With then-Tropical Storm Debby moving off and up the west coast of Florida, I convinced my wife that it was the perfect time to see the movie "Twisters" again. I surmised that with wind gusts consistently over 40 mph and torrential rain, we would have the movie theater to ourselves.

Boy, was I wrong. A full two weeks after the movie’s release, the theater was sold out. 

What?

As we quickly grabbed two seats with more people flowing in by the second, I began to talk to the people around me as we waited for the previews. I spoke with two families and three couples. My question being: "What brings you out to this movie in this weather?"

Five of the people gave me a variation of the same answer: "No politics. No lectures from the left. Just word of mouth that it is great entertainment."
