Reviews:
Rick reviewed 'Poker Face' on Peacock & says it is listed as 'mystery/crime/drama/black comedy & it's basically 'Columbo' & says the acting is wonderful. He looks forward to all the episodes & highly recommends the series

and Rick reviewed the latest episode of 'Murderbot' on Apple TV as very well done, absolutely exceptional and Skarsgård completely owns the role. And to Patty's questions, the books that they are based on are also very highly recommended.

Ken reviewed the movie 'Novocaine' as funny and 'hijinks ensue'. He rates it as worth full price - or subscribing to Paramount Plus. He warns that there are moments that the squeamish may not be able to stomach. Yochanan agrees & said he enjoyed seeing it in the theatre

Yochanan reviewed the live action, 2025 'Lilo and Stitch' & he really enjoyed it, although there were changes from the original. He thought Stitch's CGI was done well, but the other aliens were not done anywhere as well. He rates it as worth matinee, or full price if you have kids.
and Yochanan reviewed 'Karate Kid: Legends' as lots of fun and very nostalgic. He rates it as worth full matinee and maybe full price, if you like nostalgia. He enjoyed himself.

Lisa reviewed the 'Star Wars Ball' Peers dance that was a lot of fun. The costuming was excellent and people had great fun with making historic Star Wars costumes

and the rumor of the week was = 'Adjourned in honor of Sly Stone'
we adjourned at = 8:28pm [with the secretary feeling disgruntled]
there will be auctions after the meeting
