Newsletter and jokes 16 September 2022


 
Hi all 
 
Three new releases this week, kicking off with Where the Crawdads Sing,  
which is the film version of the YA best-seller. The film found distinctly 
more favour with audiences than with the critics, who nevertheless praised  
the lead performance. 
 
On a rather different tack, we get an early start to Halloween season with 
the highly-rated (press and public alike) horror, The Black Phone. 
 
From India, we take a look at class struggles in the Tamil language crime 
drama, Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu. 
 
There are previews (again!) for the upcoming rom-com Ticket to Paradise, 
at selected venues next Wednesday. Book early :-) 
 
New this week 
 
* Where the Crawdads Sing (13 LSVP SV) 
* The Black Phone (16 LVHD) 
* Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu (Tamil)(probably 16)

An inchworm is just a centipede that didn’t make the switch to the

The four (American) seasons are depression, allergies, tomatoes and spooky.

I’ve started investing in stocks, mainly beef, chicken and vegetables. 
 
One day I hope to be a bouillonaire.

The man at the tuxedo store kept hovering around me, so I asked him to  
leave me alone. 
 
He said, “Fine, suit yourself.”

When I was a teacher, I’d ask students to find a word in the dictionary, 
give the meaning and use it in a sentence.  
 
My favourite answer was: “My word is pregnant. It means carrying a child, 
like the fireman went up the ladder and came down pregnant.”

My daughter has just learned how to wiggle her eyebrows.  
 
She asked me if I could do it, so I did. Then she said,  
 
“Wow, you can do it so fast! It must be because you only have one eye-brow  
so it’s easier.”

I was babysitting my five-year-old grand-daughter and as a treat I took her  
to McDonald’s to get an ice cream cone.  
 
When she finished, I asked if she enjoyed it. Her response was, “Yes, but 
now my tummy’s cold so I think I need fries to warm it up.”

My seven-year-old asked if I could get him something so he could send a  
letter the old-fashioned way. 
 
Paper? An envelope? A stamp?  
 
No, he wanted his own email address.

I threw a boomerang at a ghost the other day.  
 
I knew it would come back to haunt me.
