FIGHT!
Seeing brawls on the basketball court is not uncommon, but when female players are involved? There’s something you don’t see very often. Okay, this isn’t a brawl per se but…
Video of the Day: Lady Gaga’s Telephone
Interested in the life and culture inside of a women’s prison. Wonder no more and watch Lady Gaga’s new over-sensationalized video of Telephone.

On Second Thought… Coach Jellybean
After giving the idea of Joe Bryant applying for the Head Coach position for UH men’s bball, there’s definite business merit to this. UH Athletics has been saying they have to run their programs more like a business and that the buyout of Coach Nash’s current contract is a business decision.
Hiring Coach Jellybean could be a business windfall. Just imagine what would happen if son Kobe starts donning UH gear. A few pics of him in public and UH gear sales would definitely climb. Just imagine a photo like this but wearing Hawaii colors.
And what would happen if Kobe could manage a visit to the Stanley for a UH game? Schedule conflicts aside, his appearance would bring in the crowds. And how about Dad arranging some “casual” pickup games with UH players and #24 who might bring some yellow and purple friends. Kanye West would be there.
The UH basketball program would, of course, have to change from Converse to Nike so the team could rock some green orange Zoom Kobe V’s.

So despite any actual coaching requirements, Coach Jellybean makes a good business sense. 🙂
Head Coach Jellybean??
Now this is a surprise! Kobe Bryant’s father, Joe “Jellybean” Bryant, says he’s applying for the head coaching position for the UH Men’s Basketball team. Jellybean has some coaching experience but isn’t renowned for this win-loss record you know.
But on the flipside, his mere connection with Kobe and the NBA will surely attract talent for the Bows. And there could be some creative promotions involving a rainbow of colorful jellybeans.
Could he be the next UH Men’s Basketball Coach?
Sadness, DUI Wednesdays No Longer
Oh sadness, the Honolulu Police Department is discontinuing its online program of showcasing drunk driving suspects. Each Wednesday, the HPD would post mug shots of these law breakers and each week, there’d be a swarm of traffic to this site. Heck, there’s even a Facebook Fan Page for this.
But now, this cult sensation is coming to a close. Sadness.
Where Next for Farmers Insurance?
Where else will Farmers Insurance pop up? They’re all over Hawaii but they’re at other locales too. Just like this!
A Sign of Old Age: Disliking Justin Bieber
Another sign of (my) old age, I dislike Justin Bieber, for no real reason either. Just because he’s (very) young, popular on iTunes, and his newest CD is called My World 2.0. At 16 years of age, how much of the world has young Mr. Bieber experienced? Enough to have a 2.0 version obviously.
Yes, I am getting old.
Here’s a listen to Justin if you’re interested.
Where Will Farmers Hawaii Show Up Next?
Farmers Insurance Hawaii is making its presence known in the islands with a marketing blitz. They’re at the movies, at the mall, and at sporting events. Where will Farmers Hawaii show up next?
Could it be the music scene? Look at what I ran across.
Who knew? Kanye and Farmers? Farmers and Kanye? Sure, why not? I can’t wait for the Kanye/Farmers collaboration collectible! 😉
Wal-Mart Gots the Vudu!
Not sure what to make of Wal-Mart’s acquisition of Vudu. At first glance, the pairing seems like an odd combination. Sure Wal-Mart wants in on the streaming business but is it a right fit for both companies or should I kiss my useful Vudu box good bye?
Speaking of Vudu, did you catch my five-part initial review back in 2008? No? Here’s the links if you’re interested in Vudu.
