    Oh, au contrares, madame Faux. There's a new sanctioning body, called the LGBTQXYZ Boxing Association, and they will be having events of the gladiators in arenas that seat 1000's of cheering(and booing) spectators. Yup. Get your ticckiccks, today.

    I followed Liddy's career a bit after Watergate, but lost track of E. Howard Hunt. Woody Harrelson, whom I'll watch in just about anything, made EHH complex AND idiotic, so that was good fun.
    Woody Harrelson was terrific in “Highwaymen” as one of the Texas Rangers who tracked down and killed Bonnie and Clyde.

    Just finished all the seasons of Longmire. I enjoyed it.

    A couple of Christmas’ ago, my wife gave me a boxed set of Craig Johnson’s Longmire novels. I think that for once the series did a good job of doing justice to the books. They had to cut some corners, but they realized that Wyoming itself was one of the main characters.

    Johnson kind of reminds me of James Lee Burke, but I don’t think Hollywood ever really got his Dave Robicheaux novels quite right.

    I liked it too. Within the limits of Hollywood, I thought it was a fairly accurately portrayed. I've been hoping there would be a spinoff.

    My brother and SIL suggested watching "Drain the Oceans" on Disney+. It's produced by National Geographic. We started watching it last week - fascinating! They use current technology to see what shipwrecks (and other stuff sunk in various bodies of water) would look like if we could "drain the ocean." They can then figure out how and why the ship sunk. If you like history, you might want to check it out. I think there's also one season on Hulu.

    I don't know about a spinoff, but I think I would enjoy a continued extension... seeing how things and people progress beyond the last episode.

    An outlier I'm sure, I mostly watch baseball these days.

    One show I treated myself to each week was Endeavour on Masterpiece Theater Sunday nights. Its last episode was last weekend. Now I'm wondering if anything can take its place. [sigh.....]

    Anyone else watch Endeavour? What did you think of the last episode?

    I do watch other British series on occasion such as Foyles War. Some of those are older, but I simply cannot stomach much American teevee anymore.
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    I am watching “Chimp Empire” a four part documentary on Netflix. The Director of this also made the gorgeous Oscar winning film “My Octopus Teacher.” I heard him interviewed on Joe Rogan and it was a great interview.


    The chimps in the Ngogo national forest in Uganda are habituated to humans because scientists have been studying them for 30 years. so when camera people came through, the chimps ignore them just as they ignore the scientists.
