#PaulWalker Dead at 40

What a sad day to end the month of November. It was in nydailynews.com that I read the news for the first time. I can't believe it. I checked my Twitter feeds and Paul Walker was already trending. Paul Walker dead at 40. This headline must be hard for all the fans. As I was reading the latest news, I can say that there was an uncertainty. Most of the fans insisted that it is a hoax. Until, the official twitter site of Paul Walker publish this:

"It's with a heavy heart that we must confirm Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident...MORE: http://on.fb.me/1bzn8gD - #TeamPW "

I tried checking online and saw that Wikipedia already added Nov. 30, 2013 in Paul Walker's profile. Even the local news channels confirmed that Paul Walker died in a tragic accident.

I searched for Paul Walker's Facebook and saw this post as well:

"It is with a truly heavy heart that we must confirm that Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident while attending a charity event for his organization Reach Out Worldwide. He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives. We appreciate your patience as we too are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news. Thank you for keeping his family and friends in your prayers during this very difficult time. We will do our best to keep you apprised on where to send condolences. - #TeamPW"

Rest in Peace Paul Walker. You are a great guy on cam and off cam. Your legacy of helping others is beyond amazing. Thank you for extending your time attending charities to raise funds for relief efforts. In behalf of the Filipinos, thank you for extending your  help to the Philippines. You are an angel and may you rest in peace.

Santa Claus and Christmas Ornaments

Is it too early to decorate for Christmas? I tell you what, it doesn't matter if you put up your Christmas tree before or after thanksgiving. It is up to you and your family tradition. In my neighborhood, Three of us already set up the outdoor Christmas lights. My Christmas tree is up since Sunday and all the Christmas ornaments are dangling loosely and happily by the tree, hehehe.

Each year, I always buy Santa Claus and one favorite ornament on which became our tradition for 5 years. This year, I plan to buy another Santa Claus but, it came with Mrs Claus.

This is Eskimo Santa, cool ensemble he got huh?

This is a mouse conductor named Mr. Christmas, an interactive and sound ornament. Mr Christmas is a voice recognition Christmas Tree ornament.

Here is another Santa but, on a stilts. He is funny because sometimes I let him have a split under the Christmas tree.

I love the color celadon green that is why; I am attracted to this Santa. I may not like his beard but, his whole outfit is very nice.

Okay, that's all for now. I need to take a power nap for tomorrow. Sister- in-law and family from Mississippi is here in Florida and will be coming over for an early Thanksgiving dinner. Hubby and I are excited! Thanks for stopping by and Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

The Epic Split of Jean-Claude Van Damme

I've had my ups and downs,

my fair share of bumpy roads and heavy winds,

that's what made me what I am today,

now I stand here before you,

what you see is a body crafted to perfection,

a pair of legs engineered to defy the laws of physics,

and the mindset to master the most epic of splits.

-Jean-Claude Van Damme

If you haven't viewed the famous "Epic Split" of Van Damme then, here's the clip. After watching it, tell me, what is your opinion about the stunt? Do you think he uses harness for protection? The video went viral on the Web. #Volvo Trucks has released the video on YouTube showing him doing the splits between two reversing trucks. As of today, it has 30 million viewers since the first released/published on November 13, 2013.

The engineer behind this amazing stunt is Jan-Enge Svensson. The music embedded in this video is "Only Time" from Enya. It is the same soundtrack used in my favorite movie "Sweet November" starring Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron.

Thank You for your Thoughts and Prayers for the Philippines

I am overwhelmed with so many phone calls from our American friends and family here in the US asking about the condition of my family in the #Philippines. Thank you so much for the thoughts and from the bottom of my heart, thank you ... means a lot to me. My family, relatives, and friends are all fine and safe. My family lives in Northern Mindanao as shown in the red arrow below. I appreciate your caring thoughts and earnest prayers. Please continue to pray for the victims in this tragic event. May God bless the survivors the strength, patience and understanding amidst this trials and tribulation. God bless everyone.

Halloween Masks

Okay, these are the masks that we used on Halloween. We did not use it the whole time while giving out candies. We do not want to scare the kids away LOL. This is Yoda and this mask is a bit expensive. This is more or less $35 but, I got this for free.

Believe it or not, this mask is only a $1. I bought this in a dollar store.

This is Jason and yes, this is also a $1 mask from a dollar store.

We only have about 45 trick-or-treaters this year, wondering where the kids go. Last year it was about 85. Hoping that next year, there will be more. How about in your place?
