Tonight my cousin and I tried to go to a free screening of Napoleon Dynamite at the Bijou. I rsvp'd on-line but was aware that it was still first come first serve. Anyway, we got there an hour early which was a bit of a risk but I thought we would still make it in. However, when I asked the girl at the box-office if the screening was tonight she said, "Yeah, did you make a reservation?" I said, "Yes." expecting her to then look at a list of some sort for it, but instead she said, "There are no more seats." This really pissed me off. I knew ahead of time that despite my rsvp it was still first come first serve, I took my chances and it didn't work out. What made me angry was that she asked me if I had made a reservation, already knowing that it was full and she was going to send me away. The Bijou may have just lost a customer, two if you include my cousin. Except that they may be the only theater to ever show The Door in the Floor, so I might make an exception for that.
Peter, I'm sorry I watched your channel. I don't watch it too much, but some things, as you know are very appealing and interesting. All I know for sure is that you and I will be discussing Home Movie. Those people were very strange. I found the guy from Louisiana to be the least strange, and kind of endearing actually, especially at the end when he is driving his boat through all those big green lily-pad type plants. Maybe some of them were lily-pads. It kind of made me sad too. Even though I thought the people were sort of oddballs, none of them seemed to have any doubt of their purpose, they all seemed satisfied with their lives completely, and were happy with their home and what they did. I hope I eventually figure out who I want to be. I don't want to be that lady from Hawaii, but I thought her house was the coolest, location wise.
