Max: The Cutest Puppy Come´s Home for the first time

So, last week my husband and I adopted the sweetest smartest little puppy and we named him Max. He was a street dog until our neighbor rescued him. So, far he seem´s to like it here with us, and yes despite his size he´s still considered a puppy because the vet put him at about 1 to 3 years old. We´re not sure however what breed he is. And if anyone has any ideas please let us know.
So far he´s learned how to sit and play fetch which is quickly becoming one of his favorite pastimes, next to hogging the bed and begging for table scraps. 

I also made him a tug toy out of some old scrap fabric which he loves. Would you like to see how I made it? Leave a comment and let me know.

 
And as you can see in the picture to the left he loves to sleep and rest on the sofa, over top of his blanket. I´m sure I´ve said this before but I´ll say it again if you are thinking about getting a pet, I highly recommend that you adopt a shelter animal because then your not only getting a new friend your saving a life. 




And here are some more pictures. What do you guys think he´s super cute and super intelligent, he can open the doors when they are unlocked and he can even open the slidding glass door. I love him and I hope you love him too and if you want to see more from Mad Max please go on over to his blog and please be sure to like his facebook page and follow him on Twitter at @Mad_Maxthedog. 






Review: Doctor Who Christmas Special Last Christmas


So, I just saw the Doctor Who Christmas Special and to be honest I was very supprised not only that it wasn´t just pure ridiculousness but that it actually had some pretty dark undertones. I was exspeally supprised that Clara as a charater finally, for lack of better words manned up and faced the facts of what she really wanted. Which I belive is a key turning point for her character. If you have read any of my other articles on Doctor Who, you know I´m not a big Clara fan but this episode has me changing my mind about her. Instead of showing Clara as a brat, you see her being a brave, strong woman ready to make decisions even if they are not the easiest to make. Which let´s be honest was a nice change. And I honestly hope they keep that through the remainder of her time on Doctor Who. Now this is the bit where if you haven´t seen the episode you should either stop reading or get ready for spoilers.

Alright now, that thats out of the way I loved how if first started with Clara in her room with Santa and the elf´s having crashed on her roof and all of a sudden the Doctor pop´s up. The dream crabs are kinda cool looking. But even better was when the 12th doctor say´s mindpalacy, gawd I think BBC just likes toying with the fans truly. And jeeze just saying Clara is good at math, too good. And here comes that Doctor to say the exact wrong thing but it´s good that Clara was finally honest with him. And it´s Santa on Rodolf wohoo, my favorite raindeer. 

No one likes the tangerines.
 I love the dream within a dream throughout the whole episode, the Doctor and Clara are never quite sure if they woke up or not. It´s brilliant really what did you think? And I love that they referanced My Little Pony and Alien. And any one get the feels when they both admited to each other that they lied. The Doctor never found Gallifrey and Danny is still dead.

And this brings up something bad for the both of them trust nothing because it might be a lie and that speaks volumes for the reality of the two´s relationship. But I love the playful Doctor and Clara where the Doctor ask Clara to go get something and she comesback with a cever retort. This is exactly what was needed of Clara, yay she became sassy. And then the dream with Clara and Danny that broke my heart. And the chalkboards from the Doctor to Clara. I guess chalkboards are now going to be a thing. And the Doctor goes into desperate mode rather quickly and rushes he idea of killing the dream crab. Rather undoctor like but oh well, I can understand him, its scary his friend is trapped and he´s scared poor thing. And I did love that moment toward the end where 12 was driving the sleigh and all I could think is wow, 12 your 11 is showing. 
hey 12 your 11 is showing.
moment between the

Microsoft Built a Posh Dalek and then there´s Echo

Alright, I think us whovians need to band together and warn Microsoft our our impending doom because recently they rolled out what looks like a sleek Dalek called the K5. Anyone else a bit worried? The K5 robot was built to function as a type of security droid complete with camera´s and artificial intelegence. They don´t however have any weapons and with luck they will never be fitted for them. However you can see these k5 robots around and working if you live in California.


 


So what do you think? Kinda scary right? Well, if that´s not scary enough for you Amazon recently launched Echo, a small cylinder robot which reminds me a bit of a pringles can that is if a pringles can was always llistening and montoring your every move. I know it sounds a bit paranoid but come on the thing is waiting for you listening to conversations and is directly connected to the cloud. For me this just seems like a very bad idea.



I partly want it but it freaks me out that it´s always on. 

What do you think of these robots?
Do you think they will make life better?
Or will they become our new robot overlords bent on the destruction of mankind?

Doctor Who: Dark Water Review °Spoilers

This episode is exactly what I´ve been waiting for, finally some decent writing. Plus there´s the added bonus that maybe just maybe Clara will be turned into a cyberman. Oh I hope she gets turned into a cyberman. And I´m going to just nose dive into the spoilers here so if you didn´t watch the episode don´t read more, and if you do don´t blame me because I warned you. Clara, is a total back stabbing evil little b!$ch. She could have cost the Doctor everything. Who else is happy that she is leaving the TARDIS. I guess the TARDIS was right in not liking her because hse knew that Clara would betray the Doctor.

And then we have finally Missy, but how I wonder did she manage to not get turned into a cyberman or deleted? Oh well. I really love that the Master is Missy so could this be a hint that soon we will have a female Doctor, but I hope it´s not too soon because I love Capaldi as the Doctor and I would like to see him pair up with a decent companion. I´m really excited about the season finally.

Doctor Who- Kill the Moon Review °Spoilers

Okay well, I finally had some time to watch Kill the Moon and to be honest I was really supprised by how much I liked it. The previous episodes were less than to be desired but this I thought was pretty good. I liked that they calmed the doctor down a bit and also, needless to say if you have not seen this episode do not continue reading because as River Song says Spoilers!

So first thing first why the hell did the Doctor tell Courtney that she wasn´t special I mean talk about being a jerk at this moment I have to agree with Clara. I wanted to slap him too but then thinks get a bit better when the Doctor tries to make up for that but sending them to the moon and making it so Courtney was the first woman on the moon I mean really he couldn´t just say sorry and then take her to the moon? When the Doctor introduces himself for lack of better words to the astronauts he says that he might regenerate forever and if that´s true then it becomes somewhat evident that the BBC is not planning on stopping at 12 and will continue going. Which I assumed before but this line kinda afirms it. And another thing I love is that Capaldi´s pockets are bottomless I mean one day he´s going to pull a kitchen sink out of there seriously lol, but I did like that they gave him a yoyo to play with.
And then “That´s what you do with aliens… blow them up¨ gawd, what a line. I mean yes that technically would solve the problem but come on but what I really loved about that line was the reaction from both Clara and the Doctor. The Doctor is like crap this again and Clara´s a mix of shocked and surprised while doing maybe one of the more important shots Courtney is nowhere to be seen. Despite the fact that the Tumblr comment was funny how on earth did the Doctor not clearly see that from the beginning that Courtney was taking pictures with her cellphone and not tell her to cut it out. I mean in general I don´t even see a need for this character except to have another tin dog but lets face it K-9 would be a better companion that Courtney at this moment. Also a Mexican Mining survey and they didn't do the most elementary step in going with Rovers to check if the moon had minerals before sending 4 Mexcian Scientist to the moon really but well I guess I shouldn´t put too much logic into Doctor Who. However what would be interesting and I hope that they do it because now they have Courtney, they could go back to the original premis of the show to teach history by going to the past and Science by going into the future. That would be kinda awesome. And I kinda hate the Astronaut lackies just a bit too stupid for my taste but well, at least they kill them off fast. And how on earth do they let four scientist go missing for 10 years without any attempt of a rescue? And then we hear the shrieking child, I mean I half get it but really she did wonder off by herself? But as an added bonus the Doctor names some of the Sea´s or Maria on the moon. For those who don´t know Maria are large dark bits on the moon that were caused by ancient volcano´s. The reason they are known as sea´s is because early astronomers mistook them for sea´s. Kinda cool huh? Anyway moving along, also not


sure but couldn´t the doctor just talk to the moonspiders using telepathy? And ask them not to attack offer them safe haven etc? Instead of the moonspiders killing more people? I also liked that the doctor despite being a jerk before and saying that Courtney wasn´t special, fought to get her out of the locked room with the moonspider and then she magically pulls disinfectant spray out of the air. What kid carries disenfectant spray with them? What is she a germaphobe or something? I also think its worth noting that the doctor is basically salivating over a dead space germ, I mean I get it but the head austronaut lady is freaking out about how her comrad just died and the Doctor doesn´t blink an eye because he´s too busy looking at a dead space bug. I mean I get it but a bit of sympathy wouldn´t hurt. Then after they lock Courtney in the Tardis (which I think they should have done a long time ago) and Clara acts like she knows everything saying the the moon doesn´t blow up because she saw it in the future (Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey).


Then the Doctor goes on for what was an interesting sort of monologue about how he see´s time,
something that´s been brought up before but never fully explained gets a little clearer here.  Okay and I admit I jumped when the moonspider attacked the doctor. Anyone else? Its okay show of hands.  And can anyone tell me why exactly the disinfectant wouldn´t work? ¨There´s no water on the moon¨, let me be clear this is not completely right, sure it doesn´t exist on the surface but there are ice capsules at the poles underground. So technically yes, there is water on the moon just not as liquid water. And here comes the realization the the moon is hatching, which in and of itself is actually a really cool idea but what does it hatch into a giant tick, I was totally expecting a starwhale or a dragon of some type but nope space tick. And while the Doctor is going off about how cool and unique it is here comes astronaut lady to ask how to kill it. I mean really and then the Doctor gets pissed and is like nope Im not gonna put up with this bullshit and what I really think is that, this is a test for Clara, to see if she would do the right thing under pressure with people telling her to something that she knows inside of her is wrong. Whereas I can understand the Doctor I can understand Clara too. The Doctor wants to test her. And Clara who always used to being told by the Doctor what to do suddenly finds herself left to solve a massive problem by herself and without the Doctors help she feels abandoned. Despite the fact that the doctor flew away in his Tardis I think he didn´t just go off to twiddle his tumbs I think that he made it so that Clara could do her broadcast. What do you guys think? Also I´m sorry right but how does crazy astronaut lady know that its a exoparasite? I mean really at that point she supposedly hasn´t even seen it, right? And I love that both Courtney and Clara push the abort button at the same time and then bam there´s the Doctor. I really loved this part. And frankly I loved the end monologue given by Capaldi, this Doctor is really shaping up to be be both entertaining and enjoyable to watch. But then of course Clara has to come, and I think rightly so too and stands up to the doctor. That I think really shows a bit of character evolution in her whereas with the 11th doctor she was like a puppy behind him, she shows the 12th doctor that she can be independant and speak her mind and that he can´t just push her into any problem without help. She draws barriers for him and I think thats good.  


So, what did you think about this episode? Did you like it, hate it?


What do you think about having a kid in the Tardis?


Leave me a comment and let me know.


And last but certainly not least here is a workout to do while you watch the 12th doctor. What do you think? Give it a go :)

Doctor Who: In the Forest of the Night Review °Spoilers

So, like many episodes this season this episode was not anywhere near as good as the preview, I totally expected something diffrent. Something better but instead we ended up with another horrible episode. Featuring Clara and Danny Pink and guest staring the Doctor. I mean I get that the Doctor, for whatever reason needs companions but does he really need Clara? She lies even to the Doctor and yet somehow he doesn´t even talk to her about it? Really? I love Peter Capaldi as the Doctor but honestly I hope Clara gets shot by a dalek. So I guess that´s enough Clara hate for the moment, sorry, her character only drags the Doctor down but moving right along.

Anyone else see the little girl and instantly think of Amelia Pond? Or realize once again the fairy tale referance, Red Ridding Hood, her jacket was red, and she was chased in a moment by wolfs. But really why is the Doctor wearing a shirt with holes in it? And I´m sorry but I just don´t feel anything for Danny Pink, he´s just not used very much and is more like a pet that pops up everyonce in awhile, Anyone else feel the same?

 And Im sorry but what the TARDIS is a TomTom now? When did the doctor add that brilliant bit of tech?And what class only has 10 kids?

And Danny worried about the Doctor taking care of Maven, really? Sorry, but moments like this I just want to slap him in the head, honestly. But, I do love when Maven one ups the Doctor. I want Maven for Companion! Who´s with me? 

So, the class bully is taking selfies with the kids he terrorizes great because that makes total sense. And the flashback shows that not only is Clara a horrible person but she is a horrible teacher. I mean what teacher allows a student the time and ability to punch another? 

Why are there a ton of kids in the TARDIS? I mean really, make yourself at home Clara. And Im sorry right I love Doctor Who and everything but the Doctor is basicaly encouraging people, mentally ill people not to take thier meds. Which can only lead to disaster. 


¨If this is an invasion, thier here and they won¨ sorry but what the heck, this is so unlike the Doctor, giving up before even trying. What happened? And, Mave´s mom is the only one trying to find her kid? What happened to the other parents? ¨Class Project Save the Earth¨ is the best part of this episode. So what did you think?  

The Walking Dead Season Five Plus Thoughts on Assault on Arkham



 The Walking Dead Season 5 starts with a bang and continues through to the end as always. Terminus is not only creapy but as the characters soon find out the residents of the compound are cannibales. And as if thats not enough the characters step up even more thier level of badassery. And when it comes to badassery no one does it better than Carol. She is by far my favorite character and I´m glad she has been reaccepted into the group.


So, who is your  favorite character? Drop a comment and let me know. 





The next episode looks really cool now too, check out the preview.



 



Assault on Arkham 

I have to say I really thought that this would be really good but I was very very mistaken not only was the animation lack luster but it was down right horrible in moments, with characters keeping the exact same expression no matter how many times they got punched in the face.

Plus I thought the story was just plain awful, bringing in characters for no real reason, but what did you think?
