  Lions get nostalgic for dreary days of long ago, during extended heat waves.  Stroads worked when there wasn't a lot of traffic.  Not so much in today's extremely crowded world.  Most of the stroads existed before lions drove.  Crow Canyon was the local stroad.  It's manely shuttered now.   A lot of lion childhood was spent on Newark Blvd, Santa Rita Rd.  Lions would live on a stroad in Titusville.  Ocala has similar rents, for now.  The best deals are all low income but not age restricted, so they only show up on apartments.com instead of after55.com.  The income limit is $40k.  Upon retirement, it'll probably be $60k.  The object of the game is to distribute enough IRAs & make enough interest to get above the ACA minimum, below the ACA maximum & below the rental maximum.  Of course, full price might be a better experience.  FL*rida now has joined Calif* in rent inflation.

IT 2019

A potato quality copy of the final installment of the 4 episode IT franchise arrived on the hard drive.  It was a quite a step up from the other 3, a very enriched envisioning more faithful to the 1990 version & probably the book, if lions ever finished it.  Of course, actually pacing is very slow in digital movies.  It only feels fast because of high speed playback.   It seems an increase in budget after the success of IT 2017 allowed them to revert some of the plot points back to the original text, like bringing the abusive father back to life & having the heroine hit it off with an abusive man instead of the alpha male depicted in episode 1.  They might have bent those points assuming it was going to be a flop.    Noted a living breathing ARRI film camera with a magazine full of money.  Funny that the magazine had IT 2 printed on it, with a shooting date in 2018 while the movie was set in 2016.  The director was an actor &...

  Ego Monger employee.  She's making more than the lion kingdom as a boss, with a $1.2M house & CEO husband.  Pretty sure she'll pay as much as allowed, but $26 for a BA is piss poor migrant labor.  Lions make a comparable fraction of their boss, but he's a decamillionaire so it's more than minimum wage.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1st hard drive failure in the last 40 years.  There were unplugged drives killed off by static electricity & altitude changes but this was the 1st live drive.  It was making increasing vibration noises over several months & gradually became too hot to touch. Managed to back it up.  Definite copper oxidation from the heat.  It was made during 1 of the hard drive shortages from 3rd world flooding. That was the oldest.  There's now a pair of 1TB from 2014 on a check twice list.  Those aren't backed up.  There's a me...
