Schnickelfritz

In case no one has mentioned it (yes, that's right. I did not dig thru the comments. I'm too lazy.) - the new season starts Sept 7th. One new episode a day instead of the usual 2 to start the season. Still on the fence about whether I care, but... Now if they paired the new one with a rerun from the first 10 years, I would be all in. ETA- Apparently, I have jumped the gun. No new episodes are listed on the Spectrum guide for the week of the 7th. I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

But remember, that little hill in front of the 3rd condo was magical and would save her from any tsunami. Isn't her living in the condo with the peek-a-boo view of the ocean rather like a kid who covers his eyes and thinks because he can't see you, you can't see him? Does that stop tsunamis as well as that hill?

What the heck was that? Don't think I would be socializing with him. Is it a guilty parent thing? Doing a little research, he also planned to kill his parents and yet, there they are - ready to fire up the grill and listen to whatever dumb excuse he has to offer on the day. He also was allowed to leave prison to go to his father's internment and grandmother's and father's funerals. Didn't he kind of lose those rights when he started eliminating family members? https://www.chathamdailynews.ca/news/local-news/jenkins-approved-for-escorted-release-to-attend-interment This article touches on why he did it. http://povmagazine.com/articles/view/murder-in-the-family On a lighter note - Happy birthday to Schnickelfritz Jr. Now don't make me (NOT) visit you in prison.

I had seen another show on him on ID last year (episode on The Lies that Bind) but this show really delved into everything and yet I have a suspicion that they barely scratched the surface of his malfeasance. That story was so convoluted that you needed a score card to keep track of the players. My heart broke for Matthew. He was doomed from the first day he met Scott Rogers. I'm glad that "Ian" (not sure if that is his real name as he was identified as Stewart in the book) escaped and the other 2 boys were removed.

I can't believe there are so many of this incidences. Enough for a long season. That, along with Norovirus and Covid have definitely dulled my enthusiasm for sharing a trip, trapped on the ocean, with 6,000 of my closest friends.

The Mindy McCready episode will be shown again on Monday the 24th at 7pm Eastern, the 25th at 1:30 am EDT and on Sunday the 30th at 2pm EDT. Hope you can catch it.

Trivia - 3,000 USD = 3,588,401.75 KRW (South Korean Won) (or $1= 1,196.16 won) Did anyone notice the denomination of the bills Jihoon and his banker pulled out of the bank? Maybe they gave her 3,000 won ($2.50) and called it a day. Undoubtedly not, but the idea made me laugh because Deaven taking absolutely no responsibility for any of this mess is getting on my nerves. Free Jihoon's father!

There will be a marathon on August 8th and 9th, Hoping to catch a couple of episodes that I missed the first time around. That will be followed by 3 new episodes Sunday evening (the 9th) celebrating the 100th episode. Walt Disney, Dick Clark and Billy Mays. Interesting combination

My biggest heartburn with this show is that they don't seem to help. You know in your heart that the hoarders involved almost certainly went right back to hoarding. Anyone ever see the British show, The Hoarder Next Door? The doctor on it, Stelios Kiosses always seemed to get good results. For starters, the show did not come in with dumpsters right away and force the issue. He seemed to actually treat the patient and got them to start clearing the hoard then the show would step in. It was a long process (weeks) and he used different techniques tailored to the patient. You got the sense that they were well on their way to recovery. Probably just as big of a lie as most reality tv but at least it gave you hope. This show is just designed to give you angina.

It was even more ridiculous considering how many close family members had had cancer. The number of people who let her down is pretty staggering. Just a guess, she cracked jokes (or was otherwise jovial) because of her nervousness and that went toward them not taking the situation as seriously. There is a reason that they call it the art of medicine and that doctors 'practice'. Too many humans involved.

What a great gif! Just watched that episode the other day. She's at the bar trying to find Auggie (the bookie) to make a bet on Potato Pancake. I LOVE when she goes into characters. Drunk on "My Johnny Lies Over the Ocean", Mrs. Christina Chesterton in "Smooth Operators", Marguerite Canfield in "Widow Weep for Me". The list is long and wonderful.

Just a guess, but is she Natalie Reeves from Beauty and the Geek? This made me think of her...

Mr Schnickelfritz and I really enjoyed Accused: Guilty or Innocent... until the 2 part season ender (Jason Carter accused of murdering his mother in Iowa). The minute (and I do mean the minute) we saw the lead investigator Agent Ludwick of the IDCI and his description of listening to the 9-11 call, we knew he was an issue. Mr S lasted all of 15 minutes into the first episode before giving up. I stayed with it and gave updates as misery loves company. In following up, there were tons of things the show didn't even touch on. The civil suit filed and won by his father. Ludwick asking other investigators be removed from the case when they didn't agree with his conclusions. 2 of the other suspects named by informants being in jail after the murder and one supposedly confessing on a phone call from the jail. Here's an article that does a great job of consolidating the facts. https://marioncountytribune.com/2020/04/01/was-shirley-carters-murder-properly-investigated/ And anyone who was annoyed as I was after watching those episodes will be glad to know that Jason has filed 2 lawsuits (one federal and one state) against the state and Ludwick. Just quick aside. In the episode as they showed everyone reentering the courtroom after the verdict had been reached in only 2 hours, did anyone else hear Ludwick talking to the deputies and instructing them as to who would be handcuffing Jason? Truly delusional. ->->->->->End of rant

Just doing a search on their site pulled up 12 on the 1st 2 pages of results. Consolidate, people!

(For)Get Shorty... And that First Husband Too!

Because no drug addict/ criminal has ever lied to the police??? He wasn't very concerned about his own health if he was on meth and fentanyl.

WTF? I have become a Covidiot. To think that I actually watched that. 2 hours of my life I will never get back... I just want to know what Steven has on Dr Now or production that he keeps appearing on our screens. Must be juicy.

Do not confuse his well thought out story with a little thing like THE FACTS.

Fixed it

According to Facebook, the dog's name is Maxine and she is home and resting comfortably. Great news!!

Hopefully, like the virus - this too shall pass. They could at least be showing the Gold Crown movies and not the mass produced drivel. A-nnoy-ing...

I thought it was reduced BY $180 per month. Not knocked down to $180. Too bad I erased the show. I double checked as I thought I read it that way, but JJ for the first half kept saying he was only paying $180. They could only knock down the amount by 20% to try to rectify the mistake. Anyone read the paperwork??? I think he was paying child support until he made bad business decisions and went for disability. Now his child support comes out of that. Maybe they were saying they could only take 20% of that. I was confused as poor Byrd by the end of it. Didn't like either parent.

Abrams said it was the normal spring break.

Sadness that Duke died! RIP. On the other hand there is definite good news on Lor's condition. If anyone is interested, Lor's medical bills were paid for in their entirety by Project K-9 Hero. They do great work! https://projectk9hero.org/

Update on Lor
