Posted by Danny Dang on Saturday, April 28th, 2007

Nike Transformers

More than meets the shoe… With only 2 more months for the release of Transformers the movie, we are starting to see various licensed memorabilia coming out. Nike has gone all out with this crazy mash-up. They have used the form of the Nike Free 7.0 and mashed them up with Megatron and Convoy to create a pair of transforming sneakers. Megatron and Convoy are also sporting a slick set of Free 7.0s as well. They have been released in Japan and will retail for 2,625 Yen. Can’t wait to see more Transformer gear in the next few weeks.

Keyport - World’s 1st Universal Key FOB

Posted by Danny Dang on Friday, April 27th, 2007

KeyportIt’s been a few days since I last posted. I needed to take some “me” time to settle into a new job, also been suffering from Canuck Fever, and trying to collect stamps for the Tourism Challenge (Post coming…).

Any product that can simplify my life always catches my attention. I currently have a set of keys for my house, my car, my office, etc. Why not combine them onto one keychain you may wonder? That would mean I would have to carry around one of those old prison cell key rings, and thats’ not very fashionable… maybe I can start a new trend?

Keyport is going to try to solve this problem with the World’s 1st Universal Key FOB ($TBA) which comes with special key templates to have your car, home, or office keys cut and slid into the Key FOB. This FOB also will have a RFID, Alarm remote, and mini LED flashlight. It’s the Swiss Army knife of key chains. I’m gong to keep my eye out for these when they come out. Stay tuned for a future review.

Review: Joe - Ain’t Nothing Like Me

Posted by Danny Dang on Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

Joe - Ain’t Nothing Like MeIt’s been over 10 years since the Joe’s debut album, “Everything”, and he hasn’t missed a beat. His latest album Ain’t Nothing Like Me brings the familiar smooth R&B sounds that made him one of the kings of bedroom slow jams. The first single “Where You at” written by Sean Garrett features rapper Papoose with heart pouring lyrics (”Damn yo scent ain’t on my pillow case no more / (Baby where you at?) I just recognize I’m livin life alone”). Grammy winning producers Tim & Bob leave their mark on Get To Know Me with the help of Nas. This album also features guest appearances of Tony Yago, Young Buck, Fabolous and Dre.

This timeless set will be sure to be thumping in bedrooms across the continent, there really Ain’t Nothing Like Joe.

Wine That LovesIf you’re like me and knows nothing about wines but would like to be able to pair the right wine with what your having for dinner, then Wine That Loves ($TBA) may be your solution.

“We created Wine That Lovesâ„¢ because we’ve been fortunate enough to taste what happens when food and wine are paired right and wanted to bring that seemingly elusive pleasure to your dinner table each and every night.”

These wines picked and managed by, Ralph Hersom, renowned wine expert and professional wine taster, literally show you right on the bottle what you should pair it with. (i.e. Wine That Loves Roasted Chicken or Wine That Loves Pizza). Five wines will be launched in the beginning sporting some snazzy looking bottles.
