Z Nation

Has anyone else been watching Z Nation?

Z Nation is an American horror-comedy-drama/post-apocalyptic television series that airs on Syfy.

I started watching a marathon earlier this year and I got hooked. It a pretty good show. I like how there is a storyline that arcs ever episode. But then each show has it’s own story, start to finish, each week.

Here is the premise of Z Nation

Z Nation begins three years into a virus-caused zombie apocalypse, which has already killed most humans. A group must transport Murphy, the only known survivor of a zombie bite who did not himself turn into a zombie, from New York to the world’s last known functioning research lab in California. Murphy had been the unwilling subject of a government test vaccine in the days just before society fell apart, and his blood contains antibodies that are mankind’s last and best hope for a vaccine. However, Murphy harbors a dark secret that threatens them all. (From Wikipedia.com)

The characters are fun and interesting. There are some scene where its a little bit scary and they there are others where you laugh out loud.

If you are expecting it to be like that other zombie show, you might be a little disappointed. It’s about zombies, but in a different view.

I like it and hope it stays on for a couple of more years. If you haven’t seen it yet, give it a try. Even if you don’t like it, you can get more hints for what to do when there is a Zombie Aocalypse.

Black Friday

Well, I guess when Sylvia has a little money on hand and time, what does she do? Yup… shopping online during Black Friday.

I needed everything that I brought today, I really did. Plus, I’m getting some cash back on my purchases. So, isn’t that a good thing? (I keep telling myself that.)

I did all my shopping online, there is no way that I would have gone out in San Antonio traffic and the crowds at the stores. I would have hurt someone for sure.

So now, I have to wait patiently for the things that I ordered to be delivered. I’m looking forward to putting aside the gifts that I purchased. And looking forward to the ones I brought for myself.

Sometimes, you just have to treat yourself.

 

“My Humps”

Oh dear Lord, this has to be on the top of the list of songs that gets on my nerves!

“My Humps” is the third single by The Black Eyed Peas.

 

 

In an April 2011 interview with MTV News, will.i.am stated that the group has retired the song.

“For a while, [we did] ‘My Humps’ and then it got to the point where we didn’t want to play ‘My Humps’ no more. You know, ’cause, ‘I met a girl down at the disco,’ I just didn’t want to say that no more, lyrically…”

He concluded that “My Humps” will not be performed on future tours, admitting the track isn’t his best writing work.

I couldn’t even watch 30 seconds of the video, that is how much I don’t like this song. I guess other people felt the same way too.

Happy Thanksgiving

  

Chopped Apple Cake

Years ago, my sister gave me a cookbook, The Navy Wives Cookbook.

R.I.P. David Canary

Was checking my newsfeed and I saw that David Canary died a week ago.

David Canary, a five-time Daytime Emmy winner for the dual ALL MY CHILDREN roles of Adam and Stuart and an alum of ANOTHER WORLD as Steve, passed away on November 16 at the age of 77 from natural causes.

He also played ranch foreman Candy Canaday in Bonanza. I usually saw him on reruns.

I was more a fan of his from his years on All My Children. I lived his character, Stuart.

It’s sad to think the stars of my youth are getting older and passing away.

The cast that is up in heaven, must be making one heck of a soap opera.

DWTS (Season 21) — The Finals

I’ve been a little lacks on my posts about Danving with the Stars.

Now it’s the Finals and its down to the last four Stars.

1. Bindi Irwin & Derek Hough
2. Carlos PenaVega & Witney Carson
3. Nick Carter & Sharna Burgess
4. Alek Skarlatos & Lindsay Arnold

The start of the season, I reluctantly picked Bindi & Derek to win it all.

They have done a great job with all of their dances. She looks like she is having a fun out there dancing.

One pair that I’m surprised is in the finals is  Alek & Lindsay.

Yes, he’s a hero and all, but I think he’s good enough to for 4th place.

So, while watching the finals, I’m going to stick with my first pick… Bindi and Derek. Pick order is listed above.

Side Notes:

HOLY SMOKES! Nick & Sharna! First of all, I love that song, “Runaway Baby”—Bruno Mars.

I have to watch that routine again.

Seriously! They need to “retire” Erin Andrews. She is terrible. What is so special about her? Her making a fuzz about not getting the e-mail to have former stars dance with Carlos and Whitney… Pathetic!

Come on ABC, it’s time for someone new to take her spot.

OMG! Alek & Lindsay made the finals over Carlos & Whitney! In the words of Jeff Bridges as Roy Pulsipher in R.I.P.D. (2013)… “This is honky-tonk bulls#it!”

Kyle Busch… Sprint Cup Champ

What a race!

Yes,  I’m a NASCAR fan and a fan of Kyke Busch.  

Kyle Busch completed his comeback and captured his first career NASCAR Sprint Cup title.

  
Kyle Busch has been my driver for the past couple of years. 

I’m so glad he won the championship this season. 

I’m also glad that I got to see him race at the Texas Motor Soeedway a couple of weeks ago. 

Here are some pictures I took from NASCAR and Kyle Busch’s Facebook pages. 

  
  
  
  
Looking forward to next season and a repeat win!

This Song

I like all types of music, Pop to Country, Classical to Classic Rock, Latin to Reggae. But there are songs that get on my nerves and once I hear it, it gets stuck in my head.

Here in one of those songs… “Sunglasses at Night” (1983) by Canadian singer Corey Hart.

Every time I hear this song, I’m usually in a position where I can’t change it. And I’m stuck listening to the whole song. It’s like finger nails on a chalkboard.

Of course I have the song in my iTunes library. The playlist is called “That Song” for all those songs that get on my nerves.

Here are the lyrics in case you want to sing along to this song.

“Sunglasses at Night” written by Corey Hart.

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
Watch you weave then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes

While she’s deceiving me
It cuts my security (has)
She got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don’t switch the blade on the guy in shades, oh no
Don’t masquerade with the guy in shades, oh no
I can’t believe it
‘Cause you got it made with the guy in shades, oh no

And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
Forget my name while you collect your claim
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
See the light that’s right before my eyes

While she’s deceiving me
She cuts my security
She got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don’t switch the blade on the guy in shades, oh no
Don’t masquerade with the guy in shades, oh no
I can’t believe it
‘Cause you got it made with the guy in shades, oh no

She’s deceiving me
It cuts my security (has)
She got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don’t switch the blade on the guy in shades oh no
Don’t masquerade with the guy in shades, oh no
I can’t believe it
Don’t be afraid of the guy in shades, oh no
It can’t escape you
‘Cause you got it made with the guy in shades, oh no

I say
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I say it to you now
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I cry to you
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night

Great. now I have the song stuck in my head!! Damn you Corey Hart!
