Fourteenth in the series of the self-isolation media consumption catch up. One of the things I discovered way back in 2019 was Chinese produced disaster movies. The first one I heard about and actually watched in the theaters was The Wandering Earth. It was released around the lunar holiday back in 2019 and was a huge hit in China and maybe made a few million…

Thirteenth in the series of the self-isolation media consumption catch up. (still not sure if I will keep this disclaimer, but until I no longer have to wear a mask in public or watch a movie in the theater again, I think I will keep going..) After a year delay due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Godzilla vs Kong finally debuted last month on HBO Max and…

This week is the one year anniversary of the Covid-19 Pandemic lockdown. I started to work from home and Daniel and I began spending 99% of the time in our apartment. It’s been 11 months since I stopped working. Ironically, last year I was supposed to go to Arizona and have a 4-day weekend and see some Spring Training baseball. Flash forward to this week…

I’ve been following the careers of both actors since watching the series back in 2017 and was super happy…

Another two months has flown (or crawled or blurred – I can’t tell which) here at the Club Josh Covid-19 cocoon. News has definitely improved since the beginning of the year with vaccines a flowin’ and infections and deaths in a rapid decline. Funny – turns out the astronomical numbers in November and December were caused by people not heeding the “don’t mingle” warnings. I…

One of the few times we have walked around the neighborhood before sunset, we managed to capture some great looking skies as the sun went down.

Another visit to Laguna Beach to get out of the house. It’s the first weekend after the Stay at Home was lifted in California and even in the evening when we visited there was a lot of traffic of people leaving the beach. Thankfully it wasn’t so crowded where we were there and didn’t linger.
