$1 movie theaters were the red flags warning everybody that the neighborhoods surrounding the theater would be murder holes within a few years.

Broadmoor in Baton Rouge

Ellis Isle in Jackson

But I watched a few $1 movies at each before the declines.

Rode bikes to the Broadmoor theater and saw Austin Powers. Snuck in Junior Mints and a 2L from the Eckerds that was right across the parking lot.

Leftover chicken and rice soup.
Dill salad from Costco.
Diet DP.

More like mixed salad greens with kale and cabbage and stuff with a dill seasoning powder and dill ranch dressing.

Really good!

Had to leave a movie early at Broadmoor because a molded ceiling tile fell and hit someone in the theater

I still don't trust it. They all still leach. I understand plastic ratings too.

Joking, but I work with a guy who filters his bottle water. Has one of those containers on his desk and filters all water.

Dude is on a pretty strict anti- inflammation diet.

My mom still made us stop at 711 on the way to the movies and get candy to sneak in

I went on my first date alone with a girl there to see Arachnophobia.

The floor was made of glue. At least that what it felt like.
