...used to buy Donald Trump's toilet paper. 2. I almost stole someone's cat last weekend. 3. I would do dirty, dirty things to Tina Fey. 4. I have always felt destined for greatness. So far, this has been a total bust. 5. My favorite activities when I was young were building forts that spanned the whole playroom, dancing to Michael Jackson and throwing my brother down the stairs. 6. I work "That's What She Said" jokes into every conversation. (See TIME's list of T shirt-worthy slogans.) 7. My grandmother once told...
...Miss Spink (Jennifer Saunders) and Miss Forcible (Dawn French), a pair of venerable theatrical troupers endlessly recounting their glory days in the music hall. Coraline also meets a boy her age, Whybe Lovet (Robert Bailey Jr.), the grandson of the grande dame who owns the place, and a talking cat (Keith David) with dark secrets he eventually spills...

...rural Oregon. The figures are angular and mostly spindly, like undernourished Europeans after the war; they might be denizens of pestilential Vienna in the 1949 thriller The Third Man. Some of the characters are distinctly European, like Bobolinsky and the theatrical ladies. But even Coraline and the Cat, and certainly Other Mother in her final, spidery metamorphosis, lack the soft lines and winning personalities found in most U.S. animation. Indeed, the girl's "real" environment and her dream-nightmare one are equally remote from the reassuring landscapes in standard American cartoon features. That chilly visual vocabulary, along with a narrative...
...seems impossible that a handful of companies could put nearly 80,000 people out of work in a day. Caterpillar (CAT), Pfizer (PFE), Texas Instruments (TXN), Sprint (S), and Home Depot (HD) did most of the damage. What was not seen in the headlines was the thousands of smaller American firms which also fired people over the same 24-hours. Could 200,000 people across the economy have been put out of work in one day? Of course...
