Yesterday I did a podcast on "Birthday" and I came up with some questions for you to think about

What was the best birthday you ever had?
How old were you?
Who was there, who did you invite?
Did you have it at home? Did you cook?
or you had it in a restaurant/ cafe?
Why was it the best birthday for you?
What feelings, emotions did you experience?
What were the gifts you were given?
Which one was the best one?
Who was the most memorable person at the party?

Today I decided to answer it myself. 

I didn't prepare - I just told it how it is. 

I hope you'll get an idea that you don't have to be perfect when you are asked questions. You don't have to be X Y Z... You can just be you and enjoy it...

There is great in the mindset if you'll accept it through listening&agreeing with it.

To Your Success!

CHISTES MEXICANOS

COSTUMBRE POLICIAL.

How long do you want a movie to last? When do you start looking at your watch and wonder when you can leave the darkness of the cinema?

Or maybe it doesn't matter because you watch everything on streaming services, and you can pause anytime you like.

But according to a survey from the US, the perfect movie length is 92 minutes — about the same as a soccer match.

A polling company called Talker Research asked 2,000 people how long movies should be.

Only about 2% said they thought movies should be longer than two and a half hours, while just 15% want to watch a movie that's more than two hours long.

Movies like Dodgeball, Kung Fu Panda and Toy Story 2 are all about 92 minutes long.

But data suggests that the most popular movies are getting longer and longer.

A website called What to Watch found that the average length of the most successful movies has increased from 110 minutes in 1981 to 141 minutes in 2022.

The Guardian reports that nine out of the top 10 most successful films of all time are longer than two hours. Three of them are longer than three hours.

However, some say it's not the length of the film that's important, but how good it is.

There are really long films that feel much shorter because they're so interesting, and there are shorter movies that you wish would just end fast!
