My sentiments exactly. Just read a synopsis of it somewhere. I enjoyed Unbreakable but I’m skipping Split.

Parts of it... I had very mixed feelings. Strangely, many audience members have felt it to be much longer than it was; about 2/3 of the way through I couldn’t wait for it to be over, and as soon as it was I left instead of remaining for the credits as I usually do. The acting is great, of course, Olivia Coleman is…

But it took most of the movie before the character, or the audience, figured out that he was a superhero.

Try the public library. They might even be able to borrow it for you.

You can also save your resolutions for February. It’s a short month! It can be a resolution to do something, a la Simulord, or a kind of fast, like Dryuary. Last year I was wondering how long I could go before I ran out of clean clothes, so I didn’t do the laundry for the month of February. Luckily I had enough…

Ditto, catch The Gin Game if you are able to. It might seem dated and obvious now, but for this child of an alcoholic it was riveting.

I hope there are characters speaking Japanese. I never knew Takei could speak the language until I saw “Heroes”.

I read the interview with Walker yesterday and my eyebrows were definitely raised when i saw her praise for Icke.

His Broadway experience makes him a great host for the Tonys, though. .. Hey, maybe he should do the Oscars? What is the Oscar-host job but another late-night host gig?

During the palimony suit she disclosed that it was under pressure from Eastwood. It was front-page on People.

A little rum, lemon, and a cinnamon stick = hot toddy.

As long as it covers your backside!

Or people who are happy fixing cars/making furniture/playing music and don’t care that they’re 35 and don’t have any furniture.

“Take out this loan, it’ll pay for your degree and you’ll make it back in future salary.”

If people would just pay me to read, cook, and play with a cat...

I don’t know what her circumstances were but it’s sad to read, since I first became aware of her back in 1967 when she burst upon the scene, as they say, in “The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter,” a book I loved. The character is 15, but she lied about her age and said she was 17 (she was 21 and already married). I still have…
