Tu 10/27/26- Joe 1130am: Red Oak/ Groceries

 Tu 10/27/26- Joe 1130am: Red Oak/ Groceries 720am (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 535pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 835pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 630am: Mostly cloudy with temps to lower 70's. Watched 'TWIN MURDERS: THE SILENCE OF THE WHITE CITY' (Netflix). A novelist is in jail for committing murders that seemed to be reenacted from his fiction, but now it looks like a copycat killer is on the loose. The killer poses his victims as Adam & Eve and they are strapped naked (but tastefully covered with sunflowers) to a table and murdered by being forced to inhale bees. Basically, they are stung to death from the inside out. The film features lots of jogging and ferocious foot chases around and through picturesque castles and cathedrals. The film is based on a novel by Eva Garcia Saenz de Urturi. This book was immensely popular and thousands of fans came to Vitoria-Gasteiz to follow literary tours that feature the real-life settings from the book. I had seen this before and gave it o...

Mo 10/26/26

 Mo 10/26/26 840am (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 1250pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese...New Strain). 535pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 830pm (GB:5/ Hammerhead).  Up 720am: A mix of haze & sun with temps to mid 70's.  Watched 'CLEANER' (Netflix). A forensic cleaner (who is a retired cop) is sent to clean up after the grisly murder of a mobster who has a book containing the names of all the bent cops in the department. He learns that his ex partner was having an affair with the lady of the house and the murder had nothing to do with corruption within the police force. It's a well-done 'B- Movie' and well worth a look; with Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, Eva Mendes, Luis Guzman, Robert Forster. "49" Metascore and I would bump that to "75".  Directed by Renny Harlin who is "the most successful Finnish film director in the history of Hollywood".  Although the film was shot mainly in Shreveport, Louisiana, the setting of the film is Trenton, New Jersey and o...

Partly sunny with temps to upper 70's.  Weekly Cleaning Added 'SLIP EASILY INTO ANOTHER WORLD: A LIFE IN MUSIC' by Henry Threadgill to the blog. Watched 'BLACK ZOMBIE' (Kanopy). A documentary about the social implications of the Zombie Genre in contemporary cinema and what it might signify..."A deep seated fear of 'The Other'- Jews, Immigrants, Blacks, Catholics, and Transsexuals". 1791 Haitian Revolution; 30,000 whites & 500,000,000 slaves on the island of Haiti. When they won the revolution, none of the European powers would trade with the new country. However, France made an agreement that they would resume trade only if the Haitians paid back the slave holders. The nation of Haiti didn't pay this ...

Sa 10/24/26

 Sa 10/24/26 815am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 total}. 815am (GB: 4/ Hammerhead). 915am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  205pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 535pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 835am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 730am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to mid 70's. I have vowed to tackle the lawn; hack the 'gardens' in back and maybe even mow the grass for the last time this season. {only some of what actually happened} Watched 'SURVIVING HURRICANE OTIS' (Netflix). An almost silly tale about a couple of half brothers who are employed on a moored yacht during Hurricane Otis. Kind of like a clumsy 'The Perils of Pauline' set at sea with two guys on a mid-sized boat during a hurricane. Lots of soaked clinging bodies while the special effects machines roar. A documentary about the real storm would have been far more interesting. We 10/25/23- Acapulco, Mexico: The actual weather front developed so quickly that people went to sleep thinking it was only...

Fr 10/23/26

 Fr 10/23/26 725am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 725am (GB: 5/ Maui Wowie). 825am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead INDICA)...This is the first Indica that I've smoked in years- very nice but the gummie is (?) a factor.  1025am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  1240pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 5/  Hammerhead).  Up 640am: Another sunny & pleasant day with temps to mid 70's.  Watched 'GANDHARI' (Netflix). An Indian couple's young daughter is kidnapped and mom morphs into a 'super agent' to expose and decimate an international child kidnapping ring. So bad that the film was almost good. Mom's martial arts skills wouldn't fool a half-bright seven year old and the only thing that made the film watchable were the authentic sets and locations. The film features a group called 'BAHRUPIYAS' that are a traditional community of nomadic folk artists who are masked gypsy street performers. It was set in West Bengal which is near the bord...

Th 10/22/26

 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

 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 ...
