Typical Red Neck Towns :)

Friday night, the planets were temporarily aligned - Travis and I looked at each other "Hey, let's go the the movie" - Taken was finally at the El Rio. About 20 other people had the same idea - so luckily they had enough to run the movie. We settled into the non-reclining naugehyde seats (without cup holders) and watched the previews - amazingly they kept the picture off the ceiling. Then the movie began. It didn't feel right and the few couples around us all began looking at each other perplexed. It took several minutes into the introduction to verify that "Yup, this ain't Taken" Apparently the St. Johns theatre put Coraline in the Taken reel box. See what happened when grandma retired - kids in SJ can't read! We got our money back - too bad we won't have a night to go for another 6 months or so.

Amy, that is hilarious! I can't believe you didn't want to spend your date night watching Coraline...

...when you do get a chance to watch Taken, you'll have to let us know how it is.

Amy, you win for the best posts on the blog. I laughed out loud. It's just too bad your date night was ruined by SJ morons! :)
