Marathon Man

By -
In 1976, Marathon Man was released. It starred Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Olivier, Roy Scheider, and others. This movie is not horror in the usual sense, but there is a really intense scene in it. Dustin Hoffman plays a graduate student who gets involved in his brothers affairs, not by his choice. William Goldman was the screenwriter and it was directed by John Schlesinger. Laurence Olivier plays a sadistic, exiled Nazi war criminal. If you want a well acted thriller, this is your movie. I first saw something from it in Terror in the Aisles. Then I had to track it down. It was worth the time it took to find it. Marathon Man Buy Now

Crazy Chickens

By -
 I'm sitting in my office at home.  All I can hear is the sound of chickens squawking. I think they are trying to encourage me to feed them.  I know when I go out, it will be like Ace Ventura and the animals flocking to him.  I do know they will squawk before laying an egg.  The roosters are non-stop with their calls!

I Feel Lost

By -
 This week, my phone died.  I could not believe it.  I was looking on it and it goes black.  I have my wife look at it.  She gets it to come back to life and updates it to the Icloud.  I start looking at it again.  Then, it dies again.  This time it is for good.  She called TMobile.  They wanted me to enter passwords.  I could not remember them.  They were on the phone.  Eventually, I used my Ipod to access something.  Because it was under a plan we have, I am able to get a new phone.  Only catch is is that it is the same model, Iphone 11.  If I wanted the newest phone, I would have to pay $300.  I went with the same model.  Now I just need to get it.  I find myself lost without my phone.

Stock Manipulation

By -
 Trump is at it again.  Using his power to manipulate stocks.  Yesterday, while stocks were sinking, he announced that the war was almost over.   I doubt that.  He did this to play with the market.  Gas even went down a little.  He probably wishes gas could increase, and the market would do the same.  His family bought in early because of insider information.  I guess corruption is allowed as long as you don't cross the king.  Then, he'd have his puppet in DOJ go after them.
