Th 5/14/26- Mowed Lawn

 Th 5/14/26- Mowed Lawn 650am (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 740am (4-B: Green Crack). 9am (5-B: Green Crack). 410pm (GB: 5/ Cat Piss). 535pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 830pm (GB: 6/ Green Crack).  Up 550am: Bright & sunny with temps to mid 70's.  ***Goddammit, a fucking prompt to 'restart' right as I was preparing to begin the film. Completed in under three minutes and now I get a list of what is to be done. The last couple of updates have targeted the 'drivers' and I wish them well. {Later in the afternoon I read an online article saying that Microsoft will require more 'restarts' this month. They're making some big changes to Windows 11 and Windows 10 will be dropped in October}.   Watched 'THOSE WHO REMAINED' (Amazon Prime). A strange film about a teenage girl and her lonely gynecologist. Set in Hungary in 1948, the country is now under the control of the Soviets and the people are suffering various traumas and deprivations from the end of the war. Both the ...

We 5/13/26

 We 5/13/26 640am (GB: 5/ Cat Piss; the one-hitter works fine with a tiny nugget, but it is a dicey hassle). 645am {1/2 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 75 mg total}. 735am (5-B: Green Crack). 930am (4-B: Green Crack). 1140am (3-B: Green Crack). 1255pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 240pm (4-B: Green Crack). 435pm (GB: 5/Green Crack). 535pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 830pm (GB: 6/ Green Crack). Up 530am: Bright & breezy with temps to about 70.  Watched 'MY DEAREST SENORITA' (Netflix). Adela (A.D.) saved $6,000,000 Spanish pesetas which is about $40,000 usd. Filmed in Pamplona, Spain. 'Intersex' is an umbrella term describing people born with physical sex traits that don't fit typical biological male or female definitions. One point seven (1.7%) of the world population is born with intersex traits, making it about as common as having red hair. The movie is upbeat and shows that intersex can be a synthesis of the best of masculine and feminine characteristics...if you work at it.   So...

Tu 5/12/26

 Tu 5/12/26 645am {1/2 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 75 mg total}. 645am (GB: 6-B: Green Crack). 720am (6-B: Green Crack). 910am (4-B: Green Crack). 1015am (4-B: Green Crack). 1240pm (GB: 7/ Cat Piss). 540pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 830pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss).  Up 6am: Mostly sunny and breezy (Wind & Dust Advisory In Effect) and temps to low 80's. Watched 'THE GUNMAN' (Netflix). A mercenary working for a multinational in the Congo is contracted to assassinate their minister of mining. He must leave the continent, but years later, while in retirement, he realizes that someone is trying to kill him and it's somehow tied to the Congo operation. Kind of hokey, but somewhat worth a look; with Sean Penn, Idris Elba, Javier Bardem, Jasmine Trinca, Ray Winstone, Mark Rylance. "39" Metascore and I would go to "73".   Finished 'UNCHOSEN' (Netflix). The young woman and her daughter leave the cult and the silver-tongued devil becomes the new 'head pasto...

Mo 5/11/26

 Mo 5/11/26 7am {1/2 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 75 mg total}. 7am (GB: 6/ Green Crack). 735am (5-B: Cat Piss). 935am (4-B: Green Crack). 1245pm (GB: 5/ Cat Piss). 535pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 825pm (GB: 6/ Green Crack).  Up 610am: Bright & breezy with temps to low 70's.  ***Just as I was about to begin the film, I noticed a prompt to 'restart'. I scheduled a 'restart' at 915pm tonight. This didn't seem to work when I set a time for the restart on the downstairs PC. Watched 'PEAKY BLINDERS: THE IMMORTAL MAN' (Netflix). I thought it would bring back plots from the series, but I didn't remember anything. I was confusing it with the movie 'GANGS OF NEW YORK'. The movie was an engaging 'stand alone' with a very novel premise.  The Germans attempted to win the war by bringing down the economy of Britain. They devised a plan to flood the country with millions in counterfeit money and create super-inflation. Oddity: All of the cash is in...

Su 5/10/26

 Su 5/10/26 7am {1/2 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 75 mg total}. 7am (GB: 7/ Green Crack). 8am (5-B: Cat Piss). 920am (5-B: Cat Piss). 1225pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 210pm (4-B: Cat Piss). 435pm (GB: 3/ Cat Piss). 530pm (GB: 6/ Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss).  Up 530am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to about 70. Weekly Cleaning Watched 'INFERNAL AFFAIRS' (Kanopy- the basis for the American film 'THE DEPARTED'). The cinematography was superb but the storyline was more than a little hard to follow. It seems like it was taken from a deep and well written Police Procedural novel. Both 'INFERNAL AFFAIRS' & 'THE DEPARTED' tell the same story, but differently. "75" Metascore and I'm surprised it wasn't higher and I'd go to "90".  Watched 'ANIMAL KINGDOM' (Tubi). Wow! The movie was much more insightful and edgy than the series. The actor who plays, Jay the sixteen year old waif is perfectly cast as a cagy ye...

Sa 5/9/26

 Sa 5/9/26 740am {1/2 'Extreme Chill' 150 mg: 75 mg total}. 745am (GB: 7/ Green Crack). 830am (5-B: Cat Piss). 1235pm (6-B/ Green Crack). 540pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss). 825pm (GB: 6/ Cat Piss).  Up 630am: Fog early, then mostly sunny with temps to upper 70's.  Added three books to the blog:  Watched 'SHUTTLE' (Amazon Prime). It's a bad movie with a terrific ending. A late night airport shuttle driver kidnaps a load of passengers on the last run of the night. It gets pretty bloody, and you never know the driver's motive until the very end and it does keep you guessing. He's just part of a human trafficking outfit that specializes in kidnapping beautiful women for international prostitution. The final scene is a shot of the baggage claim area on the next morning as one of the kidnapped woman's bags finally arrives, although the owner is now shanghaied and her old life is dead. The ending was shocking, but the movie was just a gorefest and totally implausible...

Painfully slow high drama about a man suffering from PTSD who lives in the woods as a hermit. After twenty years of exile, his older brother pays a visit to get him to return and meet the son that he abandoned. It features a very freaky and violent hail storm. Filmed in Anglesey, Wales, and Chester, England. Chester is about 25 miles south of Liverpool and Anglesey is in far western Wales. "The exquisite agony of self-denial". Payback for rape by a priest..."I manured him". An IRA bomb explodes and embeds the teeth of one man into the side of another man...
