Last evening's television viewing with my younger brother ─ once he was home from his daily socializing ─ included an episode each of Big Little Lies (he was unconscious for much of the episode), A Touch of Frost, and Baddiel's Syndrome. That latter series is presently available in full on YouTube at this link.
This evening I plan to get out for a walk ─ I plan to leave at 8 p.m. or soon thereafter, for I want it to be dark. I will probably make an ATM withdrawal to be comfortable about the grocery shopping I intend to do on the return leg of my five-mile (minimum) walk.
I would leave an hour later than that, but the store closes at 10 p.m. and is maybe just under a mile from here. I certainly do not care to be hauling my purchases for four miles as a result of doing my shopping early into my walk ─ although doing so would definitely allow me to be leaving home at 9 p.m., the price in the physical challenge of carrying groceries for such a distance is not something I seek.
So I have no option but to be leaving here early enough to walk four miles first and then do the shopping, carrying home my groceries for that final mile.
Consequently, I will be watching less T.V. thereafter than was so last evening.
The day began as a mix of Sun and cloud, but the afternoon was primarily sunny with a bit of a chilly breeze that I did not appreciate coming through my upper-floor bedroom window ─ I had to close it in order to work here at the computer that I keep in my bedroom.
My brother and I watched some videos this morning on T.V. (via our Android TV Box). Unfortunately I am unable to link to two of the three videos we watched because they were on the Rumble platform, and it is apparently offline right now ─ I am unable to link to them.
The third video was uploaded on March 29 to BitChute's Mercola channel and was essentially an hour long: Strategy For Taking Back Organics - Interview with Ronnie Cummins.
I recently spoke with Ronnie Cummins, cofounder and international director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA), in honor of Regenerative Food and Farming Week. OCA is one of the philanthropic organizations that we support, and Cummins shared some exciting updates in the field of organic and biodynamic agriculture.
I interviewed Ronnie Cummins, cofounder and international director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA), in honor of Regenerative Food and Farming Week.
One of OCA’s major endeavors is the Billion Agave Project, an ecosystem-regeneration strategy being used by Mexican farms to turn agave into inexpensive animal feed.
While small farms around the globe are using organic methods to grow food, they’re not getting credit for the truly sustainable farming methods they’re embracing because they’re not certified.
OCA’s No. 1 project is to replace “the bogus carbon credits” with a system that measures the ecosystem services that farmers are providing, so they can be paid for these beneficial services along with the food they provide.
OCA and their collaborators are working on a cellphone app that will streamline the organic certification process, enable farmers to apply to be certified organic and demonstrate higher levels of regenerative practices.
The interviewer was of course Dr. Joseph Mercola.
Ahh! Rumble is back online!
Okay, then ─ at 22 minutes, the first video we watched was uploaded on June 30 (2022) to Rumble's The Why Files channel: The Circleville Letters Mystery | Why can't we solve this?
MYSTERY OF THE CIRCLEVILLE LETTERS
We all keep secrets.
For most of us, these are nothing more than minor embarrassing details about ourselves. But some of us have dark secrets which, if discovered, could destroy lives.
For years, the residents of Circleville, Ohio, received bizarre, threatening letters; from someone who somehow knew every salacious detail of their personal lives.
The letters cost people their jobs, their marriages, their freedom, and sometimes, their lives.
Over a thousand letters were sent over *20 years*.
Yet somehow, whoever wrote them got away with it. Or did they?
Officially this case is closed. But for decades, many people felt that the real culprit is still at large.
Let's find out why.
Definitely interesting.
The second video was 1½ hours (1:33:19) long, and was the next in a series that my brother and I have slowly been working our way through: Cult Of The Medics - Chapter 4: ORIGINS OF EVIL.
Chapter Four delves into the nature/origins of evil, the dark history of human sacrifice, human experimentation, bizarre cult rituals, mind control/crowd control, the one vs the many, the psychic war on consciousness, the warrior path.
It is a good series.
It brought us to at least 12:40 p.m., so my brother retired to his bedroom for some rest before leaving early in the afternoon for the day to socialize once again. I had not yet sought my early afternoon nap when he left.
Incidentally, he had to leave this morning to pick up his girlfriend Bev at 10 a.m. to drive her to work, so I used that opportunity for six sets of pull-ups and chin-ups out in the backyard tool shed ─ first weighing in at 196 pounds fully-clothed and wearing a pair of runners.
I actually did seven sets because I failed to have it within me to push myself to attain three repetitions in the third set, which was the first of two sets of chin-ups that I normally do ─ so I added a set of them in atonement.
I hit four repetitions in the first set of pull-ups, then three repetitions in the second set of same; thereafter I did two repetitions in each of the next five sets which were three sets of chin-ups and two sets of pull-ups between two bars (as opposed to just pulling myself up on one bar).
Boring to read about, I am sure.
In other news, my wife finally arrived in Thailand today after flying out of Rome yesterday where she had been for just over two months visiting a sister of hers who lives there.
Via Facebook Messenger, she sent me this text at 6:45 a.m. this morning (Pacific Time Zone):
Hi, I’m home with my mom 👵
My wife hails from Thailand, so she wanted to go back to visit her mother and other family and friends in her Isaan home village ─ Isaan is otherwise known as Northeast Thailand and is the largest region of the kingdom.
I am still attempting to post her final Rome photos, so I shall present a dozen that she uploaded to her Facebook account at 9:49 a.m. (Pacific Time Zone) this past Saturday, April 1, 2023. That would have been 5:49 p.m. local Rome time.
I have no clear idea where in Rome she was, but I did locate two bas relief images (here and here) that seem to me to be identical works that are included in the second and third photos in my wife's collection below.
Reportedly, the art is a bas relief located at or in the Basilica of Saint Sylvester the First (San Silvestro in Capite) in Rome, Italy.
That being so, then I expect that most of the photos may have been taken at that location:
And here is a 25-second video clip that she took while walking that street in the final two photos:
It is already just after 7 p.m. ─ I have to quit this post and quickly ready for my trip, and then rest my overtaxed eyes ere I have to leave.
