There hasn't been a bank put out of business in modern times due to a robbery.

Embezzlement will do in a bank - and so will bad loans.

Then she played "Roots!" backwards so it had a happy ending.

Last night we rented "The Muppets Movie" (cooincidence in real life!) and it was cute and a lot of fun.

Perhaps because our kids are now sullen youth teenagers, we really enjoyed it, thinking about watching the Muppets when our children were growing up.

I don't know what happened to Elmo, Cookie Monster or Oscar T. Grouch, but the rest of the cast was there and we recommend it.

Notice how Ann Falter mixes in fiction movies with those based on real life (as if fiction isn't based on reality, but that's another story).

I can tell you it is highly likely that one of the children poisoned in Massachusetts ("A Civil Action") was the grandchild of one of the plant's owners and operators.

Wonder why Falter didn't whine about "The Jungle." Perhaps she was too busy watching reruns of "Birth of a Nation."

Will this horrible, horrible persecution never end? Will Ann cry herself to sleep tonight? Oh, the suffering.

She's just pissed there aren't more transsexual as hero/heroine movies.
