I just had to do a very childish, but very fun, task for university - writing a letter to the editor in response to comments made by an Australian politician about whether or not Muslim women should be required, by governments or anyone else, to wear their veils (these comments were made in light of recent issues in France and Saudi Arabia).

I had a ball with it. I adore the particular politician involved, even though I'd never vote for him, and somehow that made the task more enjoyable. I am, however, a tad worried that the assessor will read my views (which were my genuine, highly conservative views) and send me off to see a counselor...

Hey, it's happened before!

I watched the Family Guy Family Something Something Dark Side Guy movie last night, and it was rather darned funny (but occasionally up its own butt).

That's nothing new. That's what Family Guy is.

What's really worth commenting on is how dodgy the marketing was! They made a deliberate point to tell us that the Giant Chicken was going to be Boba Fett, and this means nothing in the film! Intentionally! You suck, Family Guy people! I was so jazzed for a trademark five-minute fight between Peter/Han and Chicken/Fett. BAH!

It turns out Power Rangers: Jungle Fury started airing on Australian TV (7TWO, 8:30am weekdays and 11:30am Sundays) some time last week, replacing Operation Overdrive.

Of course, it is way too late in the morning for me to watch it consistently, but I thought I'd give everyone else a head's-up. :P

After one friend on a mailing list pointed out it can sometimes be fun to replace "Osborn" with "BENDIS!" when reading Siege solicitations, another friend on the same list replaced all instances of "Osborn" with "BENDIS!" for our convenience.

 

( The results are hilarious! )
