 Th 9/24/26

730am (4-B: Green Crack). 1145am (4-B: Red Congolese). 115pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 535pm (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 830pm (GB: 4/ Red Congolese). 

Up 645am: Another overcast day with temps to just below 70.

Watched 'I SWEAR' (Netflix). A difficult, yet skillfully presented film about Tourette's Syndrome. This could have been a farce, but it's an insightful look at what it would be like to have the condition and the film doesn't ignore or gloss over the reactions of 'normal' people. The Theme: How do you get the general population to recognize that the condition is real and that nobody is faking?  John Davidson lived in Galashiels, Scotland which is about 35 miles southeast of Edinburgh, Scotland. "70" Metascore and I would go to at least "84". 

Finished 'UNTOLD CHESSMATES' (Netflix). 1) The anti-cheating algorithm 'proved' that he was cheating, but it didn't stand up in court?  2) There are millions of possible moves in a chess game, so how could an anal bead, or anything else, be able to convey a single move on the board? 

Then I spent an hour 'learning new things'. I learned exactly 'zero' about Notepad which is the simplest program and has been around since the early 80's, but still a fucking mystery to me. And, I was able to 'delete' many of my 'documents' folders. 

However, the 'blinking' problem seems to have disappeared [no it did not!]. I was about ready to force the problem by opening Netflix and Amazon Music, but it is working (fine? but for how long). I was going to call Tech2Door, but...I'm sick of this.    

1230pm: I called Tech2Door and Christian was in the building, so I got to talk with him. He thinks I need a new TV. To test this theory he'll hook the upstairs PC to the downstairs TV. If the upstairs PC plays problem free, then the problem is with the upstairs TV. I'll replace it and he will do the installation. 

1pm: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to hit Planet Fitness and burn off some tension & aggravation. 

125pm: Planet Fitness...45"Cross, 45"Treadmill, 20"Recumbent Bike,25"Cross...TWO HOURS AND 15 MINUTES; a DREW BINSKY ULTIMATE TRAVELER' (Netflix)- A visit to war torn Ukraine.  All men 18 through 60 cannot leave the country; finished 'ALLEGEDLY' (Netflix)- Rapper dismembers a 14 year old & hides her body in his Tesla abandoned in the Hollywood Hills;  began a 'WORST EX EVER' (Netflix).

To Schnucks: zero Sunkist, apples- $15.00

Reading 'DO WITH ME WHAT YOU WILL'

540pm: In the tub with 'DO WITH ME WHAT YOU WILL' and listening to GRATEFUL DEAD- 'The Angel's Share'/ 'Blues For Allah'; LITTLE FEAT- 'Columbus' Live.

Finished 'ARE YOU GARBAGE?'- How Kevin met his wife; began a TYSO with JEREMIAH WATKINS.

More 'FAUDA' (Netflix). I shut it down 21 minutes into episode #9. Lots of scenery chewing going on...and I like it.

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...

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...

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...
