I personally have not been to a movie in years. Having said that....my youngest son who turned 9 wanted to take 7 school mates to the new birds movie as part of his birthday party.

Like most Dads I do not tend to think things through to the end, and agreed that he should take his buddies to the movie. A nice way to spend a Saturday I thought.

My wife loaded them into the van and off they went.

I never thought another thing about it until a few weeks later I was reading our bank statement.

$158 dollars? At the movies? Holy Cow I said.

And that is how the argument between my wife and I started.

"That is what is costs" she said.

I replied with "Back in my day I saw a movie for 3 dollars."

It was then I realized I sounded exactly like my Dad.

I still can't believe what it cost.
