Tribune's Star Theatre's Upcoming Schedule

I just got the list of movies that will be playing for the next several weeks.  Enjoy!

January 18th, 19th and 20th:  LINCOLN 

January 25th, 26th and 27th:  LINCOLN

February 1st, 2nd and 3rd:  LES MISERABLES 
Drama/Musical/Romance  PG-13  Released 12/25/2012  Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Anna Hathaway

February 8th, 9th and 10th:  GUILT TRIP
Comedy PG-13  Released 12/19/2012  Barbra Streisand, Seth Rogen, Julene Renee

February 15th, 16th and 17th:  JACK REACHER
Thriller Tom Cruise, Alexia Fast

I think that all of these movies are non 3D which means the following admission charges will apply:

Adults, 13 and older:  $5.00
Children, 4 through 12:  $4.00
Babies through 3-years-of-age:  F-R-E-E

Refreshments are also fairly priced. 

Folks, I urge you to compare admission and refreshment charges at your area theatres.  I think you may be shocked at the differences between those and Tribune's Star Theatre.  In many cases, Tribune is drastically less expensive.  In most theatres, the people working behind the counters are employees.  In Tribune, the people working are volunteers.  Believe me, it makes a big difference.

See you at the movies!

Food for Thought

As we said good-bye to a lovely lady yesterday, the officiating minister said many things that really touched my heart.  One of them is what I am about to tell you here.  There is total truth to it and it is something that we need to recognize and make changes to turn it around to what God wants for us and for our world.

"Today, people of the United States are much more tuned in to being 'politically correct' instead of choosing to believe in and support individual character of each of us."

Tribune--Movie-of-the-Weekend

This is one of the movies that I have looked forward to tremendously.  I am not alone.  Out of the many people whom have seen it, 12 Oscar nominations have been set.

LINCOLN

This Biography/Drama/History is rated PG-13.  Just released on November 16th, 2012, this movie runs for 150 minutes.  Showtime is 8:00 CST on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, January 18th, 19th and 20th.  Stars include Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field, David Strathairn, etc.

What many of us do not realize is that Abraham Lincoln, one of the best American presidents ever, was all of the strife that he was dealing with during the Civil War.  Struggling with the horrid deaths of so many people on both sides of the issue of slavery, he was also trying to handle the fact that there were people out of his own cabinet who had turned away from him as they believed that his convictions to end slavery were wrong.

Adults, 13 and older:  $5.00
Children: 4 through 12:  $4.00
Babies through 3-years-of-age:  F--R--E--E

Refreshments are also very fairly priced.

See you at the movies!

A Gentle Plea

Viruses and Influenza are now reported to be at epidemic proportion across the state of Kansas, etc.  PLEASE do your part and stay HOME whenever possible if you are sick.  No one else wants this junk.  If you must be out and about, purchase some face masks and wear them when you are out of your house.  If you are fine and are going out to shop, it might not be a bad idea to take along some anti-bacterial cleansing wipes to use on shopping cart handles.  This stuff is easy to pass on to others.

One of the main places that keep these illnesses passed on is at school.  If your child has had a fever, keep him/her home until the temperature has been normal for at least 24 hours.  Right now, people are complaining of respiratory and/or intestinal bugs.

I recommend that once you are feeling better that you wash your bedding, towels, washclothes, etc that you have been using during your illness, in hot water.  Our dryer has a sterilizing cycle.  I am using it  A LOT right now.  We are also using our sterilizing cycle in our dishwasher.  Of course, be smart about the laundry.  Use the hottest water and temperatures only on laundry that can handle it.  Heat and hot water can shrink many fabrics.
