Does "funnily enough" ever sound right?

Watching soilent green on TCM. Possibly for the first time. 

“While these cameras are ostensibly intended for traffic, they also serve to acclimate us to the idea that constant monitoring is an everyday part [of] life in the city,” Kolman writes on the website. “No matter the target of this surveillance, it’s clear from looking at the map that most New Yorkers get unconsentingly captured by the lens of at least one camera—if not several—every day.

so busy with my stupid spy shows i missed the one happening in real time. this is a good read on syria.

was about ready for a new pair of hikers moreso after i stepped in dog shit and the cleanup took off more than just the dogshit. still wearable but i started looking. i was hoping for something other than the merrell moabs which are fine and you can usually find a good deal on them ive had two pairs but they are kind of drab but serviceable. when ive gone away from them i usually end up with something too stiff, ya know, for actual hiking, and i probably did the same again  but i found a good price on these today $76 (!!!) so i figured id give them a go. not my first color option but thats what was available. even has free returns. i did check to see if the seller was legit and according to reddit they are.

there should be a new show i want to watch every night that i can then complain about. oh hey, december 5th, you say. not soon enough!

Mike Leigh is featured this month on criterion. I've seen all in this collection but The Short and Curlies which I'll probably skip because it's a short. Meantime was the first film of his I saw and remains a favorite.
