Colored Candles?

As a gift from New Mexico, we got birthday candles that burn different colors. Do they work? You decide.

And that other light is from a cake decoration illuminated by an LED light.

This is Genius!

,

Once in awhile, you see something, and you instantly “get it.”  Such is the case when I spied this.

This is absolute genius! What you see isn’t a pair of dice, it’s two pairs of dice. One die contains a smaller die inside of it! So a toss of one die gives you the same result as a pair.

Sheraton Waikiki Staycation, Part Deux

, ,

A short staycation at the Sheraton Waikiki hotel with its Helumoa Playground was simply not enough. I said we’d be coming back, and so there we were, playing in the kid friendly pools and reheating in the hot tubs and eating well. Check out some pictures.

Some of my favorites.

Madonna or Lady Gaga: Who Do the Gentlemen Prefer? Round 1

,

Remember back to Pulpconnection’s un-serious marketing comparison of Shaq vs Kobe? It’s time for another series. This time it’s Madonna versus Lady Gaga!

To lead off this debate, Pulpconnection wonders who do the gentlemen prefer? The obvious scientific method is to seek out the advice of Hawaii’s premier gentlemen’s club, Club 939. What say ye, 939?

Club 939 has spoken by hosting a Lady Gaga Edition coming up Sunday, May 30. Round 1 goes Gaga!

Ultra Weekend 6 at Amazon

,

Doing a quick price comparison on the new Ultra Weekend 6 release shows a better deal on Amazon.  Amazon’s price is $11.99, includes one additional exclusive track, and comes with a Amazon credit of $4 for their Video on Demand Service.  Cost on iTunes is $13.99 for 24 tracks.

Although the track listing looks good, there’s a lot of complaints and low ratings for Ultra Weekend 6.  Whoa, is that Haddaway on What is Love 2K9?

The Pussycat Doll is the Dancing Queen!

Congratulations to Nicole Scherzinger for winning the championship of Dancing with the Stars! Season 10 featured talented performers with a great top three dancing it out in the Finals. Potential dancing queen, Erin Andrews was the first to fall then Nicole and Derek knocked out Evan and Anna with a jamming jive.

If you missed Nicole’s Finals performances, here they are.

Nicole and Derek owned Season 10, averaging a score of 28.1 over all their dances, and they kept their game in check. Derek didn’t get sick, Nicole didn’t cover up, spat with Brooke Burke, or get all diva, and the pair didn’t adopt a dorky moniker. No fail here!

Season 10 of DWTS will be tough to top, not only for the talent but for these hidden gems. Though these gems can’t beat what Gilles Marini showed in Season 8.
