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…
Pulp
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.
New Calvin Klein Billboard Too Racy?
Did you see the new Calvin Klein jeans billboard in New York? Here it is in all its fleshed glory.
KGMB9 has a story and some opinions on this new racy ad. What you think? Too racy or okay?
Too Slow with Facesquatting
I was too slow on the draw to talk about the obvious term of name squatting on Facebook aka “facesquatting.” Now that Facebook offers vanity URLs, facesquatting is a possibility and is already in the news.
Coulda had a pair of awesome terms with twuating and facesquatting!
Weekend Pictures
Just a few pictures from over the weekend.
Got Wii? Toys R Us has them in stock if you must know. They also have all kinds of Transformer toys including action figures and voice mixing masks. I’m not sure what this book Stuff White People Like is all about, but it’s available at Borders. Hmm, solid reviews on Amazon.
Team Edward Puzzled
At Borders, I saw this jigsaw puzzle of Edward Cullen. The lineup of Twilight stuff just never ends.
The Twitpocalypse Is Here!
The Twitpocalypse is bug in the Twitter service that is active right now. I thought this was a joke, but the Twitpocalypse is the real deal with minor impact so far.
The Twitpocalypse is affecting the search function in Tweetie, my favorite Twitter client for the Mac and iPhone. The iPhone version of Twitterific was taken out due to the Twitpocalypse.
