So, Whodat?


The Honolulu Star-Advertiser ran this pictue on the front page of yesterday's sports section, illustrating a story about University of Hawaii at Manoa's new head football coach, Norm Chow, with whom many college-football fans are familiar. After all, he did run the offenses at USC and UCLA.

He's the one in the black shirt, black trousers, and lei. The cutline identifies his daughter to his right, then his wife to her right, then two assistant coaches.

But, you may ask, who is that squat, bearded guy sitting on the right of the picture ... the man with his arms folded defensively? Why, that's our governor, what's-his-name. I don't know why the newspaper didn't identify him. Could it be a subtle snub of some sort? Hmmmm.

He is, of course, Neil Abercrombie, former congressman from Hawaii. Which reminds me ... why did the outdoorsy clothing store Abercrombie & Fitch drop the "Fitch" from its name? I used to get some clothes there, now I can't even get into the door because of the loud music that's blasting out of the stores. "A&B," they call it now.

And another thing ... Norm Chow is going to have to get some white or light beige pants if he wants to fit in with the crowd. LOL.
