:: Find Saipan ::

Oh yea, today was a wonderful day in Saipan. The small amount of sleep I got after last nights power outage was nothing compared to what was to come. I was toss and turning last night, I even contemplated giving myself up to the mosquitoes in exchange for a cool breeze outside. Which their wasn’t. Then apparently we had an EMP device go off in the vicinity of Saipan because around 11am. We lost everything, network, phone line, cell phone, and did I mention network. Think about it … no internet on this island .. its mind boggling!

Anyways thank God I had both a Saipan cell and a Pti cell phone on me.. because what do you know my PTI cell phone worked all day. But both my Saipan cell, I-connect both didn’t come active till around 5pm. Man talk about a kick in the nads, I felt sorry for both companies.

Okay did I mention I had no Internet!!

And the worse part I had like buck fifty on me and the atm was down and no one was taking credit cards because the banking lines was also down… it was a sad sad day .

You know for a small country, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands has made a lot of sacrifices in the past. And on June 26, 2007 we have learned of another fallen solider, brother, friend and a dad to many. Former police officer Joe Junior Gogue Charfauros 33 was killing while serving his country on June 20, 2007. He left behind his wife and three children. Let us pray all these brave men and women’s lives have not been sacrificed in vain.

A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.
