We 7/20/22

715am (2). 10am (1/2). 1140am (2). 640pm (1). 

Up 540am: Bright and sunny with temps to a toasty 90 degrees.

***I 'sawed' (yes, I used my saw) the TV box so that I could fit it into the big blue can. It would have cost $23 if Republic picked it up.

Watched 'PERSUASION' (Netflix). A wry and droll story of a couple who gave up on Love during their teens, and eight years later they both realize that their fire of Love still burns brightly. From a novel by Jane Austen. The secondary characters were unforgettable due to their unrelentingly  narcissistic attitudes; with Richard E. Grant, Dakota Johnson, Henry Golding, and Mia McKenna-Bruce. I really liked this one. ..."Marriage is the greatest blessing that life can offer"..."Where are your children?"...How should I know?".

Then more of 'CHLOE' (Amazon Prime). An odd look at love and attraction between people that share a work environment yet come from a different social and economic class- Strange, yet compelling series TV.

1055am: PC is 'Off' and preparing for an afternoon at Planet Fitness. After the workout I'll drop the modem at the i3 Broadband office west of the mall.

1155am:  To Planet Fitness. 45"Cross.  45"Treadmill. 30"Bike.  30"Treadmill.  30"Cross and finished 'THE TERMINAL LIST' (AMAZON PRIME) and more MARK NORMAND on BERTCAST, and began a SKEPTIC TANK. 

320pm: To i3 Broadband and the manager said he'd send out a different tech and give me a free month if I came back. No can do.

Read 'KINDRED'

435pm: In the tub with 'KINDRED' and listening to 'Celebrate the Music of PETER GREEN'; 'Smokin'- HUMBLE PIE.

Began PAUL VIRZI on J.R.E.  

Watched episode #1 of 'INDIAN PREDATOR: The Butcher of Delhi' (Netflix). I watched the first and part of the second episode of this three part mini-series. Murders and beheadings from the early 2000's perpetrated by an impoverished laborer who had a motorized cart. He used it to sell vegetables and also to deposit body parts in and around the city. No new ground was broken.

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...
