 We 3/25/26

845am (GB: 6/ Hybrid Popcorn). 1255pm (GB:  5/ Frozen Lemonade). 230pm (2-B/ Frozen Lemonade). 535pm (GB: 5/ Hybrid Popcorn). 

Up 735am: A mix of sun & clouds with temps to about 75.

Watched 'KOLN 75' (Hoopla). The film is based on an incident in the life of the record promoter, Vera Brandes. She booked Keith Jarrett to play at the Koln Opera House and this concert recording went on to become the best-selling recording of a piano performance ever. The big problem in the film is that the piano was not up to snuff. I wonder how much of this narrative is true? {According to Wikipedia the 'broken' piano that Jarrett used was historically correct}  However, the movie is more about female empowerment in a patriarchal system than a film about a pivotal moment in the history of jazz. And, why use a song by the Bee Gees instead of one of Keith Jarrett's pieces? And I think that I look as much like the real Keith Jarrett as the actor who portrays him in the movie. In the film Keith Jarrett asks for $10,000 DM to play and that's about $6,000 usd. "62" Metascore and I would go to "77". 

Watched an episode of 'HOMICIDE NEW YORK' (Netflix)- 'Central Park Slaying'. I shut it down 22 minutes into the second episode. Two rich & entitled fifteen year old kids (a boy & girl) butcher a man Central Park near Strawberry Fields at the edge of The Lake. I'll be back to finish the episode tonight.

1220pm:  The PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk in Washington Park and then to County Market for groceries...maybe. 

To Washington Park...change of plans. Since tomorrow will be much warmer (temps to hit 90 degrees) I thought the walk would be better on Thursday.  

1pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; JOHN OLIVER on DAN SODER;  began 'TUESDAYS WITH STORIES'.

245pm: To County Market & put away by 330pm:  $119.00.

Reading 'THE PURPLE BOOK'

540pm: In the tub to re-begin 'VICTIM' and listening to KEITH JARRETT- 'The Koln Concert'; ALICE COLTRANE Playlist; JOHN MAYALL &THE BLUESBREAKERS- 'Beano'. 

Finished 'TUESDAYS WITH STORIES', finished HOMICIDE: NEW YORK- ' Central Park Slaying'. 

More RADIOACTIVE EMERGENCY (Netflix). On September 13, 1987, two men removed a shielded cesium-137 source (a highly radioactive, glowing blue powder) from an abandoned clinic in Goiania. Four people died from acute radiation syndrome. Over 112,000 people were screened, and hundreds of homes were decontaminated or demolished. This was one of the world's most severe radiological disasters.

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
