Reviews:
'Rogue One' got reviewed a lot, very much enjoyed, worth multiple viewings, that the 3D was good - although the plot was not terribly subtle
Andy reviewed Hasbro's Pie in the Face game as simple, but worth full price
Dave C reviewed 'Office Christmas Party' as fun & clever & he enjoyed it
Brad reviewed 'Carol for Another Christmas' as about 9 minutes long, from 1964, on Turner classics as still good and relevant
Adrienne reviewed 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' as she enjoyed it & found it endearing & Mo also enjoyed it
Carole reviewed 'YaYoi' at Homestead & DeAnza, a Japanese restaurant as serving excellent food, with high-moderate price as highly recommended
Mo reviewed audio books in general as Amazon Prime gives a monthly credit for them & she recommends the F Paul Wilson Repairman Jack series
John O reviewed a whole slew of books, among them Scalzi's 'Agent to the Stars' as shallow, but fun
we did auctions
we adjourned at 9:12 pm
and the rumor of the week was: 'Somebody poke Adrienne'
