 Fr 2/12/21

835am.930pm.

Up 720am: Overcast, frigid and temps only in the low teens with flurries. And the real cold weather begins tomorrow with highs only in the single digits. 

Paid the cards and watched 'RESISTANCE' (Xfinity). Heartfelt, but a bit heavy on the melodrama. I had never heard of Marcel Marceau's exploits with orphan children and his work with the French Resistance; Jesse Eisenberg as Marceau and an international cast.

Watched the next episode of 'FLACK' (Amazon Prime).

1215 pm: ON THE TREADMILL...4 Miles and finished TIM DILLON on 'Ginger Beard'- Andrew Santino and began CHRIS ROCK on WTF.

***While I was on the treadmill I got a call from Memorial asking if I would like to arrange for a Covid shot. I'm on for Monday, 2/15 at 1215 am at Memorial Urgent Care across from the Cozy Dog on So. 6th. Booster shot the same place and time on March 8th. The best call I've received in ages.

I read until 530 pm. and finished 'FEAR OF FLYING' in the living room.

ON THE TREADMILL... 2 Miles and watched 'THE FBI FILES' ~ Alaskan serial killer kidnaps women,  rapes,  stalks, and murders them in the wilderness. 

In the tub and began 'THE WRONG SIDE OF GOODBYE' ~ Michael Connelly and listening to HOT TUNA, KENNY BURRELL. 

Watched episode #1 'CRIME SCENE: The Vanishing At The Cecil Hotel' (Netflix). Elisa Lam, a young Canadian tourist disappears from the Cecil Hotel which is located in 'the most dangerous area in the United States'- Skid Row of downtown Los Angeles. 

Then I watched the first 50" of  'MICHAEL JACKSON: Searching For Neverland' (Xfinity-Lifetime Movie Club), The final period of Michael Jackson's life as he tries to have a 'normal life' with his three children from the perspective of his head of security. Jackson was acquitted of all sex related crimes with kids and I think most people aren't aware of this fact. I know that I wasn't.

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...
