Does the future need help, or is the present in danger? Let's watch MST3K: Terror from the Year 5000 and find out.
Joy Reid Makes Nightmare Prediction About Donald Trump For Halloween. 2024 is just around the corner. The possibility is very real that Donald Trump will be president again. This country is dumb enough to do it again. They were dumb enough once when it was obvious when it would be a disaster, and they are clearly eager to do it again. Trump again in 2024 is a very scary, scary thing.

vrijdag 29 oktober 2021 A taste of Star Trek: Prodigy. It's not just for kids! Star Trek: Prodigy Is for the Kids—and Kids at Heart. Dazzling animation. This young space hero is Dal.
Midnight movie - voted #1 on 'The 50 Funniest Comedies Ever' poll - Airplane! Ted Striker: It was a rough place - the seediest dive on the wharf. Populated with every reject and cutthroat from Bombay to Calcutta. It's worse than Detroit. I love the Stayin' Alive scene!
CNN correspondent Josh Campbell has been covering the story about the fatal shooting on 'Rust' in Santa Fe. He spends time hanging out with pups undergoing special 'Comfort Dogs' training. You're a good guy Josh Campbell! Being with these beautiful dogs must nourish the soul.
Rainy day. Playing with Google Maps to find the apartment in Ottawa where Gene and I lived. Things must have changed a lot in 45 years. The closest place to 98 rue Clarence is Cornerstone Bar and Grill.
Oberlin weather: 56°F, 92% precip.  Rain likely for the next several hours. It is raining. It is raining. On my head. On my head.
Sci-fi Friday!!! Watch the 1981 BBC TV series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Ford Prefect: How would you react if I said that I'm not from Guildford at all, but from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse? Betelgeuse... Mostly harmless?

donderdag 28 oktober 2021 Young astronomer David Maclean is watching the skies from his bedroom window. To his amazement, he witnesses a flying saucer crash in his back yard. His father goes to investigate, but comes back changed. Midnight movie - the 1953 cult sci-fi film - Invaders from Mars.
Turn on Stephanie Miller. Oh! Dressing up for Halloween. Travis Bone is Captain America. Hal Sparks is the Winter Soldier.
The Moderna booster shot did a number on me (again). Feeling low-energy and a little sick. Watch Dune for the second time. TimothΓ©e Chalamet - shirtless. Happy to see him shirtless. Wondering if he's contractually obligated to go shirtless in his movies. He's shirtless and naked in The French Dispatch as well...  Zeffirelli.

Turn on KING 5 News. Coldplay at Climate Pledge Arena concert last night. Chris Martin invited Patrick on stage. The little Coldplay fan turned 6 and received an incredible gift.
This tune is running continually through my brain this morning. America started the war on terrorism twenty years ago. It wound up at war with itself. Reign of Terror shows how the nation went down that road to hell. You've never read a book like it -Tim Weiner. Book - Reign of Terror: How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump by Spencer Ackerman. Thanks Oberlin Public Library for loaning this to me. Some light reading on a pretty Fall day. 😐
Who lives alone? ME! ME! The Atlantic: Living Alone In The U.S. Is Harder Than It Should Be. About 36 million Americans live alone.

COVID kills more police than gunfire since pandemic began.
Trevor Noah addresses the vaccine mandate rebellion among police and fire depts. Why aren't police officers expected to comply with the vaccination mandate? Of all the people who get in your face, a cop is up close and extremely personal. Two years ago on this day, I was hospitalized with Pulmanary Embolisms. The symptoms are terrifying. I never coughed up blood, but my heart was pounding like a jackhammer. I couldn't breathe. I was turning gray.

zondag 17 oktober 2021 Teen Wolf (season 5). Meet the crazy trio of scientists called the Dread Doctors. Poor Beacon Hills. 😟
Mars is the fourth planet of the Solar SystΠ΅m. It is called The Mightiest of Planets. A wealthy area known as Mars Vegas is also located on this planet. Mars' sky is yellow instead of red. If it were red it would clash with Fry's hair. Watch Futurama: Where the Buggalo Roam.
Watch one of the best muscle-bound Italian epics: Taur The Mighty! Syros - the true king of EkΓ­sos - begs the mighty warrior Taur to be released from bondage and to help him win back his kingdom.
Mostly cloudy day at 52°F. During my wanderings around Oberlin, I discover that the Slow Train Cafe has re-opened after extensive renovations. As popular and busy as ever! On a chilly day like this, I prefer some warm sake when I get home.

Step back in time... Captain Kirk took me to space in 1966. I was only 10-years-old. William Shatner goes to space on Blue Origin mission.
