...most common reason for bad breath, though, is, to put it delicately, food molecules rotting in the mouth. Mouthwash masks the smell, but ultimately you have to get rid of the stuff. Brushing and flossing remove larger particles, but dentists suggest brushing the back of the tongue as well, where food residues and bacteria congregate. The microscopic bits that remain must be flushed down by drink or saliva (morning breath occurs because salivation shuts down at night). But if you're waiting for a true cure, it won't happen until we eat all our food in pill form...

...Being John Malkovich is wack. And I don't mean that it's incomprehensible--like Mission Impossible or The Thin Red Line. The movie is so deliberately logical and well thought out that you find yourself nodding with your mouth wide open in shock. (You gotta love Spike Jonzes. First came that prank he pulled on the MTV Video Music Awards as a slightly retarded "dance troupe" leader, then came the scene-stealing in Three Kings and now prancing Malkoviches! He might single-handedly move us out of the Adam Sandler/Farrelly Brothers gross-out comedy era.) Critics are comparing...

...Levin: Don't be aghast. I saw only the first SW. If I liked Alec Guinness (Obi Wan Kenobe), it was probably because I am an unconditional fan of his, especially his earlier work (Kind Hearts and Coronets, Ladykillers, Lavender Hill Mob, Horse's Mouth...

Hughes says he didn't see Jesus beckoning at the end of a tunnel of white light (although he claims to have seen Death opening his mouth). I would like to ask if he also didn't see Christ among the Aborigine family that found him, the Bidyadanga people who chanted to keep him alive, the Filipina nurse who wept for him, his friend Danny who raced to save his life, the police and the medics who got to the scene, the medical personnel who decided to fly him to Royal Perth Hospital, the people who operated for 13 hours...
