I loved the book as a kid and was very excited when I heard that Spike Jonze was directing a movie version. Then it died a slow, painful death.

But now it's back, with both a trailer and a release date!

I wish I had a video to illustrate this point, but it doesn't exist. Let me paint you a picture with words.

I was watching a cooking show on tv and they were talking about how post-war immigration brought new cultures and flavours to Australia. Also how pre-war, going out to a restaurant was a rare occassion but it's become more common now. The narration was illustrated with various bits of file footages showing people dressed in their finest, going out to eat. One very quick shot...

I want a new Custom Title but I can't think of anything witty. Any suggestions?

More or less the most sexual song ever sung about Jesus other than the ones sung by Cartman.

Did you get to work fine? What did they think of your clothing?

Oh, and, you left your umbrella in the bedroom. I took it back to Melbourne but left it in Goopy's car. I can find it if you want it back...

Uhhh... I was going to try and explain this one, but I think the title says it all, really.
