Mo 8/19/24

725am (2-LB). 8am (1-B). 955am (1-LB). 110pm (2-LB). 535pm (2-LB). 815pm (2-LB). 

Up 545am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to upper 70's. Unbelievable temperatures for mid August in central Illinois. 

Watched 'CRYPTO BOY' (Netflix). It's a lightweight film of the 'Father/ Son' variety. Dad has run his taco diner for years, but urban developers are forcing him out. His adult son works at the shop and thinks that investing in the new crypto currencies might save the day. They bet everything they have and lose it all, yet they bond and become closer than ever by sprucing up the joint and changing the menu. It strains a bit for 'heartfelt', but somewhat worth a look. Why an Egyptian would immigrate to the Netherlands and open a Mexican restaurant might have made a more interesting story. Set in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Watched 'BLOOD AND BONE' (Netflix). A martial arts street fighter fights his way to the top of the heap and we've seen it all before.  The story is barely to the level of a comic book and it would take far more than a few highly orchestrated fight scenes to make it memorable; with Michael Jai White as the fighter and Eamonn Walker as the evil fight promoter. I shut it down with 25 minutes left to go and I might finish it at Planet Fitness later this afternoon. 

Wrote a short Chat.  

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

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps

120pm: To Planet Fitness...TWO HOURS AND 30 MINUTES..."Cross,  45"Treadmill,  30"Bike,  15"Treadmill,  15"Cross;  watched 'LOVE,  CHARLIE: The Rise and Fall of Chef Charlie Trotters (Netflix)- A profile of the infamous Chicago restaurateur. He was a superstar for over two decades and then his ego got out of control; a 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'; finished 'BLOOD AND BONE' (Netflix).

Reading 'DARK SACRED NIGHT' and listening to MOTT THE HOOPLE- 'Mott'; BAD COMPANY- 'Deluxe Edition'; FACES Playlist. 

Began BERNIE SANDERS on THEO VON.

More 'UNAUTHORIZED LIVING' (Netflix). I shut it down 1 hr and 3 minutes into episode #5. It's still compelling and hasn't lost a bit of forward momentum.

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...

We 4/23/25- Gummy 645am {I took 1/4 of a 200 mg of 'DIET SMOKE' gummy: 50 mg total}. 650am (1-LB: Cookie Bread). 910am (1/2-LB: Cookie Bread).  1220pm (1-LB: Panama Punch). 535pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker). 815pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker).  Up 545am: A mix of suny & clouds with temps to about 80. 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...
