How do you screw up a TV show?

Woof.  How do you screw up a TV series with Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson?

Brothers is three episodes in.  That is usually enough to decide to stick with a show, or not.  On IMDB, it’s got a 6.3.  Not good.  The last time McConaughey and Harrelson worked together was the first season of True Detectives.  That season averaged an IMDB score of 9.2.

What people are streaming.

Here’s what people are watching on streaming services.  I can’t figure it.

Neagley is a spinoff series from the Reacher franchise.  The main character, Neagley, is a hard-looking Black woman with no charisma.  Both are Action/Crime/Thriller TV shows.

Reacher features Alan Ritchson who is a big ox, and was very popular until he started doing podcasters and revealed that he is as dumb as he looks.  That show is based upon a very popular book series by Lee Childs that currently has 30 books published. 

The book fanbase explains the popularity of Reacher, I’m not sure why anyone watches Neagley.

Fitted sheets

I didn’t know the bedsheet conundrum was resolved. 

If your fitted sheet only has a single care or manufacturer tag, look for that single corner and place it on the bottom-right corner of your bed. This instantly aligns the long and short sides correctly.

It should be easier to distinguish between a bottle of shampoo, conditioner or body wash.

Also, why are there so many brands of body wash?   I’m just talking about in the sandalwood aisle.  Guys used to just use a bar of soap.  It’s probably some kind of generational/metro-sexual thing.

Sparky had more fun than I did.

Sparky got a car ride as I hitched up the camper, and moved it back 30 feet off of the aux. driveway.  It was barely a car ride, but Sparky didn’t seem to know the difference.  After that, Sparky got to spend the day outside as I edged and scrubbed the driveway.

A week ago, it looked like I’d be able to seal the driveway, before the weather turned too cold.  I need two warm days, but it may be too late in the year.

Creatine helps.

Science Daily:  Creatine may help build muscle even without exercise

Research article:  Effects of creatine supplementation with and without exercise and diet intervention on body composition cognitive function and markers of health.

CrM [creatine] supplementation without exercise training and diet intervention increased lean tissue mass, strength, and muscular endurance while promoting favor-able changes in selected blood lipids, HbA1c, and selected markers of cognitive function and memory.

Do the reading, but in short, 10 grams of creatine improves physical and mental performance in old folks.  Physical exercise enhances the benefits.

The risk is negligible, so I’m going to try it.  Coincidentally, I had blood work done yesterday, so will have some numbers to compare.
