Snow started falling on Thursday night, and we may get as much as 6 inches of snow by Saturday Morning. Phyllis Ehlers was planning to visit her Mother, Agnes Hahn, while we are still in the Christmas season. She may have to change her mind. The weather looked like this when Phyllis left for home on Thanksgiving weekend. All of us here at the Holabird Advocate know that God will be with her to guide her in whatever she decides. UBS to Expand Blogging Scope The Universal Blogcasting Service will be unveiling a few more blogs in the next year. A fictional blog with a western flavor called "Bar BQ Ranch" a financial blog called "Hinkle Brothers" and a "members only" blog for men to be named later, which will come out on February 2. Possible names are "He-man", "Macho", or "Stud Muffin". The Holabird Advocate Vote Caster will be used to choose the name. Dish Movie Review by Jerry Hinkle Holabird Advocate Publisher The Dish 500 satellite system has a wide selection of movies and movie channels to choose from. The Sundance Channel had a movie called "Where the Buffalo Roam". And you know, I didn't see one darn buffalo in the whole flick. The Movie is a waste of 2 hours of our time. Bill Murray stars as "Hunter S. Thompson". A real life man that I'd never heard of until he blew his brains out earlier this year. If Murray's portrayal is anything like the real deal, it's too bad he didn't end it all 30 years ago. The movie had no real plot to speak of. It was Bill Murray being Bill Murray, which was very tedious to watch. I do have one good thing to say about this movie. It was rather entertaining to see Peter "Frank Barrone" Boyle as a long-haired 1960's hippie. I kept expecting him to say "Holy Crap". The real life Thompson was supposedly the basis for "Uncle Duke" Doonesbury. Perhaps Gary Trudeau should have written this script. He couldn't have done a worse job of it. Until next time, remember, You pay for movie channels, so watch a good movie if you can.
