  Sa 10/3/20

Up 730am: Cloudy with rain beginning late this morning and again late this afternoon- 50's; not much rain, more like mist.

Watched 'BLUE RUIN' (Netflix). I'm culling through 'My List' and trying to watch the ones that I really want to see and deleting the questionable choices. A 'Revenge Flick' where the protagonist is feckless and completely out of his depth. While living on the streets a man learns that the man convicted of murdering his parents has been released from prison. The killer committed a double murder because of his wife's infidelity. Killing triggers more killing and the film becomes a chronicle of two families at War. A fine 'Overlooked Film'.

***Cleaned the bong by boiling in water. Works fine now for a test drive...I should have done this months ago!

Then watched 'OLOTURE' (Netflix). 'Oloture' means endurance. A look at an international sex trafficking operation out of Lagos, Nigeria. A female reporter goes undercover, and in the end she is kidnapped by the traffickers; Low-down and primitive.

230pm: Will read for a while and then hit the treadmill. It looks like it will be misting/ raining for the next several hours.

Around 4pm I did 5 MILES ON THE TREADMILL at 3.1 pace. Watched an episode of 'FBI FILES' and then part of Joe Rogan's interview with MIKE TYSON. 

Then in the tub with 'METHUSELAH'S CHILDREN and listening to THE MINUTEMEN, FUGAZI. 

Began the Netflix disc 'NEVER LOOK AWAY' (Netflix; three hours and nine minutes). Only an hour and 17" into the film, but this review seems to capture what I'm feeling:

Variety-

"One of the subtler strengths of Never Look Away is the canny evocation of a war-weary, defeated population who did not experience communism as a revolution but a substitution. The insignia and the catechisms changed, but the underlying attitudes remained grotesquely similar in their callous prioritization of dogma over decency."

Then an episode of 'THE CHEF SHOW' (Netflix). The guys do Italian spaghetti and a dish with layers of artichokes.
