Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

JSS: NTN-- Movie Day

JSS-- Just Some Stuff


1. NTN-- Played NTN/Buzztime yesterday at Hello Folks in Fox Lake, Illinois, and was happy to see the Dennis back up on the boards at Fargo Lounge in Moline, Illinois. He had been off for months when the place didn't upgrade.

He dominates the earlier national boards and was always the "guy to beat" when we played at Folks and Donovan's Reef in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin.

Welcome back, Dennis.


2. MOVIE DAY-- Well, it rained and rained yesterday from about 12:30 on. After doing yardwork, I went over to Hello Folks for those great 99 cent Chicago Dogs (with Vienna Beef) and then saw two movies at the Fox Lake Theatre across the street.

Each cost $4 with senior matinee. The first was "X-Men Origins: Wolverine." It is a prequel and shows how the Wolverine came to be. Lots of action and "You wanted the Animal? You got the Animal!!" I wonder who wouldwin, Freddie Krueger or the Wolverine if they got into it?

I admit that I thought the X-Men shows would be too teenagey, but on a flight to Europe, it was showing and I enjoyed it.

Then, I saw "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past." Hilarious and a takeoff on "A Christmas Tale."
