Norm, you deserve me. Imagine the great pictures you can take with me. Buy me!
Canon EOS 5D Mark II 21.1MP Full Frame CMOS Digital SLR Camera with EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens
And get that sharp L-series lens you’ve been craving.
The Empty Aisles of Don Quixote
Here’s a panorama of the people-empty aisles of Don Quixote in Kailua.
This was taken last week, and some of the products were cleared out. I’m sure the store is even emptier with its closure slated for this week.
Devices in the Dark
Just a pic of some of my techie devices working in the dark of night.
That’s an external USB drive, an Apple Airport Extreme in the middle, and my new Pogoplug on the right.
Robert Frost’s Fire and Ice
Read by Bella Swan to Edward Cullen.
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Then Edward proposes and Bella counter proposes. Oh the love between immortals and mortals…
New Goodies
Got some new goodies to play with…
That’s a Pogoplug (thanks to Ryan Kanno for the tip) and the Air Jordan CMFT Max 12 Fresh Water colorway. More later…
The Return of the Boombox
LL Cool J told us, “I Can’t Live Without My Radio” and neither could former cassette tape maker TDK. TDK has redesigned the venerable and bad ass boom box, and well, the new design has hints of a TDK cassette tape from back in the day!
The Boombox should be available soon.
Could You, Would You Drink This “Coffee?”
There was mixed feedback about drinking coffee from a cup left in the men’s restroom. But how about this one?
That’s a Starbucks VIA instant coffee packet abandoned on the ground. Looks like the packaging is intact but a little trampled. Could you, would you drink this “coffee?”
Flash Fail
Just as Jake Shimabukuro is about to tell the TED audience why he believes the ukulele is an instrument of peace, I get this error. Flash fail!
I guess this is what Apple meant when it talked about the instability of Adobe Flash. That or there’s some conspiracy keeping the ukulele from the world. In either case, here’s Jake performing at TED.
Twilight Breaking Dawn Inspirations
Ran across this YouTube video inspired by Edward, Bella, and Renesmee of the forthcoming Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn.
This Rabbit Is Yummy!
The Air Jordan 2011 designed for the Year of the Rabbit is absolutely yummy. The color scheme includes “wolf grey” and the red and gold of lai see envelopes.
And like the other Air Jordan 2011 colorways, the pair includes the interchangable Quick and Explosive midsoles.

Still Waiting for a Starbucks Chinese New Year
It’s almost time for the lunar new year of 2011, and I’m again waiting for Starbucks to get inspired with some Starbucks coffee-infused gau!
One of these days you’ll see it in stores…
