The Cheese Stands Alone

 Th 10/22/26 8am (1/2 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 75 mg total). No weed. 1010am (4-B: Maui Wowie). 1230pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  ***75 mg was a very nice ride, but the additional mg's didn't really make a significant difference in intensity although I was affected longer. Next I'll do 1/4 of a 150 mg. Equal to 25 mg VIIA 'Day Drift'? Up 650am: Sunny & pleasant with temps to mid 70's.  Wrote up 'OIL!' by Upton Sinclair for the blog. Watched 'THE STORM' (Netflix). Guests at a remote estate in rural Sweden get snowed in and the inhibitions come off. Magic mushrooms, liquor and maybe a cannabis vape pen are ingested and inner resentments boil to the surface (in a nonsensical manner). It's been done better and the film merely follows the same tired blueprint. Worth a look, but just barely.  Finished 'INSIDE THE CIRCLE' (Netflix). The Military or The Northern Cartel- Who was behind the murder of the actress...

 We 10/21/26 8am {1/4 VIIA 'Day Drift' 100 mg 'the last one': 25 mg total}. 8am (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 1225pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 535pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie). 830pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  Up 710am: Bright & sunny with temps to mid 70's.  Watched 'RICH FLU' (Kanopy). A 'Hate The Rich' tale where a deadly virus affects  only the super rich. It destroys the world because nobody can trade, invest or sell because they might be considered 'rich' and risk dying of the new plague. In the epilogue the survivors revert to a 3rd world lifestyle where all things of worth are 'redistributed', but in the final scene it seems that possessiveness (greed ?) might have returned; with Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Timothy Spall, Rafe Spall (son of Timothy Spall). Very droll.      Watched 'NAZI COLLABORATORS' (Amazon Prime). In 1916 Ireland split into two separate nation states. Before the start of WWII The Irish Republican Army (IRA) made plans to ...

 Tu 10/20/26 8am {1/4 VIIA 'Day Drift' 100 mg: 25 mg total}. 805am (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 1255pm (GB: 4/ Maui Wowie). 530pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  Up 640am: Sunny with temps to low 70's. Did a 'Tuesday Restart'  ***I entered the new credit card to Amazon with no problem, but it took Xfinity twenty minutes of watching it trying to digest the change...spin, spin, spin. I finally got it to take. Even though I got a confirmation email I won't know for sure until the card takes the first charge. Watched 'SACRIFICE' (Netflix). Until the last section of the film it was a very funny satire on 'The One Percenters' vs. 'The (Violent!) Defenders of Mother Nature'. Cockeyed Premise: "The world ends in three days unless we throw three people into the volcano". The glib discussions and cracked points of view were clever and funny, although I was surprised to learn that when they arrived at the site of the sacrificial...

 Mo 10/19/26 720am (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 720am { 1/4 VIIA 'Day Drift' 100 mg: 25 mg total}. 935am (4-B: Maui Wowie). 1220pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 530pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie). 830pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  Up 630am: Mostly cloudy with temps to about 70. Both of my arms are pretty sore from yesterday's shots. I'm glad I didn't take both in one arm because doubling this pain in one arm would be downright painful. I did 25 mg, and I'm hoping to 'psychedelize' the discomfort.  Watched 'LITTLE TROUBLE GIRLS' (Hoopla- last pick). An all girls high school choir travels to The Monastery of Santa Maria (a real place and it dates back to the 8th century) to practice for a recital. It's one of the most oblique 'sexual coming of age' films that I've seen. Nothing romantic occurs and it's more that the film tries to honestly depict how curious teenage virgins experience nascent sexuality. "81" Metascore and I would go to "90...

Su 10/18/26- Flu & COVID  shots 810am (GB: Green Crack). 1220pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 540pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  Up 645am: Sunny & breezy with temps to mid 60's.  Weekly Cleaning ***I made an online appointment for flu and COVID shots today at 330pm with the Walgreens at Monroe and Lawrence.  Watched 'WETIKO' (Kanopy). A young man in the Yucatan Peninsula works in his mother's pet shop and his task is to deliver a couple of toads to a religious ceremony that is to convene deep in the jungle. Shamans need the 'milk' of the toads to deliver 'the true' psychedelic experience of the ancient Mayan gods. It's kind of an 'art film' by default because I think that the filmmakers bit off a little more than they could chew, but an 'B-plus' for the effort. Filmed in the Yucatan Peninsula which is in extreme southern Mexico adjacent to Guatemala and Belize. The director, Kerry Mondragon, filmed the thriller on...

 Sa 10/17/26 740am (GB: Green Crack). 1225pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie). 220pm (4-B: Maui Wowie). 430pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie). 530pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie).  Up 650am {restless night}. Bright & sunny with temps only to upper 50's. The heat is 'ON' and kicked on today for the first time this season.  Watched 'TELL THEM YOU LOVE ME' (Hoopla). Facilitated Communication- Supported typing or spelling to communicate. The 'supporter' is unconsciously (?) doing the communicating. The theory completely collapses in a double-blind test; ex. When the disabled person is shown a picture of a cup and the facilitator is shown a key, the disabled person will always type 'key'. Anna Stublefield was sentenced to 12 years and got out in less than 2 years on appeal. Since none of their typed 'communications' were allowed in the first trial she won a retrial and the sentence was reduced on a lesser charge.  840am; I noticed a prompt for a ...
