What a great punchline.

They broke ground on a new 150,000 screen megaplex two blocks from my office yesterday. I didn’t go, but I have to wonder about the business sense of it. Movie theatre attendance is down, and there are already lots of screens in Saskatoon. Admittedly, I have never been a big moviegoer, but the times that I’ve gone on a regular night, the theatres have been virtually empty. “Cheap” Tuesdays and big premiere weekend shows being the exception. Maybe I’m missing something, but to me it seems like building an expensive buggy whip factory after the automobile started making inroads.

I feel sorry for those poor buggy whip people - they always get trotted out as an example.

In William news - he’s nearly potty trained. If he’s not wearing a diaper or pants, he will go to the bathroom himself, lift the lid, and sit down to do his business. The only problem is that if he’s wearing clothes, he doesn’t always bother to make the trip. He’s still doing really well though — When we got home after the movie on Sunday night, he was still wearing a dry diaper, and made a mad dash to the bathroom.
