Just got a call from a friend who I'm not real fond of reuniting with.....what do I say??

We were friends years ago, at least 30+ years ago…..can’t even remember why we lost contact……she called me today and I was so surprised. She’s in Arizona and will be back in my area this month for Spring and Summer, then moves back to Arizona in the Fall. I really don’t want to see her…….what should I do?? She’s got my phone number and she gave me hers. I just don’t want to meet with her. Is that wrong?? and how do I get out of meeting with her?

Used to really like Sam Elliott, now?? Not so much

No one tell Sam Elliott about “Brokeback Mountain” because he already has his cowboy chaps in a twist about Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog” over its “allusions of homosexuality,” among other concerns.
The veteran actor, who is currently starring in Paramount+’s “Yellowstone” prequel “1883,” raged against Netflix’s Western, which is a frontrunner to win the Best Picture trophy at the Oscars later this month, during an appearance on Marc Maron’s “WTF” podcast on Monday.

You want to talk about that piece of shit?” Elliott told the host before launching into a tirade about why the film centered around Phil Burbank (Benedict Cumberbatch), a hardened and sexually repressed ranch owner in 1920s Montana, is a major misstep for the genre.
“There was a fucking full-page ad out in the LA Times and there was a review, not a review, but a clip, and it talked about the ‘evisceration of the American myth,’” he said. “And I thought, ‘What the fuck? What the fuck?’”

The cop that shot the guy in the movie theater over popcorn got acquitted!!!!!

A Florida jury acquitted retired Florida police captain Curtis Reeves in the shooting death of a man in a movie theater eight years ago.

Reeves was accused of second-degree murder and aggravated battery in the 2014 killing of 43-year-old Chad Oulson, who was on a movie date with his wife.

Reeves pleaded not guilty and claimed self-defense, previously telling authorities he feared he would be attacked after he and Oulson got into an argument. The argument started after Oulson sent a text message to his young daughter's babysitter during previews and Reeves told him to put his phone away, authorities previously said.
Oulson's wife was injured in the shooting but survived.
Jurors began deliberating Friday evening, following a nine-day trial, which Oulson's widow had hoped would end in guilty verdicts.
"Nobody is ever above the law," state prosecutor Scott Rosenwasser said during his closing arguments. &quot Reeves) killed another human being in a crowded movie theater next to his wife for no reason."
