In July 2009, the family enjoyed the hospitality of the Four Season Lanai, staying at Manele Bay and the Lodge at Koele for a wedding. And who knew the Four Seasons has an active social networking campaign, engaging customers on Twitter and even giving Twitter treats! In July 2009, the Hawaii State Farm Fair featured [...]
After six seasons, LOST has come to an end, and all I can say is thanks. Thanks for the weekly adventure into the mystical, the philosophical, the mysterious, the fantastic, and always exciting island of LOST. And thanks for showcasing Hawaii and all its beauty and becoming part of our community. That’s how we got [...]
LOST has filmed all over Hawaii including several scenes at the various University of Hawaii campuses. Where you ask? Watch this video montage to find out.
Will Jack take the role of Jacob? Will Hurley be the new Richard Alpert? Will Sawyer be the new Ben? So sad when LOST comes to an end this month.
Leave it to Sawyer of LOST to master the art form of “Son of a bitch!” Here are his highlights over the years. And don’t be alarmed, he says “son of a bitch” quite a few times in the video.
No, I didn’t go to the Waikiki premiere showing of the final season of LOST. I followed along online and watched the events unfold. There were a ton of great pictures, many of them taken by local fans. My favorite pics are of the LOST actors doing the Hawaii-unique shaka. Here are a few… Thanks [...]
LOST actress and humanitarian, Evangeline Lilly, is putting herself up for auction to raise funds to support the GO Campaign. Winning bidders will have lunch with Evangeline in Hawaii, Los Angeles, or Canada (there are three auctions, one for each locale). The auctions end on February 4, 2010 and the leading bids are around $2500. [...]
The pulpy family called in to report the filming of LOST at the Bishop Museum. Amongst the kids exploring Hawaiiana and the scientific wonders of a volcano, Henry Ian Cusick aka Desmond was spotted on set which was decked out like a wedding. So perhaps Penny is on island too? Since the crew is working [...]
After experiencing [re]think Hawaii and TEDxHonolulu, life treated me to a few celebrity sightings. First, there was Olena Heu who looked dashing in purple while shopping at Costco. Then there was yet another Jorge Garcia sighting at a Farmer’s Market. I saw him buying fresh vegetables as I was driving in, but by the time [...]
What did I spot at Ala Moana this past weekend? How about this $175 Juicy bag for a grandmother? Not your thing? How about some Nike Lunarglides? And in case you forget, here’s a shirt to remind you. Awesome (and expensive) Star Wars Lego. And Legos are cool! Just ask Naveen Andrews aka Sayid on [...]
Just had another run in with Jorge Garcia from LOST. I was just sitting in the car with napping kids when I see him going into his car parked right in front of ours. With the kids sleeping, all I could do was wave hello, and “Uncle Hurley” (as the kids call him) waved back. [...]
On Wednesday, there was a strange occurrence in the neighborhood as a film production crew settled in and marked off stretches of roadway. Had LOST started filming its final season? It couldn’t be since missing were the telltale white trucks and precursory set dressers. Additionally, there were no sightings of Jorge Garcia, Naveen Andrews, Josh [...]
Wow, who pushed the turbo button? All of a sudden there’s a bunch of hits coming in to Pulpconnection. Hmmm, looks like the topic of the LOST cake created by the Ace of Cakes crew is trending. I haven’t seen last night’s LOST special, but I’m guessing the show talked about the cake made for [...]
Did you catch this week’s episode of LOST, titled “Some Like It Hoth?” Remember the scene where Miles was abducted by a van full of strangers? Here’s a refresher. That scene was filmed at Miki’s on Lehua Avenue in Pearl City. Even though less than a minute, the crew was there for some time, transforming [...]
While Ace of Cakes was here in Hawaii, they made two of their signature cakes – one for the Army and one for the cast of LOST. You can see and read about the Army’s cake in my previous post, and now the LOST cake has been revealed. It looks like this. Thanks to Jorge [...]
Earlier in the week, LOST was seen setting up behind the Pearl Kai Shopping Center. Today, they moved down the road a bit to Lehua Ave and Fourth Street and took over the tiny Miki’s food stand. Better known as a late night hangout offering ono grinds at 2 am, this stand was transformed into [...]
LOST setting up for a shoot later tonight at Pearl City.
Duff and the creative cast of Charm City Cakes are in Hawaii filming for their Food Network hit, Ace of Cakes. Through clandestine means, I learned about the filming at Tropics Community Activity Center on Schofield Barracks and being a fan, headed there to find a mass of cake fanatics. We waited in the long [...]
At lunch today, my brother-in-law comes hurrying up and tells me to grab my (ever present) camera. “That guy from LOST is here. The one who’s a bad mother…” “Shut your mouth,” I say. “Sayid’s here?” So off I go, looking for Naveen Andrews. Sure enough, there he was walking around, doing some shopping. A [...]
