Trending Tuesdays Television #12 #FixThePlus

                              Game Of Thrones 


If you haven't watched the series the Game Of Thrones you must come out of that rock you are living under and watch it!

Normally I wouldn't go for a show like this where every show is an old age chess game of political moves but this show manages to add entertainment, humor, the characters adding the human touch to soften the show's roughness.

The show is in it's 6th Season showing no sign of cancelling.

If you watch Game Of Thrones who is your favorite actor? I really like John Snow.

Thursdays Are For Trivia #FixThePlus

Welcome back to Thursdays Are For Trivia.

Thursday Trivia is starting to pick up stat wise so I will continue to post trivia questions and answers until I figure out whether to continue or do something else.

I'm rethinking Monday's Television theme and will decide before this coming Monday. Let me know what you think.





The new species, a large yellow spider in Malaysia, is called Heteropoda davidbowie. The species name honors David Bowie, with particular reference to songs such as "Glass Spider" and the resemblance of the frontal view of the spider to the singer's painted face in his early career. Bowie had a 1972 album entitled The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, and his 1987 tour was named the Glass Spider Tour.

How the fire exactly began is still unknown, but Mrs. O'Leary's cow often gets the credit. The most popular and enduring legend maintains that the fire began in the O'Leary barn, as Mrs. O’Leary was milking her cow. The cow kicked over a lantern, setting fire to the barn. This story was circulating in Chicago even before the flames had died out, and it was noted in the Chicago Tribune's first post-fire issue. In 1893 the reporter retracted the "cow-and-lantern" story, but even his confession was unable to put the legend to rest. At least 300 people were dead, and 100,000 people were homeless. The fire was one of the most spectacular events of the nineteenth century, and it is recognized as a major milestone in the city's history.

Did you know that?

Prince Died While I Was Making Pancakes

For breakfast/lunch, I decided to make some blueberry pancakes. I actually made it through standing until I was done with the last pancake. Needless to say, when I sat down to eat my pancakes it was kinda hot from the burner since we have a gas stove eating only a few bites.

My husband announces "Prince has died" they just said so. I asked if it was 'real' with all the hoaxes that come out you have to check and recheck. Evidently it's true.

I'm 57 and I'm here to tell you I told my husband that it doesn't matter how much money you have you can go anytime, "would you like more butter and syrup on your pancakes"?


He agreed so after a few minutes listening to the newscast about Prince dying which is all over the web as of now I say "Maybe when you do have a lot of money it makes things worse"?

I was never a huge Prince fan but my heart does go out to his passing, his friends, fans, and family. News like this makes you take a brief look at your own mortality then you move on.

Farewell Prince, may you rock in peace.

What were you doing when you heard the news of Prince passing?

A Christmas Horror Story


Cast: William Shatner (DJ Dan) Shannon Kook-Chun (Dylan) Rob Archer (Krampus) George Buza (Santa) Michelle Nolden (Diane Bauer)

I know, it's way after Christmas but I have been waiting to see this for a while now. I LOVED IT. It had a mixture of horror, the supernatural and comedy. That's if your not too busy covering your eyes. Remember folks, it's all make-believe.

I loved the idea of elf zombies which I personally have never seen before, the makeup was fantastic.

This movie brought a whole new level of the phase "naughty or nice" seemingly it doesn't really matter which one you are. William Shatner does a great job as a DJ making me chuckle all through the movie.

The ending of A Christmas Horror Story was a nice twist where the whole story was tied up neatly in a big red Christmas bow. I would watch it again.

Does A Christmas Horror Story sound good to you?
