Fr 4/24/2020: County Market-39

Fr 4/24/2020- County Market

Up 610 am for the dawn trip to County Market. In the store by 7 am and even less people in the store than the last visit: $123.00- more expensive rice, an eight dollar can of decaffeinated coffee, and enough can goods and frozen vegetables to last three weeks.

Put an unknown CD by Youssou N' Dour on Google Play and the mp3 player.

Watched the last hour and a half of '2001: A Space Odyssey'.  It's very much an Art Film and I forgot how little dialog is in the film- no conversations until almost 25". Monolith with pre-cavemen, Monolith on Moon gives off signal toward Jupiter, Mission to Jupiter to determine signal to Jupiter....Goes through a supernova...18th century bedroom. older, old man, fetus...
***There were nearly a dozen reviews at IMDB- Metacritic and they were all '100' except for one...The New York Times gave it a 60, and said said it was " somewhere between hypnotic and immensely boring".

1125 am: On the walk early because it's to begin raining early afternoon and to continue all day. Down Westview to the golf course path and over to Edwards east thru the capitol complex and up to the PO on Monroe. South on 5th to Canedy west and over the tracks and by The Park Towers and down the south side of the panhandle and through the park on the southside. Up Parkview and down to 940. SLIGHTLY OVER TWO HOURS....no rain until 4pm and then periods of heavy showers; Mp3 player DIZZY GILLESPIE AND CHARLIE PARKER/ HINDU LOVE GODS/ HOT CHIP/ LED ZEP.

On the couch for several hours listening to ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO and ALEX CHILTON. 630 pm in the tub with ROSS THOMAS and AT THE DRIVE-IN and ATOMIC ROOSTER.

Watched Netflix disc, 'THE DEATH AND LIFE OF JOHN F. DONOVAN. A film about an exchange of letters between a ten year old boy and a gay filmstar....Watched the first hour and the rest tomorrow morning...

***Turned into a SIX BEER NIGHT....First time since 'THE CLAMP-DOWN'...Why?

Watched a 30" YouTube video about a husband and wife who opened a record store ....Life, Love, Vinyl, Beards...

AUTOPSY: THE LAST HOURS OF BRITTANY MURPHY (Amazon Prime). Her husband dies the same way several months later but the film doesn't say how the two are connected.

Then the first episode of Season I , 'CELEBRITY FOOD CHALLENGE' (Amazon Prime).
