We 6/22/22- 1st Pre-Roll

 We 6/22/22- 1st Pre-Roll

7am (2). 915am (1). 1220pm (1).  640pm (3 hits pre-roll). 8pm (3 more hits pre-roll).

Up 635am: Sunny with temps to about 90.

I watered the flowers along the front walk and cut back some of the weeds.

Picked 2 from Hoopla:

'A GOOD WOMAN', 'THE OTHER ME'

Watched 'A GOOD WOMAN' (Hoopla). I didn't realize until the credits rolled that the film was based on a play by Oscar Wilde called 'Lady Windermere's Fan' and that explains the unbelievably clever dialogue; with Helen Hunt, Scarlett Johansson and Tom Wilkinson..."If you care so much about what other people say, why have your thoughts of your own?"..."I've found that the only way to keep your word is to never give it"..."Every man is born truthful, and every man dies a liar"..."Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future"..."Men don't trust women and women don't trust women. It's what binds the Hindu and the Catholic faiths"..."It takes practice and skill to live without regret".

Began a three part series called 'CRIMINAL GERMANY' (Netflix). A rich Berliner is questioned about a murder that occurred thirty years ago. Lots of verbal maneuvering and clever repartee, but the suspect was not a murderer. He only assumed the identity of the murdered man. Not bad and I'll watch the other two episodes. 

1020am: PC is 'Off' and will read and then hit Planet Fitness early this afternoon. 

1230pm: To Planet Fitness. 45" Cross.  45"Treadmill.  30"Bike. 30"Treadmill. 30" Cross and watched 'MANHUNT: Unabomber' (Netflix) - one remains, and more JOE LIST and MARK NORMAND, and began ANTHONY DEVITO on SKEPTIC TANK. 

435pm:  In the tub with VALIS and listening to 'Blood & Chocolate'/ 'Taking Liberties'- ELVIS COSTELLO.

Watched 'THE HUNTER' (Amazon Prime). An aging bounty hunter does his stuff in Los Angeles, NYC, Chicago, and all points in between. Many interesting chase scenes;  1) the bounty hunter hanging off a Chicago CTA  train;  2) watching a Trans Am get blown apart after being chased by a combine around a corn field; 3)  and a 1979 muscle car careers off the 17th floor of Marina Towers and crashes into the Chicago River; with Steve McQueen, Eli Wallach, Kathryn Harrold, LeVar Burton, and Tracey Walter.  Steve McQueen looked exhausted in the movie and it says in the Trivia that he found out that he had lung cancer during the making of this movie. 'THE HUNTER' was Steve McQueen's last film and I was surprised to learn that he was only fifty when he died.  Ralph 'Papa' Thorson was the real bounty hunter and he had a cameo as 'the bartender' and he died in a car bomb explosion in 1991.

***I decided to take a crack at one of the pre-rolled cannabis cigarettes. The first 'joint' that I've smoked in almost forty years, but I've been stoned (lightly) every day for at least two years via '1-hitters' and a bong. The pre-roll was some really weak tea so I did a little more at 8pm. A subtle and mellow high...like smoking banana peel.

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...
