Kailua Get One Scion FR-S
Although this picture is near the H3 on-ramp in Kaneohe, I first spotted this new Scion FR-S in Kailua on my morning commute.
You wanna help me win a test drive of the FR-S? Then vote!
Passion
It’s Also Danno’s Birthday!
Ooops, sorry Scott Caan, didn’t mean the oversight, but I didn’t realize you share the same August 23 birthdate as Kobe Bryant and Jeremy Lin.
Happy H50 Birthday!
Jay-Z’s Blueprint for the Brooklyn Nets
Reading about Jay-Z’s deep influence on the Brooklyn Nets branding. Interesting when Jay-Z’s empire collides with sports.

A LEGO Surprise, Part 2
What’s hiding in this Mac IIsi NuBus Adapter Card box?
I found this box on a shelf, opened it up, and found more LEGO!
There are a lot of bricks crammed into this small box.
A couple more minifigures to add to the collection…
Time to start building!
A LEGO Surprise, Part 1
Look what the mailman brought! In a little nondescript brown package, these fun items were revealed.
I only managed to find these three available from a vendor on Amazon.com, but they’re pretty cool. It looks like the vendor felt each package and then labeled them. The gymnast’s bag was actually cut open and taped closed. No matter though since the minifigures were intact and as promised.
Hopefully, this doesn’t end my Olympics LEGO search with possibly a few more packs coming in. 🙂
Kailua Get One Subaru BRZ
At least that’s what I think is this car. Although I couldn’t get a clean picture, I think the rear said BRZ, so I’m sticking with my assertion that Kailua get one Subaru BRZ.
The Return of the Moose Knuckle
The All Stars of Dancing with the Stars take the dance floor on September 24. One of the returning stars is none other than Gilles “Moose Knuckle” Marini who is dancing with recent DWTS Champion, Peta Murgatroyd.
An interesting pairing that you got to watch…
Reading about Martian and Bogon Routes
It’s been some time since I’ve dipped into the network design realm. Reading about Martian and Bogon routes. Didn’t realize these address spaces had cool names now.
I Got (Half)Tone, I Got (Half)Tone
Sorry for the Top Gun reference, but I couldn’t resist when I saw the Starbucks Pick of the Week app, Halftone. Halftone has nothing to do with Top Gun, but this app lets you create comic-like panels from your pictures. Think Instagram meets Comic Life.
Anyways, head on over to a well stocked Starbucks to pick up this freebie. I’ve only seen this app at one of three Starbucks I visited this week so your luck may vary. Here’s a quick sample of a Halftone created comic panel.
Bonus Lana Del Rey
No matter what you think of Lana Del Rey’s musical origin, I do like her musical style. I’ve been binging on her tunes for some time now, and look at this. Four unreleased tracks have surfaced on the web. Bonus!
