INCEPTION (PG13)
And here are your last chances for this mind-blowing aerobic for the cranium!
LEONARD DiCAPRIO and an astounding cast will either turn your grey matter to guacamole, or give you a unique cinematic experience you will want to see over and over! But, HURRY! It leaves THURSDAY!!

CATS & DOGS 3D* (PG)
Actually, one of the coolest parts of this movie is something you don't know about...
Before the film actually starts there is a 3D "Road Runner" (beep beep) cartoon that is brand-new, and a real blast!
This leaves THURSDAY, so get all the kids down to see it!

ZAC EFRON in a heart-felt tear-jerker about life and love after death, and before death too!

RANTS, RAVINGS & RUMBLINGS FROM THE HEAD HONCHO...

My thoughts on Decatur Celebration:
It's here again.
Many are very happy about it, and, many are not.
BUT...
It's here again.
This is the 25th year for it, and the last under retiring founder Fred Puglia's iron hand.

In this town, ANYTHING that lasts 25 years is a "Celebration"!

Decatur Celebration is such a hot-point for people...
Friendships are strained.
Marriages crumble.
The space/time continuum is altered.
Planets collide.

So, from the keyboard of someone who has been a huge VERY vocal detractor of Celebration for many, many moons, I will shockingly say this:
Come down to Celebration and have fun.



Remember if you are parking during DECATUR CELEBRATION in Garage B (the one across from our front door) you have to ASK THE PEOPLE TAKING YOUR MONEY FOR A VALIDATION FORM so participating merchants (like the Avon) can give you back your $5 parking fee! (with a minimum $5 purchase, of course)
THEY WON'T GIVE THE VALIDATION FORM TO YOU UNLESS YOU ASK!
SO, MAKE SURE YOU MAKE THEM GIVE IT TO YOU!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
Tuesday, August 10th will be the LAST "Tightwad Tuesday" of the Summer!
Those of you who were hoping you could see next weekend's "EAT PRAY LOVE" at Tightwad prices; it could not have happened anyway. "EAT PRAY LOVE" is a very special engagement, and could never have been included in the "Tightwad Tuesday" program. Sorry!
(BUT, the ONLY place WORTHY of showing EAT PRAY LOVE is THE AVON! It's where the "preferred" films for the more discerning play!)

-SEEYA SOON!
ENJOY THE 25TH DECATUR CELEBRATION!!
I'm Looking for you, and you and...YOU!!
-Skip Huston
