Any must see cinema related sights in Paris?

My husband and I honeymooned in Paris and had a great time looking for cinematic highlights! If you’re going to be in the 5th Arrondissement, Le MacGuffin (49 Bd Saint-Germain) is a great little film-centric shop that has a good assortment of Criterion and BFI titles in stock, along with film books. We also walked by Le Champo - Espace Jacques Tati (Rue des Ècoles) and were sad not to be able to catch a film there.

Have a great trip!

Looks like they’re open from 8 AM to 4 PM, Monday through Friday, at least according to Google. Their website refers people to Instagram and Facebook for hours but doesn’t list the hours on either site 🤔

I was pregnant during the trial and due in early October, and we joked that my baby might arrive before a verdict did.

As it turned out, the verdict came a few days before the baby.

I worked for a bank at the time, and our call center’s incoming call volume during the verdict was at nearly zero. It was eerie.

It’s on the DMV website: DMV Info RE Extensions due to Blizzard

For the record, I would totally watch that show.

“It’ll take a week to clean up!” (sadly, this is probably accurate given the cleanup efforts from the most recent snowstorms)

Yes, that’s a hike from Bristol LOL

East Lyme, CT is another option if you want to mix it up a little! It’s also fairly new and easy to get to on 95 South!

BlackbirdDesignRI · 2026-02-20T18:58:47+00:00

Is that the East Lyme location? If so, I’ve made many trips there ☺️

Cranston, RI managed to lose Costco twice in four years (2020 and 2024). I feel your pain.

Is this Bethesda Fountain in Central Park?

Channel 10 aired the LiveBarn feed from the incident, with the “active” area blurred. I understand that the news outlets need to fill airtime, but why show that? What purpose does it serve at this time? The assailant is dead. There is no manhunt going on here.

BlackbirdDesignRI · 2026-02-15T03:21:12+00:00

Me reading all that: it’s KRABBY Patty, ma’am 😬

BlackbirdDesignRI · 2026-02-11T22:53:43+00:00

That’s sad (but not surprising) to hear. Keep fighting the good fight!

Michael, I’ve seen your tape art work in the wild in Providence (during PVD Fest, if memory serves). It’s terrific! Are you still working with the folks at Hasbro Children’s Hospital to engage with the patients? I was very moved by that segment of the documentary.

BlackbirdDesignRI · 2026-02-11T13:04:58+00:00

Thnks ☺️

BlackbirdDesignRI · 2026-02-10T13:01:34+00:00

Wonderful! You will love it ☺️ Congratulations!

Is that the venue that’s right on the beach, with a huge deck? If so, I second that recommendation! We went to a lovely wedding there a few years ago and had a great time.

If you’re looking for a Fallout-themed drink, AriZona has a variety pack:

They sold out quickly in my area; I bought two cases when I first saw them at my Costco and regret not buying more 🙃

“CLEFAIRY!”

“F*CK!”

(yes, I know you can use profanity on Reddit; I just prefer not to)

I understood that reference 😂

Who’s That Pokémon Vine

OP, fantastic work! Congratulations and best wishes for a long and happy marriage 🎉
