“Miss Scarlet” is Back! PBS

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

“When her father dies, Eliza Scarlet finds herself facing a difficult choice. As an unmarried woman, she faces poverty without a husband to provide for her — unless she takes on the challenge of running her late father’s detective agency, which would be unthinkable for a respectable Victorian lady. Fortunately, she finds an unlikely partner in the unconventional Detective Inspector William Wellington of Scotland Yard, known as “The Duke,” and the pair begin to tackle the crimes and mysteries of Victorian London together.”

Unwitting time traveler Joseph Bridgeman is adjusting to life in the present and wondering if his traveling days are behind him. But when he’s contacted by the Continuum, an organized group of time travelers based in the future, he learns his career is just getting started.
The Continuum needs Joe’s help. One of their operatives is missing, last seen in 19th-century Paris, and they believe Joe’s ability to see the past might be the only way to find him.

Grief

The salt seemed to lift off the waves, murmuring his grief and causing tiny bruises on his skin. He wondered if all the tears of ancestors made up the depths of oceans. He stood at the edge of the water, wishing it had all been a nightmare and the cool fresh breeze from the saltwater would wake him.

After, he stood with the others at the cemetery, the useless wants of his mind discarded, and faced the field of mourners. It was a short service and then he returned to the beach, letting more tears fill the sea.

I am not a horror fan but really liked the Netflix offering: “Mr. Harrigan’s Phone”, based on a short story by Stephen King. A teaser below, don’t read any further or watch trailer before watching. 😳. But of course I give you the trailer😁🙄

“When Mr. Harrigan dies, Craig, the teen who befriended and did odd jobs for him, puts his smart phone in his pocket before burial.”

Grave

Never a grave
I’m not that brave
No enclosed space I’d ever crave
Give me the freedom please
No cramped up box with bent knees
I hope to have an end with ease
I’ll choose the last with fiery flames
Might see the devil and his games
Heard he’s kicking ass and taking names.

3TC – Ooh Baby

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

I never know what you’re thinking

You’re certainly not windy

However I can feel the cold

When I’ve been careless or too breezy

My preference in atmosphere definitely is hot

Up close and personal with you is my favorite spot.

This week’s theme is THE WEATHER
Your three words today are: COLD HOT
WINDY. https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2022/10/22/three-things-challenge-m124/
