The New Store
by Steve West on June 5, 2022
At a local mall, I overheard an interaction between two budding entrepreneurs and an old man strolling along with a cane. A new store announced with a sign, "Opening Soon!" and inside were the two guys opening a few boxes to stack their wares on shelves. The curious old guy peered through the window, looked around intensely for a minute, then rapped on the glass with his cane shouting, "What are you sellin' here?" One of the guys (obviously not seeing the old guy as a potential customer) yelled back, "We're selling assholes!" Without skipping a beat, the old timer said, "You must be doing well, only two left!"
Seniors - don't mess with them. They didn't get old by being stupid.

Thorough Movie Reviews Revisited
Are you one of the group of people, like myself, who insist that they are not influenced by movie critics and make your film choices based on whim, fancy, instinct or some other method completely unrelated to some "professional's" opinion?

Maybe that particular reviewer deserves a second look since you two seem to be on similar movie viewing wavelengths. Go »It's 419, Do You Know Where Your Dealer Is?
