy Central’s Mind of Mencia fame. I’ve seen some people getting owned before, but this one pretty much takes the cake of a public rock-star ass kicking if I’ve ever seen one.

I actually thought this Carlos guy was pretty funny on Comedy Central, but after seeing this vid, I think I’ll stick to reruns of Chapelle’s Show. And btw, sorry for the lack of updates.

I’m still mourning the Bear’s defeat…

Last night, my parents, Michelle, Kar, her sister and I checked out a local play @ the Kumu Kahua Theatre in downtown. Being an enginerd, I like to get out from the basement where “they” hide me and keep tabs on what the local art community is producing.

“Living Pidgin” by Lee Tonouchi is an eclectic array of Tonouchi’s essays, short stories, and poetry – delivered via hilarious short-skits (and I stress hilarious) all centered around the Pidgin language. The play was a little longer than expected – ~2.5 hours in length, but I swear I laughed the entire time. Since I know how locals think, this play is definitely worth every last penny of the $16 admission price (or $12 if you get a Credit Back card). For those of you with children – be warned, some vulgar language makes an appearance or two throughout the play.

I definitely recommend every local (and non-local for that matter) to see it – as it appealed to everyone ranging from 18 to 60+. Most definitely the hardest laugh I’ve had in months. So with that said, this play definitely gets the Kanno seal of approval.

Two thumbs up and a super boocuzlidat good time!

I know some of you (Tom) have been waiting for Part 3. Though not as funny as the previous two, still pretty damn good. So without further adieu…
