survivalist movie

 this morning i watched a DVD movie, a redbox rental, 'survivalist'. i recognized john malkovich in it. i think this is the third movie i have seen about the pandemic, and the second that would be best described as 'dystopian'. there is a radio commentator, and her show is called 'doomsday daily'. it is about a former FBI agent trying to defend his farm and home against a group in a 'war wagon'. an escapee from a camp shows up at the farm, and this is why the marauders stop there as well. there is some back-story, told in various vignettes, about the main character's dad, who had gambling debts. it is not too often where i end up talking to a movie, but i did this time. i said 'shoot him!' because there was plenty of un-necessary talking at times. during one of the scenes with his dad, i was able to see what kind of beer was in it, the label read voodoo ranger. i have heard of it but haven't drank it yet. also in the background of a scene was a poster for 'the mailman' if i am not mistaken. i searched online and found out there is such a movie from 2004, but i had never heard of it before. 

  after the movie was done it was time to do the errand running. first was dumping the movie at the gas station. then the post office, both orders from e-bay were there. then target where i got a tube of aim toothpaste. then i briefly went home, and it was time to venture out again for lunch. i went to jersey mike's and had a sandwich there, as i like getting the airline miles. then i went to aldi for my weekly grocery order, and laid down for a while. as expected, after having some pizza for the evening meal, it was easier to get some things done by deciding to have the TV off. i wanted to get my income taxes done, but much like previous years, i did them online but don't like the fees they charge. so only the federal taxes were filed, i can do the state tax return myself manually. i made a stop at the liquor store and got a bottle of peroni so now there are four beers waiting. late in the evening i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 36 cents.
