Oh, I saw the stuff from Publius and saved it, thanks!
My husband had a furlough day and I took a vacation day yesterday. It looked like we were the only non-retired ones, and based on the people we talked to also. SUCH a nice crowd, completely polite, completely silent at the critical times, not even a cough, and I certainly didn’t need to worry about setting my purse down on the seat next to me. It was almost full other than the first three rows, but people were so kind (like the gentleman who sat down in the row in front made sure to move one over so he wouldn’t block me whatsoever). I was so impressed :0) Not the usual gang-banger and/or leftist Tucson types that are too often in the theaters here and why we gave up going.
But now, I told my husband that whenever he has a furlough day, I’ll take the day off and we’ll go to the movies. You’re right, nothing as great as the theater.
My parents go several times a week, but during the quiet times also.
