 Sa 3/13/21

850am. 1130am. 920pm. 

Up 720am: Cloudy with temps to upper 50's. The next several days will be cloudy with the chance of rain.

***Set the Casio for Daylight Saving Time which begins at 2am.

Watched 'DOG WASHERS' (Netflix). A gritty and quirky, Art House film about small time drug thugs in Tulua, Columbia. The boss of a small crew is threatened by a rival and his demise brings about a violent and bloody downward spiral for all involved. An aging prostitute, who is only one of the peripheral characters, ends up with the bag full of money. I really liked this one a whole lot.

***I found a new streaming service called 'Plex TV' and watched 'ALL YOUR DEAD ONES directed by Carlos Moreno (DOG WASHERS). A poor farmer awakes on Sunday, election day, to find a pile of more than fifty corpses in his field. The police and the military do less than zero and just move the pile of bodies to a school soccer field. And there the entire cast and crew are featured in an aerial shot and they bow farewell to the audience. There must be a metaphor in there, yet for a low budget film Independent from Columbia it was very edgy; dir. Carlos Moreno.

145pm: ON THE TREADMILL...4 1/4 Miles at 3.4 pace. I watched more of HAMILTON MORRIS on Joe Rogan Experience.

Finished '23 SECONDS' and began 'THE WATERWORKS' by E. L. Doctorow.

545pm...ON THE TREADMILL... 2 Miles at 3.4 pace and watched 'HOW NEAL FEEL'.

In the tub with E. L. DOCTOROW and listening to THE ALLMAN BROS. ~ 'Brothers And Sisters', MOUNTAIN. 

Watched Netflix disc 'SONG OF LAHORE'. A group of musicians who play the traditional music of Pakistan get to play a concert in NYC with Wynton Marsalis and his orchestra. I wish there had been more about the Taliban's crackdown on musicians when Sharia Law was imposed on Lahore. The religious conservatives claimed that the Koran teaches that music is evil- a tough sell for the masses.

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). Three high school age (?) girls take a summer holida...
