Got into the chorus of two local musicals only to discover it's "pay-to-play" theatre. My friend had to pay her membership fee in installments. So that's out. Nice to be selected though.
In other news, my 12-year-old gets her tonsils out on Friday. Does anyone have positive stories about minor surgeries? Anything to assuage the anxiety would be helpful...

My middle daughter, Claire, had her tonsils out when she was 15. Best decision we ever made. She was getting strep throat monthly it seemed, so it was the best solution for us.

She was out for a good week afterwards, but is now as sassy as ever at 19. It will be all right.

No Tommy Lee Jones
Just watched not good but not bad still prefer the original anyday over this just not the same without Tommy Lee Jones and will smith. Nice to see the worm guys get a cameo there were some laughs to be had but that was about it for me

Absolutely action packed film! So well done, incredible casting & interesting plot. The transitions between scenes and just during fight scenes themselves are so well done & incredibly impressive. A kind of collision of two different spy worlds was interestingly done too & made for a nice comparison & means a 3rd film can always be made (which I think I saw it is being made!)

Entertaining, action packed, funny at times, nice actor's performances and battle scenes. Badass women included (they actually appear much stronger than Aquaman ?) (0 more)
DC tries as always to be darker and funnier than Marvel, and fails. CGI could be better, and the love story less cheesy in my opinion. (0 more)
Exceeded my expectations
All in all, better than most DC movies, apart from. Wonder woman.

A nice insight
This was an entertaining read and a good insight into Martin's life and career. It only goes up to 2013 but it contains some good reading. From Men Behaving Badly to Doc Martin this chronicles of one of the most recognised actors on british television. Well worth a read.

Odd but sweet sentiment
When I heard the story of how the book came to be I almost didn't believe someone would go around in a makeshift ambulance giving poetry to heal but the poetry is uplifting and really helps when you're down - no it's not going to take those feelings away but it's nice to know others have the same as you.

Received as a gift
It's nice to have for listening to podcasts or for quick Google questions hands-free. I don't really know all the features it has so I don't use it as much as I probably could.

I'm being nice by giving it a 6 out of 10. I think this show is worse than South Park at times with the dirty humor. I like most shows with adult humor, but this and South Park are too much. Although one thing I have to say is it is very creative. Lots of weird stuff in it, which I like.

This is a collection of seven short stories in manga format. Most of the stories were fine, considering the short length. My only real complaint is that the last story should not have been the last. The book should have ended maybe with one of the first few, instead. The stories were all fairly different from one another, which was nice.

Not bad!!
Not a bad reboot to be fair!

Nice up-to-date well picked actors, only thing that got me is the new soon to be angel wasn't all that phased that these spy girls have come and her life is endangered. But apart from that brilliant film plenty of action and plenty of comedy, definitely worth the watch!
