We 6/29/22

 We 6/29/22

720am (2). 940am (1). 1240pm (2). 655pm (1). 

Up 530am: Sunny and a little warmer with temps to upper 80's.

Watched 'PLANET TERROR' (Tubi-TV). I hadn't laughed that hard in ages and I was in stitches to the end of the film. One could say that it's about a one legged stripper who tries to become a standup comedian or it's a movie about zombies, mutants, explosive devices, and buckets of gore; Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodriguez, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, Jeff Fahey, and Bruce Willis.  

Then I watched 'UNA' (Kanopy). I had seen it before but remembered none of the details- still a fine (if difficult) film.  When she was only thirteen she had a sexual encounter with a friend of her father and the film documents her confrontation with this man after a decade of wondering why he left. Deep and maybe just a bit overwrought, but some fine performances and I never knew where it was going; Rooney Mara, Ben Mendelsohn, and Rz Ahmed.  

***I had to clear the cache but before I restarted the movie I did a speed check (on the i3 Broadband site) and noticed I was only getting 40-50 Mbps. At noon I called their office and they had me 'unplug/plug' the router, but when I retested the speed it was unchanged. I made an appointment for tomorrow between 8am-10am for a tech to check my setup.

1220pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for an afternoon at Planet Fitness. Then a stop for a 30 pk of Bush and maybe the vitamin shop for more pills. 

1250pm: To Planet Fitness. 45"Cross.  45"Treadmill.  30"Bike.  30"Treadmill.  30" Cross and watched a Korean documentary called 'CYBER HELL' (NETFLIX). A young man in South Korea entices teenage girls to send him nude shots on an app and then he blackmails them. Later he markets their photos to pedophiles in his  online chatroom. I am surprised that this doesn't happen in the US, or we're just not hearing about it,  a TUESDAYS WITH STORIES, and more RYAN HOLIDAY on J.R.E. 

To the gas station up the hill for 30pk. Busch

 455pm: In the tub with A THIN DARK LINE and listening to RONNIE HAWKINS & THE HAWKS; NRBQ - 'Tapdancin' Bats'.

Checked the speed on the downstairs PC and it is about the same: 50-60 Mbps. Not acceptable! 

I watched the first episode and part of the second of a Netflix 4-part British series 'YOU DON'T KNOW ME' (Netflix). 

***i3 Broadband between 8am and 10am tomorrow. Ask about connecting the phone to 'ken' or 'ken-5g' network.

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...

We 4/23/25- Gummy 645am {I took 1/4 of a 200 mg of 'DIET SMOKE' gummy: 50 mg total}. 650am (1-LB: Cookie Bread). 910am (1/2-LB: Cookie Bread).  1220pm (1-LB: Panama Punch). 535pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker). 815pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker).  Up 545am: A mix of suny & clouds with temps to about 80. 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...
