OK, so I am back from Australia. And I suppose I have many things to say, most importantly that it was cold  there and now I'm sick.
I'll give a real entry later, about music, movies, books (OMG), accents and immigrants. And Australia, I suppose, and my fear of foraging for food. And I still have to finish my "Doctor Who's Gay Agenda" entry.
Anyway.
Go read this article on Sex and Scandal at Duke in Rolling Stone, and then this response by a Duke blogger. Depressing. And rather interesting.
Also, I'm apparently hopeless on politics. I answered "Liberal" and "other" to Niyatee's question... and then explained in the comments, ruminated about Sweden,  Bangladesh and India before Keri and I decided that absurdism does not go well with politics.
So next time you ask me about my politcal views, I'll scoff and declare myself an absurdist.

Was it a boarding school?
I love all-boys boarding schools. They're breeding grounds for depressing writing, lots of smoking and beer consumption and of course the requisite homoeroticism.
I love them from the point of view of a writer. I'd never actually want to go to one, they sound scary.

nah it was just a normal school. catholic though! lots of smoking, of the marijuana variety, definitely. hahaha & oh the homoeroticism.
