Fr 6/5/20

Up 620 am: Overcast with a slight chance of rain, humid, to about 90.

*** 710 am:To County Market/Fairhills; $89. Home to unload the groceries and then off to the Pot Shop to pick up the order that I submitted at 7 am; 1/8 of flower and some Pot Candy; $110.

945 am: Watched Netflix disc, 'THE STONING OF SORAYA M'. In a small village in 70's Iran a woman is stoned to death for violating Sharia Law. However, her husband falsely accused her of adultery because he wanted a divorce and to be free to marry a fourteen year old. Graphic violence: Her arms are tied behind her back and she is forced to kneel, buried up to her waist, and then the stoning begins. 

Then watched episode 1 of, 'UPLOAD' (Amazon Prime).  A SciFi comedy about a future society where you can opt to 'upload into Heaven' instead of death. This afterlife has been programmed to simulate living at an upscale mountain resort...for eternity. This seems like it will be a clever series and I'm in.  

 130 pm: Will add 'SEARCHING FOR THE SOUND' to the blog and then read for a while. Will walk later to mail the Netflix disc.  

425 pm: on the walk. Parkview to Wash. Pk. Wiggins south to Outer Park. Along MacArthur to Wabash and dropped the Netflix disc. Straight north Chatham, Parkview, Greenview and up to 949. TWO HOURS AND TEN MINUTES. 

In the tub with Clifford Simak. 'Project Pope'. Listen to AT THE DRIVE-IN and THE ATLANTA RHYTHM SECTION. 

Watched the Netflix disc, 'THE ONION MOVIE'.  First time I have used the downstairs PC video player since I had the 'update' problems, but it worked flawlessly. The movie was funny and irreverent, just what I was expecting.

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...

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...

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...
