Fall Back and Callback

My 6 a.m. cellphone alarm roused me for the second straight day, but I felt a little improved over yesterday.

Even so, when I went forth around 7:30 a.m. for some exercise out in the backyard tool shed, a single repetition in each of the six sets of pull-ups and chin-ups was all the painfully stiffened muscles in my upper arms cared to withstand.

Then I spent some time with the squats designed to challenge my damned right leg's knee and quadriceps muscles.

The moist, chill morning air was delightful ─ well above the freezing point after several mornings of more frigid temperatures. But I sure miss being able to just up and go for long walks now that I am badly lame.

Back in the house, I put together a first meal of my day of fare that was entirely provided by my wife, and I brought that upstairs to eat here at my bedside computer.

I never heard my wife come home last night, so I am fully confident that she got held back by co-workers celebrating her official birthday (she had enjoyed at least two pre-birthday celebrations, popular girl that she is).

But she had a full workday today, emerging from her bedroom just after 9:40 a.m. to shower and ready, and was away on her rather long drive 20 or so minutes later.

My younger brother emerged from his bedroom for the morning well past 8 a.m., and I joined him no earlier than 9:10 a.m. for some morning T.V.

At his invitation for me to commence operation of our old T95Q Android 9 TV Box, I led off with a 10-minute (10:33) video uploaded earlier today to YouTube's AnitaK channel: “Fall Back !" Leaked Audio of El Mencho’s Recorded Threat to Mexican Police.

In this video, I break down leaked audio allegedly involving Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as El Mencho, where he appears to order police to back off — and they comply.

The recording raises serious questions about corruption, influence, and who really holds power in parts of Mexico. I also discuss comments from Donald Trump, who recently suggested that Mexico’s president Claudia Sheinbaum appeared afraid when addressing cartel violence and U.S. pressure.

We were to have time for just one further video, and my brother reluctantly left with much of it remaining because he had to ready shortly after 10:30 a.m. for a later noon appointment he had with the banker currently managing my brother's RRIF investments.

The video had been published two days ago (but recorded three days ago) to Rumble's Bonobo3D channel: Dallas Brodie - What's Going On In Our Province (B.C.).

Dallas Brodie MLA (OneBC) spoke at The Truth Matters event at Riverside Cavalry Chapel, Langley, B.C., February 20/26. Dallas's story of her experiences in the B.C. Legislature is shocking to all who believe in democracy. Her presentation is followed by a Q&A.

A presentation by Danielle Pistilli and Tanya Gaw (Action4Canada) proceeded Dallas Brodie's speech and can be seen here: https://rumble.com/v76398a-action4canada-danielle-pistilli-and-tanya-gaw.html

This was far better than I ever expected ─ and I am a Dallas Brodie fan who intends to vote for her in any future provincial election, if possible!

I was back to bed for my nap by 12:30 p.m., I would estimate; and I rose anew around 1:40 p.m. My brother never returned until after 2 p.m., for he had run a couple of errands following his meeting.

But he was not home to stay. He soon enough left for a bus to take him away so he could begin social drinking.

Towards 3 p.m. I underwent some light exercising in my wife's bedroom this mostly cloudy day (though there have been extensive sunny periods).

Right now it is 5:09 p.m. and I am going to take my usual daily blogging break to have my day's second meal, and then watch some T.V. shows here on my bedside computer while enjoying some drink. I will finish up and publish this post well into the latter evening.

🟢🟢🟢

First up was Smash ─ episode two ("The Callback") of the first season. My source was this Fmovies.co link.

The episode finished by 6:39 p.m., and I had enjoyed a can of Cariboo Malt (7.9% alcohol) during it.

The two main competing actresses ─ and the backup female dancers ─ all have such magnificently muscled legs! If I had ever been involved in that industry as a younger man and around such specimens on a daily basis, I would be so darned frustrated ─ I would need to be sexually involved with a girlfriend or else married just to endure the exposure to these phenomenal females.

Next up was something new ... and something old, for I have the vaguest memory of the series, but only realized it after I was into the episode.

I am speaking of Profiler, and it was the premiere episode ("Insight") of the first season that I tuned in. My source was this 1Movies.bz link. Note that I tried over a half dozen other sources when I found that the video at this website was compressed at each side and also overlaid with some Eastern-European or even Eurasian language, but they were all using the same original source and thus I was left with no other option.

Lead actress Ally Walker is profoundly familiar to me from some later series when she was a little older, but danged if I can figure out what it was.

What is important is that the episode was certainly interesting enough, so I shall retain it on my rotation of shows I am currently watching alone here in my bedroom evenings.

Incidentally, it finished by 8:05 p.m. And so went my second beer. I realized that my brother had arrived home at some earlier point.

My third and final show was FBI ─ episode 17 ("Lineage") of season seven. My source was this MovieGo.st link.

That episode was very interesting, but it struck me soon after the sister had self-defence killed her brother without there being any actual visual evidence that it did actually occur in that fashion, that maybe she had deliberately despatched him and was in fact the new gang mastermind.

I was a tad surprised that this never occurred to these FBI professionals. 

The episode was done by 9:37 p.m., and during it my wife had come home from work. She was busy downstairs in the kitchen.

Right now it is 10:01 p.m. and I am very nicely buzzed from about 10 ounces of Sommet Rouge wine (12% alcohol).

I might as well call this post complete and deal with the chore of brushing my teeth, and then start doing what I need to do to finalize the four open browsers and the numerous tabs, as well as other open documents and files.

Maybe I can finally be to bed well before 11 p.m.
