BTY - anyone remember that show where that young girl could stop time by touching her two index fingers together? she could unfreeze anybody she wanted by touching them. Its a real old show, maybe on for a couple seasons back in the 80's

I recommended that earlier in the thread. Great book. Not for kids.
It was one of my favourite books when I was a child. Momo is not free to choose what she wants to do while time is frozen, though. She has a job to do, and she needs to do it quickly, or time will stay frozen.

Originally posted by PocketKingsThere was an epsiode on the old Twilight Zone where a guy finds a stopwatch that when he pushes the special little button on the side freezes time. He's pretty much a loser of a character (as I recall), and decides to rob a bank. The last scene of the show he's got a cartload of cash that he's rolling out of the bank when he drops the stopwatch and it breaks, and he finds himself stuck in this instance of time and unable to restart it....

Originally posted by Nordlys"The Fermata" is basically the same scenario as described above (the "freezing" time thing), but reads like hardcore pornography. Seriously. Quite well-written though.
