- What went down between Chris Brown and Rihanna. And she wants to continue seeing him?
Twitter and Watchmen in the Media
In the media circuit, there’s been a lot of coverage of two topics, Twitter and Watchmen. Here are just a few of them:
From Time Magazine:
From Entertainment Weekly:
Watchmen Graphic Novel at Amazon
Amazon is selling the Watchmen graphic novel for $11 if you need to see what the hype is about.
Dancing with the Ducks
Lame ducks, that is. Less than a week before Dancing with the Stars starts its 8th season, two stars have already dropped out. Singer Jewel has broken tibias in both her legs. She’s been replaced by Holly Madison.
Nancy O’Dell is also done with torn cartilage in her knee. No replacement has been named for Nancy yet. Wonder if the show will change its rules for the first elimination to give the newcomers a chance to catch up with some extra practice time? Have pity Len Goodman!
Incredibad for $2
Amazon is at it again, alluring music lovers with special deals. Today only Incredibad is only $1.99!
There are a few “classics” and some other good ones. I like Santana DVX and Sax Man. For only two bucks, it’s worth the cost.
Kokua at Windward Mall
Had a good Friday at Windward Mall with two instances of kokua. Thanks to the Starbucks barrista for the ice cold half and half and preshaking my drink.
And thanks (surprisingly) to Champs Sports for letting me get my Bright Cactus even cheaper!
No Burst or Current
Had a chance to try on the Nike Huarache Burst and the Air Max 90 Current over the weekend. Sadly, neither fit well so I had to pass on both of them.
Sticking with the Bright Cactus.
Nominate Your Twitter MILF
No, it’s not what you think! We’re not talking traditional MILF but the remixed Twitter variation, Mothers I’d Like to Follow, aka “Twitter MILF.” In the Urban Dictionary, Twitter MILF is defined thusly:
In the Twitterverse, the Twitter MILF is the modern day woman who can do it all. She can impart her wisdom in less than 140 characters, enthrall with her beauty in a 73 pixel avatar, and raise children! Indeed, she is a Twitter Mother I’d Like to Follow…
So who would you nominate as a Twitter Mother I’d Like to Follow?
Barbie Turns 50 and Still Loves Cake
The iconic Barbie is 50 years old, but she still has style and a taste for cakes.
Sparkly! Awesome cake designed and created by Sweet Couture Bakery.
Khloe Kardashian Anti-Valentine’s Cake
Check out this custom made cake for Khloe Kardashian’s Anti-Valentine’s party at the Tao Nightclub in the Venetian Hotel in Vegas. Scary nice!
I sense some local kine stylin’s for this cake.
Love iTunes But Amazon Is My Mistress
While I love all that the iTunes Store has to offer, I have a secret. I’ve been cheating on iTunes with my mistress also known as the Amazon MP3 Store. Yes, Amazon is my dirty little ho. I can find similar offerings on both iTunes and Amazon, but sometimes Amazon offers up a deal too good to resist.
For example, take U2’s latest CD, No Line on the Horizon. iTunes has the deluxe version that includes bonuses for $17.99. Today, Amazon has a special offer on the regular version of the CD going for $3.99. How can you not give Amazon some lovin’ with deals like these? And I don’t really care about MP3 versus AAC formats.
So I’ll typically shop iTunes first, but I can’t deny that lusty Amazon anymore.
