Tu 11/19/19

Up 635am: Overcast to upper 40's.

Watched 'TWICE BORN' (Amazon Prime) A loony love story set against the backdrop of war-torn Sarajevo.
A journalist and a photographer cannot have a child. They agree to use a surrogate, and as the man and woman begin to make love, soldiers attack the house and the woman is raped. The photographer hides, and after the child is born, the journalist flees to Italy with the baby and raises him as her son. The photographer dies (probably a suicide). All of this is revealed in the last twenty minutes, and the film is kind of a flashback as the woman comes back to Sarajevo with the teenage boy. Crazy dialog and implausible situations, but (if you don't think too hard) it's worth a look.

Then, '16 BLOCKS' (Netflix) A dissolute cop must take a witness 16 blocks in lower Manhattan to court to testify against the police, but the crooked cops come gunning for them both; with Mos Def and Bruce Willis- Surprisingly good.

Called and left word at Mitch's Landscaping for an estimate for the Fall clean-up. Then wrote a short 'Weekly Wrap'.

120pm: To County Market/ Fairhills for $56 worth of groceries. The to Planet Fitness by 145pm.

45" Walk (YouTube- True Crime). 45" Recumbent Bike (Read 'WHISKEY...' listened to OTIS REDDING & CARLA THOMAS). 45" Cross (Impeachment Hearings). 30" Walk (YouTube- True Crime). 30" Cross (Impeachment Hearings).

Mitch called during the workout and is interested in doing the clean-up. He'll call back with an estimate and I told him to take his time. More leaves will probably fall.

Home to put away the food and then in the tub with PAUL MCCARTNEY and PAVEMENT; finished the Western Adventures of 'Little Pony'/ Jess Harney/ Samuel Spartan/ Ms. Rowhine.

The next 'BREAKING BAD' Season 3 (Netflix), then a bunch of YouTube stuff.

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).
