Beyond Apple’s WWDC starting today, Kanye West’s official video of Monster has hit the street.

A Volt in the Wild
Parked next to us was this different looking car. I couldn’t recognize it off-hand, and no wonder. It’s a new electric Chevy Volt that I’d never seen in person. But there it was, spotted in the wild.
What’s So Special About November 18?
Oh just some movie called Breaking Dawn.
Just a movie about a wedding, release of pent up tension, and a pregnancy. See, nothing special.
What’s for Lunch?
Can you guess what’s for lunch?
Here’s the straightforward menu (now with caloric intake).
And also featuring Kona coffee!
Oh, and watch out if you decide to take pictures inside of In-N-Out. They have a strict no pictures policy of their staff or kitchen area. I got a warning about taking pictures of the menu.
Spotted: Eddie Vedder Free Song
The poor distribution of the Starbucks and iTunes powered musical Pick of the Week has gotten better. I initially saw Eddie Vedder’s Longing to Belong in the Aloha State, and here it is in the Golden State.
Eddie Vedder for Free
When you stop by Starbucks, pick up the free code for Starbucks’ Song of the Week. This week’s sampling is from Eddie Vedder’s Ukulele Songs.
Kickstarting a Camera Lens Cap Holder
A simple concept, a holder for your SLR lens cap cover, that should have been done a long, long time ago. You can help kickstart this project and make it a reality. The holder fits many cover sizes so you don’t have to worry.
The Best of the DWTS Judges
Carrie Ann, Len, and Bruno – the trio of Dancing with the Stars judges is a big part of the success of the show. What do I mean? Watch the judges’ best moments from Season 12 summed up in a little rap.
Changed from WP Super Cache to Quick Cache
Was having some issues with the WP Super Cache plugin so I temporarily made a change to Quick Cache. Seems to be working but need to go and tweak settings for iPhone and mobile devices.
Eddie Vedder’s Ukulele Songs This Week
On the last day of May, you can pick up a copy of Eddie Vedder’s latest solo release called Ukulele Songs. Guess what the music sounds like?
You can preorder Ukulele Songs on iTunes or Amazon and is available on Tuesday, May 31.
Timberlake or Bieber?
Who is the definitive Justin? Is it elder Timberlake or youngster Bieber. JB may be gangsta, but Timberlake is “been there, done that.” And he knows how to generate laughs. Check out Justin T. on SNL along with Gaga.
Bring it on down to Liquorville!
Looking at Refrigerators
So many refrigerators out there to look at. We’re going big and French. At least 28 cu ft with French doors. Seems like Samsung and LG own the top spots for French-door refrigerators according to my ghetto scouting at Costco.
Today’s Best Buy ad featured an interesting Samsung with a LCD display capable of running apps. Neat but too many things that could go wrong? Samsung – 28.0 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator with LCD Touch Screen and Apps – Stainless-Steel, Model RF4289HARS. The reviews and ratings look iffy and strange.
But a very intriguing choice might be the LG behemoth known as LFX31925ST. Most refrigerators max out at 28 or 29 cubic feet of storage. But LG has figured out how to get 31 cu ft of space in the same physical footprint of a typical 28-cu ft model. So far, looks like only Home Depot carries this beast, but it hasn’t yet hit Hawaii. According to the Home Depot personnel, this LG should be available very soon. Our refrigerator is stocked with various kinds of milk, full fat, non fat, lactose free, so all this space is needed.
Hold up… seems like LG ain’t the only one with a 31-incher. Within the past 30 days, Sears released its Kenmore Elite 31 cu ft French door refrigerator. Wonder if it’s based on the LG model? Must investigate more since there’s a 30% off Kenmore appliance sale!
