Binary Sodoku by John Evans
Well I saw one of Chris Payne's friends tackling a hexadecimal (base-16) Sodoku puzzle during the last friday afternoon lecture. And that was pretty cool yet solid.
But John came up with Binary Sodoku which is even better! Try it all you addicts and n00bs:

Lakers Derby
Yes the time that John Evans had been waiting for all his life: the sun was shining bright and low in the winter afternoon, and John could only win whichever way the result of the football match turned out.
Lakers 1 vs. Lakers 2
on the saturday league.
As it turned out, the Lakers won! Team One that is.
In a game where you could shout "You're on the same side!" there were a surprisingly large number of questionable tackles. Lakers 2 are ahead in the league, but Lakers 1 had a very strong showing to win 4-2
It was a great match with ALL my favourite players in :D
Pictures follow as soon as I get them developed.

Jarhead
- Title:
- Jarhead [2005]
- Rating:
Its a very gritty film that portrays the unglamouressness and pointlessness of war. Its not blood, blood and blood, in fact there's very little of it. It follows the story (semi-documentary style) in a satirical way of some US Marines (aka Jarheads) who train in the late 80s and later serve in the Gulf war. The depiction of the monotony, training, problems you encounter being away from friends and family, and what its like living in a platoon waiting for war which never comes in their case. Not once do the poor men on the ground fire their rifles in anger. Its a nice change from the norm. Great performance by Jamie Foxx and Jake Gyllenhaal.
Funny story when Will and I got to the Skydome on friday night. Sas, Paul and Alec were already in theatre 3 waiting for us. Only problem was we arrived 1 minute late and the queue was HUGE. So a quick call to my lovely sister at home home to book tickets on the Odeon website - so we could jump the queue by going to the self-service machine :D. Problem was, our film was already showing, so we had to book Get Rich or Die Tryin' just to get passed the barrier :P
