 Fr 3/22/24

710am (2-B). 8am (1-SB). 1030am (1-SB). 1215pm (1-SB). 

250pm (2-B). 535pm (2-B). 820pm (2-B). 

Up 550am: Partly cloudy with temps to low 60's and rain predicted for tonight. 

Watched 'MY NAME IS LOH KIWAN' (Netflix). A melodramatic portrait of a young refugee in crisis. A boy and his mother escape from North Korea into China.  From there the goal is for the boy to gain refugee status in Belgium and establish a better life in the west. This is where his dire ordeal begins.  He is desperately poor, has no friends or resources, can't speak the language, and for a time lives in a public restroom. Later, he is robbed by a pretty female Korean refugee and she becomes the love of his life. The girl works as a marksman in a shooting parlor. I've never heard of this but it seems like just another thing that people can bet on. The film is a bit heavy handed on moralizing, but I liked it.

Watched 'COMIN' UP SHORT' (Amazon Prime: 1hr). 'Shorty' {from Da Lench Mob} fills us in on the history, the music, and the secrets of N.W.A and the Los Angeles Rap scene. Authentic & real- you don't need to be a fan of the musical genre to appreciate the doc, but it was still only a 'C-minus'.    

I want to skip the treadmill and do a long walk later in the afternoon.

More 'IRON REIGN' (Netflix). I finished episode #6 and two segments remain- just over two hours. It seems that they are tying in too many backstories and they seem to lack development. I might run it all together tomorrow morning, or do half tonight. 

2pm: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to do the weights and then a long walk.

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps. 

3pm- 5pm to Washington Park...Parkview, Wash.Pk southside, Bates,  Outer Park,  Douglas,  Leland,  Walnut,  Wash.Pk northside,  up the hill,  Parkview,  Fairway,  and up to 940; STEVE MARRIOTT- The Atlantic Years; more of KATT WILLIAMS on J.R.E. When I left I was overdressed, but on the way back the temperature dropped at least ten degrees and the wind began howling. 

Oatmeal/ 'VIENNA BLOOD'

540pm: In the tub with 'VIENNA BLOOD' and listening to UNSUK CHIN Playlist; LED ZEPPELIN Playlist; FACES Playlist. 

***Frank Tallisis novel 'VIENNA BLOOD' is named after a Strauss waltz. 

Finished KATT WILLIAMS on J.R.E. and began 'The Black Keys' on J.R.E.

I was going to watch 'IRON REIGN' (Netflix), but I only have the final episode to go (69"), so I'll save it for tomorrow morning and tonight I'll continue '3 BODY PROBLEM' (Netflix).  At midnight the universe 'winked' and either the science of physics is 'wrong' or it's some kind of hoax or scam. Chinese scientists discover a way of bouncing a radio signal off of the sun to exponentially strengthen its reach. This vastly increases the ability to contact alien civilizations. Scientists stumble upon a 'gamer helmet' that produces a 100% alternative reality. I'm hooked on the series and I shut it down 41 minutes into episode #2.
