 Fr 4/16/21

920pm. 335pm.  945pm. 

Up 745am: Partly sunny with temps to about 60.

Wrote up 'BLACK SUNDAY' by Thomas Harris for the blog.

***The house up the street that used Acculevel is having their roof replaced today. I wonder if that's next for 940?  

Watched 'SKY HIGH' (Netflix). A young man from the slums of Madrid works as a garage mechanic by day, but at night he operates with a crew of high-end thieves and his ambitions are 'sky high'. Later in the story he marries the big boss's daughter more or less as a career move, yet he keeps his mistress and his wife doesn't mind. Spanish superstar, Luis Tosar has a minor role. Shot in Madrid, Ibiza, and Valencia, Spain.

1230pm: ON THE TREADMILL...5 MILES at 3.4 pace and finished a SARAH SILVERMAN podcast and began a WHITNEY CUMMINGS podcast with DAVID SPADE.

220pm: To County Market/Fairhills: $61 at Country Market and $7 at Dollar General (razors, incense, 2 placemats).

345pm: Watched 'THE SIGNAL' (Amazon Prime).   On New Year's Eve a signal is broadcast that turns listeners into homicidal maniacs. Barely above the level of a student film. Shot in Atlanta, Georgia. The town's name in the film is 'Terminus' which was the original name for Atlanta. No Stars.

Then watched an episode of 'LOUDERMILK' (Amazon Prime). No jokes, just attitude.

630pm: ON THE TREADMILL...2 MILES at 3.4 pace and watched ALI MACOFSKY on The Joe Rogan Experience. 

715pm: In the tub with GIRLS LIKE US and listening to THE RONETTES, THE DRIFTERS, Early BEATLES that I'd never heard ~ 'Leave My Kitten Alone' is a BEATLES song? (No, but it was almost on an early album and  'Chains', written by Carole King was too).

Watched 'UNHINGED' (Amazon Prime). A harried housewife taking her son to school crosses paths with a psycho. She blared her horn at him because he was too slow taking off at a stoplight. She failed to give a 'courtesy tap' and extreme road rage ensues. Some crazy driving sequences in less than average vehicles that seemed much more realistic than the flashier and over-orchestrated stunts you usually see in films. Shot in New Orleans, and Kenner, Louisiana. "here's your fucking courtesy tap"...as she stomps the scissors into into road rage guy's eye socket. A portrait of an emasculated man who only has one emotion- EXTREME ANGER. An enjoyable guilty pleasure; with Russell Crowe, Caren Pistorius, Gabriel Bateman.
