Actually, it happened outdoors in a public area, so the whole thing was probably attracting too much attention for the attacker.

That makes more sense, but then it really isn't being driven off with the lightsaber. OTOH, it doesn't make much of a story without the lightsaber.

True. Without the lightsaber it's "Kid Screams, Embarrasses Attacker". And if that were newsworthy "Kid Screams in Grocery Store, Mortifies Mother to Death" would be top of the news cycle with a bullet.

Happy birthday , ita.

Susan, a plan is the best place to start - and you have a very good and sensible plan there. Keep the battle stratagy moving forward.

I was listen to NPR this am. As i suspected a number of republicans called in and said they'd vote for Obama over Hucklebee ( all spellings of politicians names subject to whim )

Kidman definitely used to be a curly redhead.

But she looks so much better with red hair! I think.

I think she went strawberry blonde after her marriage broke up. Then her hair just got less and less red as her face got more and more tight.

I think she went strawberry blonde after her marriage broke up. Then her hair just got less and less red as her face got more and more tight.

So she got less and less red while her ex got more and more of the crazy. I'd say she got the better end of the deal.

Oh, I guess she did have red hair! And she does look better. But in Far and Away (picture: [link] they keep referring to her as a redhead, but her hair looked blond. I think that is where I got the impression.

I first saw her in Dead Calm, so I have trouble thinking of her as anything but a redhead.

Apparently, the blonde is partially that she's gone hella grey. (I can't remember which gossiop blog had close ups of her roots, which is a sign I read too many of them.)

It has the unfortunate effect of making her look beiged out, though.

Apparently, the blonde is partially that she's gone hella grey.

But the sheer amount of maintenance required to keep the blonde (and the Botox) could also be used to maintain the strawberry, at least.

She just looks so fantastic in Moulin Rouge (ignoring the lipstick), that I don't know why she wants to wash herself out with the blonde.
