  1. Netflix just rolled out the last 13 episodes of "Haven". I started watching on Friday night and finished this evening. It's based on a Stephen King novel and originally aired on the SyFy channel. I saw a few episodes when they were originally broadcast and decided to watch the entire series from start to finish when it landed on Netflix a year or so ago. They had 5 seasons with 13 episodes each. At the end of the 13 episodes of season 5 they stopped with a cliff-hanger. This release adds another 13 episodes to season 5 and completes the story. It took me two days to complete the 6 episodes of the new season of "Black Mirror". It's sort of like the Twilight Zone gets advanced tech. Each episode is a stand alone story and they're all kind of dark. I thought "Hated in the Nation" was the best story in this series. I would have binge watched West World, but HBO released it one episode per week, so that was on my schedule every Monday evening.
  2. Cheers, Robert. Laissez les bon temps roulez!

  5. If you don't turn on the porch light, you can keep it ALL for yourself -- at least, that's been my experience!

  10. Well, the question I'm asking is, why didn't you get this one: https://www.fabric.com/buy/0376607/alexander-henry-love-luck-and-liberty-all-american-bright?cm_vc=756b1813-cbc1-43b3-84bd-29889bf8fb7b
  11. According to LIVESTRONG.COM, "In general, drinking coffee on its own in moderation is good for your health." Although the caffeine in a cup of coffee can temporarily increase your blood pressure, it provides a large dose of antioxidants that may protect against heart disease, Alzheimer's and some forms of cancer. I'd go with the idea that plain coffee is better for you than the excessive sugar and variety of chemicals you'd get from Mountain Dew or any other soda. Of course, if you get your coffee from one of those sugary milkshake things like they sell at Starbucks then it's probably a toss-up. I've been drinking my coffee without cream or sweetener for the past 40 years or so and now I have an aversion to sweetened beverages. I usually go with two largish mugs in the morning. After that it's unsweetened tea, water or the occasional glass of stout On rare occasions I'll have a Coke or a glass of fruit juice, but that's usually when no other acceptable beverage is available. Juice (and those juice blends and drinks) tend to be mostly empty calories from the sugar that naturally occurs (or that gets added to things like Sunny D). Whole fruit is much more nutritious.
  12. That episode originally aired when I was 10 years old. 54 years later, I still vividly remember the nightmares I had that night. Rod Serling was a genius.
  13. Other than the webs being a little messy, spiders don't bother me. However; I think there's a primordial fear and loathing of snakes that crosses species. I've been known to scream like a little girl when surprised by a large snake and my dog gets upset when he sees a coiled up garden hose. Last month, this story got coverage for several weeks and they kept using the same still shot. I was ready to quit reading the news. http://www.wral.com/orange-county-man-bitten-by-king-cobra-out-of-hospital/15725206/
