Here's another one for you: a friend (also a New Yorker) apartment-hunting in the Bronx was very happy she wasn't carrying her service sidearm (a New York cop, by the way) when the lady offering her the place said her dog wouldn't be welcome, but she would be. When my friend the police officer said her dog was old and mostly slept a lot, the lady suggested she just euthanize him. You know, so she could then pay an outrageous amount of her tiny paycheck to live in a crackerbox studio in a Bronx brownstone that hadn't been rehabbed since 1962 (and then, only to make the apartments smaller and less convenient to move a sofa into.)

I would have been grateful to be unarmed at point, too.

I vaguely remember hearing about it, but blocked it out. There is only room for one Cutting Edge in my universe.

Also, because I must, ,Toe Pick!

A made-for-TV (or straight-to-video, it's hard to tell) affair, I do believe. ABC Family touted it as an original production, anyway.

Yep. TV movie. Starred Christy Carlson Romano (Ren Stevens/Kim Possible) as the daughter of the main characters from the original film. Yeah, I refuse to acknowledge it, too.

'Their' baby is clearly a pre-pubescent Hitler and with him as a father that makes sense.

Creepy, is what I'm trying to say.

Are we sure they didn't buy a baby off of Bjork? Coz that's who that kid looks like to me.

Yay! Perfume icon!

Yeah, I saw a report on German TV about it. They interviewed the director (Tom Tykwer, "Run Lola Run") and he seemed pretty cool about it. And it looks so pretty...
