Weekly Cleaning Watched 'WILD AT HEART' (Amazon Prime). I must have seen this classic from 1990, but I don't remember any of it. It's the torrid love affair between 'a robber and a manslaughterer' and a young woman who 'never says 'No' to Love'. Lynch creates a quirky hyper-realism that's painstakingly and intentionally hilarious; with Nicolas Cage, Laura Dern, Willem Dafoe, Crispin Glover, Diane Ladd, Isabella Rossellini, Harry Dean Stanton. Directed by David Lynch..."The whole world's wild at heart and weird on top". Nominated for 1 Oscar; 5 wins & 13 nominations. "52" Metascore and I would happily go to "91". The range was from "90...

 Sa 9/12/26 805am (GB: 5/ Durban Poison). 845am (6-LB: Durban Poison).{905am took 1/4 VIIA 'Day Drift' 100 mg: 25 mg total}. 1210pm (GB: 4/ Durban Poison). 315pm (4-B: Durban Poison). 530pm (GB: 5/ Durban Poison). 815pm  9GN: 5/ Durban Poison). Up 715am: Mostly sunny with temps to almost 90. {windows open for a while}. The Oaks street sale is going full swing. The house with the two girls has loads of junk and the people up the street have some full driveways. I slapped a 'FREE' sign on the living room lamp that I'm trying to get rid of. If somebody doesn't take it I will try to fit into the big blue can. {No takers by noon and I put the lamp in the garage for disposal}. ***25 mg was a prudent amount dose because I really got off. I was flying and it creates an excellent foundation for light rips on the bong. Four hours later and I was still buzzed. Watched '1408' (Kanopy). A ghost hunter tries to stay the night in a 'haunted' Manhattan hotel roo...

Cloudy and humid with temps just over 80. {windows open} Yesterday during the rain a large branch fell at the house next door. The wood was rotted and I think that the soaking rain yesterday absorbed weight and caused it to fall. I put the branches in the gutter to be picked up.  I moved the standing lamp that shorts out in the living room. It isn't going to work and I've got to buy a lamp that directs the light to where I need it to read.  745am: Preparing to head to Cherry Hills in my new 'funeral' outfit; new Target shirt & suit pants from Jamie's wedding.  Joe called yesterday while I was on the treadmill around 5pm. He said that they would be there about 830am and I said I'd be there about 9am. Who is going to be able to attend if you have a job?  I watched a little of ...

Nice! 8am: I noticed a prompt to 'restart'. No difference is performance.  Watched 'Irena's Vow' (Netflix). Soon after the invasion of Poland a local woman becomes the housekeeper (and later his lover) for a high ranking Nazi officer. She was able to hide eleven Jews in the house that they shared (he was oblivious) until the end of the war. It's a Canadian film that was shot in Poland and based on the life of Irena Gut. "77" Metascore and I would go to "81".  Began 'BUNNY' (Netflix). I thought that I heard that the director of this film worked with Mark Normand and Sam Morrill on their upcoming movie. I shut...

Watched 'THE WELL' (Hoopla). A very bland post-apocalyptic story about small groups of people trying to survive. Water is scarce and one 'family' must find a replacement part for their well to remain clean. It's a very slow moving plot and not much of a story to care about.  Filmed in Hamilton, Ontario which is just west of Niagara Falls. Watched 'INSTADOCS- THE DECOY PLANE' (Netflix- 30"). The mini-documentary details how Trump slipped off Air Force One into a catering truck in Turkey following a NATO summit on July 8, 2026, switching to a smaller military aircraft to evade a reported security threat involving Iran while reporters unknowingly stayed on the decoy plane. I guess the angle seemed to be that Trump was able ...

Up 730am: Plenty of sunshine and temps to 90. {Windows open early, but AC  later} Watched 'KILLING THEM SOFTLY' (Hoopla). It's what might happen if two goons tried to knock over a high stakes poker game that's protected by the mob. Very well done with a stellar cast; Brad Pitt, Ray Liotta, Richard Jenkins, Scoot McNairy, Ben Mendelsohn, James Gandolfini. "64" Metascore and I would easily go to "92". Based on the novel 'COGAN'S TRADE' by George V. Higgins. Watched 'HOT SUMMER NIGHTS' (Netflix). Set on Cape Cod in 1991 and concerns a couple of young guys who start dealing small amounts of weed and then grow the business to become a massive cannabis operation. I'll begin the film at home and finish at Planet Fitness. 1135am: The PC is 'Off' and preparing for a visit to Plane...
