I Want to Smell Like Twilight!
Twilight’s Eclipse is soon, very soon, and there’s no better way to watch this movie than smelling like its namesake. What’s that scent of juicy berry, soft mimosa, apricot nectar, and warm woods? That’s you bathed in Bath and Body Works’ Twilight Woods!
While not an official Twilight product, you surely can’t deny the allusion to Stephenie Meyer’s creation. 😉
You Better Be Backblazing, Son
Lookee here son, you better be Backblazing all that data. Why risk all your digital work to a failed hard drive? Sure, you got an external drive that serves as a backup, but for the bestest backup, you gotta get save stuff offsite.
Don’t worry, Backblaze is there for you. Install the software, and you’re off! Backblaze automatically backs up your data in the background. But the best proof is to try it yourself.
During June aka Backup Awareness Month, you can test drive Backblaze and be eligible to win an iPad! Actually you and me could win iPads so you gotta Backblaze now. 🙂

Burned by Amazon Monthly Music Sales
Each month Amazon’s MP3 Music Store features 100 albums for $5 each. You just don’t know what albums will be on the list. The June list includes some definite winners and if you paid full price for some of these (like me), you just got burned. 😉
The recent B.o.B Presents: The Adventures Of Bobby Ray
From Kikkoman to Sempio to Yamasa
I had thought Korean brand Sempio pulled a coup detat on the soy sauce served at Kozo Sushi. But not so fast. Kozo has re-affiliated itself with the land of the rising sun by going with Yamasa who has a history with shoyu.
So from my collection of soy sauce packets, Kozo went from Kikkoman to Sempio to Yamasa.
