Hi all Last week's local releases did pretty well at the box office, so you should check them out in addition to this week's new releases. First up and the only really wide release is episode three in the How to Train Your Dragon series, for the kiddies, which is showing in all formats. That's joined by two dramedies, one of which, Vice, has further award hopes while The Upside is more focused on the box office figures. Then we have another horror offering where you can enjoy the thrills of working in a morgue with The Possession of Hannah Grace, and a female- friendly arthouse release with serious award hopes and rave reviews in The Favourite. Lastly Bollywood rolls out a rom-com (which are scarce lately) with Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga. I forgot to mention last week that Holly-Bolly crossover production The Gandhi Murder opened on Wednesday. No previews this week.

Our daughter gasped and said, “That’s me when I’m bigger!” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A little boy asks his dad, “Where does poo come from?” His father is taken aback by the question but decides to give his son the facts straight up. “Well, son,” he says, “food passes down the esophagus by peristalsis. It enters the stomach, where digestive enzymes induce a probiotic reaction in the alimentary canal. This extracts the protein before waste product enters the colon. Water is absorbed, whereupon it then enters the rectum finally to emerge as poo.” “Wow,” says the boy. “So where does Tigger come from?” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the second week in a row, my son and I were the only ones who showed up for his soccer team’s practice. Frustrated, I told him, “Please tell your coach that we keep coming for practice, but no one is ever here.” My son rolled his eyes and said, “He’ll just tell me the same thing he did before.” “Which was?” “That practice is now on Wednesdays, not Tuesdays.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- How many 16-year-olds does it take to change a lightbulb? What-ever! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- When a family friend passed away, my granddaughter took her three-year-old son to visit the widow. As they approached the front door, she whispered to the boy, “Make sure to tell her how sorry you are.” He whispered back, “Why? I didn’t kill him.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- My young son declared, “When I grow up, I’m going to marry you, Mommy.” “You can’t marry your own mother,” said his older sister. “Then I’ll marry you.” “You can’t marry me either.” He looked confused, so I explained, “You can’t marry someone in your own family.” “You mean I have to marry a total stranger?!” he cried. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In church, my three-year-old insists on being the one to put the money into the collection basket. One Sunday, as the basket came toward him, he held out the envelope and asked aloud, “When is God coming to pick up his paycheck?” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- As a speech therapist, I was working with a preschooler on body-part identification and the k sound. To that end, I had him use Play-Doh to make a sculpture of me. “Is that my neck?” I asked, trying to get him to repeat the word. “No, that’s your chin,” he said. He added more Play-Doh. “Is that my neck?” I asked. “No, that’s your other chin.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------- My friends gave their science-loving son a small rocket powered by vinegar and baking soda. The boy and his friend went outside and launched and re-launched the rocket until they ran out of all the white vinegar. Rummaging through the pantry in the kitchen, he discovered a bottle of balsamic vinegar. Pulling it off the shelf, he told his friend, “Let’s break out the good stuff.”
