Fr 6/15/18

Up 6am; sunny, low 70's early, but temps to hit mid 90's later. Severe Heat Warning begins this afternoon and extends through the weekend. 

Watched low-budget film on Amazon Prime, 'GIRL LOST'. How mom (and dire circumstances) initiate 15-year old Shara into the sex trade; winner of numerous Independent film awards, and well worth a look. 
Questionable Fact, yet possibly true: "The average age of girls who begin working in the sex industry is 12-14 years old".

Then, 'BOMBSHELL: THE HEDY LAMARR STORY (Netflix). The point of the film was to grant Hedy the recognition for her idea that she and a musical composer came up with during WWII- Randomly changing the frequency signal from a radio base to a live torpedo to avoid jamming by the enemy. She had the patent with the US Navy, but never received a nickel. This idea is worth 30 Billion in today's market. 

Around noon, downstairs to read; 'A LONG WAY DOWN'/'The Cramps'.

Biked to FitClub in the blistering heat; on the machines by 130pm. Both Octanes in use and the fucking 'jobless/ young guy' took one of them after I was on the treadmill walking for 35". I waited and walked until 38" until the other fool/ young girl got off. She had to have been on longer than 40"....So 38" Walk. 45" Cross. 45" Bike (LUCK). 45" Cross (2 full episodes of LUCK). Legs/ Chest/ Biceps. 37" Walk (finished the interview with Mark Duplass and began an interview with Titus Welliver).
Home for three beers in the tub/ Hornby/ 'RANCID'.

Will begin a Netflix film, 'CREEP'- a Mark Duplass film. It's pretty much 'Mark' as a very creepy, passive aggressive nerd, and the last thirty minutes is for tomorrow morning.

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

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...
