The 2nd batch of horror movies that I've watched in October; these are movies that I've either never seen before or have only watched once: October 11th: "Altered States" (1980). Oh, this movie went deeeep into the 'weird' side of the Horror spectrum. A psychologist starts experimenting with the human consciousness... and Central American herbs. … Continue reading Spooky Movie Month, Pt. 3: October 11-21
‘Derby’ Thoughts
Well, not specifically thoughts on the Kentucky Derby, which happens on Saturday. These are thoughts that I had to put to "paper", so to speak. I have two extra days off, due to the Derby: the city buses take a massive detour away from Churchill Downs, so what would normally be a 25-30 minute trip … Continue reading ‘Derby’ Thoughts

Welcome to 2022!
It's a new year! It's now up to me to see how the early weeks of 2022 go. One thing I'm going to do differently, compared to past years: I'm not making Resolutions, "Wish Lists", or anything similar, other than a Reading Challenge for Goodreads (I want to read/listen to more than 20 books in … Continue reading Welcome to 2022!
Some Things I Don’t Understand
I'm not too old to get some new knowledge, even at 42 years young. I don't understand: why drinking 1 cup of coffee (creamer and some sugar) is fine; if I have a 2nd cup, I get extremely sleepy.

There about about 4,900 confirmed cases in the U.S., 25 cases in Kentucky. There have been reactions that spread the entire spectrum, from: 1) "This is overblown … Continue reading COVID-19
