 Fr 2/10/23

7am (2-B). 925am (2-B). 1210pm (2-B). 445pm (2-B). 710pm (2-B). 

Up 530am: Mostly sunny with temps to mid 30's.

Watched 'LOVING ADULTS' (Netflix). An affluent Danish man's mistress demands that he leave his wife. But his wife will turn him into the police for business fraud if he even tries to divorce. So, the man decides to run his wife over when she takes her evening run. However, he runs over (twice!) the wrong woman! It's a wild tale and I'll bet that there will be an English remake of this one. I really liked it. Filmed and set in and around scenic Funen, Denmark. 

***This morning a tree cutting service was working on the big tree down the street on the other side at the older single woman's house. Sometime in the future this area will be known as 'The Stumps' instead of 'The Oaks'.   

***They only trimmed the tree and the difference is barely discernible. I guess I'm not the only one who cares about our neighborhood trees.

More 'UNDERCOVER' (Netflix). Melodramatic and over the top and American country & western on the soundtrack. Shut it down 35 minutes into episode #7.

1120am: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to do the weights and then hit Planet Fitness. 

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps. 

I prepared the $50 Texas Roadhouse gift certificate for mailing to Red Oak Lane when I went to Planet Fitness.

1230pm: To Planet Fitness 

2 tried. 'CROPSEY' (Amazon Prime). The documentary began with rumors about a mythical child abductor who lived in the woods on  Staten Island.  This is where the infamous Willowbrook Hospital was located. ANDRE RAND is the name of the homeless man who was credited with the murders and kidnappings. He might have been innocent as all of the evidence against him was circumstantial; more of 'B-REAL' (Cypress Hill) on J.R.E; finished SEAN PENN on CLUB RANDOM. 

450pm: In the tub with 'STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND' and listening to RICH ROBINSON; 'Dead Man's Pop'- THE REPLACEMENTS.

Watched more of 'B-REAL on J.R.E.' and then I watched a YouTube video 'B-REAL In The Smoke Box' with DOUG BENSON. 

Began Netflix disc '12 MIGHTY ORPHANS'. A very corny and cloying film that circulates every cliche in the book about the value of 'team spirit' and 'self reliance'. It's a fractured fable about a troubled football coach who introduces new strategies into the game of football and this allows his team of orphans to become the 'darlings' of  the Texas plains...or something; with Luke Wilson, Wayne Knight, Martin Sheen, Treat Williams, and Ron White.       Shut it down at 1 hour and 12 minutes 

I finished 'STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND' before I went to sleep.

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...
