Where is my rain?!  The report said it was suppose to rain on Monday and then through the week.  I think we got maybe 20 minutes and that was it.  How can they call for 3 to 4 days of rain and get it completely wrong that badly??  I can understand if it was one day maybe but then get hardly none but seriously ... that much with nothing ... that is like picking a number between 1 and 100 and you pick 103.  Our science kind of sucks that we can't get something like that right or just a bit more closer to what it will be ... 4 days of rain and reality get 20 minutes ... just so bad!!!  So far off and kind of messes up planning a bit.  Get it right people!  Ridiculous I say!
Weekly Update:
So on Thursday night had a fun little event that I helped out with the 2nd year in a row.  It is Minnie's Moonlight Madness that took placed in Disney's California Adventure.  over 100 teams of 4 tied together went through the park trying to answer clues for points.  As they finished one task, they would get another one and then another.  The event is 2 hours from when they are released into the park and its just utter mayhem and fun. Money raised for the event goes to a local charity too.  I helped at one of the clue stations and the whole theme this year was musicals.  A fun time for a great cause and hanging out with friends and co-workers.

 At the movies:
No surprise here as Black Panther leaps to #1 with a 192 million open, above all expectations.  Despite attempts to sabotage people from seeing the movie from fake claims of assaults to fake reviews, this movie has set a new bar on so many different levels.  On track to potentially reach half a billion domestic, the repeat business will let us know this coming week!  Slight drop in numbers at #2 is "Peter Rabbit" with another 17.3 mil and still hopping along.  Drop down to #3 is "Fifty Shades Freed" earning another 16.9 mil as this one will go limp fast.  Holding on to #4 is "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" with 8 mil as it tries to climb up to 400 mil but may fall short.  Rounding off the top 5 is "The 15:17 to Paris" with 7.7 mil as we watch this one depart the station.

New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two this week with no real surprises here.  Up first at #7 is Early Man with 3.2 mil, well below expectations as it couldn't pull away from the rabbit crowd.  All the way down to #10 is Samson with 2 mil and exactly on predictions for this one.
