Sa 8/3/19

Up 7am; partly cloudy with temps to the mid 80's.

Watched Netflix disc, 'A STAR IS BORN' Bradley Cooper directs and stars with Lady Gaga; also Sam Elliott, Andrew Dice Clay, and Dave Chappelle. From screenplays written in 1954 and 1976. The first written by Moss Hart and the 1976 version written by John Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion. This version (co-written by Bradley Cooper) might be a bit far-fetched and slightly overly romantic, but never veers into corniness. I liked it!

Then '4 LITTLE GIRLS' (Amazon Prime) Spike Lee's 1997 documentary about the 1963 bombing of 'The 16th Street Baptist Church' in Birmingham, Alabama that killed four young black girls. The film consists of interviews with the families of the girls and news footage of the civil-rights movement.

215pm: buckets of water for the front flowers. I caught the mailman and gave him the Netflix disc, so it's to LA Fitness today. 

On the machines at LA Fitness just before 3pm. Last night in the confusion, I forgot to load more videos so I had to go with what was on the phone. 45" Walk (TACOS). 45" Recumbent Bike. (Read 'THE HIT', listened to George Clinton). 45" Cross (THE ENTOURAGE). 30" Walk. (THE ENTOURAGE). 30" Cross. (THE ENTOURAGE- 3 episodes today).

Home to load the phone and read for a half hour in the living room. Then in the tub with THE PRETENDERS/ IGGY POP, and more 'THE HIT'.

Before the last beer I watered the front flower beds with the hose.

'HOW TO PREPARE FOR PRISON' (Amazon Prime)  A Canadian production about non-violent offenders. The show only followed them to the prison gates.
