Election still not resolved: Biden 264 and Trump 214. 270 is needed to win. If Biden pulls it out, 'Moscow Mitch' is back in control of the senate and will nix every bill pushed by President Biden. This was not the 'Blue Wave' that was expected.
Mostly sunny with temps to low 70's.
***I gave Buddy his dry food and while he was eating, I 'spiked' a portion of Frisky with his medicine. He ate it all without any problems. He seems his normal self.
Watched 'CALM AT SEA' (Kanopy). A kind of morality play set in France during the Nazi occupation. A German officer was shot in the streets and Berlin demands that fifty imprisoned French Communists are to be executed as reprisal. At the time only 1,000 German officers were trying to rule France and this act just might inflame the resistance movement and the entire political stability of the German occupation. "One murder leads to reprisals, and the reprisals lead to more murders". Deeply moving and the fact that young actors played key parts really added to the realistic feel of the film.
Then the next episode of 'UNSOLVED MYSTERIES- A Death in Oslo' (Netflix). In the summer of 1996 a young woman checked into a luxury hotel in Oslo. Three days later her body is discovered and it appears that she shot herself in the head, but questions arise. There was no personal identification in the room and all tags had been removed from her clothing. Authorities still don't know who she was and a few believe she might have been an undercover agent who was executed.
Then watched the last part of David Letterman's interview with Dave Chappelle (Netflix). Police violence disproportionately targets the black community and this negatively affects the entire nation. The civil unrest in many parts of the country is not that people are just learning about this, but that they and their families have already been deeply damaged by these violent policies. Stop the police violence (or at the very least, admit that it is happening and address it!) and the violent protests will end. Another thoughtful interview.
And the next 'UNSOLVED MYSTERIES- Tsunami Spirits' (Netflix). The episode was about the 9.0 earthquake and tsunami that struck northern Japan on Friday, March 11th 2011. A 7.0 earthquake is devastating, but a 9.0 earthquake is 1,089 times more powerful than a 7.0. Supposedly ghosts began appearing after the tragedy and this was the least interesting of all of the 'UNSOLVED MYSTERIES'.
I read for a while and then took an afternoon walk.
325pm...Fairway, Wash Pk. North side, South on Lincoln and west on Outer Park and north to Wash. Pk. on Wiggins, west thru park on north side, up the hill, Parkview and down to 940. A beautiful twilight evening. JUST OVER 2 HOURS... Mp3... BYRDS, ALLMAN BROTHERS, SUPERCHUNK.
Listening to Trump lie about him winning the election. Christ this is unnerving! No proof of illegal voting except in his mind.
In the tub with 'BETWEEN 2 RVERS' and listening to TADDY PORTER, SWANS.
Watched the first episode of 'CARMEL: WHO KILLED MARIA MARTA?' (Netflix). 2002- Buenos Aries, Argentina: A woman from a prominent family is found dead and it is believed to be an accidental drowning in the bathtub. When the body is exhumed five bullet holes are found in her skull.
And then watched another episode of 'LEAH REMINI: SCIENTOLOGY AND THE AFTERMATH' (Netflix).
