~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Christmas haul:
Chocolate. Lots of chocolate.
Happily, after that, an electric toothbrush (it’s like chewing on an electric shaver :| ).
Modem for my laptop.
Plates and cups.
iTunes voucher.
A book: The History of Ideas: from Fire to Freud. (A thousand-page tome of social history. Nerdtastic. I’m reading about the Reformation right now - apparently the Vatican put together a council to deal with protestantism, and in their first year the only resolution they came up with was that council members should live in a ‘frugal and pious manner’ or something. In the meantime the protestants were smuggling banned books all over the shop and being super heretical.)
While I’m here, here are some random pics I dug out of my TV capture folder.
This one speaks for itself. Who thought up that headline?!
Christa Miller dancing in a glass box. Best episode of Scrubs ever.
And the award for worst suit, tie and shirt combination on a newsreader goes to… Rick Ardon! Well done, Rick.
I was talking to some film students once, and they said the wankiest student film they had ever seen featured a clown lying dead underneath a table in some kind of bizarre symbolic statement. This is the M*A*S*H equivalent.

I GOT A RICE COOKER. YOU ARE JEALOUS. Unless you have one of your own.
Also I got a colander. Now I can drain pasta like a lazy person again. It’s a christmas miracle!
Hope it was a totally rad Jesus Presentday for you.

James - I’m good. Hope it’s not too hot over there.
Liz - I *am* a bit jealous. I have no colander either - removalists stole it. In short, I had a rad Chrimbo but am now depressed.

Depressed? I know a cure for that: Fascist Fair Go Party! Hope you have not forgotten!

Liz - I was there. You saw it. I even got encore action while you and your UWA crowd were outside. Ha!
Winter - I should have ripped the deleted scenes from that DVD - they’re pretty good.
