Can you make fun of cancer? Apparently, you can. Tragedies hit us hard. And they often come in twos or threes, or even whole bunches of them. One tragedy is a lonely bitch and she needs to have company. So if one hits you, never underestimate the upcoming ones; they might be lurking just behind the corner. There are people who return stronger after personal downfalls, they survive loss, diseases, they overcome obstacles with the grace of a sense of humor. We need this humor and we need their strength to build again our self-esteem, our lives, our self-worth. We need people who make us believe that we will be happy despite it all. A genuine story of a cancer survivor and a really funny person. Tig Notaro.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
