Feel free to make your post about how your toddler looks just like Suri Cruise as long as you'd like...
...particularly well. But this book is so useful that this card-carrying member of the "dinosaur media" is not going to take the bait.

...Hoevels himself seems to have put the snafu behind him. "I am now absolutely fine again," he told local media, "but I will always for the rest of my working life have a strange feeling about this scene." After reprising the role Sunday, albeit with neck bandaged, Hoevels headed back to Hamburg Monday in preparation for his role in Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther. In that play, the long-suffering title character winds up shooting himself in the head. Someone might want to double-check...
