The Cheese Stands Alone

 Su 11/1/26- Time Change! 720am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 725am (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 1230pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 430pm (GB: 4/ Hammerhead). 530pm (GB: 4/ Red Congolese). 825pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). I didn't realize the time change until I opened the PC. We lost an hour last night and that happened on Halloween Night? I don't remember that ever happening because it would be too easy to remember that the time changes on All Saints Day.  Up 650am: {I got up at 550am- new time}. Cloudy with temps to mid 60's. Weekly Cleaning Watched 'GAJAB RAAT' (Netflix). It's an Indian 'Police/ Dramedy/ Thriller' about a crooked detective who is investigating the death of a young prostitute. The smarmy detective is affable to a fault, but really he's holding out for the biggest bribe he can get.  Many police agencies try to take his case because they are all in on a massive coverup, but he insists that he is the Investigating Off...

 Sa 10/31/26- Mowed & Raked/  Switched Pharmacy To Schnucks.  1010am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 1015am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 205pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 545pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 830pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 730am: Mostly cloudy with temps to mid 60's. 8am- 945am: I raked up the pine needles from the bottom third of the back lawn and dumped them under the tulip tree. If anyone inquires, this is my 'mulch' pile. I mowed the back lawn (somewhat needed it) and most of the front. The front was mainly to swirl a few of the leaves around and I didn't touch the lawn next door.    Watched 'THE IDES OF MARCH' (Netflix). A behind the scenes look at the skullduggery and underhanded behavior employed to elect a liberal Democrat in an Ohio primary election. The film is very cynical and deeply distrustful of the democratic process. Ex: A GOLDEN SUGGESTION: "Mandatory two years of government service after high school and in ...

 Fr 10/30/26 720am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 740am (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 1005am (4-B: Hammerhead). 1250pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 225pm (4-B: Hammerhead). 530pm (GB: a mix of Red & Hammerhead). 825pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 645am: Drizzle & sprinkles all day and cooler with temps only to upper 60's. Watched 'COLLISION COURSE' (Netflix). It's a well crafted Spanish film that's designed to confuse or confound. A professional gang's smash & grab goes awry when the diamonds they expected to find are not in the proper safety deposit box. During the getaway from the bank, one of the robbers is killed when their vehicle is rammed by a guy who ran a stop sign. The movie is structured so that we see a different reality as the storyline recounts each member of the crew dying in that fatal accident.  The film is purposely puzzling, but kind of satisfying. The banker (who was their man on the inside) got away with the jewels...

 Th 10/29/26 745am {VIIA- one gummy 'BLUE MIND BLOOM': 10 mg Amanita Mushroom, 35 mg THC....trying for the 1st time}. 750am (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 1055am (4-B: Hammerhead). 1235pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 535pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 830pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 7am: Partly cloudy with temps to mid 70's.  Watched 'IKKA' (Netflix). "Corny & Over-Acted". A man from a wealthy and politically powerful family is accused of rape and murder. Even though the man is clearly guilty, his crack defense lawyer must get him off or his pre-teen daughter dies.  The defendant is the girl's natural father and she needs a bone marrow transplant or she dies of leukemia. This legal thriller was so unlikely that it pushed the boundaries of even Bollywood melodrama. A character is offered a job paying $1.2 million Indian rupees per annum and that is approximately $12,600 usd. 1045am: The single gummy was a pleasant & well modulated blast and I wonder if it was the...

 We 10/28/26 720am (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 940am {1/4 Extreme Chill 'Wedding Cake' 150 mg: 37 mg total}. 1pm(GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 240pm (5-B: Hammerhead). 415pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead). 530pm (GB: 5/ Red Congolese). 825pm (GB: 5/ Hammerhead).  Up 630am: {set alarm for phone meeting at 915am}. Plenty of sunshine and temps to upper 70's.  Watched 'BLACKOUT' (Netflix). A 'secret agent' finds himself in a hospital on the US/Mexico border and he doesn't remember anything. A Mexican cartel, the DEA, and the CIA attack the hospital to get the missing $20,000,000 and 'the briefcase that contains the names of all the bad guys in the world'. This might have looked OK in the writer's room, but the final product was no better than a student film. Unconvincing fight scenes and lots of running down corridors while miraculously dodging machine gun fire; with Josh Duhamel, Abbie Cornish, Nick Nolte (he was 81 years old when the film was shot and he looked every s...

 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...
