woensdag 31 oktober 2018 It's Halloween! Midnight movie - MST3K: Radar Secret Service. Radar helps, but it takes an undercover blonde to really get the goods on criminal masterminds.
Mike does a maintenance checkup on Crow.
Turn on Stephanie Miller. Yay! Touré is on the show! Long time, no see. Touré should be with Steph more! He talks about his visit to Politicon. Check out The Touré Show with Dennis Rodman at Politicon.
WOW! Weird interview with Dennis Rodman. I need a video cognac.

PEACE TO THE WORLD
Matt + Blue are sweet. The family is incredible with Crow. It's great weather for Halloween. Cool, breezy, gloomy and a little drizzly. Why am I walking into spider webs? Especially around Bellingham City Hall? Is it the Cross Orb Spider? I have to admire the workmanship. But EW!

zaterdag 27 oktober 2018 Midnight - Rachel Maddow. Restless. Start the third season of Daredevil. I manage to get a few winks of sleep. I remember how difficult it was to sleep after watching The Rachel Maddow Show. Then I watch a violent Netflix series. Out for a calming morning walk and watch the sunrise. Down to the Co-op for breakfast. A little shopping at Fred Meyer. Did you ever wonder... Why You Don't Hear From Jonathan Taylor Thomas Anymore? When I get home, I play an old (2002) episode of Smallville - Dichotic - a story about a kid who splits himself in two - staring the lovely and talented Jonathan Taylor Thomas.

The politics. The rhetoric. Back in the 90s, people cracked skulls. Things haven't changed. In October 1998, 21-year-old gay University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard was beaten into a coma and tied to a fence outside Laramie, where he would not be discovered for 18 hours. Is America different now? Matthew Shepard finally laid to rest 20 years after he was killed for being gay.

vrijdag 19 oktober 2018 Turn on Stephanie Miller. High energy this morning! Putin is now gloating. Trump listens to me. Malcolm Nance: We are now watching a reality show, a mentally ill Truman show with atomic bombs. And Fernand R. Amandi tells us about The March to Save Democracy. Sorry, Steph. The show is too intense for me.
Fall warmth embraces Western Washington. The sunshine beckons, so I'm out biking and walking... enjoying incredible nature. Color palette of the day. Nice range of autumn colors on a single tree.
The fog crawling into Elliot Bay is amazing! Thanks KING 5.
