 Fr 11/6/20

Up 7am: Another Indian Summer day with plenty of sun and temps to low 70's.

The presidential race is still at 264 for Biden and 214 for Trump. Trump is blasting the race as rigged and fraught with illegal votes. All of these claims are completely without proof. Although the mail-in ballots that elected Republicans to the House of Representatives were all OK, the mail-in votes for Biden were all illegal. Trump is now and always was a national embarrassment.

Watched 'KISS KISS BANG BANG' (Hoopla). I had forgotten how funny and smart this movie was. A clever spoof on the Hard Boiled Detective Genre that never hesitates to 'break the fourth wall' and also skewers the institution of acting itself; with Robert Downey Jr., Val Kilmer, and Michelle Monaghan. The film won 5 international awards and was nominated for 16.

Then the next episode of 'CARMEL- Who Killed Maria Marta' (Netflix). Many theories evolve as to how the victim sustained numerous bullet holes in the head during a drowning accident and various family persons of interest emerge. This episode ends with a link to a major drug cartel.

1210pm: An early walk and I'll finish the rest of the workout on the treadmill with a podcast later this afternoon...Parkview, Wash.Pk. south side, Wiggins to Leland, and then east on Leland to Walnut, northside of the park to the 'duck walk across the pond', and up the hill, Greenview, Fairway and up to 940...ONE HOUR AND THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES...Mp3...HOLE, IAN HUNTER. And then, another film.

Watched 'GONZO' (Amazon Prime). I had seen this one before but well worth a second look. One of America's finest authors and certainly a political guru for America's counterculture of the sixties and seventies. Directed by Alex Gibney.

Then 3 MILES ON TREADMILL and watched LEAH REMINI on THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE. 

In the tub with BETWEEN TWO RIVERS and listening to TANGERINE DREAM, '1989'~ TAYLOR SWIFT.

I watched 'IN THE VALLEY OF VIOLENCE' (Netflix). A cowboy drifter arrives at a desolate Old West town and after an altercation in at the saloon, the local police throw him over a cliff after killing his dog. He survives and executes his revenge (mostly for his dog); with Ethan Hawke, Taissa Farmiga, James Ransone, and John Travolta. Filmed at Cerro Pelon Ranch which is a movie production company and ranch estate near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Produced by Blumhouse Productions- mostly known for their horror films. 

And for some unfathomable reason I watched an entire  'GETTING DOUG WITH HIGH- Brian Posehn' (Amazon Prime).

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).
