My Apologies @foojish
Oops, my apologies @foojish. Random picks of LEGO Minifigures Series 7 landed me these two guys. Think you were looking for the daredevil dude.
Funny how this pairing came to be a black and white combination.
Frightening Oreos
Is it me or do some of the Oreo cookie varieties frighten you? Â They just look so unnatural, I can’t believe people buy them.
TJ Maxx Pearl City Has Lots of Thongs
The second TJ Maxx on Oahu opened today in the Pearl City area, and I went looking for kicks/sneakers/shoes. Â Maybe a discounted Air Jordan, an older Air Max, or a not-so-popular Hyperfuse could be found at the grand opening right? Nope, no men’s shoes anywhere, just lots and lots of thongs. Â Dressy ones, leather ones, casual ones, waterproof ones. So many slippers, but no shoes of any type. Â There are women’s shoes but none for the guys. And yes, there are footwear thongs for women and kids.
I didn’t catch the festivities before the store opened for business at 8am. I got there right at 8 and walked right on in, getting a free TJ Maxx bag.
The store seems smaller on the inside. It looks bigger on the outside. I took a quick stroll through the store before the crowds and lines started to build. Â As I was leaving, more and more people were entering.
Sorry, I didn’t take very many pictures since I wanted to get in and out fast. I did capture this panorama nearby the checkout line.
Windward Mall Moving Forward
Gotta keep moving forward, and Windward Mall is doing just that. Check out the store directories now in the mall – shows the forthcoming Sports Authority.
LEGO Series 7 Collection Growing
Got some additions to the LEGO Minifigures Series 7 set. Â The collection is growing. 🙂
President Obama Thrown by a Chee-Hoo
If, for whatever reason, you need to fluster President Barack Obama, just give him a hearty chee-hoo! Watch the POTUS’ expression when he gets the chee-hoo during his speech at the Asian Pacific American Institute.
Giving the Gift of “We Are Young”
Not only is Gilly Hicks dramatic, but it’s where the young people are (and older people who like to sing “We Are Young”). So if you want to give the gift of youth, get a Gilly Hicks gift card.  Just look at the card itself, it exudes youthful exuberance and um, vitality.
Hawaii Five-0 Hotness
Book’em Danno indeed! Check out these limited edition Hawaii Five-0 Nike Free Trainer 5.0. Made for the H50 cast, the customizations are mind blowing. Â “Book’em Danno” on the tongue, “Hawaii” and “Five-0” on the heel backs, and the sock liner with the names of the cast and their respective character names (sorry Kamekona). The colors are themed after the show’s logo.
You can see these H50 Free Trainers tonight as Daniel Dae Kim, aka Chin Ho Kelly, throws out the first pitch for the Philadelphia Phillies game.
I need me these kicks!!!
A MILF Monogram?!
I don’t care what your initials are. Please, someone, anyone. Don’t allow your friend whose initials happen to be “MLF” to get a bag embroidered with her legal monogram. It makes for an uncomfortable or head-turning scenario.
Exiting the Bottled Coffee Market?
Does the closeout of Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf bottled coffee drinks at Longs signify CBTL’s exit in this beverage market?
The Downfall of Swirl Candy Apple?
Is Swirl Candy Apple still open for business in Hawaii? I no longer see the long-time vendor in Windward Mall, and their Ward location has been gone for some time.
Could other bakeries offering candy apples at a competitive cost led to Swirl’s downfall?
Pair Programming
While I’m no software developer, I heard the term “pair programming” before, and this is how it’s done with LEGO right?
