The people have spoken, and the undisputed, most addicted fan of The Counter burgers is none other than Ryan Kanno. @ryankanno garnered over half the votes, beating the fanatic likes of @abaggy and @angelakeen.

Even with an impassioned entreaty for Pinoy support, @abaggy couldn’t keep up with the social engineering of Mr. Kanno. Congratulations Ryan! You [...]

Call Me Ultra Man

by Gee Why on June 30, 2009

in Passion

Not that superhero dude, but someone who’s into the Ultra line of music. My latest buy is the just released Ultra Weekend 5 (Jason Nevins Presents). On the pricey side at $15, but you do get 30 tracks.
Does Ultra Weekend satisfy my dance music prerequisites? Yep, sure does.

Britney Spears remix – Circus
Sped up ballad – [...]

Softball Emotion

by Gee Why on June 30, 2009

in Passion

Coco Bean posted this story about the return of Tony Gwynn. While a touching tale, I personally find this softball story of true sportsmanship and integrity more tear jerking.
Watch the story of Sara Tucholsky, Liz Wallace, Mallory Holtman and think if you could or would do the same.

The musical impact and influence of Michael Jackson has been around for years, so I won’t add any more to that commentary. On a tangent, but a recent memory of the Gloved One is this Dancing with the Stars performance.

Drew Lachey and Cheryl Burke performed a paso doble to MJ’s Thriller, and at that point, [...]

LeBron James’ signature kicks is getting a new look with its seventh stanza. The Nike Air Max LeBron VII departs the heavy combat boot build of previous LeBrons and goes a little lighter with some FlyWire.

In some aspects the LeBron VII reminds me of Vince Carter’s Nike Shox VC line (the VC 2 and VC [...]

Now isn’t this book cover of Frostbite a total bite of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

A little creativity please, people.

Here’s a great Wired article about how Nike+ is affecting running, not only with its data collecting features but through behavioral psychology.
Are you immune to the Hawthorne effect or the power of communities or earning new stuff for your Nike+ mini?

I didn’t know that the Sound of Music is based on the real life story of the von Trapp family. Yes, there really is a Maria von Trapp (who doesn’t look like Julie Andrews).
Read the history of the von Trapp family and their travels from Austria to America.

Another serious blast from the kicks past! The iconic And1 Tai Chi is making its return though I don’t like this planned colorway.

I loved my royal blue/sky blue combo with the multicolored laces. And if you forgot, these are the kicks that Half Man, Half Amazing Vince Carter wore when he went nutso at the [...]

Look at what Nike is releasing tomorrow, just in time for Father’s Day, the Air Trainer Legacy Pack! This two shoe collection features the Air Trainer and revolutionized Trainer 1. The box itself is killer.

Unfortunately, you need to order the Air Trainer Legacy Pack online at the nikestore.com.

I still remember when UH ballers AC Carter and Mike Robinson rocked these Air Max Total Uptempos. The Black/Volt colorways are being retroed.

Finally got around to watching the pilot episode of Glee, and it was entertaining! Kinda quirky with lots of high school stereotypes, but the music was great. Major props for covering Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’.

You can get the Glee cast version of Don’t Stop Believin’ on .
And speaking of Journey, I had to listen to [...]

Billshrink has this visual comparison of features of the iPhone 3G S, the Palm Pre, and the Android G1.

Wow! Owning an iPhone over 2 years costs $3800! And well worth it!

Rundown of the iPhone 3G S

by Gee Why on June 12, 2009

in Passion

Macworld has a good rundown of the new iPhone 3G S phone along with AT&T upgrade pricing information. A funny line from the article:

In a sentence, what does the S get me?
Speed, swagger, sleek, sexy, sense-of-direction, and sinematography. It’s possible that we made that last word up.
