5 million...or about the concession sales at a Michigan v Ohio State football game...that’s pathetic.
Hmmm 5 million...10 bucks a ticket...500k people or so?
What is that .23% of the US populace?
Never heard of it.
#2 - The Old Lady Cleavage - Don't get me wrong - If a woman has the goods, nothing wrong with flaunting it. However, once these ladies reach a certain age, let's face it - Gravity has won!!! And its time to cover up... I mean really - nothing is more repulsive that an old bag trying to look young and showing more than we need to see...
Rumor has it Aretha got a rose tattoo on one of her breasts when she was younger.
If so, it is now long-stemmed.
I haven’t heard it mentioned but there was a part where Tina Fey was helping to present an award. Since I am hearing impaired I use closed captioning and read what she was saying because there was a lot of audience noise. She introduced herself as Sarah Palin and then said some obviously stupid stuff. I don’t think the TV audience heard it but the stars in the audience were really laughing hard.
Tina Fey has turned into such a joke.
You seem a pleasant sort.
Don’t know if this would be to your taste, but may I respectfully make some suggestions?
They’re not kid-stuff and some of the language and situations are distinctly adult (as opposed to childish-adult), but I was massively entertained and there’s hours of goods here:
Firefly
Dead Like Me
State of Play
Hustle
Midsomer Murders
Inspector Morse
Lately, I’ve been scouring the back lists at NetFlix. Things I’ve found: Yasuhiro Ozu (brilliant Japanese family drama), Charlie Chan, and a fascinating collection of Yiddish films from the ‘30’s and ‘40’s, many starring Molly Picon. There’s plenty more and I get ‘em for about 25/month. I’m seriously considering dropping cable altogether and just letting Internet in.
Sophie Scholl: The Final Days
Sophie Scholl was arrested and then executed by guillotine by the Third Reich for distributing anti-Nazi leaflets at her college campus. For this she was beheaded along with several of the other brave young God fearing people of the “White Rose”, an underground Nazi resistance movement. This is a dramatization of that event, it is a movie that will not leave you and will have you thinking about it for days after viewing. I highly recommend this film. I found myself drawn into this movie like few other movies will do. This is brilliant stuff. The tension becomes almost unbearable. The depiction of Freisler (The judge), which might seem over the top, but is quite consistent with accounts and actual film clips of the trial, maybe even understated. He was diabolical, tyrannical and very hot tempered.
After reading many rave reviews from regular people, I ordered this 2005 movie over the Holidays from Netflix. It was sooooo good, I just had to purchas a copy
