Kids and Their Electronic Games

Since I owned a game store – people asked me all the time how much do I spend on my own kid when it comes to gaming and electronic games and consoles.  Truth be told – I rarely let the kid have any new stuff – the stuff she gets are those we get at [...]

Entertainment Room

Our living room is also our entertainment room but since it’s where the sun rises in the morning – we can never watch tv or play a game in the entertainment room in the morning.  Well, not until the spouse decided to get some  roman shades for french doors  that we have.  Now we have [...]

Netbooks For Kids By Samsung

The kids have it made in Asia – well Korea for now – for Samsung has just released NC110 Pororo netbook for them.  Light enough that any kid can carry themselves but only a 10″ screen – which is probably enough for most kids – this netbook is meant and targetted for the South Korean [...]

In Time

The trailer was pretty good – so we had to watch this movie even though it wasn’t the kind of movie that the spouse wanted to watch but she liked it very much.  It’s an interesting movie about how people were given time to live after they turned 25 and everything they do cost them [...]

Music Festival & Talented Young Musicians

As I sit and watched the music fest that happened a few months ago  in our town – and remembered some young kids doing things and smoking weed like they didn’t care if there were people around – I wished the town would have a better counseling or rehab center for these kids.  While heroin [...]

ANGRY BIRDS – Electronic Handheld Game

Everyone knows all about Angry birds even a 3 years old plays the Angry bird on an iPad, iPhone or the computer – but who wants to share your iPad with your kids right?  and they drain the iPad and iPhone’s battery so quickly – it’s not funny at all.  But parents who wants to [...]

Kurio Tablet Just For Your Kids

A tablet made just for kids and covered with rubber all around it to protect the tablet from being destroyed from dropping it on the ground by your kids.  Interesting but the price is not cheap either at about $233 U.S. dollars  – would it be better to buy a regular tablet for you kid?  [...]

Friends With Benefit

Finally managed to watch this movie – and even though I normally don’t like chick flick – one has gotta do right by the spouse right? before she turns crazy or evil eye on me.  Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis stars in this movie and it’s about 2 people of the opposite sex thinking that [...]

Wii Guitar For Rock Band

I have just about any kind of guitar for all the game  systems except of course the one I need most for a customer.  A Wii guitar for rock band never seems to come into our store – and when you need one – it’s even harder.  I had a customer who came in to [...]

The Help : Movie Review

I wouldn’t want to watch this movie if not for the spouse – who’ve heard from customers that this was a good movie based on a story book.  And since we’ve just watched a movie by Emma Stone – on Crazy Stupid Love – another chick flick that the spouse wanted to watch.  Anyhow – [...]

Apple TV

Apple TV was first introduced in 2010 and I’ve heard about it – but haven’t given it a lot of thought till this Christmas.  Why?  I can’t think of anything I want – so when the spouse asked me about Apple TV – I figured I should check it out and see if I should [...]

This movie is based in 1979 – about a group of kids who got together to be the film makers of the year – and witness some train crash – that was so bad – the train was totally messed up but the kids were fine.  Only to find out that there was a huge [...]

Yellow Peanut M&M Boombox

I cannot believed that this thing will work – made with recycled material – no batteries needed – is said to be light and you can carry it anywhere you like – and of course – the unique designed used – but not original since it is M & M peanuts candy.  But you can [...]
