Sa 3/6/21

 Sa 3/6/21

940am. 510pm. 940pm. 

Up 805am: Mostly sunny with temps to mid 50's.

Watched 'SENTINELLE' (Netflix).   "Klara who is thirty-three years old. She is an interpreter in the French Army. After experiencing the horrors of war in Syria, she was transferred to Nice as part of Operation Sentinel." A better film might have been to concentrate on the colossal risk of having an opioid addict in a deployed anti-terrorist commando group.  A couple of nasty, over-the-top, demonstrations of the art of fisticuffs. 

There really is an 'Operation Sentinelle'. It's a French military operation with 10,000 soldiers and 4,700 police and is part of an ongoing state of emergency in France due to continued terror threats and attacks. Filmed in Belgium, Morocco, and Nice, Alpes-Maritimes, France.

Then I began 'THE SOURCE FAMILY' (Amazon Prime).

1230pm: ON THE TREADMILL...4 1/4 Miles at 3.4 pace. Finished 'THE SOURCE FAMILY'. The world's strongest 12 year old and Judo champ gets into the health food business on Sunset Strip. Then he forms a love cult and takes 13 wives. Death by hang gliding accident.

525pm... PARKVIEW, WASH. PK SOUTH, WIGGINS, LELAND, WALNUT, NORTH SIDE THRU PARK, UP THE HILL, PARKVIEW, FAIRWAY, AND UP TO 940...1 HOUR AND 15 MINS... Belle and Sébastien, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Brainiac.

***I left the Friskies can out on the counter and 'The Budman' wolfed down over a half can while I was on the walk, however he is no worse for the wear. 

In the tub to begin 'LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR ' and listening to JOE HENDERSON, DAVID BOWIE 'Black Star'; 'The Next Day'. 

Two Netflix discs arrived in the mail; 'PASSENGER SIDE' and 'HOPE SPRINGS'. 'Passenger Side' for tonight. Two estranged brothers spend the day driving around contemporary Los Angeles sniping at each other and arguing about the meaning of life. One brother is losing his girlfriend to the other brother, but it doesn't make too much difference because neither brother seems to care that much...about anything- 'A Whole Lotta Slacker Philosophizing & Posturing', although I still liked the film especially the location shots of early 2000's LA; with Adam Scott and Joel Bissonnette- both are from prime time television series. The title is from the song, 'Passenger Side' by Wilco on their album, 'AM'.

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...

We 4/23/25- Gummy 645am {I took 1/4 of a 200 mg of 'DIET SMOKE' gummy: 50 mg total}. 650am (1-LB: Cookie Bread). 910am (1/2-LB: Cookie Bread).  1220pm (1-LB: Panama Punch). 535pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker). 815pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker).  Up 545am: A mix of suny & clouds with temps to about 80. 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...
