Newsletter and jokes 15 December 2017


 
Hi all 
 
May the Force be With You... :-) 
 
They're expecting the latest Star Wars episode to open north of USD 200  
million Stateside, and I suppose it will top the box office here too, after 
a few weeks of less-than-stellar new releases. 
 
Joining the Jedi Knights this week we have another pair of knights in the 
form of of Jackie Chan and James Bond doing some action that should maybe 
be left for younger stars...  
 
Then we have another West African rom-com, set in Dubai, while the  
art-house release, taking a look at Charles Dickens and his famous 
Christmas Carol novel, rounds out the new releases for today. 
 
On Thursday, Rangreza (from Pakistan) hits the screens worldwide. 
 
On the previews side, there are previews most places during the day on 
Saturday for the upcoming "Ferdinand", while there are premieres next 
Thursday night for the final instalment of the Pitch Perfect series. 
See the previews page and remember to book :-)

A good ole West Virginia boy won a bass boat in a raffle drawing. He 
brought it home and his wife looks at him and says, 
"What you gonna do with that. There ain't no water deep enough to float a 
boat within 100 miles of here." He says, "I won it and I'm a gonna keep 
it." 
 
His brother came over to visit several days later. He sees the wife and 
asks where his brother is. 
 
She says, "He's out there in his bass boat", pointing to the field behind 
the house. 
 
The brother heads out behind the house and sees his brother sitting in a 
bass boat with a fishing rod in his hand down in the middle of a big field. 
He yells out to him, "What are you doing?" 
 
His brother replies, "I'm fishin. What does it look like I'm a doing." 
 
His brother yells, "It's people like you that give people from ""West 
Virginia"" a bad name, makin everybody think we is stupid. If I could swim, 
I'd come out there and whip your ass!"

I've been to a lot of places but I've never been in Cahoots. 
Apparently you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. 
I've never been in Cognito either.  I hear no one recognizes you there. 
I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport... you have to be 
driven there.  I've made several trips.

Amanda Vanstone went to the beauty shop. She spent more than three hours in 
there. That was only for the estimate. Then she decided to get a mudpack 
and looked great for two days. Unfortunately then the mud fell off. 
 
The doctor gave Bruce six months to live. So Bruce thought he may as well 
enjoy himself and went off to the pub everyday shouting all his mates. As a 
result he had no money left to pay his doctor's bill, so the doctor gave 
him another six months. 
 
Doctor: "You'll live to be 60!" 
Bruce: "I AM 60!" 
Doctor: "See? What did I tell you?"
