***{Today the AI Mode tab was missing from the Chrome browser on the upstairs PC. It was present on the downstairs PC and Thursday morning it came back to the PC upstairs}*** 

Up 6am: Brutally hot & humid with temps to 93 and an 'Excessive Heat Warning' that ends tomorrow at midnight.  

Watched 'ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER' (Amazon Prime). I don't even remember putting this one in the queue. It's a dark satire about leftist revolutionaries on the run from the authorities in contemporary California.  {The Christmas Adventurers Club..."All Hail Saint Nick"}. It's over three hours so I shut it down with an hour and eight minutes to go. "95" Metascore and all entries were in the hundreds or nineties and a single "50" Metascore and even that was complementary. 

Watched 'THE THIEF COLLECTOR' (Amazon Prime). A fascinating documentary about a strange couple, Jerry and Rita Atler of rural New Mexico. He was a music teacher and she was a speech therapist and they traveled all over the world and had a home full of international art. When the couple died and their possessions were prepared for the estate, a stolen de Kooning was found worth millions. Later authorities found other priceless works of art and it looks like the couple were career art thieves. Nobody would have guessed and still many questions remain unanswered. "70" Metascore and I would go to "85". From Los Angeles Times- "This is a beguiling film about two people so charming and disarming that no one suspected them of anything shady when they were alive — although now that they’re gone, the Alters’ many mysteries have the allure of great art."     

Noon: The PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on a treadmill and a call to ARC. Today there is no chance that I will miss the second session on the treadmill. 

 1225pm:  FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT;  an episode of 'HOMICIDE: NEW ORLEANS' (Netflix)- A man shoots & kills his girlfriend and 4 hours later he guns down a homeless man.  No real motive or reason.

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps 

Call to ARC 2pm- 245pm: This morning; 6am- 830am; she had a body scan to locate & identify growths and tumors; Ground Zero- next step is to interpret the scan & then determine a 'cocktail'  or 'entourage effect' for the chemo to fight the assault. She had a bad muscle cramp during the night. 

Reading 'A FAN'S NOTES'

440pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; HARLAND WILLIAMS with DAN SODER. 

535pm:   In the tub with 'A FAN'S NOTES 'and listening to BILLY COBHAM Playlist;  BAND- 'The Kingdom Come'; KINGDOM COME- 1st album; BECK- 'Odelay'.

Watched YouTube 'STAY WITH ME: The Rise And Fall of The Faces'.

More DAN SODER on HARLAND WILLIAMS.

More 'NOTES FROM THE LAST ROW' (Netflix).

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...
