Hi all Mowgli and friends are back this week in the all-new version of The Jungle Book. Initial reviews, as well as audience approval, are good, so it's set to do well. The other releases are a bit more disappointing and aimed at smaller target audiences. Just note that this version of the Jungle Book is far removed from the well- known 1967 version, and is not suitable for the ankle-biters... it will be too dark and intense for them, especially in the 3D/4D versions. Age rating is PG10-12 V.

When Gandhi was studying law at the University College of London, a white professor, whose last name was Peters, disliked him intensely and always displayed prejudice and animosity towards him. Also, because Gandhi never lowered his head when addressing him , as he expected.... there were always "arguments" and confrontations. One day, Mr. Peters was having lunch at the dining room of the University, and Gandhi came along with his tray and sat next to the professor. The professor said, "Mr Gandhi, you do not understand. A pig and a bird do not sit together to eat." Gandhi looked at him as a parent would a rude child and calmly replied, "You do not worry professor. I'll fly away," and he went and sat at another table. Mr. Peters, reddened with rage, decided to take revenge on the next test paper, but Gandhi responded brilliantly to all questions. Mr. Peters, unhappy and frustrated, asked him the following question. "Mr Gandhi, if you were walking down the street and found a package, and within was a bag of wisdom and another bag with a lot of money, which one would you take?" Without hesitating, Gandhi responded, "The one with the money, of course." Mr. Peters , smiling sarcastically said, "I, in your place, would have taken the wisdom, don't you think?" Gandhi shrugged indifferently and responded, "Each one takes what he doesn't have." Mr. Peters, by this time was fit to be tied. So great was his anger that he wrote on Gandhi's exam sheet the word "idiot" and gave it to Gandhi. Gandhi took the exam sheet and sat down at his desk trying very hard to remain calm while he contemplated his next move. A few minutes later, Gandhi got up, went to the professor and said to him in a dignified polite tone, "Mr. Peters, you signed the sheet, but you did not give me the grade." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

He says 'Just for fun, Ma, I'm going to bring over 3 women and you try and guess which one I'm going to marry.' The mother agrees. The next day, he brings three beautiful women into the house and sits them down on the couch and they chat for a while. He then says, 'Okay, Ma, guess which one I'm going to marry?' She immediately replies,'The one on the right.' 'That's amazing, Ma You're right. How did you know?' The Italian mother replies, 'I don't like her.'
