With kids drooling over the likes of Kobe Bryant, Lebron James and Allen Iverson, they might not know there there was once a point guard who could play all five positions who had the size of today's power forward and had the skills of yesterday's best point guards. Who is he? He is none other than the "magic man" Magic Johnson.Magic Johnson spearheaded the 1980's Los Angel...

Figure of Destiny was released in the Pre-release event of Wizards of the coast for the Eveningtide set. At first glance the card may not seem to be much. I mean one to cast 1/1 creature?

I could also get an Isamaru Hound of Konda also a 2/2 creature for the same one mana.However if you look closely, the Figure of Destiny  could be...

At $14.00 for a can of 20 tea bags, you'd think this tea was over-priced and not worth the money, but nothing could be further from the truth.Trying to lose weight is difficult and while most of us focus on our eating habits, we forget about the rest of our body, including the systems that we need to support. Our liver, kidneys, and intesines work hard and should be rewarded and kept health...

   This set of 6 PVC pirates from the disney store are fun for the younger age group.  These are PVC and do not have movable parts or small items and weapons that can become choking hazards or get lost, everything is connected. Older kids do not seem to like that much, but perfect for the under 7 set. The PVC is very durable and hard to destroy, which I like to see in a toy. The ...

Elliott Smith was a fairly unique artist. He has an ethereal quality to his voice that is not found regularly in many other singers. His music can be compared to artists like Sufjan Stevens, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Shins, Iron & Wine and, Bright Eyes. His music is very sad, but this album itself is much more orchestrated and follows more of a baroque pop sound. Figure 8 open up with a cat...

It cost me a lot of...

Personally, I was unenthused after trying to the Arbonne Just Go! Orange Fiber Shake. First of all, I don't even like the name, as "Just Go!" makes me wonder if I will be spending more time than not "going" to the bathroom after drinking this shake.So, Arbonne's Orange Fiber Shake is supposed to provide half the daily recommended intake of fiber, but we all know that...

Seasonal flavors pop up during certain times of the year. I find that mixing flavors (vanilla and chai; chocolate and chai) is also fun!The protein shakes provide a great amount of protein (14g per serving), but I do NOT...

This Wooden Railway set is a great, solid toy that will keep kids occupied for ages. It never breaks and it never gets tiring for them, that's why it was been passed down from me to all my four brothers and they all love it! It's simply a train set that uses strong tracks of wood and nice trains based of the "Thomas The Tank Engine" series. Kids don't have to even know what that is to like this...

When a cigarette is placed in one of the holes, at the bottom of the ashtray, smoke comes out his mouth. This figure is made of porc...

When I was young, my favorite show was power rangers, then I noticed that when we go to the department stores, I saw power ranger action figures. I tell mom that I want to buy all of them, and she did buy all of them worth 300 pesos. They have a complete set of 6 rangers, with transforming abilities from a person to a ranger. Then i expand it, that I also like to buy t-shirts, caps and so on, u...

I have always like action figures and now that I have a son of my own I get to start buying them again.  Of course they are for him, but sometimes he gives me an excuse for buying them.  That is the case with many of the McFarlane Sports action Figures that we get.  The newest one is this Derek Jeter action figure.  McFarlane Toys makes some of the most realistic looking f...

One of my newest action figures is the McFasrlane Toys John Elway action Figure.  I love sports and collecting these action figures with my son is a great way for us to share a hobby together.  The Elway action figure comes from the Legends Series.  Occassionally you can find these in retail stores from 9.99-12.99, but more often than not you need to get them online or from hobby...

These little guys are so cute that I am kicking myself for not getting more of them when I had the chance. We were shopping in Target the other day and I was drawn like a moth to the light by the huge 75% off signs in the Christmas section. So what's a mom to do but to drag her 7 year old kicking and screaming over here to see what we can find. The first thing my son spotted was the St...
