Fr 10/25/19

Up 711am: Cloudy- to mid 50's.

Watched, 'LOVE AND A .45' (Amazon Prime) Obviously an homage to Tarantino, but still worth a look in a cartoonish way. Two star crossed-lovers from rural Texas get caught up in a series of  murders and must flee to the Mexican border; with Gill Bellows, Renee Zellweger, Peter Fonda, and music by Tom Verlaine.

Then watched, 'GREEN ROOM' (Netflix) A pleasant surprise. 'Teen Scream Formula' about a punk band who play a Nazi nightclub, stumble upon a murder, and get imprisoned in the room that entertainers wait to perform, hence the title; with Anton Yelchin, Alia Shawkat, and Imogen Poots.

130pm: To the motor vehicles office on Pine to renew the license. I couldn't just do it with the clerk, but I had to wait. My number was 61, and they were on 19. I just walked out, and I'll send the damn thing in. I thought that it would make it easier and cheaper.

Then to the boot store at Cook and Dirksen. I got a pair of $150 boots for $75. Some of the more exotic leather boots went for seven or eight hundred bucks.

On the machines at FitClub South by 245pm. 45" Precor (WTF- Robert Trujillo and Flea). 45" Recumbent Bike (WTF). 45" Cross (TV all workout). 30" Walk. 30" Cross.

Home to read on the couch for about a half hour and brought the new boom box upstairs listening to Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels.

Then in the tub for more 'CAMINO ISLAND' and RUSH/ ALBERT COLLINS.

The next episode of 'BREAKING BAD' (Netflix), then a YouTube documentary about the Canadian band, RUSH. Little of the history or background of the group, only a 'puff piece'.

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...
