Sisqo Fortold of Lululemon’s Quality Problems
Sisqo of Enter the Dragon fame fortold Lululemon’s current quality problems with their popular yoga pants being too sheer, revealing too much of the wearer. Sing it, Sisquo!
North West
The reported name Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are thinking of for their unborn child. I like it!
Seen at Costco
Just some of the items that caught my eye while shopping at Costco Iwilei. Oh and even though this location opens at 9am on Sundays, they must open a bit earlier. How else can shoppers be leaving with purchased items at 9:05?
I didn’t know glue dots were mainstream enough for Costco to stock.

Costco is up with modern tech too, selling these new 802.11ac Wifi access points.

I found some humor in the placement of the Windows 8 books next to books about Jesus. Not sure what the subliminal message is.

The clothing section was well stocked with piles of clothes that I couldn’t see the top of. Kinda backfires when you can’t easily browse.

I’d guess you’d find these kids books only in Hawaii.

Rose McGowan’s Face
After watching ABC’s Once Upon a Time tonight, I couldn’t quite tell if that was Charmed’s Rose McGowan guest starring (it was). But she looked much different and a quick Google search revealed this top result for “rose mcgowan face.”
Today I Learned…
that the temperature in the private event room of Alan Wong’s Pineapple Room in Macy’s Ala Moana is not adjustable. Supposedly, it is controlled by a facility in New Jersey. Yes, that’s what was explained to our party when asking if we cool off the room a little. Yes, that New Jersey – not in Ala Moana, not in Honolulu, not in Hawaii, not in the Pacific Ocean, not on the West Coast, but the New Jersey that is five time zones away.
Or is this just made up? I’m thinking the policy of the temperature setting is set forth by New Jersey, but actually controlling the temperature? Sounds like a cover story to me…
Spotted at Marukai
I’m not a regular at Marukai, but that’ll change since I just signed up for membership. What did I spy while perusing this little slice of Japan?
See the cool Gundam Pepsi cans? Love the artwork but abhor the $4 price tag. That’s $4 per can, a regular 12-oz can. The Darth Vader Pepsi Energy Cola looks more intriguing since it’s not your everyday Pepsi, and I believe it’s cheaper at less than $3 per can.
If soda ain’t your thing, how about Kit Kat varieties. Raspberry sounds good, but you know you have to try Vanilla Ice (Ice Baby) first. Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it! The other icon that transcends cultures is Oreos. I’m not sure how chocolate pie Oreos look like strawberries, but hey, coming from Japan, I can believe it.
Lastly, this one leaves me scratching my head – Coconut Long Boys Juniors. Say what? Subliminal message you think? The words, “boys,” “nuts,” and “long” with pictures of coconut balls and the long cylindrical candies? This one frightened me.
Spotted at Safeway
A little old by now, but some items of interest spotted at Safeway.
You know you want to sample the Flamin’ Hot Funyuns no matter the burnage that’ll ensue. Pucker up!

Who doesn’t love the sophisticated cookies? After you outgrow Oreos, Pepperidge Farms will be waiting.

Remember the days of seeing Hickory Farms “pop up” locations during the Holidays? These small stores would temporarily open for business, pushing these meat sticks to customers. Be honest, you’ve sampled the beef stick, right? No shame in that.

Today, I Caved
Maybe I’m tired, maybe I’m dispassionate, maybe I’m just run down, but today, I caved. I shoved my entire insulated lunch bag into an already crowded refrigerator at work. No matter that the refrigerator is packed with other insulated lunch bags (a pet peeve of mine), I usually empty out my insulated bag and only store the items needing refrigeration. But not today. Today I’m guilty of the same.
It felt good.
Jennifer Lawrence Is Funny
I don’t know much about Jennifer Lawrence other than she’s Katniss in the Hunger Games. Never knew she was so funny with a quick, honest wit. Check out her question and answer session during the Oscars. Or maybe it’s that shot of booze she downed before fielding questions.
