Mo 2/14/22- Buddy Somewhat Sick

Mo 2/14/22

840am. 1220pm. 6pm (3 hits/ bong). 755pm. 

Up 630am: Sunny with temps to mid 30's and warmer tomorrow.

Wrote up 'STAR CHILD' by Fred Mustard Stewart for the blog.

***To highlight and cut and paste

1) left click on where you want to start

2) Depress Shift key

3) Move the mouse

So glad I found this technique. I've been having problems with this function for a long time. It wasn't the mouse at all!

Spent entirely too long trying to sync albums to the mp3 player- No consistent plan, just keep banging away until it works; 'Mighty Like A Rose', 'Blue Blvd', 'Karma', 'Drunk With Passion'. 

Watched 'I'M NO LONGER HERE' (Netflix). An excellent Mexican film about a seventeen year old boy from Mexico who bonds with a gang of kids who love the music and style of the Kolombia counterculture movement. However, he runs afoul of the local gang cartel and flees to Jackson Heights, NY, but he cannot gain a foothold. For him, there's nowhere out and nowhere in. Shot largely with non-actors in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. 18 wins & 20 nominations.  

***935am: When I took the phone off of the charger, it seemed to go dead. Finally it went into an extreme reboot, but now it works fine. Jesus, 'if/when' the phone dies it would mean a 'code red' emergency trip to the Xfinity store. I couldn't even schedule an appointment because I wouldn't have a phone. No Bluetooth speakers, no treadmill.... 

Wrote the Chat Wrap 

1235pm: Parkview, Wash.Pk, Wiggins,  Outer Park, Lincoln, South Grand, northside of Wash.Pk,  road up the hill, Parkview, Kenyon, and down to 940...ONE HOUR AND 45 MINUTES...Mp3...'Drunk With Passion'- THE GOLDEN PALOMINOS, 'Karma'- PHAROH SANDERS, 'Mighty Like A Rose'- ELVIS COSTELLO. 

On the couch with 'Crazy Fingers' and listening to JEFF BECK.

445pm: TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND 0.50 SLANT and more of DAVE SMITH  on J.R.E. 

Weight set; added 5lbs. yesterday.

***Buddy threw up, but I noticed a giant hairball in the vomit.  He was hungry and wolfing food within 20 mins. 

6pm: In the tub with 'Crazy Fingers' and listening to DEREK &THE DOMINOS 'Live'. 

Two discs arrived from Netflix, but I decided to do the first one tomorrow morning. I will try to open to Kanopy on the Edge web browser to see if this makes any difference. This is what they suggested to me, yet it made no difference whatsoever. 

Watched 'QT-8: The First Eight' (Kanopy). A retrospective on the work of film director, Quentin Tarantino that's an amalgam of engaging interviews, film footage, and insightful discussions. All of his films are worth another look, regardless of how many times you have seen them. I didn't realize that Tarantino worked closely with Harvey Weinstein for over two decades. It makes you wonder if Tarantino would have made it as big had it not been for Weinstein's input as the producer of nearly all of his films.

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...
