...heterosexual who derives endless amusement from the lengths to which some men will go to avoid appearing even faintly effeminate, which of course is wrongly equated with big, bad homosexuality. We've all seen the momentary panic in the eyes of a man who just admitted he liked "Bambi," or heard the hasty recantations of one whose last statement might possibly be construed as somehow something that a woman would say. I think that's hilarious--not that I never do the same thing. I and a few friends once wore pantyhose to school after some guys on our swim...
...little people the three-and-a-half-year-old twin cousins reign, and references to "pee-pee juice" and "stinky head" generate ongoing hysteria. We quickly adapted to most aspects of our temporary home: Cheerios, cheese sandwiches and jokes about excretory functions served us well. We watched Bambi, played hide-and-go-seek in the dark hallways of the aquarium and got to be veloceraptors in prehistoric playground battles.

Hyperion has also begun a sketchbook series of drawings from its early works; the first is a beguiling Bambi. In concert these volumes illuminate the unseen artistry that helps create movie magic...
...changing Clause IV," says John Cogger, president of the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers. "It's our party, created by my union in 1899." It took two tries, but Blair finally won. Instantly, the man some thought of as smarmy and whom the press had nicknamed "Bambi" instead became known to his party opponents as Stalin. Today the prospect of victory mutes all criticism. "You will not see any hostility between the trade-union leaders and Blair either publicly or behind closed doors," says Cogger, "because it is so important to win this election...
