It was around 8:45 p.m. yesterday evening when I left on my five-mile+ walk. I was unable to stop for some exercise early into the venture at the usual elementary school playground because as I was approaching, I noticed in the gloom someone preceding me there who had a large dog.
As it was to happen, there was then a lot of big-dog barking and a few people yelling, so apparently someone else was already in the area ─ maybe they also had a dog, or else the one I saw was being threatening to whomever was already there.
The only other experience I had of note was to occur along the entire stretch of 100th Avenue from just before 144th Street to just past the parking lot at Green Timbers Access Road (Google Map).
The area is forested, and reportedly filming was being done for a night scene in an upcoming episode of the second season of the T.V. series Fire Country. The only action I saw was a black leather-clad rather slim motorcyclist blast off and speed along a short stretch of the highway.
I would not be surprised if there were as many as a hundred people spread out along that portion of 100th Avenue that I identified, and of course it was blocked off to traffic. Regular 100th Avenue traffic was being detoured to 144th Street, and at the other end the normal 100th Avenue traffic was blocked entirely from access at 148th Street.
I suppose not everyone gathered along there was part of the filming production, for no doubt there were police and maybe even spectators.
If I take on another walk this evening and find filming still going on, then I will resort to forest trails to bypass the congestion, finally putting my Titan baton flashlight to work. I won't go as far down as the lake area, so hopefully I would not be intruding on any of the forest coyotes.
Due to the delay I experienced last evening, it was around 10:40 p.m. at earliest by the time I was back home, but my younger brother was not yet home. As a result, I got possession of the T.V. And as I expected with him showing up so late, he was drunk.
Using our Android TV Box, I started to play an episode of one of the series that we follow in common, but he had already passed out during the opening credits so I tuned out of it. Instead, I decided to play an episode of Supergirl, a series I now follow on my own. This time, it was season six's episode 17 ("I Believe in a Thing Called Love").
I am so fed up with all of the self-righteousness on that series that I am looking forward to its termination. The capper in this episode was when the lesbian love between characters Alex and Kelly was exemplified as the greatest love on planet Earth ─ what effing rot!
After the episode, I just played random YouTube videos.
Meanwhile, I cannot even estimate how many times my brother came in and back out of consciousness, often snoring, sometimes hacking on his own slobber, and once even speaking incoherently while clearly shut-eyed and oblivious.
However, he never finally called it a night until just about 2 a.m. And since I had some things to do here at my computer before getting to bed, it was 3 a.m. before I did finally retire.
Yet this morning I was awake again and unable to easily find sleep around 6:30 a.m., if not even earlier, so I gave up trying and rose.
My brother emerged from his bedroom around 8:15 a.m.
At 9 a.m. I was invited to once again activate our Android TV Box, so I led us off with a 17½-minute (17:39) addition of just today to Rumble's AKStraightSpeaks channel: Dishing with TNT Radio Live!!
I recently did two stints on TNT Radio Live. There's a link below to (audio only) with Jason Olbourne. We talked about Global News, Pierre Pollievre and Epstein. A friend of mine uploaded to his channel and I'm sharing here:

Next was an 11-minute (10:58) addition of yesterday to YouTube's Redacted channel: "I don't recall" Dr. Fauci SUDDENLY can't remember anything | Redacted w Natali & Clayton Morris.
Dr. Anthony Fauci remembers very little about the pandemic. He testified in a closed-door session with Congress on Monday and reportedly answered “I don’t recall” or “I don’t remember” over 100 times. Funny because the rest of us recall a lot about the pandemic, right? Fauci was testified to the U.S. House of Representatives Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. He was accompanied by two personal lawyers and two government (taxpayer funded) lawyers. He was asked about mask mandates, lockdowns and pre-pandemic research that may have led to the creation of the Covid-19 virus. Dr. Fauci’s testimony will continue today in private but he will reportedly testify again publicly at a future date.
Thereafter I tuned in an old episode of The Avengers, finding it with the Stremio app that I have downloaded into our Android TV Box. This time it was episode eight ("Death of a Great Dane") of season or series two.
My brother had to break from the episode to go around 10:10 a.m. and pick up his girlfriend Bev two miles away to drive her to work, so I paused the show until his return. I used the interim to have some exercise out in the backyard tool shed: four and then two pull-ups in a first two sets; three chin-ups in both of a middle two sets; and two pull-ups between two bars in a final two sets, with the very last pull-up held for a 20-count.
I also did 15 slow full-range push-ups on the wooden floor.
We were to watch two further videos, leading off with an addition today to Rumble's mariazeee channel: COVID-19 Royal Commission in Australia: On the People's Terms.
Maria Zeee is joined by Dr. Duncan Syme, Julian Gillespie, and Professor Ian Brighthope to discuss The People's Terms of Reference for a COVID-19 Royal Commission.
Join with leading Australian academics, lawyers, scientists, and doctors by signing proposed Terms of Reference for a COVID-19 Royal Commission below:

The final video was 13 minutes, and added on January 8 to Rumble's Bonobo3D channel: STOP SOGI 123 - Recall Rachna Singh.
On Saturday, January 6th concerned citizens, parents, teachers, and members of Gays Against Groomers demonstrated to bring awareness to the public, of the sexualization and intentional confusion of children in Canadian schools with the SOGI 123 indoctrination program. The January 6th demonstration in Surrey, B.C., was part of the campaign to recall Rachna Singh, British Columbia's Minister of Education and Child Care.

When this final video was done, my brother sought his bed rest; I had a meal and was to my own bed when he emerged and left for the day to socialize.
I did my best to have a very long nap, but even though I had a fabulous science fiction dream that I considered recording details of (I did not, and am now forgetting those details), I rose feeling less than restored. Maybe a bit too much eyestrain from screen use?
I am also having some pain in swallowing, but I suspect that it is due to wolfing excessive amounts of scalding coffee. I am going to have to force myself to ensure the fluid is not quite so hot before swallowing.
My wife texted me in the latter afternoon and said that she was working downtown (Vancouver) and would be home later this evening.
I want to mention experiencing some surprise quite late yesterday morning when I weighed myself while stripped naked, and prior to eating anything except coffee ─ at most, I was 179 pounds.
I am going to now bring this post to a close, having drank a can of Cariboo Malt (8% alcohol) and a shot of Kraken Black Spcied Rum (47% alcohol) whilst watching an episode of Castle Rock ─ episode five ("The Laughing Place") of season two.
This was the best episode of the entire sick series, I feel. Throughout most of it, I strongly sympathized with the lead mental noodle played by actress Lizzy Kaplan, but as soon as her mother died in the attempt to kill both of them by driving into a river, and Lizzy's ADHD character became clearly insane, I lost all appeal for the idiot.
Anyway, I am going to begin readying for that evening walk, and the bit of alcohol has revived me enormously ─ I have not felt this hale the entire day.
Note that I learned a little earlier that my youngest stepson has been so ill the past couple of days that ─ even though he works from home via his computer ─ he has booked off sick. I thought that he has been getting to bed unusually early the past night or two.
Might that be why my throat is amiss? Personally, I do not think so ─ it feels more raw from practical scalding.
And now my wife has shown up as I was giving the post a proofread. It is not yet 9 p.m., but I still hope to get away on that walk.
