haven't gotten through the whole thing, but this part cracked me up:
 
"Before that, when respect was still in force, priority went to the surfer with the most sonority, the result of a voluntary act of deference by those in the water"
 
so the surfer who sounds most like an elephant seal gets priority...?

Someone forgot to run spellcheck.

The rules are simple: stay out of the corner. ;-)

chalk one up for using dolphins as a standard for humanity. oh people and their "courious" ways... endearing article though. it would have been more interesting if the writer took a spin on the meaning of haole. but he probably would have spelled it without an "a" and all the readers would have been wondering why holes can't breathe.

when i was in florida a few weeks ago some guy was sitting in the line up by himself barking and wimpering like a dog as loud as he could. i guess making elephant sounds wouldnt be too far fetched
