 We 2/14/24- Oil Change/ Tire Rotation at 1pm

640am (2-B). 1040am (2-B). 1220pm (1-B). 540pm (2-B). 820pm (2-B). 

Up 545am: Bright & sunny with temps to lower 50's.

I was going to watch 'C'mon C'mon' (Amazon Prime), but I ran a Windows Update and decided to see something a little more upbeat. 

Watched 'SOUND OF FREEDOM' (Amazon Prime). A corny propaganda piece about child sex trafficking. As the drug war is exposed for what it was, the bureaucracy must find new ways to survive. Instead of taking down the drug traffickers, now it's open season on human traffickers. I noticed that Mel Gibson was the executive producer and the film stars Jim Caviezel who sank (made?) his career when he played Jesus; with Jim Caviezel, Mira Sorvino, and Bill Camp. "36" Metascore. The entire child porn industry is based on demand. Who engages in this sexual behavior and why isn't the emphasis on discovering why the demand seems to be increasing? Or is the entire issue just one more weapon in the Culture Wars? 

From The Telegraph: "It’s bizarre, unsettling and yet – in the filmmaking equivalent of turning wine to water – bracingly dull to boot." 

1010am: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to walk on the treadmill and then head out to Green's new location on West Stanford Avenue at 1pm. I want to stop at Ace on the way home for furnace filters and new light bulbs for the bathroom fixture. 

1040am: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; TUESDAYS WITH STORIES; more COLIN QUINN on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK  

No Weights 

1230pm (1245pm- 145pm) $152.64- Oil, tire rotation,  replace interior air filter. 

To Axe on Wabash $100.92- 3 furnace filters,  4 light bulbs.  I thought filters were under 5 bucks a piece...nada 

Home 215pm & reading 'SHADOW FIRES'

450pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished COLIN QUINN on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'; began 'ARE You Garbage?' guys on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'.

545pm; In the tub with 'SHADOW FIRES' and listening to STEVE  WINWOOD- 'Before Traffic'; FLEETWOOD MAC- 'Then Play On'; JOHN MAYALL & THE BLUES BREAKERS- 'So Many Roads'.

More of 'the Garbage guys' on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'.

Began 'OKTOBERFEST: Beer & Blood' (Netflix). A strange tale about the making of the Munich Oktoberfest in 1900. Based on actual events, I'll try to find something about the history.

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...
