HSM3: Senior Year

The New High School Musical movie is set to come out on October 24th 2008 (America), and it is set for the first theatrical release of the HSM franchise.

I for one am excited about it, mainly cause i'm a geek for these sorts of movies - especially if they are Disney (except Jump In. That just shouldn't have been made...or thought of...)

One thing that does disappoint me is the release date for other countries (according to IMDB.com - source for all things movies). Australia will have to wait a whole month to be able to see it. Which means, the chances of it getting pirated just goes up exponentially. Why don't they understand that with this generation, we want shit now, and we'll get it however we can. And who knows, by the time we get to seeing it on the big screen, more then likely they will have started work on the next one (just a thought...nothing concrete!)

Not to mention there will be spoilers and crap all over the internet.

I'm all cool for things like R5 DVDs for places like Russia, that get just the movie on a DVD instead of all the added extras to try combat the issues of piracy, but if we can do R5's...why not just do worldwide release dates?

The Official Site has a trailer up on the landing page, its quite the fun.

And courtesy of E! Online, here is a small sneek peek of the new movie.

The International Conference Call

This person clearly works at Microsoft, or is a Microsoft Vendor. They know exactly how the conference call goes. The one they didn't include is where someone doesn't have the phone on Mute, and you hear EVERYTHING in the background.

Or the one where the guy is talking, that mobile noise kicks in, and the speaker has to excuse himself to take the call.

I've had a couple of great ones, it was 10am local, and it was either REALLY early, or late in Japan and the cleaning crew was vacuuming, and they asked the guy to switch rooms.

I was on a particularly amusing call just last week, the speaker was interrupted by someone joining the call about 20min into the call, so she was totally in the middle of speaking. To get her own back, called the guy out, several times with a 'if anyone ELSE has any questions, feel free to ask, XXX I'll answer any of your questions after the call's finished.'

Empire Movie Quiz

Oh, this is cool:

Empire Movie Quiz

I got about 21 correct on first attempt. I feel somewhat proud of my skills...*crickets*

Whats $2 in the scheme of things?

i feel ill.

i saw a what was i assume was a homeless man, and by man i mean no more then 25 - begging for money for food - get hit by a truck.

In frustration that no one would spare $2 to help him out, he stormed off into the oncoming traffic, with only one goal in mind - to get across the road to ask more people for change. Only thing was, the little man wasn't green, and it was one of the busiest fucking streets in Sydney CBD.

The truck attempted to stop, but since it was going 60km with the flow of traffic, and only saw the man darting in and out of the surrounding cars, it didnt have a real chance to stop. It slowed down, considerably, but still hit him.

ugh, the sound was so...ugh.

I think he will be alright...sore, but alright. There was ambo's. Traffic is sure to be anus.

i just keep thinking, if i didnt have that coffee this morning, i could have given $2 to him, which would have stopped him walking out on that road...if only for a minute. at least the truck would have passed?

Do we really have it that easy?

In the never ending battle between generations it always comes back to the whole debate of 'You have it easier then we did, everything is handed to you on a plate, and you take it for granted'

my dad is often fond of the line

I used to walk in the snow to get to the train, to get to school

and will always throw in:

We didn't have the money for me to buy a bike, I made mine from parts i found at the tip. And when we raced I always won.

With all the technology that we have at our disposal, I ask, despite what older generations had/think/say or do, do we really have it that much easier? I don't think so.

Sure, we have more luxury items and stuff, but you dont have to buy them?
House prices are stupid - unless you want a million $$$ debt...
Petrol is stupid
Competition with Jobs etc.


This could just be a case of HTFU. but whatever.

Bejing Olympics 2008

With the Olympics starting tonight, everyone is in Olympic Fever, and i can totally get it. Everyone is comparing it to Sydney, and the hype that was around for that - but i can't really say, i was in High School still and HA! we went to England for them...


But i do admire the athletes and what they do, and they are the best of the best. But i have to think, What do they do outside of being an Olympian? do they have real jobs, and lives? or do they just train?

I've never seen or heard of an olympian doing anything other then their sport, but how is that a sustainable income? Since i'm clearly not an Olympian, i'm in no way qualified to really comment and say they are a burden on Society, we taxpayers send them off to a random country every 4 years to do their thing for 10min and then do it again in another 4 years.


God bless her, Dawn Fraiser, lovely lady, but what does she do? All i see her doing is commenting on Olympic shit, and on TV ads. WTF?


While im not this unco, this I would probably fall into this category of people, and therefore why i would never be going to an Olympics (Regular or Parra)

Just Dance
