Black Friday Soon

 Looks like some of those people with money to splurge already went shopping as early as possible or run out of money and now they want the GST HOLIDAY as early as possible!

Two politicians: Bloc Qubecois Leader Yves Francois Blanchett and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh asking for PM Trudeau, for the Government to send the benefits for families earlier, sooner than later.

It must be that the BLACK FRIDAY SALE IS TOO TEMPTING.

The flyers for advertisements, for Black Friday is such a madness for early shopping spree.

Where in the world you can buy 70' TV for just as low as $699? OMG!!!! 

70 " TV (inches) WOW!! 

I would like such a huge wide screen TV.

In a small living room, that's almost like a cinema effect.

It's 2014 Have New Episodes!

I think those  *STARS* are reading what I'm posting here on my blogs. Today, the whole day is the marathon for the teens' most popular television show VICTORIOUS. The show had a marathon started this very early morning and still goin' on up to now at 12:40nn. As I said, they are all replays. I watched them all already in 2013. I wish they have new episodes for 2014. My goodness have NEW EPISODE that we can enjoy to see for god sake it's already 2014!!!!!!!!!!

Right at this very moment the show features THE BIRD SCENE.

For would be movie stars or any celebrity, drama subject should be mastered by students to better train them to actual scenes in the movie making industry.

For the would be STUNT men and women, they all should apply at Amazing Race, Fear Factor and other horrible shows that deal with actions. It's only the action movies and horror movies that need action stars or doubles (stunt men and women) because you don't want to lose the main actors and that will lead to postpone the making of movies. Shocking!

It is for the many accidents in the making of movies that producers would rather use Avatars or computer animated objects and subjects to minimize hazards and dangerous stunts. It's great for those 3D animators and talented, skilled artists.

I have to lessen calling for any kind of attention in my blogs simply I have stalkers now too. You know. I'm not even popular and I have stalkers. Right there on Target store where there are group of groupies wearing thick glasses conversing in monotones loudly and aiming their cellphones on me. Darn! Guess who they were? Those girls from the iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiC show. I couldn't believe that they can speak Cantonese. No, maybe they are aiming at those discounted Xhilaration clothing. Whatever!

Then the news on other channels? It's all about SNOW and 2014 SOCHI Winter Olympic Games which the Olympic Committee have to open in February in Russia.

How bizarre are the latest of news today? Really makes you scream. One of those creepy stories in the news today is that of Elisa Lam who was found inside the water tank on top of the residential hotel. Is that news real? It looks like a movie THE CELL. Then that of Olympic athlete who shot his gf dead because he thought the one who opens the door of his house is a burglar. Stories that can make you spin. Fact or fiction? Stories that can make you feel and think nothing is safe anymore. How safe are you? Who are winning in today's world? The evil, the devils or angels? Blah, they are all humans. Humans are the ones who killed. Are they animals?

The movie THE CELL was on TV Channel last night. It is fighting reviews with hockey games: V Canucks Vs Chicago Hawks. Plus the fact that Tuesday is also NCIS nite. New episode at NCIS so I figured better watch it instead.

Amazing Race: Canadian edition in Bora-Bora. Then Survivor is back to bore us again or maybe to keep us seated while we watch them backfight each other. That's normal. Even in any place around the world, backfighters are everywhere simply each one of them want the work to themselves. There's not enough work out there.

Then what's the latest in book plug-ins? Dan Brown has a new released book authored by Dan Brown himself entitled INFERNO. For those who love crypt and symbolism they will enjoy putting puzzle's pieces all together once again. Autistic children and adults love puzzles so...let them enjoy the cryptology. Keep them busy once and for all. Keeping them busy can make them happy.

They see them before? Oh darn! I have seen your game before but you keep playing those stupid games. What else is new?

If You're Hit With A Rock Hit Them With Tina Fey

The highlights of Golden Globe Awards Night is not concentrated on Tina Fey and Amy Poehler although they did a good job making me laugh about their funny jokes about some celebrities. Its the celebrities they are using to make us enjoy laughter unlike so many comedians who are truly natural in providing act of comedy in the truest sense of it or is it because they are a lil'nervous or something? Or their entrance to the Golden Globe's gate hexed their mood when two TV hosts asked what's inside their clutch bags or purses? They both opened > showed their empty purses. So that's it. To provide laughter nowadays is just a matter of timing. One of the hardest job is to make people laugh. There's no guarantee that some of us will laugh at any jokes because some of the jokes are sometimes sarcastic or below the belt. I know. But if you are an avid fan of so many animated cartoon shows intended for children you know which ones are the best. How Seth McFarlane will host the Oscar's on February 24 is well think of it as a spoof of Family Guy and American Dad. I enjoyed watching those animated cartoon two popular shows on planet earth. They are on our television set for more than 15 years so it must be good if not it is really great. Hilarious and ridiculous? You bet it is. Kakabagan ka kakatawa. That's what you get from laughing out loud. Gas pain.

"Thank you Foreign Press" on and on...that's what you can hear again and again from those who received the Golden globes.

Golden Globe's the night for actors and actresses who have their golden moments shine so bright and their dreams came true to life not only in the silver screen. Stars such as Ben Affleck (Argo), Anne Hathaway for Best Musicals (Les Miserables), cast of Girls, even Game Changers Julianne Moore was again awarded for Best actress. I first thought it was a replay or something. Then the Cecil B. DeMille award for Jodie Foster who is now age 50 and she said she started at a very young age of 3 acting as a profession and from then Hollywood never stop from casting her from one movies to another. Her long speech was not cut off unlike other stars who were only given few seconds to deliver, but its Jodie Foster and her award meant something great. Cecil De Mille's 10 Commandments! Right it's 10 for Jodie. The best actress since Contact the movie and Silence of the Lambs inlcude Panic Room what can you get? She said something hilarious or offensive we may never know there are phrases and statements that were censored by our TV parental guidance mode. Uhmmm...anyway she blurted she is single and then she continued her style of providing more info while the many celebrities listened in awe. She thanked so many celebrities and crews etc, etc including Mel Gibson of course.

The first hour of the Golden Globe seemed so boring then later when some stars started drinking they become tipsy and the mood and mode of the night becomes bubbly and happiness abound. What a good sparkling wine can do eh? Champagne! Champagne!!!!

Next time have Robert Downey Jr. host the event. I think he is a great actor (we all knew that) and a stage host? Probably a riot! He is truly a versatile actor, Sherlock Holmes you should host the Golden Globe awards night next year.

AT THE OSCAR's? Hopefully lots of surprises. Those whom you think deserve the awards should get them right athe Oscars and should not be the same stage hopefully unpredictable surprises.

While I'm typing this blog entry the sports channel ghost host is mocking or having a mockery of something as if their channel is the best for having that huge purse. Really? They have to prove it.

ShowBiz

Sunod-sunod ang mga popular television shows, nag umpisa na ang masigabong competition habang patapos na ang pinaka-finale ng MASTERCHEF series. So it was Kristine Ha who won the title Masterchef. When it comes to presentation and attractiveness of how gourmet food looks like, ala French style cuisine magaling si Josh Marks. The three judges were impressed on his stylish presentation as classic chef in a five star hotel restaurant. They love his ice cream. But the rest of the food they seemed to argue and looked at each other. Then when it comes to Kristine Ha's typical oriental cuisine, the presentation is somewhat un-attractive. It's not impressive. Truth is just ordinary so-so blah style however it's the "flavor" of the food that she cooked that made the three judges that put her over the edge against Josh. FLAVOR > the taste of the food!!!!!!!!!

You as a customer what really is your opinion when you go to the restaurant? What are your choices?

First, you want to go to the restaurant because you are tired of cooking and bored about eating the same kind of food. Choosing a restaurant to go to and spend an hour sitting or less than that and be served with delicious meal is great. Then you want to go back there because you love their food. DELICIOUS FOOD cooked by their chef or line cook. Others preferred to be in their favorite restaurant because of its great service. All the waitress and waiters are polite, courteous and knew how to entertain their customers really well as if they had their SERVE IT RIGHT certificate.

For the most part customers would like to enjoy delicious affordable kind of food that will fill their stomach without breaking their wallet. That even if you go home the food stays there in your tummy as a sign that you are satisfied from you have eaten.

Anyway, congratulations to Kristine.

Next TV Shows that are in competition with the same time broadcast last nite: Hell's Kitchen, THE VOICE, next is the SURVIVOR Philippines edition and sooner than later the X FACTOR of Simon Cowell.

THE VOICE show is somewhat weird. The 4 judges: Christina Aguilera, Blake, Adam Levine, Ceelo have to listen to the contestants voice first without seeing the singer then they have to choose that person on stage depends on how much they like the voice of the contestant. Really?! One contestant didn't have that recorded song or I mean  singing live I think and he was not chosen. That's the awful thing about such show. Anybody can fool them by using pre recorded song and somebody can lip-synched it on stage and they can vote on that person without seeing and what happened after that? Sort of a pre-halloween trick or treat eh? Or maybe, maybe they were already auditioned before. They were really singer and they have to revive their career. What could be? Anyway, television viewers are not stupid you know. Before computers were invented TELEVISIONS there already to act as your guide to information technology. So don't blame me and millions of TV viewers.

In American idol and Canadian idol show > all contestants have to sing live using their own voice or singing with their own musical instrument of choice which is a good thing otherwise why get somebody who lip-synched? Maybe you can do that when you are very popular like Britney Spears. However her talent for dancing and sexyness is what her fans really like   including her pretty face.

Magshopping Ka Naman

Nagshopping ka na ba sa Staples? Sa Canada lang ata may store na Staples. Meron na rin ba sa Amerika?

Kakaiba ang feeling pag nagshopping ka sa store nila lalo na sa bandang electronics. Masyadong maingay ang machines nila. Laging may nagkiclick at nagbebeep. Maximum overdrive na ata sila doon.

Then magshop ka naman sa Radioshack grabe na rin. Hindi ako makahinga doon. Amoy electronics. Muntik na akong masuka!!!! Siguro dahil maliit lang ang space sa store nila kaya yung amoy ng mga computer, radio, telephone, cellphones, laptop, notebook talaga namang amoy na amoy electronics.

Siyanga pala pag may computer ka sa loob ng bahay or sa loob ng cuarto mo kailangan meron kang fan or the room is aircon para hindi mag overheat ang computer. Paalala lang dahil para kasing oven yang computer. So konting ingat.

Then bigla mong buksan ang door ng Winners. Shock!!!! Grabe! Ang bantot! Ah siyanga pala pulos leather ang tinda nila. Mga original leather bags, shoes and mga clothes nila ay orig din. Kaya ganun. Mabantot!

Maselan masyado ang pang-amoy ko. Malayo ka palang amoy na kita. Ha ha ha! Ewan ko ba. Sensitive ang sense of smell ko siguro dahil medyo malabo na ang mata ko. Pero minsan perfect eyesight and vision ako. Ah kasi kailangan ko ng eye-mo once in a while.

Sabi nga nila pag malabo daw ang mata mo perfect ang pang-amoy mo. Tutuo nga! Salamat naman. Perfect din ang pang amoy ko pag something fishy na ang labanan sa internet, sa facebook at sa blogging community. Bakit kasi highly competitive kasi ang labanan dito maski sa mga television networks sa dami ng channels ngayon na umaabot sa 4,000 channels lalo na yung may satellite dish pa sa wall ng mga kapit-bahay tyak yun ang TV channels nila abot hanggang Nevada and Arizona. Siguro wala pa silang "no signal" or there's no ghost on tv screen. Maraming ghost kasi pag malalaki at matataas ang gusali. Hmm, bakit ba napunta sa ghost?

Malapit na ulit ang Halloween siempre pang batang celebration yan. Ewan ko kung type kong magjoin pero...puede na rin.

Almost whole day yesterday was news about the court trial for Michael Jackson's family doctor. I tried to listen for a while until I fell asleep. This trial was going on for so many months before after MJ's death. It never stop. It's like the OJ Simpson's trial that keeps on-going in the television network as if there is no more news available until the famous actress Wynona Ryder appeared on TV caught shoplifting.Those were the unforgiving years of controversial issue Hollywood style. I think it's a change of aura against redundancy in what we can view on our television especially if we are burdened with paying over $100/month just to have  TV connection. What a life eh? We cannot live without TV! While the new young generation of today wont be able to live without computer, without internet. That their life's blood is connected to the wires. Yikkess!

While others are just contented that they are seeing green pizza on their stock market. While the rest are frowning due to the many red briefs parade on their screen. Not here! It's getting chilly by the hour. Ah, the weather what it can bring you day to day is simply irresistible.

Pepperoni Pizza for lunch! Rice, salmon with taosi and carrots for lunch for the fuzzy eaters.

The Royal Wedding: Prince William and Catherine


With too much excitement around the world on the wedding of the century: Prince William and Kate Middleton I couldn't help but be excited too even if I am here at the convenience of my own home. In front of my TV and my computer.

The TV networks non-stop broadcasting the event for over a week now. It's a HISTORY in the making of course! If only Princess Diana is alive...to see her son on his marriage with Catherine.

It was a beautiful stunning yet very elegant ceremony of two famous man and woman joined in Holy matrimony to love and cherish and what's life ahead it's for the two of them to take. Billions of people around the world watched and viewed them live on TV, others were lucky enough to be invited at the Westminster Abbey and at the Buckingham Palace, while the rest of the well wishers Britons and the like, tourists and participants have viewed them from the famous fabulous balcony as they held hands and kissed. The Royal Veranda Kiss! Yeah that's right "sealed with a kiss." They were joined by the Royal families: Prince Phillip, Queen Elizabeth II in bright yellow gown and yellow fabulous lovely hat. Yes, the Queen is still radiant and smart for wearing such a sharp, BRIGHT COLOR!

Do you think it's a meaningful message> Beam me up Scotty! He he he he!

Truth is NASA and the ISS beamed up a message. Already!

Then the sky? Look up in the blue sky where the Royal air force planes had that elaborate stunt and flashed a smoke in red, white and blue. Stars over you and what else? have you seen the helicopter? The yellow helicopter of Prince William?

Exciting to watch a Royal Wedding and I know newspapers and magazines will have lots of non-stop news and headlines and COVER of the famous bride and groom. It's gonna be millions of photographs, stories, videos, text and texting about this one of a kind ceremony that happens once in a blue moon.

Kate's Princess Grace of Monaco inspired wedding gown is beautiful. Simple yet very elegant. It shows her curves, slim and tall ready to be a Princess in her own right. Chantilly lace, V neck with detailed < > lace symbol. Oh nice! Great! I wonder what it means? Hmm..let me think.

Robert Langdon where are you? A ha ha ha ha!

I know there will be a BOOK dedicated to the wedding. It's gonna be another everyday life story of the Royal family all over again.

Know why?

People want a happy ending.

Too Many Movies For A Day

It was saturday afternoon and had finished preparing chili beans for supper then I decided to call my sister if she wants to watch a movie at the cinema. I want to view the film "The Social Network" to find out what is all about. What makes it so controversial not because it was a story of Facebook and the founder of FB - Mark Zuckerberg. But then my sister is kind of busy I think and she wants to watch something else. I just let her go besides it's already time for them to attend mass. Although I had a chance to tell her that I will watch the movie "Awake" with Chris Hayden and Jessica Alba. She said she already watched that movie thr. DVD. She was quick to tell me the story and the ending. Yes the ending---- now do I have to watch it ? Maybe not! Besides you know what it was supposedly slated for 9:00 pm last nite and instead they featured another movie "The Return."

Anyway, I changed channels my remote control is such a pest for I need to have the other control device for its volume. The other main control is only for channels and other buttons for the rest of the main functions for TV, DVD and other related important features for the television set except for the volume or sound. Peste di ba? They should invent something that all the components should be in just ONE DEVICE. I get pissed when the other remote control is out of sight. Why I have to keep hold of the sound or volume control is because every channels has different sound limit. Then two or four of the channels have no sound at all. I just couldn't believe it. Unlike when we have the old televisions we had  before wherein one remote control and all the functions are controlled by just ONE gadget. Ah totally weird.

Since I was finished with my household chores for the nite and I was starting on my next "story or novel" confined myself in my room and start writing. There are some buggers who keep phoning, I mean calling looking for L.  Changed channels once again. There are too many movies to choose from: The 40 Year Old Virgin was on starring Steve Carell (of the TV show "The Office) then the movie about bomb disposal experts in the film "The Hurt Locker." I was just playing with the back and forth changing channels when its time for commercials. Actually I didn't finish watching those movies. THe 40 Year Old Virgin is funny but there are characters there who are not pleasing to look at. I mean TH eh. Few of them are not really comedian. Then the Hurt Locker, the film that made it to the Oscar and the director had received an award, remember that? It was a movie in a war torn country where there are so many disagreements and miscommunications and I just decline to watch it. I hate the explosion. It's like a movie of testing the military how courageous they are leaving them like a toysoldier at the whim of those who ordered them. Very inhuman. Not good. You don't wanna see that movie. Very disturbing. No one can argue how devastating war is and how the soldiers can keep up with their sanity? Just the explosions can shake your whole psyche. No one can sleep with those kind of trauma. Maawa ka lang. Makokonsensya ka bakit ba may giyera at puede mo ring itanong kung bakit yung nag order ng giyera ay dapat sya ang nandoon to fight. Oh hindeee! Naku parang Ben David ah.

Late at nite, when we had this old movie, actually made in 1991 "At Play In The Fields of the Lord." The movie is based on the life of missionaries as they struggle to devote their teachings to the native Indians in the Amazon jungle. One of the many movies of John Lithgow, famous for his portrayal as the cruel villain in the movie " Cliffhanger" with Sylvester Stallone. Also famous for being Dick Solomon in the hit TV series "Third Rock From The Sun." I like that comedy TV series dunno why they canned that hilarious show. Better than Seinfeld I might tell you...for sure. Hehehe.

While my daughter watched not the entire movie because she found those bold and naked people ---"CREEPY." Ahahahahh.

Then when I said that John L. is a look-alike of her Dad she was laughing so hard. Eh, kamukha nga ni L. What can you do? twin siguro nya. He was seen taking the statue of the Virgin Mary away from the native and instead giving her the bolo (big knife). Also one of the missionaries gave the indian a bolo as a gift. You may ask why for heaven sake you have to give a stranger a knife--- for what? Gift? Really is questionable. Don't you have other gifts to give? Strange as it may sound it's like you want them to kill you. Now let's have more rational idea, the actors gave the bolo for them to use instead of arrow. Yeah that way it symbolized something more relevant for their cause.

The movie is something I cannot consider bad, they are all good actors and actresses. The story is great! The ending is deserving. The story depicted true encounter I think with the Indians for it is more like "documentary." Probably is a true story. This is what happened when the problem is LANGUAGE, CULTURE, and RELIGION obviously there is always a clash.
