Major in the Sociology of Fame
Anyone wanting to learn the secrets of Lady Gaga needs to enroll at the University of South Carolina which is soon offering the class, “Lady Gaga and the Sociology of Fame.” What is fame and how do you become famous is part of the curriculum that uses Gaga as its central subject.
If you can’t make it to South Carolina, here’s some vintage Bad Romance for you.
Holiday Gift Guide: LivingColors Lamp
Why do need one? I don’t know, but this lamp thingy does look cool. This LED-based lamp can generate pretty much any color and project it to change the ambiance of a room. It’s like you have to get one just to get one.
Signs of Hawaii: Defecate in the Right Place
Urinals in the men’s restroom are a convenience, but if you forget what they are for, this sign can help you out. You see, you urinate in the urinal, you don’t defecate in it.
Thank you!
Props to @yoda808 for the pic!
Waimanalo Has a Pumpkin Patch
Out on the Windward side tucked away near the Ko’olau Range is Waimanalo Country Farms. Starting this year, this family farm started their own pumpkin patch for kids to pick carvable pumpkins.
Not as sprawling as the popular Aloun Farms pumpkin patch, the Waimanalo Pumpkin Patch is a good alternative for the Windward side. Although the farm is smaller, there are lots of pumpkins, a hay ride, a corn maze, and additional activities for the kids.
Here are some pics of what you can expect.
What else is in the Waimanalo area? Check out Dwellable.com to find out.
Memory Cards Are Cheap

Sharing the Star-Advertiser Picks Inappropriate Images
This is all LOL, but when articles are shared from the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, the randomly picked image associated with the article is the most inappropriate one possible. Check out this Advertiser endorsement for the upcoming Hawaii General Election.
What does catwoman armed with a whip have to do with the Advertiser’s election choices? LOL. 🙂

No UH PPV Problems for Us
For my first ever UH Football pay-per-view (PPV) purchase, there were no technical glitches as reported by some customers. I called Oceanic about two hours before kickoff and easily ordered the game through the automated phone system.
The High Def coverage looked great in UH’s 45-10 victory over Idaho.
This Picture Piques Me
Sure, the loss of personal, private data is not a good thing at all, but I do admit the associated picture run with the article piques me.
Is the image of that Dell server with its Ethernet cable unplugged supposed to help?
