``I personally change my clothes every day, so why shouldn't Superman change his once in 60 years?'' Carlin said.

Bruising role brings out the ice

Actress Lauren Holly says she got so bumped and bruised during the making of the upcoming movie ``Turbulence'' that she ``kind of looked like a relief map.''

Holly stars as a flight attendant forced to land a plane when it's hijacked by a terrorist played by actor Ray Liotta.

She always wanted to make an action picture, but she said she didn't anticipate the risks of doing her own stunts.

Many nights, she went home ``wrapped in ice packs,'' headed for Epsom salt baths.

In an interview with the television program ``Access Hollywood,'' which airs Monday, Holly says she prepared for the movie in a flight simulator. But asked if she was able to land properly, she said: ``I didn't make it once.''

Holly says the airline industry so far has responded positively to the film because although ``the plane takes a lot of beating and damage, it gets down safely.''
