Amazing Race 2019

Two hour finale episode for THE AMAZING RACE 2019. From London, England to Detroit, Michigan. London to Detroit. UK to USA. Some of the legs of the race they had were nothing as sort of running errands but their strength, courage without fear in being hoist down the tall building with just a harness and ropes tied to their body? That's totally scary. Some contestants memory are so amazing especially in decoding important military messages: FAITH PREVAIL EVIL.
and the Dunkirk message that they will never surrender. You should watch the movie DUNKIRK.

One minute of rowing a boat to a designated point that's incredible. A lot of practice for such incredible race. Only Christie and Colin team was able to do such boat race (how many hours to be at such point in just 59 seconds?) Olympic athletes do such thing perfectly in years of practice. Colin and Christie probably are very athletic and had tried that before. And for Colin to open the bank vault with ease, easy as pie? WoW! Holy mammoth! That's totally, totally incredible, unbelievable. Colin's probably "James Bond." lol

Colin & Christie won the AMAZING RACE 2019 and all its glory winning the million dollar prize.

 Tyler & Korey came in 2nd (although they won so many prizes in many legs of the race arriving at the PIT STOP)

 and Jamal and Leo came in 3rd.

Colin & Christie, Tyler & Korey, Jamal & Leo were previous teams who already been contestants on AMAZING RACE. They are the "repeaters."

AMAZING RACE CANADA will begin on July 2, 2019.

IF Global warming Is REAL?

Global warming is so real and surreal in many parts of the EARTH. We are experiencing global warming every now and then. It is not as cold or cool at summer time anymore. When there is global warming even if the countries are located somewhere in the North Pole or South Pole there is a huge problem. The water is decreasing.

When you add the population of a certain country that is already having problem with unusual problem of global warming and water consumption what could be the effect?

The wildfire that consumed hundred thousands of houses and business establishments in Fort McMurray, do you think they move back to their new homes or found new homes in another city? After so many wildfires that left so many thousands homeless and can't find homes to live and settle... do you want to accept refugees from other countries so that your own people will fight to find places to call their homes?

Not all land or vacant land in Canada is good for living or settling in. Many of these lands are tundra, some lands are barren and once desertlands. Some parts of the lands are for oil and gas drills. The tundras... maybe you can build wigwams or teeppees on them. Build tents for people to live in. So, same thing it's like refugees. You don't even have good housing facilities for the Natives and then to accept millions of refugees? I think charity begins at home. Look at the welfare of your own people first! Don't create doubts on them and do not create civil war. Do not take and create problems that belong to the problems of others. Do not hammer your own head!

Not because there is abundance of resources you are to give them away for free. Are you not thinking of the future of your own people? It's not being greedy but being wise in times of unforeseen calamities and uncertainties. If global warming is real there is not enough WATER.
WATER IS SCARCE and you'll be fighting for it to death.

Is your charity of supplying food, medicines and other resources not enough for those refugees? You want them here in Canada for what? Their problems are problems of their own countries of origin and their leaders from where they came from. The United Nations must take the dictator leader of that country OUT from his dictatorship, END OF PROBLEM.

Fear The Walking Dead

Episode: Humbug's Gulch? What? Strange episode eh?

Well, it's not Alicia who get the chance to have those rifles and other firearms, instead John Dorie and June were the first team to arrive at the Texan old village, dusty and dilapidated as if its been there since 18th Century. Tumbleweeds rolling like crazy, so much dust because there is dust storm and what else could be down there? They entered a tavern and surprise of all surprises there are clothes, coats hanging up from the clothes rack, there are bottles of wines, there is an armory of weapons, rifles, guns and boxes of bullets. They didn't stay at the store instead they decided to get out and find their car, however somebody fired at them and their vehicle was hit by bullets. They are two of them against one lone gunman who happened to be the guy from The walking Dead series, it was Dwight. June and Dorie didn't kill him instead captured him and tied his hands and June applied medicine on Dwight's bleeding arm. They exchanged stories about their plights how the apocalyptic world had changed their lives. How to convince Dwight not to commit suicide takes a long dramatic sequences until they were surrounded by zombies. To save Dwight from zombies is losing so many of the bullets gathered from the tavern. Anyway, John Dorie showed his gun-toting skills when he eliminated so many zombies.

What happened to Alicia? She was paired with injured Luciana and they traveled to meet John and June only then their vehicle met an accident on the road. Yey! Flat tires. The hero Morgan who is always looking forward to give help came to the rescue. Then their team met John and June + Dwight at the "Jango's Texan HQ." Whatever you may call that village. Then somehow, Alicia's walkie- talkie is receiving messages from the 3 kids. They tried to help them only to find those zombies  side by side with each other chained by long guts tied around their bodies used as barrier. Who the mastermind of those "chain of zombies on the roads?" The 3 kids.

To be continued.

What happened to TALKING DEAD? It's been two weeks now that Chris Hardwick's Talking Dead Live was not aired for viewing. I wonder why.

T. RAPTORS 2019 Champ

CONGRATULATIONS TORONTO RAPTORS for winning the FIRST EVER NBA Championship 2019. It took 24 years before this one incredible WIN. 24! It must be the luckiest number. I hope it will bring you guys more luck in the next years to come.

24 is the lucky number for so many incredible athletes in basketball and baseball. Hockey players and football players should also take number 24 for their jersey numbers.

It's the Toronto Raptors Day Parade today in Toronto, Ontario to commemorate their first winning the game against Golden State Warriors team (California). Millions of people watched them on TV, hundreds of thousands (could be 100,000 to 500,000+) of people gathered and joined the parade but many onlookers were there to celebrate too with the Raptors, took the chance to use their selfies, their cameras, go-pro, videos and maybe their chance to shake hands with them have photo-shoot ops. Maybe this time, the fanatics can relax, sleep much better and take time to be with their families instead of screaming and idolizing their "icons" at the basketball arena to Jurassic Park, to the many pubs, restaurants and beer houses where widescreen TV operate and thus able to watch their favorite basketball team. These fanatics can go to sleep and relax rest assured that everything's gonna be alright now that their team has won and their vigil and vigilance has earned them the spots. The SUNSPOTs and SPOTLIGHTS. Sure, it's HISTORICAL EVENT.  It's now part of HISTORY.

Your Nose Is The Nearest Bridge

Every time SAVING PRIVATE RYAN is on TV for free viewing I can't manage to watch the whole complete story. At first was able to watch the last 30 minutes before the ending or the middle of the movie but I haven't had the chance to watch the beginning of the movie on how and why there is a need to save Private Ryan when there are other hundreds to thousands of soldiers who volunteered that even Private Ryan was also surprised of the significance of "why he needs to go home" leave the war behind and be with his Mother. Well, because 3 of his brothers already served and died in that war. At first was thinking that somehow the order was kind of a trick, a game, or a code during the war and maybe the true Private James Ryan was a soldier of royalty and he doesn't need to serve and lose his life nor sacrifice his life and this group of soldiers will be the "sacrifice or sacrificial lambs instead of him."

Anyway, the movie was aired again. I missed the first 25 minutes of the movie. I get to the scene when a bag of stainless dog tags were then scrutinized one by one in search for the name inscribed on those bloody tags. Soldiers coming home from war whose all eyes looking in bewilderment, confused and shocked at what they are doing.

The ending of the movie is somewhat uncalled for. The group who were to rescue Private Ryan stayed with the rest of the troops (Airborne) because Private Ryan (played by Matt Damon) wont leave the bridge that he promised to defend. The building and infrastructures in that war torn city was already damaged and all it needs was to demolish it further and build new ones. However, the Americans were outnumbered by their enemies (Germans) who are well equipped with artillery and they have war tanks. Capt. Miller (Tom Hanks) fought until death in the middle of the bridge.The Captain was actually the Grammar teacher. Too bad that it was kind of late when the war planes arrived for back up. Pvt James Ryan survived in this tragic ending.

Another story of expendables at very early stage of infrastructure from the Old World to the New World stage # _____? It's the same theme and ideas since the very beginning of time. After the infrastructure is built and managed in order then the developers have to sell those skyscrapers and ultra-modern facilities. Without war, the situation is more likely called realtors who borrowed lots of money from the banks take charge in the development of modern facilities, and properties and then sell those realty properties to new owners. BUSINESS. That's what happened in Bosnia. Will it happen here in Canada? In the 1900's to colonize small islands with less population is the only option of the members of the "Axis of Evil." The group of AOE was written in History Book. It was there for students to learn about certain History of what really happened during World War I and World War II. They can't do this kind of war anymore. You cannot fool millions of educated people who owned modern high tech computers and gadgets.

How many war stories end up in this tragedy of rescue when the rescuers died first? Numerous stories that saving another life or lives would mean your life is at stake. That maybe, the future of war would be fought by drones only. Robots vs robots. War Robots and androids manned and monitored by humans who are skilled in modern warfare.

Chances Are ...


I'm not amused at the FEAR The Walking Dead anymore, it seems that Alicia's role or part has been demoted to just the person who kills the zombies just to save the rest of the cast. Alicia being the strongest and the youngest among the group of survivors (Charlie is the youngest however, she is not physically strong to kill the zombies unless of course if she has gun). Alicia's role  has been weightless since the demise of Madison (her Mother in this series). However, her persona was uplifted during her encounter with Charlie (the girl who killed Alicia's brother Nick). It was one of the dramatic episode of how to survive with a person whom you hate and killed your brother and save that girl from drowning in the basement. It takes a lot of guts right? The story should revolve around her and please give her another weapon, not the broken spare part of an  armalite nor a broken part of a plane's propeller. Give Alicia an UZI or a high powered rifle with telescope. She should be a sniper by now.

Alicia is a good actress and action star too... it's just you have to give her better script. She was injured but she keep on fighting. She doesn't complain unlike other women in that series. I don't know why Morgan stopped her from saving them. Don't give that woman a romance skit. Morgan and Victor should just leave her alone. FGS! Oh, I know...remember the woman who was wearing the hazmat suit? Alicia was being attack by vicious, rabid mutants who were trapped on muddy, slippery part of the ground, first thought it was a quick sand but able to almost grab Alicia while those two standbys the woman and Morgan were too slow to act to even help her? That's how slow their act. Alicia could have been eaten by zombies. That scene was hilarious. It's like a scene that if Alicia could survive then the hazmat suit woman will stay and partnered with Morgan. However, Alicia was able to survive on her own then the other woman decided to drive off and left the two behind besides, it turned out she was already infected. Duh! Crazy!They were in Texas. What kind of toxic waste in Texas?

I think the episodes leading to the ending is the search for "pairs." John Dorie and June, the truckers, the pair between Charlie and Victor Strand didn't materialize. Victor found Salazar who was guarding a hangar with different vehicles inside, and a plane. Salazar didn't buy Victor's plan because every time he helped other people it just ruined everything. Morgan and Alicia? I don't think so. Maybe Alicia needs to find a partner as she was able to go solo in the first, second season of this series. Althea can go solo provided that she has the SWAT truck with amunitions but since Victor had the truck parked somewhere else. Althea was missing. ?  I don't know what and how this series needs to revive its strength. We missed Madison, is she really dead? They didn't show that zombies had her down and eaten alive. I remember she built a secret door in that stadium where she can escape when the attack happens. I think she is still alive. How they can bring her back means double creativity of a great entrance for her. Even the guy (Justin?) inside the car who was being attacked by zombies, I think he was able to escape. Salazar who we thought has died was alive, so that's mind boggling of a drama how that happened that he is alive? Victor's probably dreaming or having a nightmare. Then the news of Dwight's appearance on Fear The Walking Dead? Weird! Maybe there's also a chance that Maggie Greene will also come alive in Fear TWD. OMG! That would be very exciting eh?

In THE WALKING DEAD series, words of mouth and news that Rick Grimes will die in TWD series yet the sudden change of script was prepared for him when he was saved by Jadis and they were rescued by helicopter pilot to be taken to unknown destination. The chance of Rick's return to TWD is inevitable. There's a chance. If Rick has a chance so is Madison and Maggie Greene. Hopelessly, there is no chance for Glenn to be revived unless if he came as a different person with different name and another incredible part for the series. Things happen for a reason.

Sumthing New?

A long marathon of  "fear The Walking Dead" from morning until the season premiere at about 6 pm yesterday on AMC Channel. This time, the cast of Fear TWD had a convoy: two people on the huge cargo truck, Victor Strand and Charlie on the SWAT truck, and the rest of the cast inside the plane that crashed on the ground where zombies tried to attack them. Well thanks to "the original cast Alicia (Alycia Debnam Carrey) who single handled zombies vicious attack using the propeller of the downed airplane while Morgan tried to support and help her. Two kids were then saved while the rest of them were attending to the wounded female. Yeah, I should not name some of the new cast member because some of those questions being asked was "what is the significance of Alicia's presence in "Fear The Walking Dead." Crazy as it is... it was Alicia or Alycia is the ORIGINAL cast of this hit series on AMC.

Sarcastically, the host Chris Hardwick of Talking Dead Live gave the woman who is a fan of FTWD (who questioned Alicia's  significant role in FTWD) the "hazmat suit" and helmet and asked her if she can see through that helmet.

Some people are weirdos right? LOL. J/K. To think that the story revolves on survival in apocalyptic war then to be surprised by the  "radiation area" where their plane landed and crashed. Who the pilot? It turned out that who that girl is? The SWAT girl who else. I don't know who they are actually. All of a sudden they were cast as the people who are alcoholics. Then there was Charlie who killed Alicia's brother. Morgan (Lenie James) moved to Alicia's series because he doesn't like The Walking Dead because it's "overcrowded" there now. What is new in Fear TWD? According to the new executive producers, they will cast in Dwight to their show/series because as I observed, some of the new cast would rather have their own drama away from zombie attack because they are not made for action. So why the sexy and beautiful Alicia would be the zombie attacker instead of the other cast? OMG! You know most zombie movies esp. the many sequels of RESIDENT EVIL should have one gorgeous, sexy female fame fatale who's got the expertise in combat attack and without Alicia, it's no longer Walking Dead in that hot series. It will be called Alcoholics Anonymous. lol or Beerlander not Captain Morgan. They all need fresh water for bathing.

You know that there are too many gloves on the wall of that store, gas stop station, why they never wear them? Alicia should look after her wounded palm so that she wont get infected. They have medical kit there and they have a nurse. Would you like to see Madison's return to that series? Because it lacks certain emotion of what a devoted mother should be looking after her own kid.

Next: Apocalyptic war with zombies +  Nukes? Fear The Walking Dead are going nuclear! Wow! What kind of mutants will roam their planet? What parts or roles those new kids on the block in FTWD? At least somehow there are elementary kids in this new series for season 5.

Amazing Race 2019

You think that when these Amazing race contestants reached Switzerland they wont do any kind of task that will harm them or anything risky is out of the question. However long and behold that each one of them has to do the bungee jumping from up top of the cliff, 400 meters from top to bottom of the cliff where rushing water flows on rocky side. Then to walk on the hanging net where they have to reach for the clue (envelope) for the next task. A helicopter waits for them so that they can do the next task. The other contestants decided to try their luck on riding the tram going up the hill and have to memorize the name of those places that will be part of the test on top of the mountain overlooking the hydro dam. More mountain climbing and hiking and lastly they have to jump to reach the envelope for clues until they reach the last leg of that episode and have to meet Phil Keoughan at the Pit Stop, in a century old church. It's not that bad really, if you will just watch it but for those who will do the stunts, of course that's scary. Wanting to win the $ 1 Million dollars probably makes them do these incredible stunts no matter how hard and no matter how death defying. Maybe they all are fit, healthy mind and body that they can do the many rigorous stunts. Fortunately nobody was eliminated in this leg of the race. Tyler and Korey won in this leg of the race.
