Tu 7/24/18

Up 740am; another beautiful summer day- 80's and plenty of sun.

Watched 'ENEMIES' (Netflix) Another fine, yet perplexing 'doppelganger' film. A mild-mannered history professor and a third-rate movie actor might be identical?  Maybe it's about living in a dictatorship without being aware of it- the 'web' is invisible. I loved it!

Then, Two episodes of 'QUARRY' (Xfinity) They're an hour a pop, but I can't control myself. I've said it before, but this is my fave series; great writing,  spot-on period costumes, exacting 70's set design, and a terrific Blues- infused Stax/Volt  soundtrack!

2pm on the bike to Planet Fitness. Want to skim at least half of 'THE FLOATING WORLD' to prepare for tomorrow's meeting...did it!
45" Walk (# 1 Record- 'Big Star'). 45" Recumbent Bike (THE FLOATING WORLD/ Henry Threadgill- Amazon Music). 45" Cross (HOMELAND). 45" Bike (read). 30" Cross (HOMELAND).
Home to soak/ listen to Bob Mould/ more 'Floating'.
Watched the last two episodes of ,'ENLIGHTENED' (Amazon Prime); Can't wait to see the next season. 
(Amazon Prime) 'FRANK ZAPPA- THE FREAK OUT LIST'. Zappa and his music are presented in a 'classical composer' context. A clear-case of an artist who consciously chose a 'look' that sabotaged his true work. Had Zappa adopted a less weird persona, he would have been treated differently. If you act the clown, a large portion of the audience will see you as a joke.
