Fro-Yo, Yo - Yogurtland Is Where It’s At

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Back in June, my friend Shannon Facebooked me and said to check out this place on University called Yogurtland. Since I'm no longer a townie however, making it out to the University area is not as on-the-regular as before. I told Shannon (and myself) that I'd check it out when ...

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

Duuuudes, I'm Ed Theodore Logan and I'd like to introduce you to my friend Bari S. Preston, Esquire... and we are the Wyld Stallyns! OK, so if you haven't seen the movie Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (circa 1989), you're probably reading this with a blank, "I-don't-get-it" stare on your face, ...

Açai in Ha-wa-ii - Part I

Friday, August 1st, 2008

With the hot summer months upon us, there's no better way to cool off than with an ice cold, refreshing treat. And since we've already covered some of the more popular shave ice joints across the state why not go with the latest health trend in Ha-wa-ii... Açai!? Açai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee), ...

Hawaii Weddings Galore - A Look Back at Eight Hawaii Weddings in One Year

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Since July 1, 2007 to the day, I've attended, count them: 8 weddings. That's almost a wedding a month son! Is it something in the air, or is it just that all of my friends are at that "marrying age"? Ah, it's probably a combination of both. Probably doesn't hurt ...

Pho Fantasy - A Tour of Hawaii’s Favorite Pho Restaurants

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

One of the greatest things about living in Hawaii is the multi-cultural nature of just about everything. From families to friendships to food, we were born and raised in a place that taught us how to appreciate each other's differences. Nowhere is that more apparent in the cuisine we consume on ...

Tokkuri Tei - The Izaka-ya to Die-ya For

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Our company recently completed a weight-loss competition, in which we - depending on how serious you were - stripped ourselves of the bare essentials. For some, these "essentials" included cake, pork chops, deep fried foods, or a combination of the three. For me, it was sushi! Twenty one "out-of-thin-air" pounds and ...

Wowie In Maui - Part III

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

In this third and final part in the Wowie in Maui series, we start our adventures in the clouds. After soaring through the air at Skyline Eco Adventures last month, we head to the highest of elevation at nearby Haleakala National Park to get a different perspective on heights, this ...

Wowie In Maui - Part II

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

We did nothing but feed our faces in the last one di'in't we? And nooo, it wasn't due to the "munchies" silly. It was simply because it was all *I* did during my westerly travels in Maui. But trust..., if you are patient enough, I'll make like Sean Kingston and ...

Wowie In Maui - Part I

Friday, February 1st, 2008

No, the "wowie" in the title is not what you think, Cheech. I'm actually referring to all of the exciting things you can do while exploring the beautiful island of Maui. And in true World Wide Ed fashion, let's take the logical approach and break this thang down by sections, ...

Diamond Head Is Forever

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

Bye bye 2007, Hellooooo 2008! If you were anything like the rest of us, you probably made a New Year's resolution of getting back in shape. Well, lucky for you, World-Wide-Ed's got 'cho back! We're going to start off the year right by taking a break from all the eating ...

See and Eat Seattle - Part II

Saturday, December 1st, 2007

OK class, when we last left off, we ate up Seattle favorites like Piroshky, Piroshky, Le Panier, Beecher's Handmade Cheese Cafe, and Salumi's. This month, we'll be exploring Paseo's Caribbean Restaurant, Umi Sake House and Salty's on Alki, but before then, your homework assignment please. Huh? You didn't do what? Don't ...

See and Eat Seattle - Part I

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

Ever notice that if you combine the words See and Eat, you (almost) get Seattle? Not quite sure what "tle" stands for just yet, but gimme some time and I'll figure it out. For now, let's just go with what nature, er, make that Doc Maynard has given us when ...

We Do It Big Island Style

Monday, October 1st, 2007

When you think "island style," you think Hawaii and our innate, laid back way of life. After two recent trips to the Big Island of Hawaii, I quickly discovered that we ain't got nuthin' on 'em. This here is true, island style living and I'm about to show how you ...

Make Keyboard Shortcuts Your Homey

Saturday, September 1st, 2007

For some strange reason, we've been raised all our lives to think that taking shortcuts in life is something to be frowned upon. But with the advancements in technology these days, it's becoming evident that in no time, we'll be turning that ugly frown upside-down. Using shortcuts for our most basic ...
