Last evening saw me make the Fraser Highway hike to the Green Timbers Liquor Store (Google Map) where I bought a further 1½ dozen cans of Cariboo Malt, tipping from $33 and something to $35 even.
I am still unclear on just what the round trip distance is. The Fraser Highway at my end commences at King George Boulevard, and that intersection is ─ as a car drives ─ ¾ of a mile from where I live.
My suspicion is that the round trip hike is at best about four miles.
Anyway, I resisted drinking one of the beers on my way back home, and I actually arrived here to find that my younger brother had yet to show up following his daily drinking. However, as I was changing clothes upstairs in my bedroom, I heard him in the driveway, but I still got possession of the T.V. and was thus set up to put our Android TV Box to use.
When he had finally joined me, I led us off with A Touch of Frost ─ episode one "Line of Fire (Part One)" of season or series seven. Unfortunately the source link I used failed into the 69-minute mark, and I could not get any others to accept play at that point.
I see now that the final very few minutes can be watched at this link at UpMovies.net ─ where part 2 is evidently tacked onto the player to make an extra long nearly 2½-hour episode; or at this link at OK.ru where the episode is listed as running 1:14:28.
I will arrange that we watch the final less than five minutes tomorrow morning. I won't be sitting up this evening, for I intend a wee a.m. walk and hope to be getting up at 1:30 a.m. to leisurely ready for it.
Following the failure to finish the episode last evening, I tuned in another short movie in the old Edgar Wallace Mysteries series: Act of Murder from September 1964. My drunken, dense brother never had the wits to be aware that the movie was winding up, and in his obtuse oblivion he got up and wandered off for a few minutes, entirely missing out on the sad conclusion.
He showed no interest in knowing what happened, so I certainly was not going to volunteer any such information ─ such was his limited interest or investment in the feature.
You can watch Act of Murder at this link at OK.ru, if you are so inclined.
One thing about the movie that has me perplexed is just who it was that poisoned the chickens, the lapdog, and the caged bird.
Whatever.
Thereafter, we just watched some random YouTube videos via the SmartTube app downloaded into our Android TV Box.
My brother was to sensibly get to bed, but I again could not resist torturing myself until well past 5 a.m. ─ maybe even after 5:30 a.m. ─ before at last breaking free of my addiction and getting to bed.
I was not to later waken enough to care to be checking the time until long past 9 a.m., but fortunately my brother had not yet risen despite some concern I had.
And so I had possession of the T.V. under control of our Android TV Box, and when he joined me well past 10 a.m. I led us off with a 29-minute (29:05) video published early today at Rumble's AKStraightSpeaks channel: The Magic of Mushrooms - Rebuilding Hope in the Shuswap.
Eight months on, how are things in the Shuswap after the fires?
I speak with Brenda Jackson who was in the thick of things.

My brother and I had watched the show from last Summer.
There was only time for one further video; and due to its length, and the fact that my brother cannot stand any longer Christopher James's endless rants and threats of the hangings he's going to see to once he is put in charge of a Canadian people's court, my brother bowed out just ahead of noon with about half the video remaining ─ and I had skipped through some of the early stuff.
Published April 21, the video is listed at just topping two hours and was published on Rumble's A Warrior Calls channel: Peace Will Never Happen Without Justice / Global Solution Shown Here.
It was a typical solo Christopher James video.
I had my day's first meal while sitting through the remainder of the video, finally closing it down when it seemed that Christopher was at last getting set to take his leave.
No sunshine today, by the way. We had some rain that likely began overnight, but the afternoon seems to have been without.
I never sought my early afternoon nap until possibly after 2:30 p.m. because I slipped back into the dance of addiction, but again I broke loose. I believe that is at least the sixth time in three days.
I might have to seek some genuine human contact to at least keep myself from letting my imagination go where it goes.
I think that I am going to watch a Christmas movie and have some drinks this early evening while I have the house to myself. It's a bath day, and I have that yet to do that, but I am going to hold off until after the movie.
With that stated, I will take a break here.
And now I'm briefly back, having enjoyed some supper and two cans of Cariboo Malt while watching 2017's Miracle Christmas Ornaments.
If interested, you can watch the movie at this link at HuraMovies.to.
Initially while the alcohol was working its early magic, I was strongly drawn into the movie emotionally, and found lead actress Jessica Lowndes to be quite fetching. I have seen her before in what was likely some other Christmas movie that I no longer recall. I only know that I have seen her before because I see that her name pops up in this blog's "labels" or key words.
After some supper along with the two beers, I sort of numbed out and found myself only interested in the movie, and not experiencing any demonstration of emotion as in tear-letting and crying to God.
Of course contributing to that removal or distancing was the arrival home of my eldest stepson. Still, it is true that I did grow benumbed.
A pleasant enough movie though, for sure.
I thereafter had my bath. It is now a little after 9:30 p.m., so I am going to go silent now and publish this post and soon get to bed.
