TVholic

I have no vice at all. I don't smoke and I don't drink. I am not an alcoholic. Although I am a TVholic. I love watching TV. Watching shows and television series is just a matter of everyday relaxation. When the day is almost over and when housework is done then it's time to relax.

Watching movies is great too especially  when it's free. We can rent videos and movies at the convenience of our remote control at home. We don't have Netflix. Sorry. Paying extra for subscription to Netflix is just unacceptable for us.

I'm looking forward for the return of the WALKING DEAD and FEAR THE WALKING DEAD on AMC. I don't have that much patience but you know those guys had the holidays and we the viewers have to wait for them to finish their production of such incredible horrors of apocalyptic ZOMBIES.

For the meantime these are TV series and shows worth watching this January 2019:

THE GOOD DOCTOR
THE BACHELOR
THE SEAL TEAM
FBI
BIG BROTHER HOUSE (American edition) Celebrity Big Brother
THE BIG BANG THEORY
THE GIFTED
YOUNG SHELDON
HELL'S KITCHEN
ET or ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT
ETALK
SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE - Guest star James McAvoy (actor in  movies: Wanted, Split, Glass) You wont believe that a serious actor like James McAvoy can make everybody laugh until they fart. He is a versatile actor. He should win an award.


 January is not really a slow month. It is slow for those who spent much of their savings during the holidays and slow month for those who doesn't have money. Too slow month for those who are to pay taxes, the unemployed and slow month for those who are just doing nothing.

It's A Choice Not A Chance

My computer was "unplugged" for the past 12 hours! I have to because I want to conserve energy. One of these days I will have to choose SHUTDOWN mode or sleep because paying the internet for connection and paying electricity are overwhelming. My shutdown mode is sometimes a pre-requisite with permission from the owner of the computer. In other words I shutdown my own computer. If I want to shutdown my computer that's my own prerogative.

The normal, ordinary communication that is done through the landline telephone  no longer exist or they exist lesser than what you think. I mean telephone conversation is only a thing of the past or you are the new cavemen because telecommunication is done through cellphones and through the computers. That watching ordinary TV is also a cavemen thing now  because some extravagant humans opted for Netflix. Using Netflix just to gain awards in award giving body is foul.

WTH is going on with our generation? You can only talk or communicate with these people through modern technology? You have to pay extra to communicate with humans with the doubting task whether they are the true real humans we knew about or just proxy?

Just recently, there are two sisters with a fashion/travel blogsite that when you happen to visit their site because they are in the internet, automatically your computer will shutdown abruptly for no reason. It will totally blacken your computer screen. Blackout! These females looked like Korean-Chinese and they are using the Huawei technology. I don't know how many victims they had or what kind of bugs they used that automatically shutdown computers. My computer's anti-virus scanner scanned for viruses: malwares and spywares. Those are the viruses their website had. So I am informing some of my blog friends from Blogger and Google to remain vigilant and do not visit those two girls who love to travel. Let me tell you V & V if you are reading my blogs, you should get rid of your website full of bugs. Also stop your gaya-gaya idea and imitation of other celebrities. Try being original.

Who Does Not Pay?

Borrowed from Octoberfest
I hope you don't mind if I borrowed your postlink Octoberfest. I was so intrigued about this controversial comments from the famous actor/comedian Dick Van Dyke. I like this actor for his movie "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!" My children watched this classic movie so many million times and sung the themesong hundred million times. We bought the video DVD just to keep my children happy.

Now what is his controversial comment about the man that millions of Americans hate? Or rather millions of people have that sense of his anger, hate and paranoia sharing with each other?

Know what? The former Philippine President who was supposedly the second national hero (first of course is Dr. Jose P. Rizal) was named "dictator" by those who opposed the sanctity of the peace, law and order in the Philippines. Some people think that Marcos has that greed for power and wealth that he remained seated for 20 years as the leader for the government. I think you will remain seated in the highest office of the land until you had fully, completed the payment for what you and your country owed (in the infrastructure projects which benefit the whole country and its people and thus, you are benefited from them as well if you are in another countries)  from the IMF. The good thing about Marcos projects are > you can see them and count those blessings. You can see them with your own eyes. They are visible.

There are projects that are invisible and they are worth billions of dollars to trillion dollars to thrill you. Where they go?

 Once you are forcefully taken out from your seat then whoever gets seated will pay for the long duration of such debts. Hard to believe ? Who knows the truth of such contract?

Whoever sits at the highest office of the land in America takes full responsibility of the country and its people, to protect them and serve them.  From Pres. Washington to Pres. Abraham Lincoln to Pres. Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, and the rest will follow...they all suffered certain consequences. How to get out? How to get out from the haunted house? They all got paranoid. They were always briefed on something that never exist in the minds of those who are not working in the White House. You don't see what they can see. Now you see it, now you don't. They were told of what had happened and what will happen. They had the first knowledge and information first hand before you do. So, if they are acting paranoid maybe there is something to be afraid of. You don't know about it because you are just an ordinary citizen and you are not briefed about certain things that your mind can take. You are not the one who will take full responsibility and you wont be blamed for executive decisions. All you need to do is the blame game because who else you should blame? The lobbies? The volunteers?

The Signs of Times: fallout

Sometimes when I don't feel like working because I'm not paid anyway. Yeah, the usual scenario or the most outstanding reason why work when you are not paid.

Don't you feel the same way? Maybe we are crazy that we keep on blogging just like those journalists and writers who are always preoccupied busy with their work. Nobody can deny that writing is also a work, a job by novelists and authors of books. News reporters and newscasters and journalists have that kind of job of writing first their journals before they are broadcasted in their news network or journalists writing their preferred stories or news first before they are brought to public in many ways through the media outlet, newspaper publishing companies or magazines. These news reporters and journalists have their own editor and copy writers who make sure that their delivery of messages are precisely correct and accurate. However the messages are sometimes delivered through other channels and provided by their most trusted messengers.

Bloggers or blogwriters have their own way to justify their own cause. Besides, much of their news or stories are about themselves. That's right we are full of ourselves and if you have discovered that you are in their stories you must be grateful. be thankful that we are thinking about you and we are watching your movies and television series. Viewers are not paid to watch those showbiz personalities and as  a matter of fact the viewers are paying for TV connections, paying electricity, and paying their way to the cinema to watch newly released movies.

Now that the showbizlandia and their stars have also personalized their mark doing their own publicity stunts using the many television shows, social network, internet media and instagram promoting their own exposure to public. Do you think that strategy works? Like they have a page site at Facebook and they also crave reviews and counting "likes" as if that's their Geiger counter. Do they feel the burn? Do they have thousands of moles on their face now and worse of all do they receive scratch marks on their face due to high radiation? Worst of all worst, are their noses bleeding for their "millions of likes" accumulated to be the most well liked human being from the social network? Those are the signs that you are being bombarded by invisible bullets. You are being HIT!

NOTE: When you are SEVERELY HIT BY INVISIBLE BULLETS it's time for a check-up. Consult your doctor. Provide sample of your saliva, urine, stool,  blood, and X-ray because you probably have TB or CANCER by now.

Elementary

What if the tactical strategy of World War II is elimination of educational background, educational certification and only what matters is the SKILLS of such individuals or the people who are accepted in the workforce?

I watched an old movie about a boy who was left behind by his parents who were diplomats in a foreign land. It was World War II and the casualty of war was horrendous, it was totally pandemonium, in a panic mode to escape to another land safer from any obstacles, from any harsh, abstract, injustices, mass killing and elimination of race the boy was left behind by his parents. The will to live and survive had the boy almost in a melancholia, it was a miraculous event of some sort that he survived in this kind of holocaust. I think if a person, no matter how younger in physical and mental attributes but the willingness to survive and have that gutsy feeling and because he is intellectually intelligent and smart he was able to live and escape atrocities. He is smart. The role he portrayed in that movie is one to be remodeled by younger generations. He didn't have University or College education. He was not in High School. He was just a boy (maybe in Elementary School) but what kind of education you had during your elementary years, the primary? It's ELEMENTARY.

You can be a boy scout or girl scout and you probably have knowledge in survival skills. You are taught about how to set up fire and cook simple ordinary food. You were taught to build tent and gather firewood. You were taught about the usefulness of ropes and cords and hand signals. You learned trails and mazes. You were taught on finding clues and evidences. You learned how to swim and paddle your canoes. You can mountain hike or climb up the tallest tree if necessary. You learned about First Aid, read and write. You were taught about law, golden rules,  and learned  all the good virtues, obedience, honesty, friendship, respect and etiquette including good personal hygiene. They are the knowledge of ELEMENTARY. If you passed all these Elementary requirements you will pass High School and College Education.

In that movie, the well experienced boy turned out to be the most highly intelligent and intellectually gifted in manners of survival. Hard to believe that knowledge in Elementary will take you that far and left behind those most highly educated individuals. Intelligence takes no age and no certification to make them valid. It just happened in EMPIRE OF THE SUN.

Expectations

Some one- tracked people whoever they are thought that the only reason why Facebook users use their Facebook account is to post photos. Darn! What kind of  i_____are you?

Let me tell you why so many FB users go to Facebook:

1. FB is being used as their email account because they probably don't have Google Gmail account or no account from Yahoo, MSN, AOL, and Hotmail.

2. They used FB for lurking on other people's lives. Comparing their lives with the rest of their childhood friends, their old classmates from their alma mater.  Which is of course the "drama behind FB." Re: social network movie.

3. Others post their entire family photos, clan's photos and their information all over yin-yang for the next generation to come to introspect and research of their Family Tree is much, much better in details (Archive). Which is true! That's how I want to use Facebook (FB). Which is reasonably a very intelligent cause. Know your family, relatives and close friends first , a study of socio-economic and psychology at its best. Humanities and its nature: mind you we are being studied first by the founder of FB. That's why it always asks: What's on your mind?

4. FB is not yet a chat applet where everyone can chat and debate like politicians. Yahoo is much better equipped in manners of chasing those guys with loud monotones. They know their checklist.

5. FB is for those with BUSINESS to promote. You can be the business owner or you are the customer. Choose your league.

6. You want to meet singles (not shingles) because you are single then your opportunity right there at FB for the search before your biological clock ticks off for no good or your uterus expires.

7. Despite of some negativity, there are good things and helpful advantages in joining Facebook. You'll find that out for yourself.

Silence Is Golden But Silver, Copper, Platinum and Diamonds are also in demand

Did I watch the Golden Globes Awards Night last Sunday? You know I watched it in between changing channels when I found some scenes of unnecessary roughness or when I don't like what I'm watching or who the FP wished to win.

Do you think Adam Samberg and Sandra Oh did a great job hosting the GG Awards Night? I'm not a liar so I think they just did a fine job hosting it. Their jokes are somewhat a satire in nature or parang asar sila hosting it. Parang mga napilitan lang sila. Sandra Oh is the lead role character in the new drama/action/mystery series KILLING EVE. Is she Eve? I don't know. While Adam Samberg is the lead role character actor in BROOKLYN NINE-NINE. To tell you the truth I don't know them so I should not bother.

Cecille Demille Awards recipient: Jeff Bridges 

If you are not aware of those movies and television series probably you don't have Netflix.

So maybe this is partly sponsored by Netflix. ?

After the Awards Night,  changed channel to a movie channel and watched THE MERMAID starring
Cher, Wynona Ryder and Christina Ricci









Who Works When The Government Is In SHUTDOWN MODE?

PRIVATE COMPANIES and CORPORATIONS are at work when the Government is in "Shutdown mode." Are they allowed to work in Government? Of course not!

How long would the government shutdown situation would be? It depends on what is the problem, the cause of the problem and who shutdown its government task. What could be the solution and resolution?

Do you like private companies and corporations to do the work of the Government? That's a super risky business!

What will happen to the overall population, data information, and the many tasks involved in the government?

I know it's WEIRD but do you know how many times the US Government had its shutdown moments? Well, there was once a Government shutdown during the Bill Clinton era, during the Bush regime, and during the Obama's.

Is there a government shutdown during the Marcos regime in Philippines? In the case of national disaster the government had a shutdown because all the telecommunications were cut-off. Martial Law was declared to ease the burden of the grave threat of communism.

Who were called to do the work of the Government? Volunteers do the work without pay, no wage but obediently work for the good of the community, society and the whole country. Just like that. Students in all schools participated in the volunteer projects. There is nothing that you can do when somebody's ego or some group of elite movements are so high and when younger generation set the trend to set a great example of governance not because they want the work experience but because they don't want being invaded or invasion is the least that could happen when unity and cooperation must be accomplished or else fall like Vietnam and Cambodia and plunge to communism.

We all should watch the movie OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN.

Then they tried the Volunteerism during the Yellow Fever. It didn't work! Military Coup-d-etat followed, military looting department stores and malls for food. You probably can't pay wages but to starve the military and their families? What? That's absolutely a big NO. History repeats itself.

How Long Can You Work Without Pay?

The Volunteers work without pay they have honorable deeds that they help without the need to earn wages. They have a cause. But most of these volunteers are just paying LOOPHOLES. They do community service and lessen the loads of the work of the government civil workers.

How long the Government shutdown in one's country?

Remember the yellow confettis and all the garbage that plugged the drainage and sewer system in the city where the Yellow Fever had caused? When the storms came after another causing massive flood? You can blame it to that "fever."

An epidemic and pandemic sometimes is caused by negligence. You can always blame both parties.

During the war when volunteers without experience were accepted in the military...you can count the casualty of young people who died and sacrificed their lives. You can read their names on the marble tombs provided for them in American Cemetery and Flander's Fields.

Why the repeat of this nonsense crisis? Why wait for those assholes to know what is right when HISTORY already informed them about what happened in the past?

The conflict about the security border wall is that most Americans benefit in getting to Mexico when they feel like using their tropical beaches. It's the Americans who benefit into getting into Mexico when they feel like having a grand vacation without the need to fly because they love long driving from California to Mexico. It's convenient. California belongs to whom? Look up in your History book. Dig deeper.  There's no denying that Americans love the convenience of having minorities doing the hard labor paying them only with few dollars. They want minorities to clean and scrub their toilets. Without minorities doing these menial lowly jobs then you'll have rats and cockroaches infesting your houses. Bats will end up nesting on your roofs and attics. Darn bubonic plagues you don't want these kind of plagues.

The Secret

Is it the same old story for news network? What is new around the world? What is left to tell and spread for 2019?

America never seem tired about spreading news around the world. Government shutdown is just for the Holidays, of course! Who would like to work and work without holidays and vacation? Only the robots and the machines. But you know machines and robots wont function either without the programs and programmers.

It's the same old gossip and rumors within showbizlandia. We all knew that they are getting ready with the upcoming Golden Globe Awards and the Academy awards (the Oscars). There are too many festivals and celebrations at the first week of January such as The Three Kings, Golden Globe awards Night, birthdays and anniversaries, feast of Saints (Saint Bernadette and Joan of Arc). The Eureka moment in California or the Gold Rush. The Rose Bowl parade is finished (January1, 2019).

New episode for THE SEAL TEAM. First episode this month, this year: Backwards in High Heels. Nobody's wearing high heels in this episode!? lol.  The story revolves with the Bravo Team with new mission to help the British Security Air Service in their rescue mission to stop the terrorists from further inflicting damage of killing hostages when they hijacked an airliner full of passengers. Clay's expertise as a sniper is once again tried and tested even if he is suffering from being heartbroken when he and Stella broke up and separated. Masterchief Haynes (played by D. Boreanaz of BONES)  asked his daughter to practice using guns because he is worried that she wont be able to protect herself but his daughter reasoned out and left for College and their conversation stopped. Clay had a fling with a stranger, a woman he met at the bar. While Davis and her comrade-in-arms hooked up.

January 2019 should be a new month and new year full of new episodes not reruns and no replays. Why? We all pay for TV Connection.

BIRD BOX the movie is on netflix? Huh!? I first thought this is a brand new movie and should be watched first in the Cinema. Whatever! We are all curious why the people in the story/movie wear eye cover or why they are blindfolded? Mystery set the record straight that secrecy and mysteries tend people to ask questions and their curiosity will lead them to uncover what the movie is all about.
