...This kind of project is extremely time-consuming. Every letter is picked from innumerable drawers of type to be strung into a line on a 'composing stick'. Almost all the surfaces in the room are piled under with tiny spears of lead, each tipped with its own character. The tables look beset by a plague of silver locusts. When the letters have been collected they are laid flat on the bed of the press, where the text is meticulously spaced out and held together by flat strips of metal called 'furniture'. The arrangements of this spacing material form the almost...
Harvard has had a difficult time getting set-up in the offensive zone, especially with its second unit. The team's best stick handlers are its forwards, so Mazzoleni has tried to have them carry the puck through the neutral zone, but too often they have run out of options by the blueline...
...satisfying enough on both an intellectual and an emotional level, but the very concept of Sweet and Lowdown, with its invented biographical framework and loosely connected scenes, works against the film burning itself in your memory.

I thought not, and amid the thunderous "U-S-A" chants I found myself cackling uproariously - and even flashed a passable Serb salute for a few seconds before getting scared and holstering...
...Pooh and Tigger playing in the leaves for autumn, Pooh sledding through snowflakes for winter, and Pooh and piglet surrounded by a sunshine and clouds for spring and summer. It's a nice way of bringing the outdoors inside my room. My walls are covered with Winnie the Pooh stick-ups, which are a really nice way of brightening up all the white space. I guess I'll just list everything else I have: Pooh desk lamp, Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore pencil, pen, crayon, and marker holders, Pooh eraser, Pooh glue stick, Pooh mousepad, 2 Hanging Pooh head pillows...
