What Kind of Kid’s Gift Is This?
Just what kind of kid’s gift is this anyways? I admit I don’t exactly know but despite the Hello Kitty facade, doesn’t it kinda look like a cigarette holder? What’s that inside metal clip for? And the online product description doesn’t help explain what it is.
Jake Shimabukuro Knows NBA Trade Rumors?
Jake Shimabukuro surely knows how to play the ukulele, but can he also divine NBA trade talks with it? I don’t know, but Jake’s likeness was plastered all over this InsideHoops page covering NBA trade rumors.
I guess props goes to Farmers Hawaii’s advertising team in charge of getting their new spokesman out there! Clap, clap!
Timely Topic of Public Toilets

Why Are Borders Restrooms So Filthy?
I have no idea why but it seems like the Hawaii Borders locations have the nastiest restrooms. They get cleaned and all, but the patrons just abuse these facilities. Ward, Waikele, and Aiea locations all have had serious issues with their restrooms from what I remember. I think the Windward Mall Borders has been okay so far.
Is there any correlation with Borders clientele and abused bathrooms?
Young Politicians at Baby Gap
With all the November elections and recent coverage of President Obama’s arrival in Hawaii, I couldn’t help but think of politicians when I saw this sizing chart at Baby Gap.

Is Hawaii’s Next Fire Hazard Due to Disney?
These mini hot air balloons are not controlled and go where the winds take them like on top of your home’s roof. Supposedly these flying flames are safe and will extinguish themselves after a duration or at a certain altitude. I wonder how many people will fire off aerials to shoot down these flying targets? Maybe the $13 each price tag will deter some pyromaniacs.

Butt Call
Have you been “butt called?” Here’s the definition in Urban Dictionary.
A butt call is when some clueless moron keeps their cell phone in their back pocket without locking the key pad. They sit on the phone, thereby using their buttocks to dial YOUR cell number.
