Interesting Nike Ad...



Apparently Tyler has been training with Spidey...she's got some killer moves that I think Jackie Chan can rip off in his next flick.

Everybody Loves Marketing...

I was surfing through some articles on Yahoo this afternoon and found an article link on the homepage. The article was entitled: "7 Bizarre Marketing Vehicles" andI thought, "Heck, I'm a car gal...what else do they have besides the Wienermobile?"

See for yourself...

All I know is that people in Hawaii eat more Spam than most people I know, and I've never seen this thing in Hawaii...must only be in the birthplace of Spam! :)

Catching Up...

I love that a lot of my friends from HS and college are now on Facebook and/or have their own blogs...it makes this whole "catching up" thing so much simpler! I just came across a high school classmate's blog and it reaffirmed my infatuation with reading blogs of people I haven't kept up with as much as I should have...

That said, you can check out his blog here: http://kepani.wordpress.com/

Punahou Buffnblu...Football State Champs!



Like I said in my previous post about Punahou's ILH Championship win, I'm a little biased...

But hey, we're state football champions! :)

Yahoo Emoticarolers?!?



Perhaps they need to focus on their business...it sounds like a symthesizer singing Christmas carols to me.

OMG...ABC!

Anyone remember Another Bad Creation (aka: "ABC")? They were discovered by Michael Bivins of Bell Biv Devoe fame and their first (and only?) album was released back in 1991!

I just found this video on YouTube...talk about the exploitation of children...

The real marketing opportunity in UGC - iMediaConnection.com

Advertisers are missing the biggest opportunity associated with user-generated content. Here's how to tap into what really matters to consumers.

Dinner Last Night...

So hubby and I were having dinner with a good friend last night and overheard an interesting conversation between the people at the table behind us.

It was a girl and a guy, sitting behind us at Thai Beer in Marina Del Rey, talking about...well, just about everything. The one conversation that caught my attention was when the girl says to the guy, "You know something? You know what I really don't get? I really don't get this whole MySpace thing...I mean, I don't understand it!"

Uh...what's not to get, honey? It's really not that complicated.

Then again, I think all the cool people have moved on to Facebook...HA HA HA :)

Woot Off Today...Come One, Come All!

Sometimes, there are some really great things on Woot...

Other times, there is just a bunch of crap...

But, it's always fun to see what they have during a Woot Off!

Punahou...No Ka Oi!





Yes, it's true...the President-elect of the United States, Barack Obama, went to this school. He even played on the basketball team.

Yes, it's true...our yearbook, the Oahuan, has received national recognition.

Yes, it's true...over 95% of Punahou's graduates go to a 4-year university or college.

Yes, it's true...I'm biased because I went to Punahou, but now I can also say that the Punahou Buffnblu are 2008 ILH Champions!

Read the Honolulu Advertiser's article on Punahou's win here: http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2008811150369

Car Chases & the City of Angels...

WEE-OH-WEE-OH-WEE, WEE-OH-WEE-OH-WEE...

Okay, okay...that is a line in the song, "Mrs. Officer", by Lil' Wayne, but it also seems as though you cannot escape the noise that precedes a high speed car chase in Los Angeles.

Maybe I don't have the right mindset, or perhaps I just flat-out don't understand...but I can't seem to figure out why people who speed off with the 5-0s in hot pursuit would rather go to jail than pay the one month in child support they owe (or whatever the "injustice" happens to be). I personally believe it's because they know they'll probably be broadcast on all of the local news channels (if they go fast enough, and be just reckless enough) and end up with their 15 (or 60) minutes of fame. In this example (http://www.presstelegram.com/news/ci_10954131), the pursuee probably figured, "Heck, I already stole the car, might as well get on TV!"

I guess, as the old joke goes, to some, having their own "room" to sleep in and three square meals a day is better than their existing reality...

Anyway...just had dinner with the girls last night and we agreed that we're excited about Britney's post-trauma album launch. You go, Britney...you get it, girl!
