Dinner and a Movie? Maybe not.

"Date night," with "dinner and a movie," isn't looking like it is going to happen anytime soon, here, in The Sandbox. According to the chief of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, "Cinema is an evil." Well, okay, then. Going to the movies is out. There are plenty of other forms of entertainment, though... How about a nice walk through one of the malls?

Although that too, apparently, is not such a good thing. "Morality problems and complaints have increased with urban expansion and the proliferation of malls." Who knew? The article states that "market owners and citizens were demanding that the Commission step up its presence in the malls. Shoppers feel reassured when Commission staffers are present in the malls, and in turn sales increase." Interesting.

  2. Well, then, Shannon, I'd say you're long overdue for a date at the mall! Go ahead. It will be fun!!! Okay. In all honesty I don't think I've ever had a "date at the mall."
