Hi all Venom hits the screens worldwide today but unfortunately the critics are underwhelmed. Perhaps it will be like last week's Night School which didn't impress the critics much but still did decent business. Also on the adult (and art circuit) is the account of a fictional relationship between Archbishop Desmond Tutu and someone with much to confess to. Moving to the younger ages for the tail end of the holidays, we have the latest big-screen adventure of Thomas the Tank Engine for the ankle-biters, while the older kids can enjoy The House With a Clock in Its Walls, now available in regular version as well. The sub-continent rolls out two Hindi and one Tamil film, in the romance, detective and crime drama genres. On the previews side, there's a premiere for local gal-comedy Baby Mamas next Thursday at Loch Logan, while those up in Angola get to see gritty revenge action thriller Peppermint from this week, while we have to wait until the end of the month.

I’m wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A late arrival at the Nashville airport left me standing in front of a car rental agent one night. In a heavy southern drawl, she asked, “Can ah help y’ all?” After processing my order, she said, “I have an accent. Is that OK?” “I don’t mind at all,” I said. “Being from New England, I have one, too.” She waited a minute before replying, “I meant the car. I have a Hyundai Accent.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- During a class about the effects of weather, my high school science teacher asked, “Does anyone know the first sense you lose when struck by lightning?” A classmate put her hand up and answered, “Your sense of humour?” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- After a health scare, I hugged my wife and whispered, “If something happens to me, the presents in my closet are yours.” She whispered back, “If anything happens to you, everything in your closet is mine.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCENE: Bar Me: What’s the Wi-Fi password?

Bartender: “You need to buy a drink first.” No spaces, all lowercase. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Teaching is not for sensitive souls. While reviewing future, past, and present tenses with my English class, I posed this question: “ ‘I am beautiful’ is what tense?” One student raised her hand. “Past tense.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Did you hear about the racing snail who got rid of his shell? A: He thought it would make him faster, but it just made him sluggish.
