More than Reality

Thursday, August 20, 2009




There are a lot of programs now lined up in major broadcast networks that fail to capture the essence of having a reality show. My Dad even sleeps on some of them the whole hour. My elder sister however is a scared cat so she is the one who ends up screaming on great ones that successfully touches the audiences every now and then. Reality TV has never been better for me though until I learned about the the truTV effect. If you do not know what that is, then you are missing half your life!

There is this show called Halloween Heist by the Masterminds which I religiously follow in truTV video. With the situations and creepy parts so real, you will feel that you are even in the video itself! I was so afraid once that I had to turn on the lights while watching it because if you do not then all these other ghosts and horror filled thoughts will surely fill your mind. This is just awesome viewing in the comfort of your own home. There are also other episodes you might want to try like this newly released one about tough necks from Texas oil fields:



See what I mean about it being better than reality TV? It is a whole lot better than those conventional ones that feel sometimes artificial because they are in one way or the other already scripted. I wonder how this would really feel if I watched this with my sister soon, she will definitely scream! Ha-ha! And what is better is that they even have promos that you can join while enjoying these awesome oil swash buckling episodes! Watch it with caution because when the stories are real, the effect is A C T U A L!

Foodie Event News!

Good news guys!

I just received a reply from the foodie event organizer about my enthusiasm in joining the event on September and it seems that things are getting a little bit smoother. They have not yet finalized the venue so there are still some matters for them to arrange, but just the thought of them replying to my email this morning means I have got a huge chance of going to this event. Check out her reply…

Hi Troy!

We are still finalizing the venue and will keep you posted if we can invite you to join.
Thank you for your interest to be one of the tasters!

Ms. Rache,

Hi there! I'm TROY a photographer and owner of KUMAGCOW.COM and would like to let you know my interest in attending this upcoming food event. I have written a couple of food reviews in my site and would really love to get to know foodies like me and the great food new establishments would like to offer. If there is an RSVP please let me be number one on that list.

Thanks!

Regards,


TROY

See what I mean? It really pays to ask people. Now that this has been really positively received from the organizers, I don't think there would be anything else that they could tell me to stop wishing to go there. I will go there by hook or by crook heheh. Not unlike that Goldilocks event by Nuffnang where they suddenly had emailed me about an attendee list of some sort. I was not able to go there because of that. This will be one event I will not miss. Surely gonna be another event food will not be wasted! hahahah!

Dangerous Black Gold



Imagine being put into a situation where your life is at stake. You battle huge fires, enjoy dirty, filthy clothes, men sweating, hard labor, huge drills, wells and derricks just to get a glimpse of that BLACK GOLD everybody is looking for.




In this lifetime where everyone is dependent on oil, we all wish we could look for that spot where you can get millions of barrels of oil so you can sell them to the highest bidder. Texas is filthy rich of this particular ingredient we use for any petroleum based products, but nobody knows the danger and hardships that go between getting that and pumping it into your car's engine. I'm sure if a lot of them already perished during just the exploration, there is more to see in this particular episode from truTV's Black Gold which premieres August 19th at 10p/9c and with all new episodes Wednesdays at 10p/9c.


If I were one of the rough neck men that are put into these hard and hot places, I would probably faint just seeing explosions here and there. At the sight of fires bigger than me, I would be one sissy looking under that hot sweltering sun. I would not survive being part of truTV's Black Gold drilling because it would be too hard even for a big guy like me. It would take guts and a lot of fire trucks to hose me down. You can really imagine that you are in that particular place and state because of the real life television program they make. You should watch that truTV's Black Gold trailer so you know how it feels. Only TRUTV does that!

RICO BLANCO, Thursday @ Eastwood

Photobucket



Just this morning I was watching the events unfold on the upcoming food event from another website I follow called http://www.awesomeplanet.com. I was wishing I could attend their foodie event come September since I am leaning towards food photography too aside from the usual Model/Fashion/Glamor Photography I have been doing for the past few months since Trish (my Nikon D60) arrived. I really want to go to this one specifically because I had to make sure my food writing and critique skills be put to the test. The cow in me has been eating that much these days that it would be beneficial for both of us to give it a shot. I already did a review on STACKERS and a few other restaurants in Eastwood. I also did Pho Hoa from Tomas Morato so if it turns out that I like this like I like it now, it will be a regular thing for me and my readers.

Tomorrow it will be another day so I have to get them clickers ready so I can practice doing Food Photography. Not to mention EVENTS because next Thursday, August 27, 2009 Rico Blanco will be in Eastwood for a small concert. I'm surely going to be there!
