The Ones Below

 A quiet, restrained horror film about two couples expecting their first child. Recommended by both of us.

 Guess its time to invest in a humidifier upstairs. Too many nose bleeds and sore throats. - Lisa

Hardcore Henry

Judging by the trailer I thought this movie would be ridiculously stupid but you know what? I thought it was a lot of (albeit violent) fun and a hoot to watch.

There's Only One Correct Way

He's solving everything LOL 

All Eyes on Sharon Tate

A harmless 10 minute documentary from 1966 that can only be seen as tragic and creepy in light of the fate ahead of her.

World Without End

 A truly awful film where '50's astronauts mistakenly travel forward in time to a dystopian Earth. It is so grievously sexist that NOW may have produced it for propaganda purposes. The actresses should have resigned in protest.

My Thoughts - on the "Muslim" Ban

 I appreciate that Americans tend towards hysteria of late, but let's deal with facts. It cannot be a Muslim "ban" if Malaysia, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Chad, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Turkey, etc. are not included on the list.

Here are the nations - NOT the religion - subject to the temporary ban: Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, and Somalia. All 7, with the exception of Iran, have no functioning government capable of vetting emigrants.

Many Presidents, including liberal darling Carter, have enacted bans on immigration from specific countries. Quit listening to the lying MSM and do some thinking for yourself.

Split

At the Avalon with Lisa: 

 M. Night Shyamalan's latest tale is about three teenage girls held captive by a man with split personality disorder. James McAvoy (sp?) is wonderful, and the story is strong. It's not Shyamalan's best work, but it's far far far from his worst.

LOL

 My oldest came down this morning and said "I had the worst dream, you were screaming at me in the grocery store, really loud". I replied, "that's not a dream, that's a flashback". Lmao.....i amuse myself!! - Lisa

So Disrespectful

I saw something at Mass today I never have before: a few pews in front of me was a young woman and her son. She spent a chunk of the Mass on her phone, then abruptly got up to leave. Rather than ask the lady beside her to move, she stood on the pew bench and climbed over the pew. It was so unexpected that I found myself saying "No No No."

EW Sucks

 Someone leaves old issues of Entertainment Weekly behind at work. I read them on lunch to aid my weight loss efforts, as EW's obnoxious, pandering, SJW agenda inspires me to purge. From a single review of a sitcom: "the intolerable wrongheadedness of middle aged men" "lack diversity" "white male entitlement" "alpha male lout" and ends by saying masculinity should disappear or else men should. #gag

John Hurt

RIP actor John Hurt. The War Doctor's reign was short.

Barbara Hale

Barbara Hale, best known as Della Street on Perry Mason, has died. RIP

Mike Connors

 RIP Mike Connors, TV's "Mannix," age 91.

Cookie Sales are Ending!

 Girl Scout Cookie Sales are ending tomorrow. If you haven't ordered from my girls yet, now's the time!

This is a lie. I never voted for Dion Tennuci.

 I'm married to a man who can't dance and who voted for Dt, I'm living a nightmare. - Lisa

The Stock Market

 The Dow hit 20,000 for the first time ever today

14 Oscar nominations for La La Land?? Really?

14 nominations?? Hollywood really must be on the decline. It was a pleasant little musical that featured below par signing and flat footed dancing (then tried to say the mediocrity was intentional). NO WAY it deserves 14 nods.

Enough with the Hyperbole

 No one was jailed or executed just for protesting Saturday. If he's "literally Hitler" Trump better step up his game.

Crazy Hair Day

 Crazy Hair Day at school!

The Girl on the Train

 As is the case more often than clichés allow, this movie was far better than the book that inspired it.

A Sad Truth

I think the Packers have become the "Groundhog Day" team of the NFL. They keep repeating the same season over and over. Every year they stubbornly bring Dom Capers back and use their first draft pick on defense. Every year they are one of the youngest and most injured teams in the league. Every year they start out slow and finish strong. Every year they make the playoffs and every year their defense collapses at the most crucial point of the post season. -Jim F

Maybe She Was Right

The press seems to take pride in the relatively low turnout for the inaugural events, but look at stuff like this. My boss, a die-hard Trump supporter from the minute he joined the race, would not go to DC because she feared violence from the Left. Apparently, she wasn't far off.

The 45th President

Congratulations Mr. President! The open and orderly transition of power.

Edge

 If you feel the need to constantly call yourself edgy, I assure you you are not.
