woensdag 30 juni 2021 Caui in Pete's spot!!! Last night, we're all surprised to see Caui up there on that chair. She just wants to watch Superman and Lois with us. Nice view of the street.

A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events.

Bike to d'town. At Coastal Geologic Services - 1711 Ellis Street, they have a weather station - KWABELLI 109 - which I often access. Beautiful! What a relief from the HEAT! It's a cool 68.5°F.

To Bellis Fair. To LIDS for a new Mariners cap. The mall is almost empty. Spookiness. Some businesses are gone.

Souvenir! To the Co-op for a Bellingham Flag Mask. Now, I'm all set!

Reopening Washington. It's official. Kid Cudi - Day 'N' Nite.

dinsdag 29 juni 2021 Good morning! It's a terrific Tuesday. Save America, support socialism 🇺🇲 Alms for Buddha.

The New York Times: Mr. Trump's speech - low-key, digressive and nearly 90 minutes long - fell flat at times with an otherwise adoring audience. Scores of people left early as he bounced from topic to topic - immigration, Israel, Speaker Nancy Pelosi's protective mask. Is the Trump show still must-see entertainment for all the members of the MAGA faithful? Yaaaaawwwwwn. 😴 WTA #1 to beautiful Fairhaven. Marine breezes cool me off.

Visit Village Books. Pride colors in the display window.

In the childrens' books area, these floor signs featuring Clifford the Big Red Dog remind people to be socially distant from each other.

Live-Action ‘Clifford The Big Red Dog’ Movie Looks Unintentionally Terrifying.

zaterdag 26 juni 2021 Midnight movie - Masters of the Universe - on Comet. You need the cosmic key! He-Man : I have the power!

Trump revenge tour kicks off with Saturday rally in Ohio. 7 PM at the Lorain County Fairgrounds in Wellington. To you... Splatty Tomatoes. Look, I'm not a doctor but I think it's safe to assume that the origin of the next Delta variant outbreak will be the Trump Rally in Ohio.

Turn on KCTS for Rick Steeves' programs. Enjoy his visit to the ancient ruins of Delos - the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. Silly Saturday movie - MST3K: Ator, The Flying Eagle. Dakar - High Priest of the Spider Cult - surprisingly goes POOF!

vrijdag 25 juni 2021

vrijdag 25 juni 2021 Turn on Freeform. The late movie Why Him? James Franco is Laird - the Silicon Valley millionaire boyfriend every dad hopes their daughter will break up with. Funny, funny!! 😁

Champlain Towers South... the condo which collapsed during the wee hours of Thursday in Surfside, Florida. Intense search and rescue operations continue. At least 159 still missing.

Pride and beer. Guys are setting up tables outside Boundary Bay Brewery. A cute blond dude smiles and waves at me. That makes my day! 😁 I 💖💛💚💙💜 Bellingham beers and boys! 💋

5:25pm 82°F (H 82/L 62) Sunny/Dry Hum:50% Winds: light Baro: 29.96in Rain: 0.00in. The AC in the house is cranking. SyFy plays Ghostbusters. Pretty odd and funny with cannabis. 😆

donderdag 24 juni 2021 WA is getting hot. Just 57°F at 5 AM.

Ex-NRA President Duped Into Speaking At Event Staged By Parkland Parents’ Group. Watched a touching report on Rachel last night about Change the Ref. 3,044 students should have graduated this year but didn’t because they were killed by guns. Joaquin Oliver, 17, was shot and killed on Feb. 14, 2018, in a hallway outside his creative writing class at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. We shall remember #TheLostClass.

Picnic day! WTA to the Community Food Co-op to get one of their delicious avocado sandwiches. It's a 25-minute walk from the Co-op to Elizabeth Park. Lots of shade. Cool marine breezes waft by me.

Back to the house to watch a fun, crazy, ridiculous movie on Comet TV - Cowboys Vs. Dinosaurs with the lovely and talented Eric Roberts. After a mine explosion, dinosaurs emerge from the rubble. The monsters terrorize a small western town - Emigrant, MT. Several gunslingers try to Cowboy Up to defend their homes.  B'ham tops out at 75°F. Checking NOAA, it's 73°F at 5 PM. The colors on the map have changed a little since this morning. Will we be spared the extreme heat? I hope, but I doubt it.

woensdag 23 juni 2021 Welcome to Caui's kitchen.

Excessive Heat Watch! Ready or not, here it comes. Washington State is burgundy red. The latest forecast has us at 100°F on Sunday.

Wondering what you can do to prepare for hot weather NOW? #BeatTheHeat

Up to Trader Joe's to get some things. Spicy Chakri Mix! 😋

It's the origin story of the Chainsaw Murderer... Leatherface. Crazy aggressive Ike (played by James Bloor) starts a murder rampage in a lovely Texan diner. Just charming. 😖

This is a freeky movie with 21 kills. One kill every 4.19 minutes.

dinsdag 22 juni 2021 Slap Jim Jordan. YES! Rep. Jim Jordan’s name was trending Monday night on Twitter... and once again it was for all the wrong reasons. Jen Psaki continues to slay it!

Greetings from the jungles of Sweetbay Drive. First on my list of things to do: Water The Front Yard. Thirsty plants.

My first adventure on WTA public transit. Ride downtown on #540. Walk through the Lettered Streets. People First Bellingham. These issues would seem radical in Ohio, but initiatives are easy to pass in Washington State... and people are living in tents in Bellingham.

Me? Homeless? (Not yet.)

maandag 21 juni 2021 Party girl: My God! What is it? Watch MST3K: The Creeping Terror. A Best Brains Production.

Restless night's sleep. The cats were harassing me a little, and my back aches. Plus... ESPN Seattle: Will this Mariners homestand be where they turned the corner? We're excited how last night's game ended. KING 5 Sports: Mariners sweep Rays in 4-game set.

By Noon, it's already 80°F. It's been dry for the last 6 days, and no rain will fall for the next 10 days. It's really really summer now. Plenty of sunshine, warm temps and maybe drought. The American West is drying out. So, I guess that I need to keep watering the gardens... while chillin' to WZAK. (B'ham commericials?!?)

Found a glass from the Schlosswirtschaft Schwaige. Enjoying some chardonnay in my glass. Really! I'd love to be at the beautiful Nymphenburg Palace in Munich for a lovely meal.

zondag 20 juni 2021

zondag 20 juni 2021 Watch the Vice TV documentary HIV: The Neglected Pandemic. It's been 40 years of dealing with this pandemic, and there's still no cure or vaccine. While people were dying, the Reagan administration largely ignored the AIDS crisis.

Then... It's the 2004 American science fiction action film The Chronicles of Riddick. No one can stop our hero!

And... Transformers: Dark of the Moon. A spacecraft from Cybertron is discovered on the Moon. Will the Decepticons use its power source to control humanity? Optimus Prime: You are my friend Sam, you always will be... From here. the fight will be your own.

zaterdag 19 juni 2021

zaterdag 19 juni 2021 It's a cloudy, cool day in Bellingham (69°F). While the rest of the West Coast deals with fire and fury... My friends are frying in Kansas where it's 95°F.

vrijdag 18 juni 2021

vrijdag 18 juni 2021 This might be the worst thing that I've ever seen on Twitter... A body pillow of Mitch McConnell. 👀 The idea of its commercial viability defies belief.

Good morning, B'ham. It's another pretty day. 10:05am 66°F (H 69/L 54) Sunny/Dry Hum:55% Wind:W 6->9mph Baro: 30.1in Rain: 0.00in

Missing some severe thunderstorms in Ohio... NOT!!! High 84F.

Scorpions! Thanks to radiation, they grow into monsters! TCM plays The Black Scorpion. Prefer the MST3K version... with the lovely and talented Carlos Rivas in MST3K: 113. (But I love the salivating scorpion the most.)

donderdag 17 juni 2021

donderdag 17 juni 2021 Foo Fighters Re-Open California With Intimate Show for Vaccinated Fans. And... Rick Schroder joins anti-vax protesters outside first full capacity Foo Fighters concert.

WTSQ plays Foo Fighters' Big Me. Footos, the Fresh Fighter! The gardens seem happy to see me. Water the front yard. Lots of bikers on the trails enjoying the beautiful day. Bike ride to Haggen's. Sesame noodles and tofu salad!!! LUNCH!!!

A teen (Brenton Thwaites) discovers the dark truth about his community's secret past from an old man (Jeff Bridges), the sole keeper of their world's memories. Midday movie - The Giver.

Things are warming up in the Great Pacific Northwest. Can I stand it?

woensdag 16 juni 2021

woensdag 16 juni 2021 Midnight movie - The Day After Tomorrow. Brian, Laura and Sam notice that the birds are acting weird. They're flying away from impending doom. A favorite disaster flick.

Hotsy Totsy! 50 million Americans under Heat Warning! B'ham: 69°F.

Mid-day movie - MST3K: The Corpse Vanishes starring Bela Lugosi. Watch out for the Flame-Flower!?!
