 Th 9/7/23

725am (2-B). 840am (1-SB). 950am (1-SB). 105pm (2-B).  545pm (2-B). 820pm (2-B). 

Up 615am: Cloudy with temps only to low 70's.

Watched 'THE ISABELLA NARDONI CASE' (Netflix). In 2008 a Brazilian couple claimed that a stranger broke into their sixth floor apartment and threw their six year old daughter out the window. The safety net around this window had been cut with a pair of scissors. The entire country was galvanized by the couple's trial for this heinous crime. But their attorneys could not offer any evidence of an intruder or refute the fact that the couple were in the apartment at the time of the incident. Their only defense was that they were being tried  and convicted in the court of public opinion. The man was sentenced to 30 years and the wife got 26, but they both got reduced sentences after spending many years in jail. An interesting case with many gross injustices by the press and authorities.  Police allowed and encouraged journalists to harass the couple to get them to confess. Tinted dark glass was removed from police vehicles when transporting the couple so that the press could get better photographs. An interesting documentary. 

More of 'THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE' (Netflix).  I've finished episode #5 and there is such a blizzard of conflicting family recollections and repressed guilt that it's very hard to keep everything straight. Many of the dramatic scenes are unforgettable for the powerful dialogue and the way that they are shot. I checked Wikipedia and learned that this series is quite different from the novel by Shirley Jackson. The film series concerns how Hill House had a lasting and detrimental effect on five children and their parents. 

1230pm: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to do the weights and then walk to the credit union to deposit the $80 check from the Springfield Clinic. 

 115pm- 240pm: To Heartland...Out Oakmont,  Greenbriar;  Back Golf,  Lynhaven...ONE HOUR AND 25 MINUTES;  LED ZEPPELIN- 'Presence'; CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE- 'Stand Back!'.

Reading 'THE WHOLE TRUTH'

***440pm: THREE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished JOE DEROSA on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK; began JORDAN PETERSON on RUSSELL BRAND. 

550pm: In the tub with 'THE WHOLE TRUTH' and listening to ERIC DOLPHY- 'OUT There'/ 'Out To Lunch' Playlist;  MOLLY HATCHET Playlist; ATLANTA RHYTHM SECTION Playlist. 

A fifteen minute YouTube clip where a former pharmaceutical rep talks with JOE ROGAN about corporate responsibility in the opioid crisis and more of JORDAN PETERSON on RUSSELL BRAND. 

More 'THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE' (Netflix). I finished episode #7 and it looks like that next we will find out what is in 'The Red Room'.

***When I came upstairs I noticed a couple of large hairballs under the kitchen table. However, he seemed his normal self.

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...
