iLoves Me My Shuffle!

, , , ,

Even though I got my free iPod Shuffle a few weeks ago, I never had a chance to try it out. Its little green box has been sitting on my desk, so when I forgot my big iPod in the Sienna, I figured it’s time for the Shuffle. I unpacked it, connected it to my PowerBook, and sync-ed up some music. After four hours of charging the battery, the Shuffle was ready for a lunchtime stroll around historic Palm Circle.

The sound from this thing is amazing! I assumed a small, cheap item meant small, cheap sound quality. Nope, high notes, low notes, all good to my untrained ear.

This music player is so elegant and so effective that I have to rethink my iPod use. The Shuffle is great, actually it’s insanely great!

Ryan & Judie’s Wedding


Went to the wedding of Ryan and Judie last night at Ihilani. Had a fun time. Groomsmen and Bride’s Maids’ speeches were funny (and some times quirky), but it’s all good. The Ihilani Presidential Suite is unreal! Ryan and Judie, wish you the best.

And for some pictures…

Dancing Rematch

,


In an earlier post about Dancing with the Stars, I thought John “Mr. Peterman” O’Hurley was robbed of the title. Others on the Net complained as well, so what does ABC do? Capitalize on the publicity and have a dance off between the two finalists. Mark you calendars for Tues, Sept 20. I think the winner is determined by call in votes.

Woo boy, I haven’t seen so much dancing excitement since Turbo, Kelly, and Ozone (otherwise known as TKO) broke it down in Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Club 939 Models: Heidi

Club 939 has a new ad featuring Heidi in today’s Honolulu Advertiser. Grand opening is still rockin’. Check out 939 at 939 Keeaumoku.

I’ll try to get a picture up. (Hint, hint, 939 owner)

Update: Without further ado… Heidi. Is she local? Comment away.

Rent or Buy On-line Music

Should you purchase music from on-line retailers like the iTunes Music Store or subscribe to music services like Napster and Yahoo? Of course, Walt Mossberg has this to say:

But for most people, it’s no contest: Right now iTunes and the iPod are the better choice in digital music.

Hey, wait, he didn’t mention his assistant Katie in this one. She must be on vacation.

Zoom Team Edition

, ,


These white/flint grey Zoom Team Editions are starting to grow on me. Price is right too at less than $80. These aren’t the Jordan P-rods or the Diamond Dunks, but it has some possibilities. I’ve always had a thing for grey shoes though my current rotation is leaning way to the black.

Nike Diamond Dunks in HI

, , , ,

The over-hyped Nike Diamond Dunks dropped in Hawaii today. Going price was $200, and places still sold out in no time. Also known as the Dunk Low Pro SB Aqua/Cool Grey or Tiffanys cause of its color scheme, I’ll have to pass. How do you match these kicks?

Read about the Tiffanys in a raging discussion on NikeTalk. Over 100 pages long!

Check out Fireswamp

Be sure to check out kazuo’s new blog, Fireswamp, Dedicated to the 3 Terrors of the Fireswamp and other whimsy.

This blogging stuff is kinda addicting. Not sure why though. I can see blog-like apps being used for work-related tasks, but I doubt folks at work would agree. Sad the life…
