Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain


Sans toi, les émotions d'aujourd hui ne seraient que la peau morte des émotions d'autrefois.

Circa March/April 2002, I was back in NYC from working in Shanghai for a short break. Amélie was playing at the Angelica. I was planning on seeing it but through a various series of events (or non-events), I didn't get to see to it.

Fast forward to October 16, 2005 - I finally got a chance to see Amélie on the big screen at a midnight showing at the Clay Theatre. This movie is now on my personal list of all time favorite films. I would have probably never seen it if I didn't come to San Francisco.Posted by Picasa

Cat got your tongue?


Meet Five-Toes, The Two-Tounged Cat

This little kitty has made it into the record books.

Greensboro, NC -- Let us introduce to you Five-Toes, a one-of-a-kind cat.


The Dobson feline was born with five toes on each paw, hence her name.

But what makes her even more unique is the fact she was born with two-tongues.

Her owner Bill Whittington remembers the big surprise he got last December.

"I started out and she flicked them tongues out and with a yell I let out. I believe everybody and his brother would have heard it, if they'd had been awake."

He says people laugh about her, until she shows her tongues.

Whittington says five-toes is the only one of her kind. And Ripley's Believe It Or Not agrees. The keepers of unusual records is featuring five-toes in their 2006 guide.

Five-Toes paid a visit to the WFMY Good Morning Show set on Thursday. Posted by Picasa
