We 3/19/25

 We 3/19/25

740am (1-LB: Guavadew). 10am (1-LB: Cookie Bread). 115pm (1-LB: Guavadew). 255pm (1/2-LB: Guavadew). 535pm (1-LB:  Cookie Bread). 815pm (1-LB: Guavadew). 

Up 615am: Windy with the threat of strong thunderstorms this afternoon with temps to mid 70's. At noon a Tornado Watch was issued until 9pm, but the radar map is not nearly as lethal as it looked last weekend. 

Watched 'THE IDES OF MARCH' (Amazon Prime).  A film about the slimy nature of American politics that tries to demonstrate how far we have sunk. Winning is the only goal and morality and ethics are out the window. Loyalty to the candidate is now worth far more than any moral principle. The film's message is kind of dated since sex with a young and attractive intern would probably not end a political career in the Trump Era. The level of accountability for a candidate in contemporary America is so low that it's comical; with Ryan Gosling, George Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, Evan Rachel Wood, Marisa Tomei, Jeffrey Wright. Nominated for an Oscar; 9 wins & 36 nominations. "67" Metascore and I would go to "79". Directed and co-written by George Clooney and based on a play 'FARRAGUT NORTH' by Beau Willimon who also was a co-writer on the film.   

More 'ADOLESCENCE' (Netflix). The case involves 'bullying' and 'Incel' which stands for 'involuntary celibacy'. Thirteen year olds obsessing over their sex lives? Filming locations include South Kirkby, South Elmsall and Sheffield in Yorkshire. Minsthorpe Community College in South Elmsall was used as a location for the school scenes in Episode 2. It's in northern England, south of Leeds and north of Sheffield. The absence of music and sound during the dramatic parts really heightens the tension. Is the thirteen year old suspect a psycho or just a bright kid lashing out? I shut it down 8 minutes into episode #4. 

1235pm: The PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill. Today I'll oil the deck, but I'm going to cut back on the liquid to prevent slippage. [It seemed to do the trick; smooth not slick]

120pm: FIVE MILES TO 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; a complete 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'- Cold Plunge!

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps. 

Reading 'THE WASP FACTORY'

435pm: TWO MILES TO 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; more TIG NOTARO on 'BLOCKS'.

Partly sunny with dangerous high winds. Freaky & certainly gusts over 40 mph, but we missed the thunderstorms. Snow flurries are predicted for tonight. 

1240pm:  In the tub with 'THE WASP FACTORY' & a SciFi anthology and listening to YES Playlist; CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE Playlist. 

More TIG NATARO on 'BLOCKS'.

More 'ADOLESCENCE' (Netflix). Wow, what an ending! I didn't even know that I was watching the final episode. The kid really was a psycho and the family seemed to realize this. A very grim and sad tale, but not sure about the definition of 'nonce'. In British slang it refers to a child sex offender. 

Began 'MOGURA' (Netflix). I shut it down 14 minutes into the first episode. A Japanese detective goes undercover to shut down a cannabis farm run by a group of rappers. Do the Japanese still criminalize weed? {Yes!}

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

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...
