Agree, these movies love to build the suspense.. new ones rely way too much on either terrible gory scenes... or just way too many jump scares.



I wonder if you seen "The Conjuring".

No. I stay away from the kind of movies for many reasons, but one being I work the graveyard shift in hospitals where I don't need any extra influence if you catch my drift.

I put Walt in his Halloween trick or treat costume for Saturday to make sure it fit the 100# of Happy Pup. He looked great, though he was not amused. Hopefully he will forget when the seniors start giving him treats.

Pic?

I have a serious question. If you were head of a company that hasn't had a profit in 20 years? What do you think would happen? And where do you think your stock price would be?

Can I tell you how much I love this picture? Let's go back to the basics.

Speaking of: I made my trip arrangements to go for my annual WDW trip in May! DD might not be able to go because of school so it might just be me and my son. Hopefullly she can still manage to come for 5 to 7 days of our trip.

When are you going in May? We go then too. Whether or not I go is another question.

We go at the end of May into June. The last couple of years we have started our first day into the parks on the 24 hour party at MK.

The primary sales demographic for Toys R Us is children. Although I agree that some parents need to do a better job of watching their kids, I also believe that a store catering to children, has a responsibility to take reasonable steps to consider what items they display.

I don't have children, but I remember how careful my own parents were to shield me from things that were inappropriate for children to see. My hunch is that if I was still a kid now, with my same parents, and we walked into a toy store and saw those "toys", my parents would have quickly whisked me away to another aisle. And they probably would have marched up to the customer service desk and demanded to see the manager of the store, to complain about the offensive items.

If the toy store insisted on carrying these items, then they should have been kept them in a separate area of the store (a cordoned off area with perhaps a turnstyle) that required age identification from customers to enter (adult only, or 16+).

or just keep the toys in the "back area" and only show the catalogue to adults.

or anything with possession or satanic stuff. One of the hospitals I work at has many stories and everyone I have worked with there has experienced something there. Not possession though.

Or, in other words, with Jack, I call it, "tough love" !! Now, if only he'd mend his misbegotten ways . . .

I love Jack. He'd fit in well here.

I'll try and get Walt's Halloween photos at the seniors trick or treat party tomorrow.

We usually go in the middle of the month

I'm not a fan of toys with meth in a kids venue. Wouldn't want *adult* films in back room and catalog pick'ns either. Nor would i want toys like this sold at disney either for the same reason. I look at it as there are plenty of *adult* only retails and mail orders where the small demographic of adults that want toys with meth accessories can go that places like Toys R Us just shouldn't. There are minors that work there too.

Getting the idea @StarWarsGirl95 is still under the weather.

I'm starting to get better. Just still not great. Breakfast this morning was chicken noodle soup and Ritz crackers because that was all I could stomach. But still better than the past few days.

Hoping she feels better.

Sympathy like for her. Hope she is OK.

Thanks. Getting there.

 

[JenniferS]

Never read any of her books. Never really heard of her really until Doctor Who

Oh my!

 

[seahawk7]

So I'm thinking of reading Gone Girl then seeing the movie. Anyone read it yet? I heard it is a slow starter but then gets good.

Do you know what's horrible? When people way older than you shorthand words and everything. It makes me feel I'm alone in this world sometimes.

Haha, yes my mother and my grandmother use way more shorthand than I do. My grandmother uses it less since she got her iPhone, but sometimes she still uses shorthand. She also once sent me an email with the entire content on the subject line.
