Mo 10/11/21

 Mo 10/11/21940am. 940pm. (12 hrs. apart. It happened!)

Up 750am: Rain began around 10am and continued through the afternoon. Temps to low 70's.

Watched 'THE ATTORNEY' (Amazon Prime). Another movie about Democratization in South Korea. The film is based on the experiences of a lawyer who defended a group of university students who were arrested when they formed a book club to discuss political systems that were not sanctioned by the Korean government. Years later this lawyer later became president of South Korea and later committed suicide after he was charged with corruption and bribery. Not a very good movie, but an interesting subject. 

Wrote the 'Weekly Wrap'. 

2pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill. 

215pm: 5 MILES AT 3.5 PACE and 0.50 SLANT...I watched more of BERT KREISCHER on J.R.E. then the last episode of ATYPICAL, and began an UNCLE JOEY'S JOINT. 

Reading on the couch and finished 'MAO II'' by DON DeLILLO. An interesting piece of writing, but not compelling because it wasn't deep enough. One of the few books that I might have liked more if they were longer. 

550PM: 2 MILES AT 3.5 PACE AND 0.50 SLANT and finished JOEY DIAZ'S podcast with DAVID CHASE (The Sopranos) and began another 'WHISKEY GINGER '.

645pm: In the tub with a new novel- 'OverTheEdge'- JONATHAN KELLERMAN and listening to SKRILLEX,  BANDITOS, and various podcasts. 

Began a long YouTube video about Frank Zappa's recording labels called ''FRANK ZAPPA: FROM STRAIGHT TO BIZARRE".   Alice Cooper signed to Zappa's label in 1968 when they were still called 'The Nazz'. Captain Beefheart was musically untrained and hummed, whistled, or shouted the music to band members and they transcribed it. An 18 year old female songwriter became Zappa's girlfriend and her album was released to do nothing. The GTO'S (Girls Together Outrageously). Zappa released Lenny Bruce's first unedited album and supported Lord Buckley and Wildman Fischer's comedy.  Celebration of art by the insane. Straight Studio Logo....Cloud of smoke and a ruler underneath.

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...
