Movies and Money

Box office revenues are in a record slump. Ticket prices are up. Popcorn and a soda cost more than the tickets!

You can buy the DVD for the price of two tickets, and lets face it, no one wants to go to the movies alone!

Tom Cruise finally got something right this year, though. He's being paid a percentage of the movie profits instead of $40-70mil up front. If only others would follow suit Hollywood wouldn't be so in debt per movie and desperate to make it back at the box office.

Maybe there should be a cap on actor salaries...They should never make more money per movie than the average Elementary Teacher, Police Officer, Fire Fighter, or Military Service Member.

Start the Party! Everybody's Here!

In 10 days my entire family will officially be back in WA state! One sister is moving with her hubby and 3 girls next Tuesday and the other is coming back from France the following Sunday. Then we will all be here!

I'm so happy! Now to get my hubby's family closer! Think of the block parties we could have!

In The Beginning

Here we begin another journey into the views of one mind lost in the history of today.
