 Su 4/23/23- $5 Bag of Books: 12pm-3pm Rochester Library

7am (B). 825am (1-SB). 10am (2-B). [TWO 10 mg GUMMIES]. 1150am (1-SB). 135pm (2-B). 435pm (2-B). 715pm (2-B).

Up 530am: Partly sunny & breezy with temps to about 60.

Did the Weekly Cleaning

Watched 'BAD BOYS' (Netflix).  A sub-average 'Cop/ Buddy' picture set in mid 90's Miami. Two police detectives protect a sexy witness and attempt to recover a massive amount of heroin that was stolen from the police lockup. Lots of car chases, explosions, and general 'boom-boom' and about what you would expect; with Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Joe Pantoliano, and Tea Leoni. Directed by Michael Bay. Chicago Sun Times: Roger Ebert's reaction to the film:

"Whom do they make these movies for? What exercise in self-deception inspires them to go to such effort and expense for what is obviously going to be a lame exercise in retreadmanship?"

945am: PC is 'Off' and preparing for Five Miles on the treadmill. The plan is to hit the Rochester library for a five dollar bag of books; 12pm- 3pm.

1005am:  FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; a complete TUESDAYS WITH STORIES; more of 'RUNNING THE LIGHT'.

1205pm: To Rochester. Spent ten minutes in Rochester driving around because I didn't go far enough east on Rt.29. A bag of books for $5.00 but I was in the building from 1245pm- 1pm and only 7 books made it into the bag. It was slim pickings and I was home by 130pm.

Checking in the new books: 6 paperbacks and 1 hardback (IAN RANKIN) & then reading 'THE RINGMASTER'.

345pm: TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; began JOEY DIAZ on J.R.E.

440pm: In the tub with 'THE RINGMASTER' and listening to KINKS- 'Lola vs. Powerman'; ADRIAN BELEW POWER TRIO; PARLIAMENT Playlist.

Began NICK SWARDSON on WHISKEY GINGER YouTube.  

Began the first episode of 'TRANSATLANTIC' (Netflix). Shut it down 10 minutes into episode #2. It's set in 1940 Occupied Marseilles, France and concerns a Chicago heiress who bankrolls a ragtag network of resistance people to smuggle refugees out of Vichy France. Based on real events; with Gillian Jacobs (LOVE) and Corey Stoll (HOUSE OF CARDS). I might tag this series for later.

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).
