Next week is interesting. Will Kevin Hart pull off another surprise hit, or will the rebooted Robocop or rebooted Endless Love take the top spot? Personally, I’ll be in line to see A Winter’s Tale, but I’ll put my chips on Robocop for the win. Tune in to see if I’m right.
Until then, happy movie going.

Suze tumbling down the charts once again. BAM!
Heard Lego is da bomb. Wanna see it. Did you Suze-a
Oh Susan… AWK AWK! Tumbling down the hole of defeat and while he wait for the rise to victory I fear it shall not happen for you ever. I will pray, pray to the heavens for another victory to trudge through the demons and devourers of hatred. Oh Susan, it’s time to rise like the Phoenix but you can’t, you fumble and tumble and stumble and I get sad. I must do a dance a dance for rain and a dance to happiness. It’s a new dance I’m naming it, Dance, Dance. I feel like that fits. Don’t you judge now.
On an interesting note, the concert is off. Apparently, this U2 are busy according to my comrades, doing what I am not certain. Perhaps they are working in the fields, like sweaty bohunkian men. But I somehow doubt it. My chums do not understand why they are not here to sing their ditties but you know Susan, I’ll find another way. I have sewn three ponchos this week and one had a bunny rabbit on the front without a front leg. That’s a lucky rabbit’s foot.
I wish I could be like other young equestrian women on the prowl, but alas I am the proverbial black sheep. I fear that the comrades I thought were bosom chums are evil phillies and hustle about like the faux sheep. I just wonder how long I can do this work. My fingers are bloody from the flipping of the letters and envelopes. Oh, how I wish I could go back to the land and live off berries and plants and turnip trees. They call me you know, they say, “Oh Wanda, we are dry.” Yes, I say. Without the dew of the heavens that is The Wanda you will dry up and die. Ah well. I’m stuck in the concrete jungle, toiling away in the truffle and muck.
Susan, I wish I had that turkey to live in my poncho. I might need him to crane his neck and sing his turkey song. I enjoy his turkey song, it’s a song I wish I knew the words to. All I hear is “gob Gob Gob Gobble.” You know Susan. You know the business of life. It’s such a turkey song.
I heard that the hobgoblins are taking over the forest. I wish the white witch would get off my back. I have a poncho, what more does that nasty witch want? She’s a nasty nasty witch. Thankfully her red hair is turning into a violet sky.
Now, Lanky one. He’s about to die. Susan I need your help. He pulled the magic armpit hair, he went to the other dimension but got stabbed my two dwarves and a leper. You remember his friend? Vommy? Of course you do, you introduced them. But Susan, Vommy has turned to the dark side. He is rabid and bit the Lanky one. The frenchman is all but lost. Give it up Susan, give it up. It’s done. The magic armpit hair didn’t work? I know you’re asking that, but it was too sweaty, the sweaty armpit hair took the Lanky One to a different place a place of slime and greed. Which turned Vommy evil. Of course you knew this. So… What to do?
We need to scream to the heavens… I found the chant in the woods, the hole in the tree didn’t have bugs so I’m thankful for that. The chant Susan, let’s say it together… “Vommy, Vommy, Vommy… Get it out of here… Vommy, Vommy, Vommy… Don’t bite that ear. Vommy Vommy Vommy Whoop Whoop Whoop!”
Whew…
Toodles, Toshes, and Tanacka!
