If you’re ever on the Windward side looking for breakfast, you need to visit Cinnamons. Though it does get crowded in the mornings, especially on the weekends, the wait is well worth it. Here’s a snapshot of their daily specials.
You have to try their potent guava chiffon pancakes.
That was faster than expected. When I ordered the free iPhone 4 case, Apple estimated an early September shipment. Happily, one month early, my Griffin Technology Reveal Etch arrived.
After watching Cars only recently (then over and over and over), I’ve started digging the soundtrack. Sheryl Crow, Rascal Flatts, John Mayer, and all the instrumental tracks are pretty good!
A favorite Friday takeout meal comes from Food Company. Their menu is extensive, but the specials (surf)board is where it’s at!
At the very top of the specials board is a new favorite, the seared ahi with jalapeno ponzu sauce (I call that “jalaponzu”). 🙂
I’ve used the Intense Debate commenting system since November 2009, and it’s worked well enough. But… it wasn’t what I exactly wanted. Sure, functionally, it performed as advertised, but small things added up. The full featured comment interface looked cluttered and only recently, registered comments and trackbacks were not showing up completely. You would see them in the Recent Comments sidebar widget, but the post itself wouldn’t display the comment.
Enter Disqus. This is another popular commenting system that has similar features as Intense Debate. I’ve always envied the look of Disqus’ commenting section, and with some compunction, I made the switch. Don’t get me wrong. I’m still a fan of Automattic products like WordPress, VaultPress, Gravatar, PollDaddy, and more, but it’s time to disqus.
So I watched the live stream of Boinx Labs unveiling their latest iPhone 4 app, You Gotta See This, and viewers could interact with the Boinx Labs hosts.
I said aloha from Hawaii and little did I know how lucky this message of aloha would be. Throughout the show, the hosts randomly picked viewers to win prizes, and I won a You Gotta See This logo-ed shirt! Late last week, there was this package in the mail all the way from Germany.
Cool! Thanks Boinx Labs and You Gotta See This (which is a great app by the way).
Went to check out the hoopla at Heeia Kea Pier in Kaneohe, the filming site of Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides. Though Captain Jack Sparrow, aka Johnny Depp was no where around, the crowds were still coming. We lucked out with parking right at the pier side and stayed for about 15 minutes.
From the distant public viewing area, you couldn’t see very much of the Queen Anne’s Revenge. Lots of props and equipment blocked a clean view of the ship, and those were skeleton props in the cage hanging from the ship’s stern.
The little deli/supply store at the pier must have had more business than ever during the filming. The panoramic picture was created using Boinx Labs You Gotta See This.
I googled “kenmore power miser 9” and this is the first search result.
Not a good sign for our Power Miser 9 and its pilot light that’s been going out recently.
These little bursts of flavor are available at Costco. Not sure how you’re supposed to eat them, but they make a good snack mixed with yogurt.
Just a few foodie pics taken with my iPhone 4.
But no, not all eaten in one day. 🙂
You gotta think that it’s a no-brainer that Apple will be making the iPhone’s FaceTime video conferencing compatible with the Mac via iChat. Sure, iPhone to iPhone FaceTime chats should boost sales of the iPhone 4, but with most Macs coming with video cameras, this feature has to come sooner rather than later.
Is that right? Did I see the Blaisdell advertising Sheila E is coming to Hawaii? After all the years, Sheila E’s still living the Glamorous Life!
