I finally remembered about what I was going to write yesterday! On Wednesday night I watched the second half of “The Thursday Murder Club”. As a fan of the books, albeit one who can never remember all of the plot details, I thought the movie adaptation was good, but a little lackluster. Apparently one of the character’s plot line was altered significantly from the book, and that raised the hackles of many commenters.
My monthly issue of Games magazine arrived in the mail yesterday. The latest issue felt thin, and it was only 48 pages. When I went back to the last four issues I had at hand, each had approximately 80 pages. This doesn’t bode well for the magazine’s future, nor my continued financial support.
Wordle: four, my starter was OWLET
I’m not pleased that today’s schedule has been compromised by the USPS delivering a package. I will be out of town ONE day this week, and that is the day they will deliver this package. Though not expensive, it is mushroom spawn, so I want to bring it inside after delivery.
Oh well, worst case scenario is that I leave and gamble that the package won’t get stolen, nor that the contents ruined overnight.
A big owl just swooped through WLF, unfortunately with empty talons.
Wordle in 4.
Chores after work last night. I finally bought a decent gas powered weed whacker and after replacing the head with one that uses little plastic blades, it’s a pleasure to run. reasonably quiet and starts every time. Don’t but cheap tools, kids.
Off for the regular check in with the cardiologist. Nothing much to report, so maybe he’ll drop some of the blood thinners. More later.
Nothing else of note.

CNBC: Tim Cook: “Apple iPhone Air. Hold it. It’s like holding the future in your hand!”

After seeing the pic, I think the 17 Air looks kinda weird.
It looks top heavy, like a poorly designed remote control. That said, I hope that it sells like hotcakes! 🙂
I also find it funny that Apple now calls what we used to call the “camera hump”, the “camera plateau”. Lol
It’s a real thing! Kevin has the 16 Pro Max whatever and the thing is practically lopsided.
I had to work late so by the time I got home and picked up Kevin and Finn, went to Fontaine’s, and Finn ate his food (slowly), it was his bedtime when we got home. There was no baseball anyway.
While I use my iPad almost exclusively for my “PC”, I’m counting the days until I can offload my bank iphone. Never got that bug and I’m glad.
iPhones are great, which is why Google/Samsung copied them, and Android looked identical to iOS when it was released. Then Android became great, which is why Apple copied some features into iOS.
I’ve always been a huge fan of the unified ecosystem between my iPhone/iPad/Mac/AppleWatch/AppleTV.
Because I don’t follow the news, I just learned that “Flo” from “Alice” died a couple of days ago, she was 88.
Woohoo. Not only has the mail been delivered, I’m told my AirBnB is available whenever I arrive today. Decided to save myself some money and eat lunch at home before departing.
To answer the question: Athens, GA
Huh, all of that ranting today for nothing. Better luck next time. 😉 😉 😉
Cardiologist says everything looks great, see you in a year. As expected. Asked about dropping any meds and he said hell no. This is your life, everything is good, so don’t screw with it.
That’s great, Steve!
Nice! And the doc is right, don’t mess with success!
Yeah, you want to keep living to collect all that pension money!
Finally Wordled – took me 4
