-- 12:30a Bed
-- 8:00a Up
-- 9:00a Leaving to bike, then get breakfast @McD: 2 sausage/egg burritos
-- 10:46a Inside after biking 4+4 in gusty winds; ... "Ghosts"
-- 11:30a "Resident Alien"
-- 2:47p "Son of a Critch"
He has a great aunt named Jenny -- although she was only mentioned -- since she's dead.
-- 4:00p Leaving to try to bike, then pickup dinner @Panda Express
Despite the gusty wind, wound up biking 5 mi with neighbor who was already out.
Then I tried to place my order on the app and was expecting free side of shrimp if
I ordered a 2-entree plate. But, when I tried, the app said I failed to meet the
requirements. It should have a "fix it" button.
~~ I decided to drive to the restaurant and I went in but then I realized that I had ordered
a 1-entree bowl. It had let me specify 2 entrees, but I didn't realize that the 2nd entree
overrode the 1st one. But I could NOT fix it there because they have no wi-fi.
~~ I knew that wi-fi was available at the Jewel 2 blocks away, so I went there.
At first, the app claimed I was 19 mi away. I don't know why. But I eventually fixed
it and it said my order would be ready at 5:10p.
~~ I got there a few mins early and the place was a madhouse. They offered me a free drink
for waiting but the diet Coke spout was giving nothing but foam. I got my order at 5:17p
-- 5:52p Inside after biking 3 mi; Dinner @home: Firecracker shrimp plus some chicken.
"Children Ruin Everything"; I was going to bike again after eating but it was now too dark.
-- 6:49p "60 Minutes"
>>> 8:00p "Elsbeth"
Spinoff of character from "The Good Wife" and "The Good Fight".
In both of those series she was a defense lawyer in Chicago, but now she's moved to
NYC and is going to be a character similar to Columbo. In other words, it's
a HOW-done-it rather than a WHO-done it, because the "who" is presented at the beginning.
~~ Her new job is as an independent observer of the NYPD precinct due to a
consent decree that came out of a wrongful arrest lawsuit.
~~ It's hard to know if I should bother watching this. It's amusing, but I've been watching
the character's quirkiness for years. In the other shows, there was more going on, but now
she's at the center. With Columbo, he was a police detective, so if he wanted to intrude,
it would be hard to get rid of him. Elsbeth doesn't really have that authority. Her job
is to observe the police, looking for when they are violating the rules. But, as people
keep telling me, we are supposed to allow for TV writers to ignore reality for the
sake of entertainment. But if it's not believable, how is it to be entertaining?
