 Su 9/11/22

715am (B). 1020am (B). 1140am (2- B).  4pm (1- B). 450pm (1- B). 650pm (2- B). 

Up 545am: Random showers till late morning with temps only in the upper 60's.

Watched 'SHADOWLANDS' (disc borrowed from Janny). A powerful film about love and suffering and yet another film that I had forgotten how good it was.  Although, I don't know if I go along with God's 'positive' use of pain and suffering.  And not so sure about this one either:  "We read to know we are not alone"; with Anthony Hopkins and Debra Winger. Directed by Richard Attenborough (JURASSIC PARK). Nominated for 2 Oscars; 7 wins & 14 nominations. 

Began 'ENTRAPPED' (Netflix). An Icelandic Biker/ Religious Cult film with exceptional scenery. 

1125am: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a session on the treadmill.

1145am:    FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT and watched 45" documentary 'HEROIN(E) (NETFLIX) - Narcan comes to Huntington,  West Virginia;  and 'I AM A KILLER' (NETFLIX) - A black man slits a clerk's throat and claims that although he did it, he had a traumatic childhood and was in a blackout; and ALEX BERENSON on J.R.E. 

Full Weights/  3 Sets/ 15 Reps

Weekly Cleaning 

Reading 'THE CITY' and listening to OZZY/ RANDY RHOADS.

4pm: TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT and more ALEX BERENSON on J.R.E. 

450pm: In the tub with 'THE CITY' and listening to DUANE ALLMAN Anthology #2 and #1.

Watched 'THE TURNING POINT' (Netflix). An Italian thug robs a bagman and escapes to the apartment of a stranger. They become friends but soon the bad guys find them and all is lost. I had either seen this before or an English remake of the film (No remake, I had seen it before). The slacker guy is a cartoonist and the hoodlum gives him courage to take a chance on himself, but death awaits. A perfect fictionalization of 'The Stockholm Syndrome'.

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...
