Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Somebody tell me I do not need this camera.

Was I reading the description right, that camera requires actual film? And you buy it and develop it through the company that sells the camera?

And in too appropriate timing, I just got told that Darby probably needs knee surgery in both hind legs.

I'm kind of gutted, given past history.

Because books.

Oh, brenda, I'm sorry. How come? Poor Darbs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm sorry, brenda.

Superman saves man hit by car

Medical doctor Heng Khuen Cheok saw a pedestrian hit by a car in Melbourne, Australia on Saturday. He rushed to help but was initially rebuffed. Why? Because he was dressed as Superman -- part of his bachelor party hijinks that evening.

"One of the man's friends was crouching next to him and he took one look at me in my Superman costume and was telling me to go away," Dr Cheok said.

"He relaxed a bit when my friend told him we really were emergency doctors."

Together with the injured man's friend, they stemmed the bleeding to the victim's forehead and kept him stable until an ambulance arrived.

A swelling crowd of bewildered passers-by thought the incident was a set-up.

Probably degenerative. I don't know. The surgeon is looking at her this afternoon.

Oh, no, Brenda. I'm sorry.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, no, brenda! Poor Darby. Poor you!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, brenda, I'm sorry. Poor Darby.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Poor Darby!

smonster, it does make your skin more sensitive to the sun. In your case, I'd use it at night, maybe three times a week, not every night, and def. use a good sunscreen with a physical blocker like titanium dioxide every day. You're sweating a lot, though, and you don't really have time to go reapply sunscreen every hour. You're in a sitch I haven't been in since college! Outdoors every day working hard. Honestly, though, you're young and your skin is good - the best things you can do for it right now are to eat a lot of carrots and stop smoking.

The camera does use film. I loved photography when I used a film camera, and have lost interest since I went to digital photography. I'm looking for something to rekindle my love of that hobby. The company that sells the camera does do processing, but you don't have to develop it there. There are a couple places in my town that develop medium-format film, but the company's prices are actually cheaper. It can be an expensive hobby for someone who doesn't develop her own film, that's the only thing that's stopping me.
