Rescuers picked their way among crushed, decapitated, legless bodies. When medical help arrived, the water froze in the syringes which held pain-killing drugs.

...puppy days Mickey Rooney used to pain thousands and divert millions of cinemaddicts by obviously feeling as cocky as he acted. Now it is simply an act.
