UPDATE UPDATE - Well that was stupid. Just before I left for the party on Friday, I got the website as updated as I could, and I'm pretty sure everything got up bar a small section of the StarFox Adventures review. Ah well. I'm still exhausted. It seems that sleeping for 12 hours doesn't make up for missing 8. I should have the comic up Tuesday like I said. Oh yeah: apparently I hate DOA3.

UPDATE - For those who find the comic illegable, try this larger one.

Saturday 25th, 10:32am - There. If KeenSpace isn't up yet, I can't be held accountable. I should forewarn you all... considering that this Saturday I'm going to a party, and on Sunday I'm going to the Australia Day fireworks, and Monday will be recuperation time, the comic may subsequently be up on Tuesday, and at best, late Monday night (as per usual). Forewarned is forearmed, or whatever. But look at the bright side, you get both a comic and a review today! Sorry about the bad taste week. It won't happen for a while again, probably.

Wednesday 22nd, 3:44pm - Travis didn't mention two things. One was that the reason I didn't get the comic done is obvious once you read on. Two was that I always planned on telling you today after I finished, but I doubt anyone will be looking back here until Friday, so it doesn't matter. So: after many tedious hours of coding, Mark and my plan has come to fruition. A new reviews section has been added to the site. Other than just reviewing games, movies and anime, we have made a first and now plan to review webcomics. So if you own a fledgling webcomic that you'd like reviewed: e-mail either myself or Mark. Otherwise, we're just going to go hunt them at our own accord.

Review (movie): The Quiet American by Mark

Hmmm... well this weekend has been VERY HOT, and I'm sure the electricity bill will look quite mean considering the A/C has been running for 48 hours straight. The cricket match was quite amusing, Australia and England playing in 47 degree heat.

And with this heatwave, as a lot of the overseas readers probably don't know, our capital has been devestated by bushfires. Almost four hundred homes were lost, the sewerage system was blocked up, 20% of the capital, and it's surrounding suburbs were out of power. Even as I speak, our Prime Minister sounds extremely cut up. It scares me to think if the terrorists of today coordinated thousands of spot fires in a few days, there wouldn't be much of Australia left at all. I also quiver to think how it would feel if my face was melted off using lasers, but it isn't very likely that that is going to happen either. Terrorists aren't exactly the smartest people out there

Oh yes: and his date wasn't the only one to grab one of Matt's balls... I mean the Quiddich balls! Trav passed it over to me after it arrived from the land of George W and M.A.D. Now all we need is a hall we can lease, and some bodies. Aussie Indoor-Rules Quiddich for all: Aussie style. (Actually I'm not likely to let anyone touch my only Mac Hall merch).

Welp: I have... things to continue relating to the site. Yes... things.

Aaron:

Quick question. What's the difference between Shane Warne and Muralithuran? The answer, of course, is that Warne is a bowler. So what would I class Muralithuran as, you may ask? Well, if you study his action I think you'll find he's a shotputter. Yes, Muralithuran is a chucker. It should be obvious to anyone who watches him; it was certainly obvious to umpire Darryl Hair, who called him for no less than eight no-balls. If you'd had a mike attached to him, you probably would've heard him say 'No ball, chucker!'

Another question. What is the difference between Harry Kewell, and Rivaldo? The answer is that Harry Kewell plays better standing up. Many people will have noticed Rivaldo, playing against Turkey during the World Cup, receiving the ball from the Turkish player for a corner - the ball hit him in the leg with what he deemed to be too much force, so he clutched his head and fell down. He later defended his dive, saying that that sort of thing (kicking the ball to him with force) was unacceptable, and bad for the game. Apart from the obvious stupidity of clutching the wrong body part, I really think soccer players should be able to take the force of a ball in the leg. While watching some of Brazil's other games, you may have heard the commentators mentioning the fact that Rivaldo was on the ground again. He is clearly a little girl. I initially thought he should be banned from soccer for a while, but I later came to the conclusion that he should be allowed to play, provided he wore a frock instead of the regular uniform. In his team colours, naturally. In fact, I've even nicknamed him 'frock'.

Lastly: What's the difference between Anna Kournikova and Amelie Mauresmo? Well, apart from the obvious gender difference, Mauresmo is a tennis player. Kournikova just sucks. The only reason she's well known is because male spectators find her... game... dynamic. OK, bad metaphor. They like perving on her, OK? Which is great, but that doesn't give her a right to hold a tennis racquet and pretend she knows what to do with it. Become a model if you must, but stop pretending to be an athlete.

That is all.
