We 2/5/2020

Up 730am: Cloudy with snow beginning late this morning. A few inches are predicted today and maybe a couple of inches tonight before it ends late tomorrow morning.

Watched 'CLOSE ENEMIES' (Netflix). A very fine French police procedural...."Driss and Manuel are two childhood friends who end up taking opposite paths: Manuel chose to embrace the thug life, while Driss becomes a cop. When Manuel's biggest deal goes terribly wrong, the two men meet again and come to realize they both need each other to survive in their worlds." Subplot: Muslims from Algeria trying to 'blend' in a racist France.

Snow beginning right at 11am as predicted.

Watched another two episodes of 'TED BUNDY: FALLING FOR A KILLER' (Amazon Prime). Bundy heads to Utah and Colorado and continues his killing spree. Elizabeth Kendall is conflicted and can't rectify the Ted she knew with his alleged crimes. Then he escapes Twice! from authorities in Colorado. This is a very fine documentary!

130pm: To Planet Fitness

45" Walk (Interview with Peter Townsend at The New York Public Library: 1'45"). 45" Recumbent Bike (Read,'THE ESCAPE' and listened to GOATSNAKE and THE MELVINS). 45" Cross (TOWNSEND). 30" Walk (TOWNSEND and then ROGER DALTREY interviewed by Judd Apatow). 30" Cross (DALTRY).

Home to shovel off the drive and walk. Maybe slightly more than two inches: A ten minute workout. Then downstairs to read more Baldacci and listen to DELROY WILSON and MAZZY STARR. Then in the tub with more Espionage Adventure and more GOATSNAKE and The Best of TODD RUNDGREN.

Then 'THE IRISHMAN: IN CONVERSATION (23"). Set in a restaurant booth, the three leads, DeNiro, Pesci, Pacino, and Scorsese discuss the making of 'THE IRISHMAN'. Martin sees the 'CGI Anti- Aging Special Effects' as 'makeup', but he was aware that the 'young' actors had to act more spry. A very engaging twenty- three minutes.

Then an episode of , 'I AM A KILLER' (Netflix).

"On 01/25/1998, in San Antonio, Texas Little and co-defendant, Jose Zavalas, kidnapped a 22-year old Hispanic male and fatally shot him with a 25-caliber pistol during the commission of a robbery." It appeared to me that Little was just a 'wanna-be gangster' and he let things get out of hand and brutally executed another young man for no reason.

*****Interruption with the fucking, 'PATCH TUESDAY'. I knew something was operating behind the scenes, and then the PC froze.....I changed the battery in the mouse, but I'm not sure that it was needed. Fucking bullshit that every first Tuesday of the month you have to go through this!

Another 'KOMINSKY METHOD' (Netflix)

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...

Finished 'SIGNS' (Netflix). Clearly the drama hasn't ended, and I hope there will be infinite new seasons. {No such luck. I couldn't find anything about a third season}. 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). Three high school age (?) girls take a summer holida...
