"Stuck on You" sticks to your heart (Dec 12 2003 16:45 GMT) - How refreshing it is to report that after fat jokes (“Shallow Hal”), multiple personality mishaps (“Me, Myself and Irene”) and bodily fluid blunders (“There’s Something About Mary”), Peter and Bobby Farrelly have pieced together their most sensitive and emotionally satisfying film to date.

I should have went to their college. Four years of college taught me that working at a college newspaper will not get you laid, and sitting around lamenting that fact with fellow editors does little to help the problem. No, Will, it wouldn't have helped. |

This just in: Europeans don't ... (Dec 12 2003 16:41 GMT) - This just in: Europeans don't give a shit Europeans have no clue and little interest in the ongoing Euro-constitution discussions at the EU summit. Ordinary Europeans have told the BBC they have little understanding of what the leaders are talking about. In Paris, people who spoke to the BBC's World Today programme either said they had "no idea" or hoped it would be a "constitution like the French one with liberty, fraternity and peace in the world". |
