Hi all Well the roads are getting a bit quieter in the mornings. Guess I have the students and matrics to thank for that. While we sit and contemplate the coup that is not a coup, let's see what's on at the movies... The big release this week is Justice League, which is one of those movies where the critics went "meh" and the crowds streamed in to enjoy... As a bit of counter-programming to all that action, we have an arthouse release looking at the back story behind Wonder Woman, which of course involves two wonder women... Also on the art circuit, a look at an attempt to assassinate one of Hitler's henchmen, during the early part of World War II. Moving on to more pleasant things, we have a new local Afrikaans comedy drama, with a Christmas theme. Staying with Christmas (guess it's early this year) we have an animated look at the nativity story, told from the point of view of the animals involved. Despite the cheesy premise, it's got above-average reviews so far. Lastly the Indian subcontinent provides a Hindi comedy, and a detective thriller releasing in both Tamil and Telugu. On the previews side, there are isolated previews for Disney's upcoming Coco on Sunday afternoon, and a handful for the new Murder on the Orient Express, next Thursday evening. See the previews page and remember to book. Lastly there are some screenings for Mozart's Die Zauberflote on at the Nouveaus.

They believe he could be following some kind of pattern A super model is marrying the engineer from Thunderbirds but will keep her surname. She'll be known as Claudia Schiffer-Brains. I went to the gym and asked the trainer, what kind of machine I should use to make myself more attractive to women? He said "Cash Machine" Paddy was waiting at the bus stop with his mate when a lorry went by loaded up with rolls of turf. Paddy said, 'I gonna do that when I win the lottery.' 'What's dat?' says his mate. 'Send me lawn away to be cut.' says Paddy --------------------------------------------------------------------------- An oldie... A husband and wife were having dinner at a fine restaurant when an absolutely stunning young woman comes over to their table, gives the husband a big kiss, tells him she'll see him later, and walks away. His wife glares at him and says, "Who was that??!!" "Oh," replies the husband, "that was my mistress." The wife says, "That's it; I want a divorce." "I understand," replies her husband, "but remember, if you get a divorce, there will be no more shopping trips to Paris, Milan or Tokyo, no wintering in the Caribbean, no Lexus in the garage, and no more country club. But... the decision is yours." Just then the wife notices a mutual friend entering the restaurant with a gorgeous woman on his arm. "Who's that woman with Jim?" she asks. "That's his mistress," replies her husband. "Oh!!," says the wife, "... Ours is prettier." --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I entered a pun competition in my local paper. I sent two lots of 5 entries and thought at least one would get published. But no pun in ten did. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I live in my own little world, but it's OK. Everyone knows me here. I don't do drugs. I find I get the same effect just by standing up really fast. I don't like political jokes. I've seen too many get elected. The most precious thing we have is life, yet it has absolutely no trade-in value. Every day I beat my previous record of consecutive days I've stayed alive. No one ever says, "It's only a game!" when their team's winning. Ever notice that people who spend money on beer, cigarettes and lottery tickets are always complaining about being broke and not feeling well? Marriage changes passion . . . suddenly you're in bed with a relative. Why is it that most nudists are people you don't want to see naked? Snowmen fall from Heaven unassembled. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- During a lull over a recent dinner, Melania Trump leaned over to chat with the Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson. "You know, I bought Donald a parrot for his birthday in June. That bird is so smart, Donald has already taught him to say over two hundred words!" "Wow, that's pretty impressive," said Tillerson, "but, you do realize that he just speaks the words, ...he doesn't really understand what they mean." "Oh, I know," replied Melania, .........."neither does the parrot." --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Husband and wife had a tiff. Wife called up her mum and said, "He fought with me again, I am coming to live with you." Mum said, "No darling, he must pay for his mistake. I am coming to live with you."
