Marvel films and most blockbusters are mind candy. You can go back as far as Harrison Ford in The Fugitive and earlier. As long as I know what it’s going to be before I plunk down my money at the cashier, then I’m not complaining. I guess what the esteemed directors are inferring but not brave enough to say, is that…

Take a look at Mick and Bianca Jagger.  He essentially married himself.

No offense taken at all. I was hoping someone would give me a good review so I’d take the time to watch it. Cheers!

Thanks.  Then I’ll gently tell Mr. Raboomdiay that perhaps his taste is in his mouth.

Mr. Raboomdiay watched this without me.  From what he told me about the movie, perhaps the best thing about it is Todd’s decor. 

Comic books. Or little graphic books if the kids are junior readers. I also give out little comic books that I pick up at a comic book store that are published for the express purpose of handing out for Halloween. I’ve been doing it for years and the kids seem to like it. (In other words, no one has egged our house…

That’s it.  If you’ve got the bucks, the probability of being screwed over is less.  Skip Carnival and Norwegian cruise ships.  Book on the Queen Mary II.

I had a friend who had been dating a guy for three months. My friend couldn’t remember (or didn’t bother to learn) the guy’s last name. They wound up living together for about 10 years. I’d like to think my friend did finally learn the surname.

My son is very intelligent.  If I tried the “show me five things that are blue,” it would work once and then he was on to me.  Next meltdown, no dice.

I will scream (and avoid the movie) if Branagh and his facial hair return as Poirot.

I would have given her a hug, then punched her in the face.

Don’t forget Leslie Jones and Pete Davidson (where was he this week, BTW?) almost always flubbing or breaking character.

Yup, I unloaded my mother’s cherrywood furniture last year at fire sale prices. Sad to see that happen, knowing that my mom’s stuff is better built and will last a lot longer than the Ikea crap that most people want. There are a lot of bargains on excellent quality furniture and you’re doing the environment a favor by…

Let’s just give the Greens a majority.

You kind of wonder, given all the other blackface photos lately from politicians’ pasts, why Trudeau didn’t come out himself and acknowledge this, rather than silently sit by, hoping nothing would ever show up.

“I’m sorry you caught me.”

When my son was in Grade 1, April Fool’s Day fell on a Sunday.  He was into drinking gallons of milk at the time and I warned him it would make him sleep a lot.  I woke him up on the Sunday morning, telling him he slept through Sunday and it was time to get up for school.  I played it exactly like a school day.  We…

The outcome of all of this will be that the men who want anonymity will stop donating. There will be fewer donations and fewer choices. (Disclosure: my son was conceived with sperm from an anonymous donor. I will leave it to my son to decide when he is an adult whether he wants to have a DNA test or not.)

I’m totally with her, knowing what it is to be a woman who has an undervalued salary compared to the men and experience.  Then again, I don’t have an agent negotiating for me.  She should fire her agent ASAP.

It costs, but whenever I’m in Britain, I go nutso in the Marks and Spencers food hall - lovely shrimp or chicken tikka sandwiches, all kinds of crudites - lots of choice. I keep hoping someone will bring the idea across the ocean.
