 Tu 9/22/26- Computer Problems {Tech2Door}

755am (GB: 5/ Green Crack). 1155am (3-B: Red Congolese). 550pm (4-B: Green Crack). 825pm (GB: 4/ Red Congolese). 

Up 645am {listening to NPR from 6am}. Cloudy with temps to upper 60's.

Watched 'ILL MANORS' (Hoopla). It's a film directed by an English Rap star (Ben Drew AKA 'Plan B') who conjures the most negative presentation of urban life possible. It features an almost absurd amount of drugs, prostitutes, violence, poverty, and random deaths. Highlight:  An infant is dropped from a second floor window to escape a fire. The baby is saved, but the 'dropper' must jump and he dies. The film's tone is so 'real' that the street vernacular wasn't even close to the actual dialogue and the subtitles lagged behind by about ten seconds. This made them completely useless. It was like the people in charge of the subtitles couldn't even penetrate their meaning. A very grim and dire film and therefore only somewhat plausible. 

***In the middle of the film I connected with Amazon Prime Music and saw that the computer still 'blinks out' (also on Netflix), so the problem is not solved. I'll have to call Tech2Door.  1110am: He has a 330pm slot for today and I took it. 

Began a 'POST MORTEM' (Netflix). 

1145am: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to hit Planet Fitness and be back in time for Tech2Door.   

1205pm:  To Planet Fitness...TWO HOURS...45"Cross, 45"Treadmill, 15" Recumbent Bike, 15" Cross;  watched 'POST MORTEM' (Netflix); began STEVE LUKATHER on RICK BEATO. 

Home about 230pm and Christian was here from about 330pm to 5pm. It was a graphics card that needed to be updated to stop the 'blinking' problem. When he disabled one of the cards it wouldn't let the Bose speaker bar to play. When he updated the card the speaker bar played and no 'blinking'. He got another $100... The good news

The bad news...As I was shutting down, it asked for a restart and I think the 'blinking' is back. I'm fucking sick of it and I can't get the size smaller. 

535pm: PC is 'Off' and I can't change the size of Gmail and google. This should be simple but I can't figure it out. Fuck. 

555pm: In the tub with 'DO WITH ME WHAT YOU WILL' and listening to GRATEFUL DEAD- 'Live Madison'...One of their best 'Live' recordings; some fine guitar & more than somewhat calming. 

Began JOE LIST & DAN SODER on 'STAVVY'S WORLD'.

More 'FAUDA' (Netflix). I shut it down 30 minutes into episode #7. The chunky hero is part of a secret Israeli hit team...I think.

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...
