 Th 7/27/23

7pm (2-B). NEW BATCH- 930am (2-B). 1225pm (1-B). 430pm (2-B). 720pm (2-B). 

Up 530am: Hot & sunny with temps almost to 100 {Humidity 89%} EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING thru Saturday. I didn't even open the windows this morning. 

Watched 'KNOCK AT THE CABIN DOOR' (Amazon Prime). The theme is that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse arrive on earth as 'Guidance, Healing, Nurturing, and Violence'. Two dads and their eight year old adopted daughter must make a choice. One of them must die or all of humanity perishes and the three of them will live in limbo for eternity. I thought there would be a trick ending, but I guess the 'Four Horsemen' never lie; with Dave Bautista, Jonathan Groff, Ben Aldridge, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Rupert Grint, and Abby Quinn. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

NEW BATCH: 'Butterscotch Willy' Hybrid. 

Finished 'BURN THE HOUSE DOWN' (Netflix). It was the other brother who started the kitchen fire. He was returning a sweater that his mother had stolen and he noticed something brown and delicious on the stove. Mayhem ensued. The actor looked about eight years old but he was playing a fourteen year old so he was too young to be criminally charged. Such a strange and foreign series, although aimed at a Japanese audience, the themes and issues reveal a lot to a westerner about the Japanese people. I really liked this one. 

Watched 'THE HOUSE ON SWEET AND SEVENTH' (60"- Amazon Prime). On a September night in 1998 in Bismarck, North Dakota a husband and wife were brutally murdered. It was their son and a friend who wielded the knives, but upwards of a dozen people knew about the crime and nobody notified the police. No real reason was offered for why they did it. I think that if a bunch of people who are not related move into a house in your neighborhood, you stand a good chance of experiencing problems. 

12pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing to hit the treadmill.

1225pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE WITH ZERO SLANT; watched a complete TUESDAYS WITH STORIES;  began a MATT AND SHANE'S podcast.

Weights:  3 sets/  15 reps

Reading 'RANSOM'

345pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; more of DUNCAN TRUSSELL on J.R.E. 

435pm:  In the tub with 'RANSOM' and listening to SON SEALS- 'Midnight Son' Playlist; JOHNNY WINTER- 'Guitar Slinger'; CLASH- 'From Here To Eternity' Playlist; JAMES Playlist; SOUNDGARDEN- 'Superunknown' Playlist. 

More of 'MATT & SHANE'S' podcast

Began 'THE ENDLESS NIGHT' (Netflix). I shut it down 24 minutes into episode #2. A docudrama about a nightclub fire in Santa Maria, Brazil where a couple of hundred people died. The lead singer in one of the bands lit the ceiling on fire by mistake during their act. He split immediately. I'm already hooked and the fire happened in the first half of episode #1 and the series has five episodes.

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...
