Des, reading your blogs make me realize how much I really miss Guam. It's been three years since I've been back to visit and I have to admit that I have become selfish in my "stateside" way of living that I don't take the time out anymore to find out what's really going on back home besides keeping in touch with my family.

The pictures you have shared and the stories I have read on your blog has taught me a lot. I appreciate your passion for the island.

Take care and thank you for teaching me things I should have learned a long time ago.

Are they the same consulting company that Camacho hired (for millions of dollars) to hold "workshops" back in 2010? They were scheduled at the Yigo & Mangilao Senior Centers which holds capacities of less than 100 people each.

After the first workshop where We Are Guahan hammered Camacho w/questions and demanding he stop the buildup, they tried to completely hijack the Mangilao session. At the end of their state-of-the-art, color glossy and bullet-point display, handouts and bullshit presentations, they wanted people w/questions to go to the specific stations to talk w/their representatives (unfortunately, they were all locals staffing the display tables...).

THAT was trashed by the attendants, but they still were able to shield Camacho from the overwhelming opposition present in the room.
