Salutations.

It is now 6:26 AM EST for me.

The 1st thing that I want to say is that this is not my prepared working day of the week. That would be Tuesday. Don’t expect me to normally type in Wednesdays. I’m doing this to meet a self created expectation requirement. In this list, I will explain idea ‘Unpacking’, and this coming Tuesday, I will explain the upgrade I gave to idea ‘Need ask’, an idea that I explained in a recent list.

I’m going to start typing again around 8:40 AM EST later today, about 2 hours from now. I just recently looked at my recent purchases at Amazon.com, and I don’t see anything that I would recommend for you to buy from them. As I said before, there’s no obligation to buy from them from me, and I’m not making money for recommending such products. For example, I’m not sponsored by Amazon.com to actually recommend stuff. I’m like most of the comments that you may see on Amazon.com for related purchases, people genuinely giving advice for their products. So, if you are there around 8:40 AM EST later today, I’ll see you then.

It is now 8:54 AM EST for me.

Kids teaching me something:

Before I begin, I just invented an idea I think less than an hour ago. I am currently working on allowing kids to teach me something with the use of this blog. For a certain amount of years already, I have been making an effort to teach kids something, over and over and over. About less than an hour ago, I invented an idea that created the speculation that kids could find very useful to communicate via using this blog an imagined situation that kids individually are teaching me something for a change. Now, I may never type those projects in this blog. The ‘good news’ is that at least I am now thinking about it! I believe that working on such a project may help me make better ideas for this blog. And who knows? Maybe I will type something in that actively allows kids to imagine that they are teaching me something for a change. It’s all new to me. I think it’s a good idea, that kids individually may imagine themselves teaching me something during an active participation, and I’m letting you know about it.

I am going to look for that music video and trailer now to recommend to you. That should take maybe an hour and a half or less to set it up. So, if you are there, I’ll see you then.

It is now 9:58 AM EST for me.

The music video that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘Fingers Crossed’ by Lauren Spencer Smith. To start, here’s a partial comment quote and a comment quote from www.youtube.com:

‘ …my 10 year old granddaughter introduced me to this song and I absolutely love it, it proves a good song has no boundaries. ‘

‘ Unlike some of the young female artists out there these days, you can actually understand the words that she’s singing. I love this song! ‘

And here’s age verification from wikipedia.org:

Born September 28, 2003 (age 20)
Portsmouth, England, United Kingdom

And here’s ‘Critical reception’ quote from article ‘Fingers Crossed (Lauren Spencer-Smith song)’ from wikipedia.org:

‘ Steve Holden of Newsbeat called it a “classic heartbreak anthem with lyrics about ‘taking back the tears I’ve cried’ and trying to fix an ex’s ‘daddy issues'”. George Griffiths of the Official Charts Company described the track as a “gut-wrenching breakup track with hyper-specific lyrics”… ‘

I found it by selecting publisher ‘Top Mixes: Music 2023’ from www.youtube.com, select ‘Videos’, then select ‘Music 2023 August 🎤 Most Listened Songs 2023 (Top Hits 2023)’ published 3 months ago. Music video ‘ Fingers Crossed’ starts about 31 minutes and 24 seconds into that music video collection. To watch the music video, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘lauren fingers crossed’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 23M views! It was published 1 year ago by publisher ‘Lauren Spencer Smith’.

In my opinion, the appeal that the music video has, at least one of the appeals, is how the actors and actresses portray the meaning that the singer Lauren Spencer Smith gives the impression that she is trying to convey. For example, as she is singing, invisible to the actors and actresses, the actors and actresses are portraying something about the meaning of the lyrics to her song, making the song more susceptible to be understood by those who are watching the music video. So, in my opinion, the music video is trying to be easily understandable, like it’s lyrics. Here’s that quote again from one of the comments:

‘ Unlike some of the young female artists out there these days, you can actually understand the words that she’s singing.

And here’s a quote from the lyrics:

Should’ve paid attention to my friends
Tellin’ me how bad it’s gonna end
Always givin’ their opinions
Now I wish I would have listened

The movie trailer refurbished with inapproprieities removed for advice that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE – Official Teaser Trailer (HD)’. Here’s a quote from wikipedia.org about the movie:

‘ Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is an upcoming American supernatural comedy film directed by Gil Kenan, who co-wrote it with Jason Reitman. It is the sequel to Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) and the fifth film in the Ghostbusters franchise. The film stars Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace, Celeste O’Connor, Logan Kim, alongside Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, and William Atherton reprising their characters from the earlier films, while Kumail Nanjiani and Patton Oswalt also join the cast. In the film, following the events of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the veteran Ghostbusters join forces with their new recruits to save the world in New York City from a powerful chilling adversary. ‘

I found it by selecting publisher ‘TrailerSpot’ from www.youtube.com, select ‘Videos’, then select ‘NEW MOVIE TRAILERS 2023 & 2024 | 4K ULTRA HD’, which was published 4 days ago with 394K views. The trailer starts at the beginning of that trailer collection. To watch the trailer, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘ghostbusters frozen empire’, and link ‘GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE – Official Teaser Trailer (HD)’ should be one of the 1st selections offered, with almost 20M views! It was published 6 days ago from publisher ‘Ghostbusters’.

Even though I watched the trailer, I think that this sales pitch should address a few of the actors and actresses in the movie. If you look at www.imdb.com’s link for the movie, you may? notice a few celebrities that you may like. I noticed celebrities Paul Rudd, Ernie Hudson, Bill Murray, Kumail Nanjiani, just to name a few. Before watching the trailer, I didn’t think of watching the movie, but after watching the trailer and looking at who was going to be in the movie, in my opinion, I look forward to watching it when it’s available streaming.(Since I am a single man that is currently not in a relationship and with no kids, I only watch new James Bond movies when they come out in theatres, and that happens only a few years at a time.)

It is now 10:32 AM EST for me.

I am going to take a short break, and then set up the references for idea ‘Unpacking’, let’s say for 20 minutes. I’ll see you then, if you are there.

It is now 11:01 AM EST for me.

Unpacking:

I’m going to explain idea ‘Unpacking’ incrementally. My 1st explanation of idea ‘Unpacking’ will be as it relates to the movie ‘Nash Bridges(2021)’ starring Don Johnson as Nash Bridges, and Jeff Perry as Harvey Leek. When I 1st watched the movie streaming, I think it was free by subscribing to www.usanetwork.com. You can also watch it from the streaming service www.peacocktv.com. If you choose www.peacocktv.com, you can just subscribe to it for 1 month. Soon after you watch the movie, you can cancel the service, and it should let you continue to be able to watch it until the one month runs out. Do it that way, and you don’t have to worry about recurring charges. Since I have a subscription to peacocktv for now, I’ll quote from that streaming service. This is the scene from the movie ‘Nash Bridges’ that I created idea ‘Unpacking’ from. The scene starts 1 hour 1 minute and 22 seconds into the movie. Here is the quote:

Nash Bridges: ‘Uh, Harvey, I just gotta ask, how long has it been since you’ve been out of this apartment?’

Harvey Leek: ‘Six years, four months, nine days.’

Nash Bridges: ‘Okay, so when this is all over, we’re gonna take a little walk. Okay?’

Harvey Leek: ‘Eh, not likely.’

When I invented idea ‘Unpacking’, I used a scene in episode 3.5 ‘A Tale of Two Topas’ from sci-fi tv series ‘The Orville(2022)’. I forgot where the episode was, so I searched in www.google.com for phrase ‘the orville tv series archaeological expedition’, and without opening the link, the search showed me link www.denofgeek.com. Here’s the partial quote:

‘ Jun 30, 2022 — A looming almost Mayan-inspired temple with Indiana Jonesesque booby traps and all the fixings for an exciting archaeological adventure are … ‘

And so, there it is. The episode is available from the streaming service Hulu, and according to www.google.com from streaming service Disney+. I’m using Hulu to quote. This scene from the episode starts about 3 minutes and 14 seconds into the episode:

Cmdr. Kelly Grayson(Adrianne Palicki): ‘Jackpot.’

Soon after she said that, the episode uses music and illustration to show archaeological artifacts that the Orville team just discovered.

3 minutes and 38 seconds into the episode, the Orville team are examining and categorizing certain artifacts that were discovered.

My point is that, during their entire expedition, the resources of their government, safeguards, technology, etc. were obviously used to ensure the safety of those involved, including the Orville’s crewmembers involved in that expedition. During the tv show ‘Nash Bridges(1996-2001)’, according to www.imdb.com, both Don Johnson(Nash Bridges) and Jeff Perry(Harvey Leek) have been around for 122 episodes. I’m assuming that’s all the episodes. And if memory serves, Harvey Leek has been the San Francisco’s Investigation Unit’s only computer expert in Nash Bridge’s team. In every mission, he’s the only one that does the computer related investigation work for the entire team. My concern is that, for many situations that Harvey Leek has been exposed to, when he would investigate the criminals under investigation, he would experience situations that I would identify involves contemplation unpacking. For many of their criminal cases, Harvey would be exposed to certain concepts that would involve an appealing sense of contemplation unpacking, something that may appeal to the general public that would facilitate communication. And after Harvey Leek retired, this is what happened to him:

Nash Bridges: ‘Uh, Harvey, I just gotta ask, how long has it been since you’ve been out of this apartment?’

Harvey Leek: ‘Six years, four months, nine days.’

What happened is that, after Harvey Leek retired, all of those situations of unpacking started to occupy more in his mind, causing him to no longer need to leave his apartment.

Now, idea ‘Need ask’ that I recently explained in a previous list, one of the positive effects of it’s upgrade is to take out some of that adverse unpacking that certain instigations that you may have experienced, if you have experienced instigation at all. When that happens, you may feel smarter, more intelligent, since that adverse sense of unpacking has been mitigated/lessened somewhat. The upgraded explanation for idea ‘Need ask’ is scheduled to happen this coming Tuesday, November 21, 2023, less than a week from now.

It is now 11:49 AM EST for me.

I am going to close this list now. To reiterate, I will start typing again this coming Tuesday, Nov 21, 2023, to explain the upgrade for idea ‘Need ask’, unless I change my mind. So, if you are there, I’ll see you then.
