maandag 14 oktober 2019 Midnight weird 1984 retro science fiction movie: The Brother from Another Planet.

I'm still buzzed about the Seahawks win! N'Sync, turnovers, and 3 Wilson touchdowns give the Seahawks a win over the Browns. Can't hold us! Can we go back, this is the moment. Tonight is the night, we'll fight till it's over. So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us. Like the ceiling can't hold us... Turn on Stephanie Miller. New Day, Same $h!T... Destroy our State Department, destroy our air, water, destroy our relationship with our allies, destroy our credibility. Trump is getting us into more trouble. Joel Stein is a guest for the 3rd hour. Sorry Joel. You're wrong & Stephanie is right. #ImpeachTrumpNow As stated in the Constitution, it is the legal & moral obligation of a co-equal branch, Congress to hold the Executive Branch accountable for high crimes & misdemeanors. House is the Grand Jury. Senate holds the trial.

Aliens from outer space have landed in Oberlin for Halloween.

What a blast to hear New Order's 1983 hit Blue Monday on Riverdale!

I'm watching the Riverdale series. This town has a lot of dark secrets. Can Archie Andrews cope with all of it? Run, boy run!

The Seahawks in action against the Browns. What did I miss in the first quarter. Craziness! The Seahawks were 6-20 down and are now winning 25-20. Go on the boys! #GoHawks

zaterdag 12 oktober 2019 Cyborg slavers, dinosaur trackers, and a kickboxing space cadet played by Daniel Bernhardt... Welcome to the nightmare-fueled world of Future War (MST3K).

Midnight movie - Moulin Rouge! It's 1900 in Paris's 18th... La Belle Époque. It tells the story of a young English poet/writer, Christian (Ewan McGregor), who falls in love with the star of the Moulin Rouge, cabaret actress and courtesan Satine (Nicole Kidman).

It's a chilly day. It started off at 38°F, but the sun warms things up to 52°F eventually. It's still below normal. Lots of bike riding. I'm curious. Is the Oberlin Golf Club closed? Nobody is playing golf.

I bump into a student on Main Street wearing an M's cap. (His was nicer than mine.) I had to talk to him. "Are you from Seattle?" Him: "Born there! I lived in Magnolia." Me: "I used to live on First Hill." I had a flashback to those good old days.

Oberlin College is on News 5! Report: Art display at Oberlin College educates community about mental health.

Down to the park to read my book No Is Not Enough. Enjoying another lovely day... me and the students. Just rest on the grass and look into the blue sky. Breezes knock down acorns.

Master of the Universe - Trump heads to Louisiana for a rally. I'm not watching. Resist this moron, Lake Charles!

About 50 or so people lined up outside the arena for the President’s rally in Lake Charles.

Let's watch the real Master of the Universe - Dolph Lundgren.

Turn on Stephanie Miller. She seems a little giddy about the headlines in the Huffington Post - Trump Escalates Attacks On Fox News After Impeachment Poll. Of course, he starts a Twitter storm.

KUOW - Seattle not among 30 cities hailed for curbing carbon. Here’s why... I know why. People won't give up driving their polluting cars.

Down to the OPL to check out a book - No Is Not Enough: Resisting Trump's Shock Politics and Winning the World We Need.

At the library, I discover in Sky & Telescope, to my astonishment, that the Milky Way galaxy is warped and twisted.

Democracy Now - Julián Castro Slams Trump’s “Deranged” Immigration Policies After Escorting Asylum Seekers to Border. Presidential candidate Julián Castro escorted asylum seekers, most of whom are LGBTQ or disabled, to the border this week to highlight the "desperate circumstances" many face while waiting in Mexico. “They told me ... that they don't have clean water to drink, that a lot of the kids there are sick." That's Emilio Sakraya (R).

这是奥伯林的另一个美好的一天。It was another wonderful day for Oberlin. It is absolutely gorgeous, especially in the fall.

The Bridge - Oberlin's Community Technology Center - is open to the public free of charge for computer use and assistance with technology. They have some iMacs in there.

While wandering around, I turn on a KUOW podcast - Climate change is real. What role do you play? Tatiana Schlossberg spoke at the University Bookstore to explain the wonky details of Climate Change.

dinsdag 8 oktober 2019 Washington DC (Georgetown). The year 2054. Midnight movie - Minority Report.

We're in a national crisis. As reported by the Washington Post, a new Quinnipiac University poll released shows that support for impeaching Trump and removing him from office has grown from 37 percent of registered voters to 47 percent in the latest survey. Finally, it appears that the nation is coming around to the realization that Trump has abused his power and must be held accountable. NY Times: Impeachment barrels on. Nancy Pelosi: Our tone must be prayerful, respectful, solemn, worthy of the Constitution.

It's a beautiful day in Oberlin, and Trump can't spoil it.

It's sunny and 70°F. Everyone seems to be outside to enjoy the sunshine. I wander from park to park, from Main Street to the OC.

At Wilder Hall, people hit me up for my signature on a petition. I'm an Ohio voter! Protect Ohio Clean Energy Jobs.

Rising country star Baylee Littrell performs new single Boxes. Only 16 years old and very talented. He's cute, and I like the song. Good luck on the tour. Congrats on the new album.
