Up 815am: Gray drizzle early, then cloudy and raw with temps dropping to the low 40's by late this afternoon.

Watched the interview with Michael Haneke, the director of 'CACHE' on the Bonus Features. Will watch the YouTube material after the next film.

Watched Netflix disc 'CLIMAX'. At the start of the film over three minutes of end credits are shown and I'm sure I've not been the only one who thought that I had started with the final chapter. THE SET-UP: At a party for a dance troupe the sangria is spiked with LSD. At first it's fun with unbelievable synchronized dance sequences and then it turns into Hell. CineVue says: "The film is freaky, experimental, sometimes hilarious and unnervingly intense". But here's what VARIETY says: "But then it sinks in that you’re watching “Fame” directed by the Marquis de Sade with a Steadicam".

1-120pm: Quick walk to the box at Walgreens to mail the discs. Out Fairway and back Westview. First time in a winter coat and watch cap.  few hits, then watched 'THE AMISH SHUNNED' (Amazon Prime). A look into the Amish Culture, they never refer to it as a religion, and a profile of few that have left the fold, and one young woman who comes back. I was surprised that many leave and come back multiple times. 

415pm: FOUR AND A HALF MILES on the treadmill watching THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE; Bill Burr/ Matthew McConaughey.

In the tub with THE WHOLE MAN~ John Brunner and listening to RAY WYLIE HUBBARD, RED MEAT (excellent C&W in the Buck Owens tradition... not to be confused with RED RED MEAT), ROBERT CRAY. 

Watched two episodes of Season 1, 'UNSOLVED MYSTERIES- (Berkshires UFO/ Missing Witness) (Netflix). UFO sighting in rural Massachusetts, September 1, 1969,  and the next episode is about a woman who kills her live-in boyfriend and has one of her six daughters help dispose of the body. When the daughter comes clean to authorities, mom kills her too. But, legally nothing can be done.
