Do you have a question about stage 4 brain cancer?  Ask if you do!

Music from this weekend!  “Muse”, “Dead Sara”, “Coheed and Cambria”, “I Mother Earth”, “The Struts”.

Friday ended with the 2 of us trying to clear off our DVR.  Nothing too spectacular.

Saturday was movies & more movies.

LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday was CFL playoffs.  Eastern final, Hamilton vs. Ottawa.  Western final, Winnipeg vs. Calgary.  The wrong teams won.  It’ll be the Calgary Stampeders vs. The Ottawa Redblacks in the Grey Cup game, the CFL championship.

I’m pretty sure most Calgary Stampeders fans are the ones born in Calgary.  I’ve been to one game in Calgary years ago.  It was the middle of summer but it looked like Christmas.  Half of was wearing the red Calgary jerseys & the other half were people from Saskatchewan who moved there for work wearing the Green Roughrider jerseys.  Very divided crowd in a good way!

On Sunday I went to my parents’ place for waffles followed by the 2 football games.  Kim was in Saskatoon with Jolene for a girl’s trip.  Brewster & I were fine.

 

Check this good deed out by Metallica!

For such a long time, I couldn’t stand Metallica.  Since the release of “Hardwired…..to Self-Destruct” in late 2016, I’d call myself a fan, of their studio albums & the album with a symphony orchestra.

 

Dave Grohl pitched in to help the fire fighters in California also.

 

So “Toy Story 4” is a real thing!

Why wasn’t Pantera part of the big 4 in metal, to make it the big 5 or replace Anthrax?

The song “Bohemian Rhapsody” in the style of “System of a Down” Hahahaha

 

KELLY CLARKSON/CARPOOL KARAOKE

Yes, the first American Idol winner & I didn’t see even 30 seconds of the first season.  She was a waitress in Texas before her audition for the show.  I could possibly name 4 or 5 American Idol winners.  This is the show I always say I’m not going to watch.  Kim watches it & I get sucked in.

I have most of her albums or at least a few songs from the odd album.  It’s the album “Piece by Piece” that I have nothing from, I do have her Christmas album though, which I won’t post anything from….

 

2003   THANKFUL (Only song I own from this album)

 

2004   BREAKAWAY

 

2007   MY DECEMBER (Only 2 songs from this album that I like)

 

2009   ALL I EVER WANTED

 

2011   STRONGER

 

2017   MEANING OF LIFE

Between the last 2 albums she released a “Greatest Hits”, Christmas album, & the album “Piece by Piece”

 

Well first move of the offseason for the Toronto Blue Jays.  Aledmys Diaz traded to Houston for a minor league/AAA pitcher.  Quite a log jam on the infield for the Blue Jays.  I’m afraid they’ll have a $20,000,000 Short Stop as a cheerleader.  He’s got $34,000,000 for the next 2 years.  He hasn’t played since July 7th, 2017.  That will be a tough contract to move, unless he shocks everyone & hits really well?  As of right now he’s 3rd or 4th on my depth chart for short stop.

Do you have a question about stage 4 brain cancer?  Ask if you do!

Music throughout the weekend. “Dave Grohl”, “The Struts”, “Lamb of God”, “Bruce Springsteen”.

 

Relatively quiet weekend.  Friday I watched the Toronto Blue Jays.  Did the same on Saturday.  Stopped the game on Saturday while visiting with Tim Wong & his kids.  I’ve been friends with Tim since grade 9 (1994-1995?).  Nice to see him.  I see him about once a year, since he lives in Edmonton.  Always a welcome visit when he’s in town.  Kim had a work BBQ on Saturday.  She left just before 3:00 pm & came home quite late (2:50 pm – 11:40 pm roughly), what was I doing?  I watched “Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi” after Tim & his kids left.

Today is our get ready for the week ahead, I’ve made my juice & Kim’s out grocery shopping.  I’ll bake some fish & Kim will put her lunches together once we hard boil some eggs.

Brewster is getting old.  Kim took him to the Vet this week.  He’s 12.5 years old, both ears are infected, & on a scale of 1 – 6 his heart murmur is at a 4.  Gets me more than a little worried.

 

I can’t wait to see “The Meg”.  That might rank up there for me with the movie “Jaws”?

 

JIMMY EAT WORLD

A pop/punk band made up of 7 people with 8 albums.  Again, more emphasis on the pop than the punk.  They made their debut in 1996 with the album “Static Prevails”.  I own 4 of their albums.  Not the first 2 releases or the last 2 releases.  They’ve hit the peak of their career for me.  I didn’t get into them until 2001 on their 3rd album “Bleed American” when I saw the video for the song “The Middle”.

 

2001    BLEED AMERICAN

 

2004    FUTURES

 

2007   CHASE THIS LIGHT

 

2010   INVENTED

I can see how people would get really bored with this band fast.  Very redundant with the majority of the songs in very simple 4/4 time.  If I’m listening to stuff like this or a very progressive type of music, I’m probably not thinking about the music & have just tuned out of everything.  If it’s very progressive I might be focusing or thinking too hard about what’s going on in the music.

WHO ARE THE REAL HEROES HERE?  ‘CAUSE IT’S NOT ME & U2

I fell asleep to “Foo Fighters” the album “Wasting Light”

I exercised to Kim watching TV.

This is late.  I just didn’t want to get out of bed.  I woke up shortly after 8:00 am & finally got my butt moving at 10:00 am had a quick bite to eat & then exercised.  I thought things would get easier as I did them more?  I sweated profusely today though, doing the same exercises as yesterday.

I’m pretty sure these will be posted later on in the morning since I’ve added more exercises.

I’m not the hero or victim in this cancer nonsense.  My family, Kim’s family, & our friends are the heroes.  I would never be able to get this far on my own.  If Kim wasn’t working, we’d really be hooped.  She works, I exercise.  There’s no income for exercising as much as possible.  Our immediate families are very important to both of us.  James, Sherry, Mitch, Rachel, & my parents are all in Regina.  If we need help of any kind that they can help with, none of them think twice about helping us out.  Our friends in Regina are the same.  If we need help, they’re ready & on call.  No offense to anyone, Mitch & Kim are my phone a friend peeps.

When I was acting like a complete idiot, Mitch put me in my place.  Kim wasn’t very happy at that time either.  I didn’t see it because I wasn’t thinking about anyone else or how my behavior was affecting others.

If things had turned out differently & I had died, many other people would have died on the inside.  I didn’t die though & thank goodness I didn’t!  Not everyone gets a second chance at life other than cats that get 9 lives.  No I’m trying to steer the boat, with many others, in the right direction.  I’m sure we’ll run into some nasty waves along the way but with help awaiting the call, we’ll be OK.

 

Kim has this entire week off.  We watched 2 more movies on Monday.  Spider – Man Homecoming & Thor: The Dark World.  I really didn’t like the first Thor movie but this second one was REALLY good.  I saw Spider – Man Homecoming in the theater & I knew it was a movie I’d watch again.  Right now I’m holding out to see Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi & we may go this weekend to Pitch Perfect 3?

 

I’m sure A Perfect Circle will be released this year.  It could be a long wait before we hear a new Tool album.  I’ll believe it when I have it.  Danny Carey said in 2016 that there would be a new Tool album in 2017.  Their last release was in 2006 titled “10,000 Days”.  If that’s when the release is we have roughly 16.397 years to wait, if I did the math properly?  A Perfect Circle has 2 singles out already, still no release date though.

 

Spotify is being sued for $1.6 Billion.

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/tom-petty-neil-young-publisher-sues-spotify-for-16-billion-w514859

 

U2 – Songs of Experience.

I was a HUGE U2 fan in High School.  I have 11 albums on CD right from the 1st album 1980’s “Boy” to 2005’s “How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb”.  After that album I just assumed they had retired, until “Songs of Innocence” appeared in my iTunes.  That album was light years away from what I would consider a U2 album.  I got into them on “The Joshua Tree” released in 1987.  I (my mom) didn’t purchase it for me until 1989 or 1990(?) when I was with her at Costco & saw it there.  My mother isn’t a U2 fan, but she bought that CD for me.  I played that CD over & over & over etc. in my bedroom on my boom box at a LOUD volume.  I think my mother deeply regretted that Costco purchase.

After that album I casually bought the previous albums & kept a steady pace with future U2 releases.

The new album “Songs of Experience” I seem to enjoy it more with each listen.  I find it to be a good mix of old & new U2.  Here’s someone else’ take on it. I would never suggest a U2 album to anyone that has never been a fan of them.  If you’ve enjoyed previous albums, DEFINITELY check this album out!  Thanks to Jonny Amore & Timothy Wong for drawing my attention to this album!

I fell asleep to “Stitched Up Heart” the album “Never Alone”

I exercised to “Candlebox” the album “Love Stories & Other Musings”

 

FRIDAY DECEMBER 22 WILL BE THE FINAL BLOG FOR THE YEAR!!!!!!!

 

OK, I get to sit here & fill you in on stuff I like, movies, TV shows, & music.  That’s great & all.  I do encourage you to check out stuff I recommend.  I also encourage you to find your own things & share it as a comment.  I’m aware that not everyone will like the same things, don’t be shy, “tell us about it”, and make us aware of something the rest of us are missing out on!  I would love for this to be much more interactive!  You don’t need to have survived brain cancer to have an opinion about something.

I hate exercising as much as the next person, until about 5 – 10 minutes after I’m done with it.  I figure “Ah, get it over with ASAP”.

I look up reviews on movies, music, & TV shows as much or more than the next person does or would like to.  “In the end” it’s quite subjective, check it out & see if it’s to your liking.

I always encourage you to make up YOUR OWN mind about everything!  Here’s an example, so many people love the Marvel Comic book movies.  Guess what?  I prefer the DC movies more than the Marvel movies.  Some people don’t like comic book movies.  It’s AOK with me.  Some people prefer to not watch movies or TV.  I’m OK with that too!  I don’t understand it, but I acknowledge that.

That’s the reason my music reviews are more like “Hey check this out.  See if you like it.”  Friday is my top 10 albums of the year & some stuff I haven’t gotten a chance to purchase yet.  That’s the only time I’ll rate an album.

 

 

We finished season/part 4 of “The Ranch” on Sunday.  Yes, we were binge watching it.  10 episodes each a ½ hour long.  Released on Friday.

LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Star Wars only got the 2nd highest opening weekend ever $220,000,000

I was going to purchase the “Depeche Mode” Greatest Hits album among other Greatest Hits albums.  I found out I’m not a big fan of the artist or groups, just a song here & there.  “In Flames” just released a 4 song EP of cover songs.  That’s what got me on this 1980, 1990, & early 2000s train.  Here are the 3 Depeche Mode songs I plan on purchasing 2 of the 3 songs have been covered.

 

Here are the 2 performances by Foo Fighters on SNL this past weekend.

I fell asleep to “Halestorm” the album “Into the Wild Life”

I exercised to “Earthside” the album “A Dream I Static”

 

600 pushups, 500 leg lifts, & 225 triceps pushups!  I’m not sure what I’ll do for exercise over the holidays?  I don’t want to lose any momentum but I also need a break.  January 2nd everything goes back to normal.  Both types of pushups 45 & 120, 100 crunches, 100 leg lifts, & 40 back flexes 5 days a week.  I need to do some cardio also, we’ll see how that works out.

Got up Wednesday, felt instantly sick to my stomach.  Did my exercises, checked my Facebook & email, had breakfast.  About ½ an hour later I threw up my breakfast.  Returned to the couch until I went to bed at 10:00 pm.  Thursday I slept in until 11:00 am & felt fine.  Did my exercises, had breakfast & got out of the shower a few minutes after 2:00 pm.

Playing baseball was my 2nd hobby but I won’t bore you with that stuff.  I played from the age of 4 until the end of the season when I was 17.  I guess I was playing baseball before I started doing anything else regularly.

When I was in grade 7 my baseball coach was thrown out of the game twice in Little League.  It was LITTLE LEAGUE!  So not worth it!  Our practices were at a high school, before & after each practice we’d all jog around the property twice.  I still had some baby fat on me until that baseball season.  When I say property, it doesn’t mean just the building, but the entire property.  Football field, baseball diamond, parking lot, EVERYTHING!

 

 

Star Wars: Episode VIII, The Last Jedi is now in theaters.  I’m going to the theater, but I’ll wait about a month.  It’s projected to make $425,000,000 this weekend.  I’m waiting until everyone has seen it 10 times, then I’ll go.

 

New “Walk off the Earth” video!

 

Wow, after all of that, I still don’t like Roy Moore!

http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/11/politics/kayla-moore-roy-rally-alabama-senate/index.html

 

When I hear a new Tool album I’ll believe it.  They do have many festivals coming up on their schedule though.

Drummer, Danny Carey, said the same thing at the end of 2016 about a new album in 2017.

Maynard James Keenan will be pulling double duty singing for A Perfect Circle & Tool at the same festival.

http://loudwire.com/tool-avenged-sevenfold-2018-northern-invasion-lineup/

 

Too far away for me with no passport.  I’m not that interested in seeing Jerry Cantrell & friends anyway.

http://loudwire.com/alice-in-chains-spring-2018-north-american-tour/

After the death of singer, Layne Staley, I sort of tuned out.

 

No Canadian dates for this tour

Deceased singer.

 

New singer.

 

What’s a millennial, sweeping stereotype for anyone born after 1984?  My brother is NOT a millennial.  My extended family are not millennials.  Everyone was raised by good parents, & we’re taught to work for their goals.

 

Don’t forget!!!!  Foo Fighters are the musical guests on Saturday Night Live!!  Set your DVR, PVR, VCR, Microwave, Oven, BETA MAX, alarm clock, cell phone, BBQ, etc.  Don’t miss it!!!!

 

We’ve been through this 4 times last year.  Give him 3 weeks to a month & he’ll have a blister again.

C.C. Sabathia as a Blue Jay?  No!  What happened to younger?  He’s left handed, but past his prime to be in the MLB.  I’d give him 2 years at $15M a year.

Friday ended with us watching our recorded shows on our DVR.  Saturday I slept in while Kim started cleaning since Brewster & I were still sleeping.  When Kim cleans, it’s always best to stay out of the way.  On top of that she went grocery shopping!  Then we cleared off the DVR & watched the Demi Lovato documentary on www.youtube.com REALLY good, I recommend it, it’s called “Simply Complicated” phenomenal voice too!

Full movie here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWTlL_w8cRA  or below.

 

Sunday I went to my parents’ place to watch the Saskatchewan Roughriders play the Ottawa Redblacks.  Roughriders crossed over to the eastern division & we won!!!!!!!!!!  Next week we play the Toronto Argonauts.  We also watched the Edmonton Eskimos beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the western division.  They play the Calgary Stampeders next week.  I cheer for 3 teams the Riders, anyone against Calgary, & anyone playing against B.C.  Yes, that’s how I’m gonna be.

Today is more getting ready for the week, & Kim will go to the gym.

 

 

 

 

MUSIC & POP CULTURE TALK

 

The woman that gave the finger to Trump’s motorcade received 465,000+ job offers after being fired for her actions.

6 HUGE science fiction movies in one year, & a “Despicable Me” movie!!!!!!!

Yes, at the moment I’m all for comic book movies, & I’ve always enjoyed cartoon movies & Star Wars.  These last two have been my favourite movies of all time along with “Deadpool”, which is difficult to find an appropriate trailer of.

The trailer is rated R

I fell asleep to “Our Lady Peace” the album “Happiness is not a Fish that you can Catch”, “The Tragically Hip” the album “Trouble at the Hen House”, “Led Zeppelin” the album “Physical Graffiti”, & finally “Dream Theater” the album “Black Clouds & Silver Linings”

I exercised in silence today.  I’ve been having issues with my iTunes library, but may have it fixed today, I hope.  The guy I’ve been dealing with in the Apple customer service is FANTASTIC!  I’ve never been this impressed by any customer service person!  I’ve been working with him & the engineers at Apple for about a month.  He’ll call me out of the blue just to let me know he’s still working on my case.

 

500 pushups, 500 crunches, 500 leg lifts, 200 back flexes, 100 triceps pushups.  I achieved all of my exercise goals this week.  That always puts a smile on my face!

I could use a smile this week.  I’m getting stronger physically, which means I’m able to help out around the house more.  Kim is working herself way too hard, work & exercise for her boxing charity.  I try to get as much as possible done before she gets home, dishes, dishwasher, cooking, cleaning, etc.  Trying to do regular stuff at top speed gets me extremely stressed out!  By 3:00 pm I’m very hot/sweaty & tired.  I can’t tell you why or what I’m stressing out about, but I am.  Mostly it feels like there isn’t enough time in the day.

The reason I’m in a wheelchair is because I cannot walk without something to hold on to.  My legs work, I can get into our walk in shower after I carry my shower seat in there, I can walk with a chest high walker, I can reach the top shelf of our pantry by using the door frame to stand up, etc.  Our place has grab bars in each bathroom, & I have transfer polls I use to sit on the couch & to get into bed.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting older or just because I’m doing more stuff now that I’m able to?

November 11th is Remembrance Day in Canada.  A day when we take a moment to honour, thank, & remember previous veterans & current soldiers keeping us safe.  I think this year is what us forgotten Canadians really need!

THANK YOU TO ALL WHO CONTINUE TO KEEP US SAFE & THANK YOU TO THE VETERANS & THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES KEEPING US SAFE!

 

THAT’S ALL FOR THE CANCER TALK FOR NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

This type of thing should happen at every public event!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I can’t tell you how onboard I am with this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right at the door someone should send anyone with a cell phone back to their vehicle.  It happened to me years ago, & made total sense!  I had it turned off anyways.  You have to turn it off in a movie theater, why not a concert.  Have some self-control.  Take a picture & a video of your favourite song, then put your phone away.  If you can’t do that, leave it in your vehicle or at home.

 

No, I don’t listen to Marilyn Manson, but he makes a valid point here.

 

Paramore is actually selling cassettes online, odd.

https://store.warnermusic.ca/collections/paramore/products/after-laughter-cassette?variant=43380864844

 

When the Toronto Blue Jays start spring training I have a wish list for the team.  3 new everyday outfielders, new everyday short stop, and possible new 2nd baseman.  1st base, 3rd base, & DH can & should remain the same.  Biagini, Osuna, Tepera, & Ramirez all in the bullpen with others.  Estrada, Stroman, Sanchez, & Happ as starting pitchers.  If all of this is possible that would be great!  Any of the new players should have speed, bat left handed, & have a good batting average & on base percentage.  Mr. Atkins & Mr. Shapiro, please don’t put the fans through another 2017?

When Corey McDonald started SIAST shortly after me.  He showed me the path to what is now my favourite “Soundgarden” album “Badmotorfinger”.  I pulled out the “Superunknown” album, & Corey asked if I had heard “Badmotorfinger”, I hadn’t, so he lent it to me the next day.  Since then that album it’s my go to “Soundgarden” album.

 

After hearing that album once, I was hooked & bought it ASAP.  Corey then opened my eyes to “Pantera” & I got hooked on “Into Eternity” the album “Buried in Oblivion”

This was in the early 2000s.  I started SIAST in September of 2001, my 2nd week was when 9/11 happened.

 

I’m not crazy, someone else just praised “Batman vs. Superman”!  Others have seen “Justice League” & found it to be the best movie in the DC universe!

I have “Thor Ragnarok”, “Justice League”, & “Star Wars VIII” to see.  I see good times ahead!

 

Nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!  This is MY dark side of Rush.  Foo Fighters & audience fan.  LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
