We 10/11/23

745am (2-B).  830am (1-SB). 120pm (2-B). 150pm (2-B). 545pm (2-). 820pm (2-B).  

Up 610am: Buddy threw up water just as I was getting out of bed.

Light showers begin about 9am and end by late morning and then cloudy with temps to about 70. {Rain never happened and it was dry all day}

Watched 'TOSCANA' (Netflix). A Danish production about a chef in Denmark who inherits a castle/ restaurant in Tuscany, Italy. He becomes attracted to the sexy operator but soon learns that she's about to be married. A decent romantic film and the cinematography was superb especially the Tuscan countryside and the culinary creations. 

Finished 'THE NIGHT LOGAN WOKE UP' (Netflix). Filmed in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec, Canada and Montreal, Canada. French Canada is right over the border with Vermont.

The Brandenburgs arrived just before noon and stayed till 1pm. They brought a jug of apple cider and we talked in the living room.

1pm: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to Watch 'TUESDAYS WITH STORIES' and walk Five Miles on the treadmill. 

125pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT Only 16 minutes 

2pm: To Planet Fitness...45"Cross.  30"Bike.  30"Cross.  30"Bike;  watched 'REST IN PEACE DEPARTMENT' (Netflix)- A Boston cop is murdered by his partner and becomes a cop for 'the afterlife police' and his partner is revealed as a demon; Ryan Reynolds, Jeff Bridges, Kevin Bacon, and Mary-Louise Parker. Some decent special effects, but not my cup of tea; Finished TUESDAYS WITH STORIES. 

Reading 'RICH MAN POOR MAN'.

555pm:  In the tub with 'RICH MAN POOR MAN' and listening to ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND- '1st'; SANTANA- 'Live Fillmore 1968'; 

SAVOY BROWN- 'Street Corner Talking'.

More of H. FOLEY & KEVIN RYAN on TIM DILLON'S podcast.

Finished 'THE NIGHT LOGAN WOKE UP' (Netflix). This was taken from a Canadian stage play that was entirely set in an embalming room. No other locations were used, but the film series added characters and numerous settings. Very odd and I didn't get many of the minor details and I don't think anyone could. However, I kind of like it because 'Kitchen Sink Realism' embraces the 'warts and all' approach.    

More 'FUGITIVA' (Netflix). I shut it down 8 minutes into episode #3. I started this series last week and it just got lost in the shuffle. I will see this one through to the end.

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...
