730am (2-B).  830am (1-SB). 1015am (1-SB). 1225pm (2-B).

540pm (2-B).  815pm (2-B). 

Up 6am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to about 40.

Wrote up 'BIASED' by  Dr. Jennifer Eberhardt for the blog.

Watched 'CAIRO CONSPIRACY' (Hoopla). The film is a complete psychic immersion into the Muslim worldview. The Imam of Al-Azhar University in Cairo dies and the successor that is chosen must be friendly to the state. A 'freshman' is forced to act as a government agent to keep tabs on possible 'other' candidates. The wrong choice could lead to civil war and... "Civil War is worse than murder".  A really fine film that illustrates how the clandestine ways that power is wielded in the highest circles of religion and government. 

More 'BODIES' (Netflix). Another body shows up on Longharvest Court and another timeline (and another detective) is introduced.  I finished episode #2 and the doppelganger of the corpse from 2050 meets the female detective with the 'bowl-cut' hairdo. Another fine series and each episode is an hour and there's eight in the series. The series is based on a graphic novel by Si Spencer. 

1145am: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to visit Planet Fitness and then stop at Schnucks for apples, Natural Light, and diet ginger ale. 

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps

1240pm: To Planet Fitness...45"Cross.  45"Treadmill.  30"Bike.  30"Treadmill.  30"Cross;  watched 'BEFORE THE DEVIL KNOWS YOU'RE DEAD' (Amazon Prime)- Two brothers conspire to rob the family's jewelry store.  Mom is killed and the family is torn asunder; with Philip Seymour Hoffman, Ethan Hawke, Albert Finney, Marisa Tomei, Michael Shannon, and Amy ryan. Directed by Sidney Lumet. 

***$32.00: Schnucks; apples, Squirt, Natural Light.

Reading 'NATIVE SON'

545pm: In the tub with 'NATIVE SON' and listening to RIDE- 'Nowhere'; LED ZEPPELIN- 'Physical Graffiti'; ORNETTE COLEMAN- 'Virgin Beauty'.

More of NATASHA LEGGERO on 'Are You Garbage?'

More 'BODIES' (Netflix). The female detective from the present has found police evidence in the Cold Case Files to connect the three bodies found in 1890, 1941, and 2023 on Longharvest Court in White Chapel.

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...
