935am. 225pm. 920pm. 

Up 810am: Mostly sunny with temps to lower 60's.

While checking the films on Hoopla I noticed that 'ANOTHER ROUND' was available and that's today's Morning Movie. Four Danish high school teachers stumble upon an obscure Norwegian scientist who had a theory that the human blood alcohol content should not be 0%, but, for optimum performance, it should be .05%. It works for a while, but soon the negative impact of booze takes its toll on the teachers. But, overall, the film is more of an examination of 'Male Menopause' than the dangers of alcoholism.  It's a dark subject for a movie and it's not really a drama or a comedy, but very entertaining.

Then I watched the last episode of  'THE SONS OF SAM' (Netflix).  Author Maury Terry (THE ULTIMATE EVIL) makes a flimsy connection that the Son of Sam murders were connected to 'The Process Church' /'The Children' or for a secret affiliation to any satanic group, but did make the case that Berkowitz acted with at least the Carr brothers and maybe others. 

235pm: Parkview, Country Club, Outer Park, Holmes, Walnut, panhandle Northside, up the hill, Parkview, Fairway, and up to 940... JUST OVER 2 HOURS... 

MP3... WAYNE SHORTER, 'Astral Weeks' ~ VAN, 'John Barleycorn Must Die' ~ TRAFFIC. 

Reading 'RIVERS OF THE BLACK MOON' 

630pm: In the tub with more 'MOON' and listening to THE ISLEY BROS. & Santana, and part of a podcast with Bert Kreischer on Ari Shaffir. 

Watched 'WARMED-OVER KRAUTROCK' (Hoopla). The last few days of an indie record store in Silver Lake, CA. before it goes out of business; a guy who is a walking 'rock critic', an aspiring rock singer, and the 'tough mama' of the store. The movie is definitely heartfelt, but the writing is almost the level of a student film, but more nice shots of the Los Angeles area.
