Ed Hardy Car Shades
Yes, the Ed Hardy brand has gone mainstream with their inclusion at Costco. Besides Ed Hardy clothes, you can find Ed Hardy windshield shades.
Pulp
Excellent Reading at Ann Taylor Kahala Mall
I must say that the Ann Taylor location in Kahala Mall has some excellent reading material. Lots of classics!
Must be there are a few husbands and kids who hang out in the waiting area while wives and mommies shop for clothes.
The Most Addicted to The Counter Burger Is…
The people have spoken, and the undisputed, most addicted fan of The Counter burgers is none other than Ryan Kanno. @ryankanno garnered over half the votes, beating the fanatic likes of @abaggy and @angelakeen.
Even with an impassioned entreaty for Pinoy support, @abaggy couldn’t keep up with the social engineering of Mr. Kanno. Congratulations Ryan! You get pulpy bragging rights until next time where contenders like @melissa808 are already lining up.
I Love Subtle Songs
Don’t you love songs that you really have to listen to in order to understand the subtlety of the lyrics? Those that make you think for a moment about the hidden subtext of the song. Such as it is for today’s Amazon MP3 special, Jeremih.
For $3, you can own this entire album that releases tomorrow for other music retailers, but Amazon has an exclusive early release. Then you can try to figure out what his hit, “Birthday Sex,” is about.
A Social App for The Counter Burger?
Some initial brainstorming for a social app for The Counter Burger just for fun.
How about matching up tastes and menu selections from other customers in other locations. See similar favorites for new possible combinations. Make suggestions on new menu combinations based upon your previous selections. Name your custom built burger which is then suggested to other patrons. See all names of similar or same custom created burgers. Customers can rate your custom created burger and recommend/share. List top rated custom creations (in general, vegetarian, by toppings, etc.). Build “ultimate” menus of sandwiches, starters, and drinks.
By geography and store, breakdown most popular burger choices, french fries, and shakes. Mobile pics of creations.
For users, list previous visits and orders/creations (along with rating of meal).
Must have iPhone version of app. Shake iPhone to randomly suggest a custom creation to try. Show specials of the month (burger and shake). Find/list locations of The Counter by geolocation. Get directions, phone number, hours.
And there goes the brainstorming as I get distracted by Twitter.
Pinoy Power
I picked up several copies of this icon of Pinoy power, Ben: A Memoir, from Street Kid to Governor.
Even better, I got the leather bound version. Got plans for these…
Biting Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Now isn’t this book cover of Frostbite a total bite of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
A little creativity please, people.
It’s Time to (Pajama) Jam!
Remember Sweet Sensation, one of those hot ladies from the 80’s singing groups? Remember their hit Take It While It’s Hot that starts off with “It’s time to jam.” Consider that a poor lead in to Club 939’s Pajama Jam happening tonight.
Go to Club 939 dressed in your sexiest sleepwear and take it while it’s hot. And if all worked out, you’ll see Mr. 939 adorned with Disney character bunny slippers.
Samsung Hearts Kailua
On Wednesday, there was a strange occurrence in the neighborhood as a film production crew settled in and marked off stretches of roadway.
Had LOST started filming its final season? It couldn’t be since missing were the telltale white trucks and precursory set dressers. Additionally, there were no sightings of Jorge Garcia, Naveen Andrews, Josh Holloway, Henry Ian Cusick, or Sonya Walger. And most obviously, when were there Asian bikers on LOST?
So what was filming in the hills of enchanted Kailua?
Can you believe a commercial for Samsung? Yes, that Samsung, producer of televisions, home appliances, digital cameras, and other electronics. Yet this commercial featured bikers and a bicyclist carrying french bread in a basket. Even I can’t figure out this pulp connection. Somebody at Samsung must love Kailua!
So if anyone sees an upcoming commercial for Samsung set in a residential area with some bikers, please let me know. Thanks! It might look like this (from a reverse point of view. Wow, iMovie 09’s video stabilization feature is awesome!).
Talk About Skills!
Have you seen the mad skills of 2009 Narcissus Queen Lisa Wong? In February, she showed the fans of the Ellen DeGeneres Show what creativity and skills she has.
Life Sized Gundam
If a Gundam mobile suit were for real, what would it look like? How about this?
This a full sized 59-ft replica of a Gundam suit constructed in Japan. Coolness, but how do you keep the birds from crapping all over it?
Local Boy Kobe Bryant
Who knew Lakers Kobe Bryant was a local boy at heart?
Must be all those Lakers training sessions in Hawaii.
Thanks to @valdezign for the tip.
