 Mo 3/25/24

710am (2-B). {one 5 mg THC/ 20 mg CBD}. 810am (1-SB). 950am (1-SB). 1255pm (2-B). 540pm (2-B). 815pm (2-B). 

Up 540am: Occaisional light rain & windy conditions with temps to about 60. 

Wrote up 'VIENNA BLOOD' by Frank Tallis for the blog.

Watched 'INDIGNATION' (Hoopla).  {from a novel by Philip Roth} What a terrific ending! Olivia is a very old woman in a nursing home who remembers a very special boyfriend from her days at Winesburg college. The boy's sexually repressive attitudes and his rotten family life were really just incidents in Olivia's recollection. There were pictures of a vase and roses repeating on the wallpaper in her rest home and this is what reminded her of Marcus; with Logan Lerman and Sara Hadon. I really enjoyed this film and it's an accurate portrayal of the guilt and shame that were a toxic byproduct of America's sexual mores of the 1950's. "78" Metascore...Benjamin Franklin's definition of 'Democracy'- Two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch'.

I wrote The Chat

The dentist's office called and I'm on for tomorrow at 1pm

Watched 'THE KILLING' (Amazon Prime). An elite robbery crew pull off a race track heist and it all goes smoothly until the boss learns that the loot is in a suitcase that's too large to take on the plane. The suitcase falls off the loading truck and the wind blows the cash away. Directed by Stanley Kubrick and the script was co-written with Jim Thompson; with Sterling Hayden, Vince Edwards (BEN CASEY), and Elisha Cook Jr. "91" Metascore... 'The Academy of Chess and Checkers- 5 cents per hour'. Kind of like an old school arcade for a couple of popular board games.

1220pm: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to do the weights and then hit Planet Fitness.

105pm: Planet Fitness...[slightly shorter]...45"Cross, 45"Treadmill,  30"Bike,  45"Cross;  watched movie 'COCAINE: One Man's Seduction' (Amazon Prime]- Corny & hyperbolic nonsense from the early 80's about a Los Angeles real estate agent who descends into the satanic votex of cocaine addiction. Nothing in this film is even remotely believable; with Dennis Weaver, James Spader, and Jeffrey Tambor; more of 'SOMETHING'S BURNING'; more True Crime on YouTube. 

Began 'BUTTERFIELD 8' by JOHN O'HARA (Kindle)

545pm:  In the tub with 'BUTTERFIELD 8' and listening to GRATEFUL DEAD Live; JOHN HIATT- 'Best of '.

Finished 'SOMETHING'S BURNING'

More '3 BODY PROBLEM' (Netflix). I shut it down 31 minutes into episode #7. Only an hour and a half to go to finish the series. The young & dying physicist is going to allow the authorities to shoot his brain into space and spy on the alien invasion. Remember to check out the YouTube videos on this series.

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...
