Wait, Whitney Houston Is an Odd-looking Asian??
Man, oh man, what did Bobby Brown do to Whitney Houston? All them drugs changed her to an odd looking Asian dude!
FB Login
So far, most of the basic FB social plugins work with an easy install. Only the Facepile plugin isn’t behaving, but I think I’m missing a step. And things seems to slow down with the FB Javascript library loading (along with all my other crap). 😉
Here’s the Login plugin which will ask you to authorize this “app” to access your Facebook account (which will probably scare off users).
And now the Facepile plugin works… so this Login was the missing step.
Testing Facebook Social Plugins
Just a quick test of Facebook’s new Like plugin.

Starstruck at the Iolani Fair
What can I say? I’m easily impressed or so it seems since I was starstruck at the past weekend’s Iolani Fair. Who’d I see right after entering faux Rome? Twitter-lebrity @farmershawaii. No, he wasn’t peddling Farmers Hawaii gear but was chillaxing with the family.
Even though the food booth lines were crazy long, I waited for a waffle dog and saw High School Basketball Coach of the Year, Dean Shimamoto, working the booth. Even with a championship, Coach showcased his One Team spirit by volunteering.
Aren’t you impressed by the star quality? No? Then how about this one? Guess who took this pic on the trolley ride over to the Fair? 🙂
The Ferocity Is Back!
After a small setback in Week 4 of Dancing with the Stars, the ferocious dancing of Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough are boy, oh boy, back. Their Pretty Woman tango was sharp and precise with the right amount of pace changes.
I gotta give props to Evan Lysacek and Anna Trebunskaya. Normally, I ain’t an Anna fan, but I was compelled by their Armageddon rumba.
Erin Andrews and Maksim Cherkovskiy did a decent Pulp Fiction quickstep. Jake Pavelka was shirtless during the promo and pant-less during his performance. Bruno was swooning. Methinks the Bachelor is safe for one more week.
Chad Ochocino spends too much time macking and not enough time dancing. Daddy Mack gotta impress the fans and judges more than impressing Cheryl Burke. I actually think Pamela Anderson is a genius. Maybe not in the academic sense, but how she understands characters and can play the part quickly and flawlessly. And she can dance.
Niecy Nash, you funny for real, but your time is getting close. Perhaps Week 5 will be it unless Kate Gosselin rightfully goes home.
Vote for Custom Aloha Kicks!
Vans Sneakers is having a contest for custom made kicks and local art students at Moanalua High School are in the running. The Menehune hand painted aloha themes of surfing, whales, and sunsets on their entries.
The Revolution Will Be Twitterized!
Impassioned Jamie Oliver who’s leading the Food Revolution in America has taken the Revolution to a next level. Starting with his television show in West Virginia, Jamie is now online, using Facebook and Twitter to preach his words of healthy, fresh food.
To help the cause, you can sign his petition to bring better food to schools. But Jamie can explain better…
Free Coffee to Save Our Forests
A nice treat to start the morning, free coffee from Starbucks for bringing in my traveler’s mug and at the same time, save our forests.
So That’s What Hella Sexy Looks Like
That’s Nigel Barker who I’ve recently learned is an awesome photographer and a judge on America’s Next Top Model. He’s been described as “hella sexy” but he’s also hella cool.
Barker is in Hawaii supporting the USO and touring various local schools talking about photography and other efforts he’s involved in. He rocks a hella stylin’ MacBook Pro (that challenges the tech hookup at some of the schools unless you can work magic like a Menehune). And most importantly, he’s hella nice, patiently answering questions from the kids and signing autographs for the fans. What a hell of a guy!
