We 7/11/18

Up 615am; upper sixties early, so I opened the house- to 90 and sunny.

Wrote up 'PRIVILGED LIVES' Edward Stewart for the blog and then pitched it in the trash. Too bad that this Cardozo novel is the only one on Amazon for a penny plus postage.

'BEHIND THE CANDELABRA' (Amazon Prime; an HBO film) Completely unsettling to see Michael Douglas and Matt Damon as lovers. Scott Thorson's life was a little different than portrayed in the film; he was a witness in the Wonderland Murders, served time in prison for various offences, and was gunned down and nearly died.

Began the first episode of 'SECRET CITY' (Netflix).

1245pm Closed up and AC on 82; on the bike to the 'Y'.
"Boring Jim" was sitting in the lobby of the 'Y' and I had to talk to him for almost 20" before I could workout. He told me that he got his computer problems solved at the place near Amos and Jefferson. This guy gave him CCleaner and Malwarebytes- the same programs that I put on his computer many years ago, but he had some self-styled genius remove. I showed him how to link to Amazon Music- he subscribes to Prime but didn't know that he can also access a great music sight, and I mentioned 'Honey' on Amazon. He took notes, and I wouldn't be surprised if I got a...'please call me' from him....
45" Cross. 45" Walk. 45" Recumbent Bike. 45" Cross. 30" Bike (BRAVO- Wives of NYC all afternoon).
Home to soak and listen to BIG COUNTRY/ 'Hatful of Hollows- THE SMITHS).
Began watching an English bio on Amazon about Scottish serial killer, Peter Tobin, but started uploading a bunch of albums to Amazon Music and lost the thread- not that interesting. 
Began the first episode of Amazon Prime, 'VEGAS'....this was a show that Jim said he liked- I'll give it a shot, starring Dennis Quaid. Flipped around and will save this for another time...wiped out.

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...

Finished 'SIGNS' (Netflix). Clearly the drama hasn't ended, and I hope there will be infinite new seasons. {No such luck. I couldn't find anything about a third season}. This was the quote at the end of the series: "I am the Lord who frustrates the omens of diviners and makes a mockery of magicians, who turns back the wise and turns their knowledge into folly"...Book of Isaiah. ***Phone had to be restarted because I 'was not connected to a network'.  ***925am: 'Diet Smoke' gummy order arrived on the front porch via FedEx; Watermelon/ Acapulco Gold Watched 'HOW TO HAVE SEX' (Netflix). Three high school age (?) girls take a summer holida...
