Movie Star
Thought you may enjoy this story. Sandy and I went
to see the movie You've Got Mail . I'll give it 3 stars. Now my story.
We arrived at the theater just before the movie started. We rushed in to
get our tickets, the $65 box of popcorn and the $35 softdrink. Walked into
the crowded dark theater and attempted to find seats. Lucky us! Two empty
seats on the end of a row, my favorite kind. Remember I got the giant $35
drink.
Sandy goes in first and sits down. Now its my turn
to sit down while attempting to hold $100 worth of food. Just as I sat
down, the chair collapsed. Straight to the floor I go with a sound very
close to that of lightning striking a volkswagon. Scared the hell out of
the 300 pound man sitting next to Sandy. The rest of the people thought
it very funny. There I was, pinned to the floor in a mass of rubble in
the dark. My first thought was that I was in an earthquake. I saw my life
and $65 worth of popcorn flash before my eyes My second thought was that
I needed a good lawyer. I am happy to say that all is well, no broken bones.
My career as a movie critic has just ended. Happy New Year!
