Th 4/9/26

 Th 4/9/26 730am {1/2 VIIA 'Day Drift' 100mg: 50 mg total}.  730am (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn).  1225pm (GB: 5/ Green Apple Gas). 535pm (GB: 5/Green Apple Gas). Up 630am: Partly cloudy & breezy with temps to upper 70's. Watched 'ANATOMY OF A FALL' (Netflix). It's a detailed examination and exploration of the far-reaching consequences of an accident, a murder or a possible suicide. A man is found dead in the snow after a fall from the third floor of his chalet. Was it suicide, accidental, or was he pushed out the window by his wife?  All the forensic evidence is debatable, and his wife counters any argument that attempts to cast her as the murderer. It's a satisfying conclusion because it works if she did it or if she successfully proved her innocence. The film was shot in the French Alps near Grenoble. Won 1 Oscar; 131 wins & 191 nominations. "86" Metascore and I would go to "94". TIME OUT- "Watch it with a partner and argue abou...

We 4/8/26

 We 4/8/26 715am (GB: 6/ Hybrid Popcorn). 955am (4-B: Green Apple Gas). 1155am (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 545pm [3 blasts new portable vape...still not sure how to use, however very potent when it works]. 610pm {a single blast new vape/ very strong).  Up 620am: A mix of sun & clouds, breezy with temps to low 70's. My phone was down to 14% capacity and I put it on charge all night. I did use it for almost the entire day on Tuesday.   Watched 'SON OF A GUN' (Netflix). A slightly different wrinkle on the 'Crime/ Prison/ Heist' genre film. A smart kid lands in prison with an archcriminal and they team up to steal six bars of gold worth millions. Lots of sneering and posturing, but mostly it's compelling. Philosophical Premise: Humans evolved from 2 species: Bonobo & Chimpanzee- Chimps are fighters & Bonobos are lovers; Ewan McGregor, Brenton Thwaites, Alicia Vikander (married to Michael Fassbender). Filmed in southwestern Australia; Melbourne to Kalgoorlie...

Tu 4/7/26- Ordered Marshall Speaker

 Tu 4/7/26- Ordered Marshall Speaker 640am (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 830am (4- B: Green Apple Gas). 1140am (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 125pm (2- B: Green Apple Gas). 535pm (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 835pm (GB: 4/ Green Apple Gas).  Up 530am: {couldn't sleep}. Possible snow showers & freezing rain this morning {no precipitation}, then breezy & cloudy with temps to about 50. Watched 'ANATOMY OF A FALL' (Netflix).  No, change of plans. More "SOMETHING BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN' (Netflix). I shut it down 35 minutes into episode #4. It's about a curse on the family's bloodline. If you don't marry by sundown on your wedding day, you die, and if you don't marry your 'soulmate', you also die. Who decides if you've picked the correct 'soulmate'? This is definitely an odd tale & a 'binge worthy' series.  For a change of pace....'Jo Nesbo's DETECTIVE HOLE' (Netflix). I shut it down 24 minutes into the fourth episode. ...

Mo 4/6/26

 Mo 4/6/26 710am {1/4 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 715am (GB: 6/ a mix of Hybrid & Green). 1045am (2 monster rips on Green Crack disposable).  1250pm (GB: 6/ Green Apple Gas).  540pm (GB: 7/ Green Apple Gas). 840pm (GB: 5/ Green Apple Gas).  Up 615am: Partly cloudy & breezy with temps to almost 60. Watched 'MARDAANI 3' (Netflix). Another tale of a female police officer who is tougher and smarter than any guy on the force. The film pushes this angle so hard that the movie is unintentionally hilarious. Poor girls are being abducted at an alarming rate and it's been largely ignored by authorities and the media. Things change when the Turkish ambassador's daughter goes missing. The film features some of the lamest hand to hand combat ever recorded and it is pure comedy gold. Filmed in Mumbai & Delhi, India. Mumbai is on the southwestern coast of the country and Delhi is 870 miles to the north near Nepal. Wrote a Chat Began 'MOUTH TO MOUTH...

Su 4/5/26- Easter At Pleasant Plains: 2pm

 Su 4/5/26- Easter At Pleasant Plains: 2pm 815am (GB: 5/ Green Apple Gas). 1005am (GB: 5/ Green Apple Gas). 545pm {a couple rips/ black portable vape on the way home from Pleasant Plains). 6pm (one monster hit on the new 'Green Crack' disposable -1st tune used- and what a nice high). 750pm (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn)...very high...  Up 645am: Sunny & breezy with temps to high 50's. Weekly Cleaning Watched 'BORDER HUNTERS' (Netflix). It's an odd film about America's 'War On Drugs'. The premise is that the US authorities publicly proclaim the horror of Fentanyl, but they really like it. The Fentanyl 'scare' caused a 60% drop in cocaine use and if a few American addicts have to die, well that's just 'Making America Great Again'; with Dean Norris. Filmed near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico which is on Mexico's western coast at the southern part of the Gulf of California. 10am: Preparing for a 5 mile walk on the treadmill before the visit...

Sa 4/4/26

 Sa 4/4/26 650am {1/4 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 655am (GB: 7/ Hybrid Popcorn). 9am (4-B: Green Apple Gas). 1250pm (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 535pm (GB: 5/ Green Apple Gas).  Up 6am: Morning showers give way to cloudy skies, breezy with temps to about 60. Watched '10 x 10' (Netflix). Another film where suspension of disbelief is imperative. A man kidnaps a woman in the parking lot of an LA Fitness in suburban Atlanta. For over half of the film it isn't revealed why the man has taken this woman. The answer is so far-fetched that the action might as well have occurred in an alternative universe. The kidnapped woman was a nurse (she's assumed the identity of her dead twin) and was a kind of 'angel of death' and she wants a new start away from the hospital authorities, the police, and the media. The kidnapped woman killed the man's wife because she was cheating on him and the nurse liked to punish sinners. File under 'torture porn' at no...

Fr 4/3/26

 Fr 4/3/26 745am (GB: 7/ Hybrid Popcorn). 1025am (3-B: Green Apple Gas). 1205pm (GB: 4/ Hybrid Popcorn). 230pm (2: black pen vape/  2 hits). 535pm (GB: 6/ Hybrid Popcorn). Up 645am: Cloudy with storms predicted for this afternoon and tonight and temps to about 80. ***Just as I began the film I noticed a prompt for a 'restart'. This was the update that produced the black & white frizzy distortion on the downstairs PC. This morning's update was completely ordinary and no 'snow squall', but big anxiety.  Watched 'THE GIANT FALLS' (Netflix). A father has terminal cancer and visits his adult son who he has not seen or spoken to in twenty-eight years ago. He wants to 'reconnect' with the son and the boy's mother, who was the love of his life. The son gives him poison (assisted suicide from the neighborhood 'shaman') so that he can end his life with dignity, and everyone lives happily ever after. The young man was cited by the police for bea...
