A few weeks ago my brother Robert, sister-in-law Laura, and I were going to the Rialto to see Hail, Caesar. They usually treat me to movies and the like but the funniest thing that I heard that day-- including the movie-- was my brother's response to the ticket taker's question about what movie we were going to see. He just asked for three tickets but forgot to mention the film. My brother gets all huffy and says "You are being nosey!" to the warm hearted ticket taker who just laughs off the joke.

Then they had a rather lengthy talk with one of the ushers about the merits of the various Coens' works. That was after everyone else had left the theater showing Hail, Caesar.

I am not sure how this "You are being nosey" would go in some other communities but it sure was amusing here in the Villages.

It takes a lot to rattle most Villagers.

I am amused and will steal the line.
At Publix, when the card swipe machine wants me to decide credit or debit, I will aanoune to it, "You are being nosey!"

Yes. I loved Fargo --both the movie and the continuing series.
