...himself turns him into a superior being, the best of both species. Ham Egg, the exploiter of children down on earth, is a little bit Fagin, a little bit Stromboli from the Disney Pinocchio, and a whole lot rotten; but, thanks to Lane's vocalizing, he has enough vaudeville swank and showmanship to make him an irresistible cartoon villain. (The same can't be said for Sutherland's mayor, a one-note sociopath who risks Metro City's very existence in order to get re-elected. Why doesn't he just rig the ballot boxes like any normal despot...
...pants out her lines and flaps about frenetically - like Courteney Cox in Cougar Town, Thurman approaches portraying a 40-something as if she's auditioning for the part of a winded windmill - she just seems clueless. Or like a woman who didn't consider her choices carefully enough, locked herself in a prison of her own device and is now snarling like a caged tiger.

The prize is a regular column in the fictional Lunchbox magazine, paying $3,000 a month...

She's less a Mother Who Thinks than a mother who thinks she ought to be thinking...
When rains slowed enough for people living in the central coast of Vietnam to venture outside and assess the damage, they were stunned at what they saw. In the night, Typhoon Ketsana had unleashed thousands of logs and cut timber, which had ridden the swollen rivers down the mountains, bashing anything and everything in the way. The lumber, much of which is believed to have been illegally harvested old-growth timber, clogged rivers and jammed under bridges and piers. For residents in the area who managed to harvest the wood, the rains last month brought riches. But Typhoon Ketsana also...
