The Schapelle Corby case has really captured Australia's imagination and surprise over the Indonesian justice system. Just to put Corby's case into perspective, consider the legal action applied against the architects of violence in East Timor in the last days of the occupation. Nice to see that you can kill 1500 people and dislocate a quarter of a million and receive a promotion, but if you have a few kilo's of marijuana on you it's 20 years jail.

luciusmalfory are plotting a naughty but educational website. It's a long-term plan, something that will take probably a year to set up. 'Nuff said on that matter. Secondly, brendan and I bounced around a couple of ideas for a Paranoia supplement. I shot a letter off to the publishers and they're very interested indeed! Which goes to show, when I work on it I can have a really silly sense of humour.
Saw Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on Saturday. Didn't think much of it, not as good as the TV series. I gave it a 4/10. Zaphod was sufficiently annoyingly, tho'. Have spent some time upgrading my home computers. Will end up with four different operating systems when finished. Debating internally on whether to buy a Compaq ProLiant 3000 that's on the cheap. On the work news front, Inmatrix just rang to say that they now want me as permanent part-time on contractor fees. Nice. Meeting with Cameron from Swinburne last week went very well, looks like RPG journal is a going concern. Speaking of which, Scene 10 of Ten Thousand Islands is complete. Have also been playing more of the one-to-one Nephilim/Call of Cthulhu crossover withcaseopaya, which is really developing into quite a story. Finally, Outbreak of Heresy starts this Sunday.
Crazy thing happened at the Unitarians last Sunday. A person approached the Church to give a lecture on Florence Nightengale some time back, which was all fair enough and he gave a reasonably accurate report, although certainly nothing special. However, a little bit of subsequent investigation reveals that the speaker, one Geoffrey Muirden, is a former leader of the anti-Jewish and historical revisionist Adelaide Institute. That's not so good.
Full congratulations are due to Petro Georgiou and his colleagues in their valiant stand against the government's inhumane treatment of asylum seekers. Labor for Refugees will be organising a protest in favour of Petro's actions. This should attract some media attention.
