Poll: What Would the Tabasco Man Say?
After seeing the Heinz Hot & Spicy ketchup at the store, I wondered what the Tabasco Man would say about this new condiment.
What do you think he’d say?

Whole Foods Kailua Mixup
If you’re planning on taking your kids to the Whole Foods Market Kailua ice cream making activity, there’s been a mistake. This event was published in the Advertiser’s Saturday paper, but when we called to RSVP, they said the event was an exotic fruit tasting. The WFM Kailua web page describes the event correctly.
This month’s Keiki in the Kitchen explores the wonderful flavors of exotic fruit, courtesy of Frankies Nursery! For keiki ages 3-10. Free; RSVP required. Email sp.kao.marketing to reserve your spot.
The Advertiser’s (premium) web site says:
July 7, 11:30 a.m.: Whole Foods Market Kailua teaches keiki how to make their favorite ice creams.
Hmmm… not sure what happened, but I don’t think I could convince my kids that a rambutan is ice cream. Hopefully, this gets cleared up before the event.
Refrigerator Pet Peeve
Along with my running pet peeve, here’s another thing that irritates me. Check out the refrigerator at work.
Why, oh why are there so many insulated lunch bags inside of the refrigerated refrigerator? Um, it is cold inside the refrigerator, so that insulation doesn’t do much inside the refrigerator. I really hate those bags that are big and puffy and take up so much space, but inside the bag is a small flat sandwich or a can of juice. People, can’t you take your food stuff out of these space eaters and only store the necessities inside the refrigerator?
Now, I take the initiative and rearrange the bags so that stuff actually fits. I’ve gently crushed a bag or two that has a plastic container or tupperware inside of them. I have to take a cue from @abaggy and bring in my Igloo cooler and jam it in the refrigerator to make a point.
Hot Sun, Hanauma, and a Big Dew
What does the hot sun, looking at fish at Hanauma Bay, and a Mtn Dew have in common? I don’t know, but I’m glad I had this big Dew on hand.
Walking In on Google Street View
Posting this for posterity sakes. Google announced its expanded views of Hawaii within Street View whereupon many local mainstream media covered the announcement. Check out how I “walked in” on KITV’s coverage at the 0:51 mark.

Being on television is almost second nature already! Have you already forgotten about my appearance during the closing of Don Quijote in Kailua?
What’s This Dock Dojobber?
Was given this dojobber but don’t know what it is. It’s like a rubbery lanyard with a iPhone/iPad dock connector on the end. It can’t be a lanyard since it’s kinda short. Could be a tether of some sort for your iPhone, but I wouldn’t risk securing my iPhone (or iPad) solely by the dock. If that breaks, you might as well get a new device.
Oh, and it’s branded from Panya Bakery which doesn’t help solve the mystery. Any ideas?
The Next Outbreak of Avian Flu
Here’s ground zero for the next outbreak of Avian Flu. You saw it here first.
But of course, everyone knows that pigeon spittle is perfectly non-toxic, right? So swimming in the  pool aka the drinking fountain for a flock of pigeons is perfectly sanitary, right?
Count the Inuendos
How many suggestive inuendos do you count in this Adidas display?
I count three. What’s your count?
Why Doesn’t the TVPad m121 Have Wifi?
Seriously? After online research, I’ve painfully discovered the TVPad m121 does not support Wifi. Not sure if there’s no hardware built into the AppleTV Gen2 looking device, or if the hardware is not software enabled. In either case, makes streaming Internet television much harder without convenient Wifi connectivity. Time to spend more money and set up a Wifi bridge. Absolutely lame.
The Scent of Aged Ocean Breeze
What does an aged ocean breeze smell like? A spritz from this old, decaying can of air neutralizer, and you can find out. No thanks, I’ll pass.
Disney Store Going Abercrombie & Fitch?
When I walked into the newly renovated Disney Store, I saw this display that reminded me of Abercrombie & Fitch. Gotta put a shirt on that mannequin!
And no, I did not see any Disney cast members doing push ups or squats.
Alaskan Scavenger Hunt
We posed the challenge once before, and it’s again time to set @abaggy off on a pictorial scavenger hunt. Can he find and snap pictures from the following list:
Alaskan Scavenger Hunt
- Dessert
- A scenic view
- Shipboard entertainment
- A towel sculpture
- Two different ethnicities of food
- A workout room
- “Wildlife” (could be interpreted many ways)
- Cold
- Gluttony
Bonus
- Crepuscular rays (aka God’s rays). See example on right.
- Mankini (could be his own)
I’ll make it easier by giving him an open interpretation of the items on the list. Can he complete his mission?
