Just think of it as pay-to-play.

The House and Senate cut the funding for stuff like this in 'Bammer's new spending bill. They had to make it up somehow.

Pennsylvania is closng 25 State Parks all together because of the new Federal budget.

glad I have been out to see it already..
I didn't think it was worth the 7.50.. and it ain't worth 10.50 either.

I've got no problem spending $10.50 for something like this. You'll spend more money at a bad Will Ferrel movie (I know, using 'bad' and 'Will Ferrel' together in a sentence is redundant) and that’s an hour and a half you’ll wish you could get back.

Actually that is one reason I don't go to the movies often, they aren't worth the asking price.

And I found that I enjoy the museum in Harrisburg more.  It is closer and there seems to be more on display and they seem to make better use of the room they have.

Or I prefer to go to Pamplin Park or some place where I can spend hours there.  I didn't get the feeling I could spend hours in the new VC..

That's logic I won't argue with.
