Fr 12/1/23

710am (2-B). 810am (1-SB). 1040am (1-SB). 1255pm (2-B).  535pm (2-B).  815pm (2-B). 

Up 640am: Rain ending early this morning with a chance of some showers this afternoon with temps to upper 40's. 

Watched 'THE WORLD OF KANAKO' (Amazon Freevee).  A crazed and alcoholic Japanese police detective looks for his missing daughter and learns that she was nothing like he had remembered. More violence, brutality, and cruelty than in any film that I can remember and most of the transgressive behavior is done by the 'hero' of the tale. Set in Saitama, a suburb of Tokyo that is about twenty miles north of the metropolitan area. From RogerEbert.com:

"It’s a film that’s tempting to dismiss because of its bleak, misanthropic viewpoint on the world, but that would be discounting the quality of the filmmaking and the riveting performance at its center." 3 wins & 2 nominations. "55" Metascore. Directed by Tetsuya Nakashima.

Watched more of  'CRIMINAL CODE' (Netflix). I finished episode #6 and two more to go. Soulless and his crew have robbed a palette full of gold bars that were so heavy that the truck wouldn't move. A few of the men had to get out and ride in a different vehicle. This is one classy series. 

1225pm: The PC is 'Off' and preparing for five miles on the treadmill. 

1pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; the latest TUESDAYS WITH STORIES; more of DAVE SMITH on J.R.E. 

Weights: 3 sets/15 reps 

Reading 'DEMON COPPERHEAD'

440pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished ROBERT KENNEDY JR on WHITNEY CUMMINGS. 

540pm: In the tub with 'DEMON COPPERHEAD' and listening to GRATEFUL DEAD- 'Blues For Allah'; BLACK SABBATH Playlist; THE BAND- 'To Kingdom Come'.

Began NIKKI GLASER on WHITNEY CUMMINGS. 

More 'CRIMINAL CODE' (Netflix). I shut it down 5 minutes into the final episode with forty-four minutes left. I'll finish this excellent series tomorrow morning.

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...
