Boxer -- yes. lol. despite the title. I meant to finish yesterday but...
I have What Can You Lose? in heavy rotation since Sunday.
Can we have a return of the weekly "what did you watch" post? I know theaters aren't open, so there isn't a box office report, but it would be interesting to read about what others who post here are streaming - we might all get some recs. Thanks!
jules - that's a good idea.
peggy sue -- i need to listen to that right now. *opens spotify*
abzee - we already covered the changes. i imagine we'll have to keep talkin gabout them though.
Can I get ONE of the Oscars?
