well...heffalumps are elephants and woozles are weasels in pooh speak.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Aren't Heffalumps and Woozles a Disney invention?
No. Heffalumps and Woozles are in the original stories. And yes, they are supposed to be frightening.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I there are also Jagulars, who drop on you from trees.
I was just rereading a couple of Milne Pooh books the other night.

Yes. It's very important to watch out for those, and other Fierce Animals.

I suspect I'm going to be asking Pete to read me a Pooh story sometime in the near future. I'll just have to hope he sticks with the text, and doesn't add in anything from his recent bouts of Halo 2. I do not want to hear about Pooh and Piglet fighting the Covenant.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
t wonders what kind of baked treats and/or cash it would take to get an audio tape of Pete reading a Pooh story for Emma......

It's VERY creepy to hear Pete's voice coming out of my TV set, for the record. I'm thinking we may need to stage an intervention.

Hey. New board.
I just remembered the existence of the superhero name Gay-zer beam in The Incredibles.
The superhero that, conveniently, looked like Cyclops. And was named GAY-zer beam.
That's awesome.

I'll see what I can pull off for you.

Oh ... dear. Yes, intervention may be needed.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!
Bear in mind, he's reprising the role that made Michael Caine a star in Alfie.
Eh. He's playing an entirely different character called Alfie in a film that bears no resemblence to the Gilbert film
Did Alfie break Caine in the US? Because it was Zulu and (especially The Ipcress File which made him a star over here.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I thought HURRY SUNDOWN broke Caine in the US ...oh, you meant as a success?
In all seriousness, I don't know if IPCRESS was very big here, but ZULU I've seen written up as a turning point here as well. It probably didn't make him a star, but it got him attention.
