I guess what’s racy is what’s hot if today’s stats mean anything. You gotta love how random posts from the past get picked up for whatever reason. Today, a pictorial from June 2009 asking if this Victoria’s Secret facade is racy is getting a lot of views. A lot of views!
I wonder what’s so hot about this (less) racy post?
On Labor Day, the visit count to Pulpconnection hit 300,000 lifetime according to SiteMeter. That’s almost one year to the day when this site reached 200,000 visits (just one day off)!
The lucky visitor was looking up Princess Leia kicks and is a Mac user running an older version of Mac OS X.
Again, thanks to all Pulpconnection visitors, readers, followers, fans (and even haters!) who have passed through this site. Can you believe it’s been five years for this labor of pulp, passions, and addictions?
Heard about today’s brushfire in Kailua? Here’s a pic of one of the helicopters flying a water bucket to douse the flames (see the black silhouette in the clouds).
A pair of firefighter helicopters kept pouring water on the stubborn fires. Where were they getting all this water? From the nearby Enchanted Lakes! Watch the HD video.
A favorite issue every year!
It’s okay to drool. Well, maybe not at Reebok’s offerings…
Reading about photovoltaic systems and the installation concerns about flashing, wind uplift, and leaky roofs. Read the short but informative article in the Star Advertiser’s Hawaii Renovation section.
The article is on page 7.
Interesting round of tweets from Kanye West earlier today which concluded with this.
I’m sorry Taylor.

Just in time for the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards. Taylor and Kanye together on stage?
Just one more dark variation of Civil Beat inspired kicks, and this time testing out NikeID’s embed code.
Check out the

This is the generated wallpaper version.
Starbucks is selling its own line of gear at its stores. Here’s a reusable cup sleeve and a bag I can’t understand the purpose of.
Anyone know what the bag is for?
No, I’m kidding… sorta. Justin Cruz is a cool guy, but when I heard the “new” music format on 93.9, I was reminded of Justin’s time as a radio DJ (on 93.1 was it?). If I remember right, he played hits from the 80’s and 90’s, but now Justin’s making a name for himself on television and in social media circles, and 93.1 plays modern stuff. So why the change to 93.9 Jamz that plays “YOUR generation’s ol skool?”
In her Star Advertiser column, Erika Engle says it’s a:
move that will change the battleground for Honolulu’s youth-targeted radio stations.
Odd though, that the music format appears geared towards aging parents like myself and not today’s youth. I mean I heard pre-Whitney Bobby Brown at least 3 times on 93.9 already. Even odder is that 93.9 Jamz doesn’t have any DJs. It’s “jockless” according to Gregg Hammer who (was) moved to 98.5 awhile back.
@geewhy: Format switch… Check them out (jockless). We’ll still have to demolish them, although they are my brethren… Kane killed Able!

So it’s like an infinite loop of oldies but goodies but minus the personalities. In fact, it seems too impersonal, and I’m not sure if I can dig that. Can’t I just fire up Pandora instead?
So what happened to the personalities? According to Flash from the morning show:
all on air talent was let go. i will be fine. i am more concerned about the people w wives & kids whose career’s are in radio than me.
flashee flash

So what’s the shakeout now? Rory and Hammer are still on 98.5 (which is good for them), but I still miss their style. I doubt I can last listening to the impersonal 93.9, playing music from “The Revenge of Justin Cruz”. So more iPod action I suppose…
My Nike+ system just let me know that I’m blue, the blue running level that is. I’ve surpassed 620 miles of running, going from level green to level blue. Next up is level purple at 1553(!) miles then level black at over 3107 miles.
Here’s the movie clip that greeted me when signing into Nike+ online.
This calls for a reward! Maybe some Civil Beat-inspired kicks?
What’s this? Another change on the Hawaii radio waves? I saw this tweet from Gregg Hammer so I need to investigate KHJZ…
KIKI is dead! 93.9 Jamz is born at 12:00 noon SHARP!Gregg Hammer

I knew StumbleUpon was a popular social media service but always viewed it as a dark horse. Who knew how popular it really is.
