LL Cool J told us, “I Can’t Live Without My Radio” and neither could former cassette tape maker TDK. TDK has redesigned the venerable and bad ass boom box, and well, the new design has hints of a TDK cassette tape from back in the day!
The Boombox should be available soon.
Ran across this YouTube video inspired by Edward, Bella, and Renesmee of the forthcoming Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn.
The Air Jordan 2011 designed for the Year of the Rabbit is absolutely yummy. The color scheme includes “wolf grey” and the red and gold of lai see envelopes.
And like the other Air Jordan 2011 colorways, the pair includes the interchangable Quick and Explosive midsoles.

It’s almost time for the lunar new year of 2011, and I’m again waiting for Starbucks to get inspired with some Starbucks coffee-infused gau!
One of these days you’ll see it in stores…
For those of us living in Hawaii, we know Hawaii is paradise. But for the millions of viewers of the rebooted CBS television series, Hawaii Five-0, they see Hawaii’s dark and violent side necessitating the elite task force known as Five-0.
After the first two episodes, the tone of violence in Hawaii is set. Cops, criminals, and even the locals are armed and ready to open fire when the opportunity presents itself. Pow! Pow!
Going to a high school football really means you’re going to a gunfight. And better yet, the Chinese Triads and Samoan gangs will be there too.
You won a trip to Hawaii? Don’t come, you might be kidnapped or murdered by a prison escapee.
Okay, okay, if you can overlook Glee’s Football Coach and Physical Educator, Ken Tanaka, portraying a Filipino terrorist then you’ll realize that Philippine terrorists operate in Hawaii.
Surfing is synonymous with Hawaii and its scenic beaches. At the world class Coral Prince surf meet, you’d witness a sniper gun down the millionaire event organizer.
The USS Missouri is a recognized Hawaii tourist attraction, and if you brave the Missouri, a Navy SEAL suffering from PTSD might take you hostage.
A lesson in Hawaiian cooking will teach tourists that a luau’s imu is to cook a police officer.
Hmmm, I actually missed this episode featuring a murder and an assassination plot of a visiting international dictator.
Only in Hawaii are triathlon competitions used to cover up jewelry and bank heists.
How is this dream honeymoon in Hawaii? The ambiance of Waikiki, kidnapped, spouse is killed, and to top it off, the serial killer travels on cruise ships.
During the Christmas holidays, you might find your self with a bomb strapped around your neck. Could happen anywhere.
Yes, Hawaii’s secret is out. We have ninjas. Along with the Chinese Triad, Filipino terrorists, and Samoan gangs, the Japanese Yakuza rounds out Hawaii’s multicultural organized crime.
The influx of immigrants make our nation great. But for the illegal immigrants, don’t take that job to deliver a box.
Hawaii’s renowned tsunami warning system for the entire Pacific? Hacked. But hackers in Hawaii operate out of grass shacks and sailboats.
Tourists, it’s best you be aware of the dangers of Hawaii.
I admit that I’m impressed by weebly.com. I’d never heard of this service before, but Time named it as one of the best websites back in 2007(!). With Weebly, you can easily create a web page or entire blog using drag and drop tools. The service is free and looks like an alternative to Tumblr and Posterous for those wanting to customize their sites.
Weebly is what Apple’s iWeb authoring tool should have been as part of MobileMe.
Now to think of a use for Pulp on Weebly…
What radio stations do you have pre-set in your car? I’ve mixed mine up just a bit.
93.1 The Zone. This is the “jockless” station for me. While The Zone does have deejays, I don’t know any of them, but I like the station’s balance of music.
93.9 Jamz. Playing ol’ skool music, the revamped 93.9 saw a resurgence and is where I go for my Bobby Brown and Expose fix. The station was truly jockless until recently, and they’re playing shenanigans with the listeners. No commercials means no commercials, but the banter of their deejays still stops the music.
102.7 Da Bomb. The most “progressive pop” station on my radio. Sam and Ryan in the morning have some funnies once in awhile.
Krater 96.3. Yes, I am getting old.
Island 98.5. It broke my heart when the Wake Up Crew was transplanted to 98.5 with its Hawaiian style and reggae music format. But after a year on Island, the Wake Up Crew is back to its old self. This station is programmed on my radio and is the station I prefer to listen to the deejays do their thing.
Star 101.9. Star still occupies the last button on my radio. The music alternative is a good change of pace from the R&B, pop, and easy listening.
Gone from my lineup is Power 104.3. The music didn’t really distinguish itself and neither did the deejays.
The boxes of Cap’n Cruch cereal have gone retro! Do you remember these?
As a comparison, here are the current boxes where the Cap’n has color in his eyes and is rendered with more depth.
The retro boxes also include collector cards with fun facts about the Cap’n Crunch crew. Did you know the Cap’n’s first name is Horatio and went searching for the wild man of Borneo?
Sunday morning’s pancake special at Cinnamon’s was “Cherry Pumkin Walnut.”
Cherry and pumpkin (with proper spelling) – an interesting combo. Flavor wasn’t bad and reminded me of Jello for some reason. A short stack was enough of this gooey, nutty goodness. Here’s a picture just as the whipped cream started sliding down the hot mound of pink cakes.
I don’t know what Phil Collins was singing about in Sussudio, but I still love this song!
And Phil doesn’t look like the part, but he sure can wail.
Lego is already cool but look, Lego ninjas! You can’t top that coolness factor right?
Wrong! How about some Lego kicks?? That’s pure craziness and Lego love right there!
Are you confused about the new 4G standard for wireless data? I am. What is it and what carriers have 4G networks? Technically, no one has 4G, but everyone touts 4G.
