Kailua Get One Subaru BRZ
At least that’s what I think is this car. Although I couldn’t get a clean picture, I think the rear said BRZ, so I’m sticking with my assertion that Kailua get one Subaru BRZ.

An interesting pairing that you got to watch…
An Easy Going Monday, Fo Shizzle
An easy going Monday is in order after a long week and weekend, fo shizzle.
Reading about Martian and Bogon Routes
It’s been some time since I’ve dipped into the network design realm. Reading about Martian and Bogon routes. Didn’t realize these address spaces had cool names now.
I Got (Half)Tone, I Got (Half)Tone
Sorry for the Top Gun reference, but I couldn’t resist when I saw the Starbucks Pick of the Week app, Halftone. Halftone has nothing to do with Top Gun, but this app lets you create comic-like panels from your pictures. Think Instagram meets Comic Life.
Anyways, head on over to a well stocked Starbucks to pick up this freebie. I’ve only seen this app at one of three Starbucks I visited this week so your luck may vary. Here’s a quick sample of a Halftone created comic panel.
“I Approve This Message” 2012
I approved this message back in 2006, but since it’s been six years, I feel compelled to reiterate my approval. So here goes.
And although I’m not running for any political position, you have to smile when you see this.
Bonus Lana Del Rey
No matter what you think of Lana Del Rey’s musical origin, I do like her musical style. I’ve been binging on her tunes for some time now, and look at this. Four unreleased tracks have surfaced on the web. Bonus!
Two Voice Tuesday
On Island 98.5, Tuesday mornings are designated as Two Voice Tuesdays where Gregg Hammer mashes up two impersonations. You call in with two personalities, and Sir Hammer does his impromptu magic. This past Tuesday, you could have heard a Samoan Linda Lingle, a Micronesian Frank Delima, a Samoan Hitler, Larry Price mixed with Al Sharpton, and more. Did you catch it? If so, take a listen!
Gregg needs to un-Japanese his Chinese impersonation though. Wonder what a Chinese Bubba Fujimoto would sound like? 🙂
Technical Difficulties Kind of Week
It’s been a “technical difficulties kind of week” around here. At work, we’re fighting problems dealing with new software and hardware installations. I’m trying to figure out why my Mac keeps disconnecting from the wireless network. But it seems these tech difficulties aren’t exclusive. While filling up gas at Sam’s Club this morning, each pump displayed this sign.
I had no problem though as the pump quickly filled the tank and took my $$$. Besides potential technical difficulties, this sign has some grammatical difficulties.
“Doritos Jacked Are Not Doritos”
That’s what I thought when I chomped into my first taste of the new Doritos Jacked. I saw these at Safeway and bought them without reading the package since I love me my Doritos. I thought the Jacked was in reference to a pepper jack flavor. But nooo. This Jacked variety of Doritos is physically bigger than regular Doritos and thicker as well.
For me, this “biggerness” of the Jacked threw off the distinct Doritos experience. I thought I was eating generic tortilla chips with some Doritos-like flavoring. It just didn’t feel like I was eating Doritos. Too thick, too crunchy, and the flavor doesn’t carry through the entire chip. I do like the heat of the Smoky Chipotle BBQ flavor though.
The Impulsive Buy has a better review of Doritos Jacked, but I won’t be buying these again.

Ala Moana in the Morning
You saw what Pearlridge looked like in the morning. How about Ala Moana on a weekday morning right around 8 am.
A nice, leisurely walk before class started in the morning.
