Tu 3/19/19

Up 6am; mostly sunny and to low fifties.

Listened to 'Armchair Expert'- Dax Sheppard and Kristen Bell

Watched Netflix disc, 'BOY ERASED'  One of the best films I've seen in a long while, and that's saying something! 36 states still allow 'conversion therapy' and they have 'treated' over 700,000 people; with Lucas Hedges/ Russell Crowe/ Nicole Kidman/ dir. and lead actor- Joel Edgerton/ and, of all people, FLEA!!

Then, 'BLACK NOVEMBER' (Amazon Prime) Mickey Rourke/ Kim Basinger/ Anne Heche    Nigeria is one of the world's largest oil producing countries, yet the average citizen lives on only two dollars a day. The film (based on actual events) concerns the struggle between the corrupt government, a greedy oil company, and the people of the Niger Delta community.

1pm- to Wabash PO and Planet Fitness. After workout I'll visit County Market at Fairhills.

45" Walk (UNSOLVED- Biggie/ Tupac). 45" Recumbent Bike (read 'THE DOGS OF RIGA'- Kurt Wallander). 45" Cross (UNSOLVED). 30" Walk (GIRLS). 30" Cross (YouTube video about Conversion Therapy).

$56- County Market/ Fairhills

In the mail there was a letter from a federal insurance company asking me to make a claim on Ken Sr.'s policy, but they didn't say whether he had a policy.....If he didn't, why were they contacting me? This is how Joe will earn his 'One Percent'.

Home to a cup of instant downstairs with Reggae Bands Do The Dead.

In the tub with a compilation tape and more Nordic Noir.

'THE INFORMERS' (Amazon Prime) Billy Bob Thornton/ and Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke together today in another movie! Screenplay by Bret Easton Ellis...Snapshot of the decadents of Los Angeles in the early 1980's with a spot-on soundtrack.

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...

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).
