Wierd Shit @ Fry's Electronics

I love Fry's Electronics!  I especially like browsing (ONLY browsing!) at the "As Seen On TV" section where marketing people shovel stupid solutions to problems that we didn't know exsited.  One of the examples I saw was the "Eggies".  This was for stupid people incapable of boiling an egg.  I suppose if you were mentally retarded and lived alone, perhaps having a stove would be dangerous.  Now retards can enjoy hard boiled eggs because of Eggies! 

My latest funny thing I found was this singing Justin Beiber toothbrush! 

Only $10!

I don't know if it is an electric (as opposed to manual) toothbrush, but it does sing!



Aero Shot

Guess what I got in the mail?  I finally got it after ordering it 3 weeks ago.  I saw the product in the news and decided to check it out.  I hooked up my caffeine junky trainer and he felt nothing.  Later on that day I tried it myself and I definitely felt it.  There was this intense bitter lemon lime aftertaste and then the caffeine rush hit me.  It felt like I downed 2 cappuccinos. 

I personally like drinking coffee and I would say this is definitely not a substitute.  It is cheaper than my coffee habit and probably healthier than guzzling 2+ lattes a day, but I prefer the gradual caffeine dose from coffee rather than the immediate rush from the Aero shot. 

New Jordan 4s!

I can't remember the last time I worked this hard to get a pair of shoes.  This time was particularly aggravating because I tried 2 times and wasted probably 5 hours of my life, and after all that my buddy hooked me up with a pair for a paltray $240.  I probably redailed the phone number 300+times in 2 hour span plus 30 minutes on hold.  Then I stood in line in front of the Foot Locker for another 3 hours.  And then I came home empty handed.  I can't tell you the last time I was this agry and livid until my buddy called me and everything was allllllright! 


At the time of this posting there are quite a few of these shoes on Ebay north of the $300 barrier.  So here is an unboxing.

This is the box.  Rather different than the standard sliver box they always came in.  This one was made well.  I was actually impressed that they had a serial number on the box itself.

Jordan 4 "Concrete"

They call them concrete because it kind of looks like you stepped into concrete and have the residue behind.  I would say that this is one of the more unique colors.

It comes with a keychain!  No Nike logo though!

No Nike in the back either!

Nice!

Traffic on the 210 Freeway!

So I was on the way to work and it was raining and we had some major traffic.  I suspected that there was an accident and I saw this.

Check out the semi on the right.  Sorry for the windshield wiper.

Damn!

Freaky Electronic Fry's

I was shopping for hard drives at Fry's and I saw something that was absurd.  Actually it was the lack of something that blew my mind.

There were very few hard drives at Fry's!  This was due to the flooding in Thailand a couple of months ago.  From what I understand, we should have some hard drives back in a couple of months.  Trust me, the locals in Thailand had it waaay harder than us.

Prostitution in Pasadena?

I saw this sign in Pasadena.  What do you suppose they mean?

No-Bagle-No-Bagle-No-Bagle!

When I was in NYC, I encountered another Seinfeld spot!

H&H Bagles!

So in case you don't know, Kramer worked for H&H and they had a strike, for 12 years!

You can read about the episode.

So Kramer goes back to work and something happens and he quits his job and harasses customers.  He tells new customers nobaglenobaglenobagle!
