Newsletter and jokes 30 September 2016


 
Hi all 
 
Holiday time again... enjoy. At least today looks a bit like spring, unlike the 
last few days. 
 
Two big releases this week, one for the kiddies, which has done very well 
internationally already (we're getting it a bit late), and another for older 
patrons. 
 
There's also a new SA Afrikaans rom-com to put you in the mood for love... 
 
And lastly, a Hindi bio-pic of the Indian cricket captain, and a German  
post-WW-II investigate drama. 
 
On the previews side there are previews at selected cinemas next Thursday  
evening for The Girl on the Train. See the previews page and remember to book. 
 
Final tidbit: Noem my Skollie has been selected as South Africa's entry to the  
Foreign Language Oscars for this year. Congrats... it's still on circuit.... 
 
Enjoy :-)

Thoughts 
 
1. My goal for 2016 was to lose just 10 pounds. Only 15 to go. 
 
2. Ate salad for dinner. Mostly croutons & tomatoes. Really just one big 
round crouton covered with tomato sauce. And cheese. FINE, it was a pizza. 
I ate a pizza. 
 
3. How to  prepare Tofu: 
a.  Throw it in the trash 
b.  Grill some meat 
 
4. I just  did a week's worth of cardio after walking into a spider web. 
 
5. I don't  mean to brag, but I finished my 14-day diet food in 3 hours and 
20 minutes. 
 
6. A recent study has found women who carry a little extra weight live 
longer than  men who mention it. 
 
7. Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to 
walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel. 
 
8. Senility has been a smooth transition for me. 
 
9. Remember back when we were kids and every time it was below zero out 
they closed school? Me neither. 
 
10. I may not be that funny or athletic or good looking or smart or 
talented. I forgot where I was going with this. 
 
11. I love being over 70. I learn something new every day and forget 5 
others. 
 
12. A thief broke into my house last night. He started searching for money 
so I woke up and searched with him. 
 
13. I think I'll just put an "Out of Order" sticker on my forehead and call 
it a  day. 
 
14. November 6, 2016 will be the end of Daylight Savings Time. Hope you 
don't forget to set your bathroom scale back 10 pounds on Sat*rday night. 
 
15. Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.

I recently spent $1500 on a young registered Black Angus bull. I put him 
out with the herd but he just ate grass and wouldn't even look at a cow. 
I was beginning to think I had paid more for that bull than he was worth. 
Anyhow, I had the Vet come and have a look at him. He said the bull was 
very healthy, but possibly just a little young, 
so he gave me some pills to feed him once per day. 
The bull started to service the cows within two days, all my cows! 
He even broke through the fence and bred with all of my neighbor's cows! 
He's like a machine! I don't know what was in the pills the Vet gave him 
......... 
but they kind of taste like peppermint!!..

I've joined Alcoholics Anonymous. I still drink but I use a different name. 
 
 
Marriage is like a witness protection scheme.You get new clothes, home, 
hair cut & you can't to see your old mates any more. 
 
I met a bloke with a cucumber up his nose and a banana in his ear. "I feel 
ill" he said. "Try eating sensibly" I said. 
 
I was in a fight last night & the bloke pulled a razor out. He'd have used 
it too, if he'd found somewhere to plug it in.

A rerun of some puns....

a weapon of math disruption.

work.

other, "You stay here, I'll go on a head." 
 
14. I wondered why the baseball kept getting bigger. Then it hit me. 
 
15. A sign on the lawn at a drug rehab center said, "Keep off the Grass."
