Fr 4/20/18

Up 745am; reading too late last night. Bright, sunny, to low 60's. The plan is to get a grip on the pine cones and sour gum balls later.

Wrote up DEADWOOD for the blog.
Then watched THE ARMY OF ONE (Nicolas Cage/ Russell Brand, Xfinity). 'An Idiot Abroad Saga' based on a real person, Gary Faulkner. A nut-job from Colorado is told by God (Russell Brand) that he must go to Pakistan, locate Osama bin Laden, and take him out. Weak premise, but Cage's comedic performance keeps things rolling along. 

1145am- Will attempt to create a play list in Itunes, then transfer this to Google Play, then the lawn.
I lost everything on the Ipod, and I think that what is now on the laptop is what I have in Google Play. It seems that I didn't transfer music to the cloud, but everything at Google Play has replaced my Itunes library. I'm not that upset because I don't mind shoveling the stuff on to Google Play.

I finished with the lawn about 315pm. Some of this time was spent in the back room with the laptop. Lawn looks good and it won't be too long before it will need trimming.

4pm on the machines at Fitclub. 45" Octane (Best of Elvis). 45" Recumbent Bike (Le Chalet; not feeling this one- gotta move on). 45" Cross (HOMELAND- Season 7, #1; this is more like it!. 30" Cross (EASTBOUND & DOWN). Legs/ Chest/ Biceps. 5" Whirlpool.
Home to read more of YOUNG JANE YOUNG and listen to 'Gray Fold' (Dead); 45".
The next episode of BOSCH (Amazon Prime). Put four more records on Google Play (with the artwork- I've got this down!).

We 8/15/18

We 8/15/18 Up 820am; overcast, clammy, and threatening. Rain predicted all day and tomorrow- none so far; 915am. (All day and barely a sprinkle- it was happening all around us, but nothing here) Watched  'SUSPECT ZERO' (Amazon Prime) Aaron Eckhart/ Ben Kingsley/ Carrie Anne Moss.  Eckhart plays a disgraced FBI agent who is being fed information by a serial killer. Seems to be Ben Kingsley, but he's not the killer, he's an ex-agent who can do 'remote viewing'. Not bad, but close, however excellent and creative charcoal drawings as the 'hints' to Eckhart's character. Another episode of 'I'M DYING UP HERE', and then another 'GLOW'. 250PM- Drove to FitClub West, then after the workout to the County Market on south sixth for beer and some groceries- and a dependable can opener! (PS. This is a really clever design. '3-in-one design'; church key/ tuna opener/ pop top) 45" The Best Octane. 45" Recumbent Bike (b...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
