Macho Beach Front Row Seating at Pipeline Masters 2008

Member 20 and WOM were front row for the action. Landing on Oahu, with fingers crossed, hoping to see a few heats. Luck would have it, our final day of vacation landed us in Epic conditions at Pipeline. Kelly, Andy, Joel, Jamie, and many of the big names were in the running on the final day. In the end, Kelly killed them in standard 08 fashion, and made mice of men. Seriously, no need for judges, it was not even close. Better wave selection, better tubes, better surfing. Plenty of photos to come, and should have them posted on the gallery. Unfortunately my camera died when Kelly was being carried off the beach. However, MBNR #1 found a good shot on Surfer Mag's Gallery (Photo 31) that includes us in the action - just left of board (Yellow MBNR Hat). Shaka!

RIP Popo

Un regalo por Popo? Translation: "A gift for Popo?" It's a simple question, and one that I've heard many times. If, unanswered, perhaps a sucker punch to the stomach - #1?. But, sucker punch no more, the question is dead, and MBNR says; "RIP Popo."

I now recall my first meeting with Popo, via the entrance of Backyard Bar, Costa Rica, Mid October 1999. I was not prompted with the above question, rather a bold statement: "BEEEEERRRRRR.....BEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR!". The small Tico man voiced this "liquid" concern with a mix of passion and desperation, and I was glad to help. An Imperial drinker, "at the time", I happily clipped off a sixer single for the local Popo. It was my first gift, and welcoming to the "Champ" philosophy. In exuberant fashion, my Imperial hand-off generated his equally vigor reply "BEEEEERRRRRR.....BEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR!"

AMEN Popo....MBNR members will always share some of your passion & desperation for "BEEEEERRRRRR.....BEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR!"!!!!!!

Pura Vida Popo! BEER.

Let me know how it works or if anyone has problems. I don't have any local video on my computer to upload, so I just added a quick youtube vid. Macho Holidays.

Getting Macho

Machobeach.com, currently ranks 429th (off the map) for the keyword search “Macho” in Google. That’s just not macho enough for me…..In due time, I plan on getting us to the top! Wikipedia and specifically those martial art dudes won’t see it coming….

“Mr. Miyagi will soon be think’n, where did these macho fuckers come from?!!”

Image Galleries and Content Creation

Okay. Now we are playing with fire. The MNBR image gallery is now installed. T$ is going to give the gallery some structure, but you "members" should have permissions to adjust as needed. So, let's start adding some image content to this chumpy. That includes you member #?. Heyooo!! To add content, go to the bottom left of this page, and you'll see add content with some options. Add the content type that makes sense.

To add content, start here:
http://www.machobeach.com/drupal/node/add/

If you want to add an image, select image. If you want to add a page, add afrig'n page. However, if you add a page, please coordinate it to the logical menu. I'm drunk. Later.

Robbery Confirms Priorities

So, some f'n scum decided to break into our house last Thursday, up in the ATL. They took thousands$$, including all my wife's jewelry, flat screen, 2 Nikon cameras, water camera, guns, knives and plenty of other shit. My wife was first home, and seeing the door was wide open, she wisely entered with our neighbor to find the place trashed. Upon calling me of the news, I did confirm she and our yellow lab were fine, but within a few sentences, I asked; "what did they take, are my surfboards there?" And, thank god, all 3 boards are alive and well. Full on alarm system is getting installed next week, and hope that Santa will bring me another Shotgun.

Merry Christmas you thieving fuckers.

Adding Functionality

Still working on adding some more functionality. I'm making some small progress toward installing a chat feature so all members can talk back and forth. I just installed a "buddies" feature, which was needed for the "chat mod". I'll keep ya posted.
