LEGO Halloween Monsters
Halloween monsters are the theme for LEGO’s minifigures, series 14. Pretty unique stuff in this series and all thematic for October.
Holiday Gift Guide 2015: Eternal Light
This is just downright cool. This Kickstarter project aims at bringing eternal light. No batteries needed. This mini flashlight is powered by the touch of a human body. A thermoelectric generator converts your body heat into electricity that powers a small LED.
This $35+ gift could be left in cars, attached to your keychain, or simply stored in your emergency kit. When you need light, simply touch the Lumen and be illuminated.

Smart Marketing Move, Walmart
Very smart marketing move Walmart. In this week’s Sunday ads, Walmart is showcasing Halloween items. They also display Halloween creations made with the on-sale items. You might be thinking, “Hey, that’s pretty cool. I wonder how’d they make it?” Looking on the ad page, Walmart has included directions for the creations…on Pinterest.
Also, each “recipe” names the Walmart mom who submitted it. Very smart, Walmart, very smart.

Honolulu-Inspired Kicks Colors
What do Honolulu-inspired colors look like? According to the newest Kobe X colorway, they look like this.
Influenced by Hawaii-born POTUS, Barack Obama, aka the “Commander,” Kobe’s high top elites showcase a blue palette representative of the 50th state. Not sure if I agree with the blues unless these hues represent the skies and the Pacific ocean. In any case, available on October 14, 2015.
Seasonal Sightings
Have you seen these seasonal sightings?
Chocodile Twinkies.
Spooky red “Muskefears.”
Candy Corn Cupcakes.
Pumpkin Spice and Peppermint Mocha iced drinks.
Star Wars-themed Coffeemate cream.
At the End of the Pebble-d Path?
Am I at the end of the Pebble-d path? First, the original watchband gave way and finally cracked, but I got a replacement. About a week later, this starts happening to the screen.
Resetting the Pebble to factory defaults is the suggested troubleshooting tip but even that’s not working. It’ll reset but then my Pebble gets stuck waiting for an update. I tried installing an old firmware version but even that’s not taking. Maybe I’m doing the steps wrong or maybe, just maybe, this is yet another sign to transition to the AppleWatch.
La Tour Cafe Coming to Aina Haina
Almost opened next to Starbucks in Aina Haina but no, this new location for La Tour isn’t quite ready to go.
Interesting table layout inside. Not sure if it’s final, but there’s one long table down the middle of the store. Good symbiotic location or too competitive with Starbucks?
Bath & Body Works Windward Mall
Bath & Body Works quietly opened its doors in Windward Mall during the week of October 5, 2015. Occupying a “corner” location, this unusually shaped store is fully stocked with fall and Halloween-seasonal scents.
You can sample Vampire’s Blood, House of Horrors, Ghoul Friend or perhaps some Pumpkin Pecan Waffles, Pumpkin Latte, or Pumpkin Cupcake. Click on the image below to see more pictures.
Doing Some Testing
Playing around with Pulpconnection’s theme to test out some thing. Just temporary.
Holiday Gift Guide 2015: Micropig
What do you get your animal lover for Christmas? They already have their stable of dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. So how about a micropig? Not a miniature pig, a micropig. Genetically altered by Chinese scientists, a fully grown micropig weighs 33 pounds at a cost of $1600.
Or may be this is all a hoax and that “micropig” is really a young pig that’ll oink out soon enough.
