I had no idea that stating...
"He's a greenkeeper at a golf course for rich people on the mainland. Make of that what you want."
...would send you so far off the rails. After all, it was you that told us all that's what you were doing. I post the truth and you counter with all sorts of made up nonsense. It's very reminiscent of the arguments made by the protesters in the contested case hearing that had no bearing on the truth. Fortunately, the legal system prevailed and laws were upheld, something you said people should obey (well, unless they don't suit you personally).
"King TomK is a foreign person to these islands just doing one of his jobs. He has no children, land or real connection to these Islands or it's generous Hawaiian people. He is no stranger to other sites and forums, He Enjoys drinking foreign beers and dealing with folks like me while voicing his opinions on large telescopes and new developments."
[...]
"TomK, you can think and say what you want about me due to my job of choice today, that's exercising one of your rights.
Just so you know, I quit selling various types of insurance years ago because it made me feel like a devil in clothing. I have always enjoyed the simplicity of mowing and working outside on or around golf courses. The game of golf has been great to my kids and i thus far in life. It helps me teach them how to take turns with others, how hard work creates better luck, how to stay humble and competitive, it Helps give them a code of polite conduct known as etiquette, how to appreciate the moment their in, how to stay mentally and physically flexible in life and much much more."
PS. And like one or two others, I'm fascinated by your story of how your family ended up settling in Maryland with Columbus. Surely you didn't make it up, did you?
