Sa 12/15/18

Up 830am; I guess I was tired! Sunny, breezy, to upper 40's.


Watched 'DRESSED TO KILL' (Amazon Prime). Another film by Brian DePalma and the precision camera work and shrewd story line make this an undeniable Thriller Classic; Michael Caine/ Angie Dickinson/ Nancy Allen.

Then THE SECRET WORLD OF LEWIS CARROLL (Amazon Prime). Lewis Carroll, a 19th century math professor at Christ Church,Oxford, is attracted to three young sisters that live on his courtyard- Alice Little being his favorite. Was Carroll a pedophile or was he just a bachelor who had many friends that were children? The documentary addresses the larger issue which is can we judge historical figures by 21st century social values and standards? Why was Carroll banished from contact with the Little family?

110pm- will complete ANATOMY OF A MIRACLE and then hit the 'Y'. Will return the shirts to Walmart after the workout.
Only a few pages till the end, and on the machines at the 'Y' by 2pm.
45" Walk (Reality TV all day). 45" Recumbent Bike. 45" Cross. 45" Bike. 30" Cross.
To Walmart to return the thermal shirts, and couldn't find anything in the proper size. But, got two nice sweatshirts that were a buck fifty cheaper. I was astounded that I was the only person in the whole 'Customer Service' area- didn't take but a couple of minutes to make the exchange. I expected to spend at least a half hour waiting in the line(s).

Home to soak and start the 'other' book by Harper Lee, 'GO SET A WATCHMAN', and listen to TRICKY.

The next episode of  HOUSE OF CARDS, then a 'LOCKUP RAW'.

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...
