Daily Dose Weekend Edition: It's No Fluke

Movie Releases

Scope it, as in Horoscope: It's never too late ....ah, yes it is.

Bonehead Tip of the Day: You need a shot of anitbiotics for all that social media use.

The List: Weekend BO releases
1. "The Rite"
2. "The Mechanic"
Notes: There is still time to go out and see the Oscar nominated movies so you do not have to say, "I haven't seen these films." However, I would say "The Rite" is one heck of a scary movie, and I do not like the horror genre. I do like "The Exorcist" to this day, so this one is right in my wheel house. I have no idea what a wheel house is, so let's just leave it as a good movie.

Trivia: It's no fluke that there is something called a liver fluke. It gets into cattle after they drink infested water. And head to my uncle's house. Then that fluke goes straight to the liver and wreaks havoc, much like my uncle. Meanwhile, the liver is about four times as heavy as the heart. Sure, but my heart breaks more. Huh?

Closer: Where were you 25 years ago? Space shuttle explodes shortly after takeoff. I was working at my college newspaper, The Daily Vidette, Illinois State University.
