 We 12/6/23

745am (2-B). 915am (1-SB). 1215pm (2-B). 545pm (2-B). 810pm (2-B). 

Up 615am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to low 40's.

Wrote up 'DEMON COPPERHEAD' and 'RADICAL CHIC & MAU-MAUING THE FLAK CATCHERS' for the blog. 

Watched 'WHIPLASH' (Netflix). I saw this when it was first released (2014) and I knew that it would be well worth another look. A relentless conductor at a prestigious NYC music school strives for magnificence in one of his student drummers. Or maybe the jazz conductor is just a psycho and clearly over the line. A difficult subject, but it was a tale well told and nearly every moment was riveting; with Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons. Won 3 Oscars; 98 wins & 144 nominations. "89" Metascore.

More of 'RUNAWAY' (Netflix). I shut it down 26 minutes into episode #6. 

1135am: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to visit Esporta this afternoon. On the way out I'll stop for vitamins/ Beer-peanut butter-cat litter-soda; Schnucks

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps

1225pm:  To Esporta...45" Precor.  45"Treadmill.  30"Cross.  30"Bike. 30" Precor;  watched 'TAKEN' (Netflix)- An American ex-security agent travels to Paris to rescue his daughter who has been hijacked by human traffickers. It's about what you would expect; with LIAM NEESON; more of 'DOWNTON ABBEY' (Amazon Prime).

$71.33- Vitamin shop. I decided to buy the beer/ soda/cat litter/ peanut butter tomorrow after the walk. Maybe get the oil changed

 Reading 'CHINAMAN'S CHANCE'

550pm: In the tub with 'CHINAMAN'S CHANCE' and listening to JACK BRUCE Playlist; BLODWYN PIG- 'Ahead Rings Out'.

More of TIM DILLON on 'We MIght Be Drunk'.

More 'RUNAWAY' (Netflix). I shut it down 11 minutes into episode #8. Odd Insight: The girls refuse to see themselves as victims. They believe they are doing everything voluntarily. Their 'boyfriend' is always acting in their best interest. "How would he react if you didn't want to take a client, but spend the evening watching TV"?

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...
