Th 7/11/19

Up 710am; Sunny and temps to very low 80's. Windows open!

Watched 'STUCK' (Hoopla) Independent comedy about a slacker/ stoner woman who is sentenced to 30 days house arrest in the home of her ex-boyfriend and his fiancee. Joel McHale is the only well known actor, but not a bad ensemble cast. In real life, the woman who plays the lead, 'Darby', is married to 'Chloe', who plays her ex-boyfriend's fiancee.

Then watched, 'WHITE RABBIT' (Amazon Prime) This film features Vivian Bang who had a very small role in 'STUCK'. In this one she is the star and plays, Sophia, a Korean American performance artist who does a 'show' in public places; parks, supermarkets, or on the street. She explores how the media and society in general deal with Race, Gender, and the specific problem of existing both as a Korean and an American. Vivian Bang could be the next big thing!

Found an excellent punk rocker and added some of her albums to Amazon Prime Music; Lizzy Mercier Descioux. Some of her music was used in 'WHITE RABBIT'.

1pm: PC 'Off' reading 'EYE IN THE SKY'; will bike to workout later. The weather is perfect.

3pm: Biked to LA Fitness. 45" Walk (GOOD OMENS). 45" Recumbent Bike (read 'EYE IN THE SKY'/ watched Trump on 'citizenship question census dodge') 45" Cross (Finished 'GOOD OMENS' and began 'TOO OLD TO DIE YOUNG'- very odd!). 30" Walk and 30" Cross ('TOO OLD....).

Home to soak and listen to LIVE LOS LOBOS/ and THE LOS LONELY BOYS), and more 'EYE IN THE SKY'.

'DEEP UNDERCOVER' 22" segment series 'Crime'/(Netflix). Cheap television programming and should be known as, 'America Eats Its' Young'.

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...

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...
