a review......The Menu ...... two dimming stars "Don’t waste your time with this movie. The acting was quite good, but that’s about all this movie has going for it. The plot was quite lacking as the motivations for characters are never properly explained. You’re just expected to take everything at face value, no matter how bizarre or seemingly nonsensical they may be. A chef wants to murder his clientele and his employees because he’s insecure and has lost all his passion in his career in the culinary arts? Okay, that’s pretty interesting. Why not? Let’s see where this goes. A lack of clear motivation from the villain wouldn’t have been such a major issue if the story had an interesting plot. But the villain’s threats never go anywhere. It’s just 90 minutes of loosely connected violent scenes that don’t add anything to the story. So you’re left with a villain whose intentions you barely understand whose every action barely amounts to anything. Half of these scenes could’ve been removed from the movie entirely, and the “plot” would still remain intact." another review with five cheeseburgers......... The Menu is probably one the most strangest and yet extremely absurd thrillers that I've ever seen of all-time and yet seems like a film that I thought was good to enjoy. I'll even try to explain the plot like always with no spoilers so let's get right into it. The film begins with a bunch of rich and yet wealthy people who travel to a privately owned island where they visit a exclusive restaurant known as "Hawthorne" which is owned by a celebrity chef (Ralph Fiennes) who serves them exquisite and very delicate culinary delights only then to realize that it is a total death trap. What makes the film so genuinely inventive is that the first act begins as a nice cruise to an island and then in the second act it begins to build a whole bunch of anticipation and suspense on what happens next but most of the times there's some stuff in the movie that are totally unexpected to be shown which makes the film totally watchable and surprising at the same time enough for the entire audience. The combination of suspense and dark comedy is just top-notch and totally creative in the same kind of ways like how other directors such as Stanley Kubrick and Quentin Tarantino always like to interject and be more artsy with many of their own films. The cast is even another thing that makes the movie so great adding Anya Taylor-Joy, Nicholas Hoult and of course John Leguizamo. If your a big fan of thriller films and are in the mood to see one in theaters then I would say give The Menu a watch. We are unique souls.

I have POSITIVE with my "two married" .........ex-wives 1970s The first was a teacher, artist, farmer, bakery chef, and a hot body - both of us were too young (she also had a younger sister)...... there's a little story - private - and I still think about the *** Late 1980s thru 2010 The second (the last) wife she was my friend 1985-90 and I got my son - 1/26/1991. She loved her son.... she didn't really care for her husband at all. I think she bought my spear/sperm. I know I'm NOT going to find another one........ wife ((possibly my next life)) I already have four or five really good women - companion, friend, advocate. It's been very difficult because almost everybody have moved, died, and the looooong pandemic sooooo slow. It's hard to find females now because ALMOST everybody so nervous still on the variant Covid19. And the females are about that dating in internet.

The last time of my evening I had a redeem reward $141 for five years. I didn’t have the award. Did you leave? My package was six dollars. So I decided to get a dozen. So decided to get a dozen. That’s my rash relaxin’ for a month. It was $70 for 120. I bought the Jan relaxing THC Medicine. I still not get wrecked. I just have the normal high. Not the old high addictive drugs. Now I have the 120 gummies for the month. Part of my medicine was incredibly cheap - woohoo
I did check all the dozen packages to the freezer - I actually had 15 packages - a gift or a misteak - $.50 gummies

There's tons of weather in California - mud slides, horrible heavy traffic, bald tires with bald drivers, rubber boots, yellow rain gear, Pancho aka poncho, pith hats etc etc...... I'm lucky I have a car/truck - Honda Element/Ridgeline (the chassis is equal)
This one is a good story……………….. The Bolinas Liquor Market - I get my SF newspaper there (with bills/coins)but today I did one on my VISA card and it was on $91. It’s good that I saw my Bank of America on the website………… here’s one with a card - (hustler, scam, swindle ) This is like that other Gas&Shop station in San Anselmo - different hustler…….. I told that person (loudly) that I need the money $88.25…… I finally got it….$88.25 You make sure you don’t have anything with debit/credit cards so simple with green bills or coins - Convenience Owner Stores (3rd world with no truth)"
I actually enjoy most of my cardio/doctors from India and Mexico and Guatemala - and of course some New Yankees -
A few docs - I can't remember what they talk about anything if they're from the southern crackers with marbles in their mouths....
((((Shannon has a good diction)))

Good morning musicians
There’s a lot going on
Anxiety comes from many sources, emotional, physical, life events, external, internal. The No. CA is supposed to be experiencing a lot of rain and possible flooding over the little while. So there may be a lot of stress and anxiety around as well.
Enjoy your days

AULD LANG SYNE by R Burns
Should auld acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot And the days of auld lang syne? For auld lang syne, my dear For auld lang syne We'll drink a cup of kindness yet For the sake of auld lang syne And surely you will buy your cup And surely I'll buy mine! We'll take a cup of kindness yet For the sake of auld lang syne We two have paddled in the stream From morning sun till night The seas between us Lord and swell Since the days of auld lang syne For old acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind Should old acquaintance be forgot For the sake of auld lang syne? For old acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind Should old acquaintance be forgot In the days of auld lang syne? For auld lang syne, my dear For auld lang syne We'll drink a cup of kindness yet For the sake of auld lang syne

It's always a day - New Year Eve - I went to a coffee place with my friends and to some music - Treble Makers Band. There's another band Zyedco Flames Rancho Nicasio Marin county - for 20 minutes where I live but I don't think I'm going to do it because there's already too many people drunk on the roads.
I went outside the planet to see how bad….. it wasn’t good..... There were tons of bags with alcohol….. too many drunkards late afternoon New Year Eve’s idiots…….
I've got plenty of movies and I've got chicken soup, chocolate and gummies (not a rubberized woman - in odd internet company)
You should get a visual picture in your mind (roaring fireplace, cushy chair/ottoman, farting dog, swirly brandy, silent scantily woman, cigar etc etc)

I was very stupid and young.... I am old and a smidge stupid and has a smidge wisdom.... but my humor is the same thing ..... A lot of people doesn't understand my humor.
I have a couple of ex-wives - one of them is sorta ice queen and black spider.... she found him another Robert and he died and she got his money.....
My first ex-wife she was a nice person like a farmer girl... We were both incredibly in love but we were couldn't figure it out because we were very young - early 20s

I’ve been sick a smidge bit and it sounds like a lot of people is a little tiredness fatigued wintry colds
Here’s some of the things that’s happening with me - My Mint Mobile company is simply in ATT networking. It’s mostly on the Internet, & robots. They don’t even have an office. It was/is a mess . I can’t tell you the whole story, but it’s incredibly cheap. $27/mo. I will keep it. The Mint screwed up my bank account totally confused. Mint put my payment in the wrong spot, and I didn’t have any money in my bank. (I was in minus) so a friend gave me a little bit money just for a little while and of course I have to give it back.
Well, that’s one of those this world especially the Internet, social media etc.
So now it’s time for some classical music. It’ll either on my computer or with my fingers fortepiano
