I've finished season one of Flight of the Conchords, and I can say that it grew on me more. I still don't know about "love", but for people that like dry dialogue in situations where characters don't realize what they're really saying, it is recommended. And really, I think that's still the best part of the show.
(Also, does anyone else think that Bret McKenzie looks like he could be Dan Trachtenberg's brother?)
So after I finished that, I started watching Penn & Teller: Bullshit! again. I think you have to admire that they admit that they're "biased as fuck" -- which is not to say that I disagree with them (most of the time). For those that would like a sane, yet libertarian view on issues (if that's a bad thing to you), it's an excellent show. Also, fuck PETA.
So now is the time of year that movies that you actually want to see are coming out on DVD. And since it's the season, I would like to say that Iron Man is just okay -- although it has to be said that I saw the Dark Knight first. Next week is a bit dry, however. I've got Don't Mess with the Zohan and the Happening lying around, but I'm not entirely sure if I want to see either. While I can't see Zohan being worse than Mr. Deeds and the Happening being worse than Lady in the Water, I'm still not in the least enthused to see either.
On the point of movies on DVD/Blu-ray, I would like to say that I want this very much. And this.
On the subject of games, I'm still infatuated with Tales of Vesperia. I mean, I got the achievement for playing the thing for 100 hours! That should say everything that needs to be said about that. I do wish that Fable 2 came out a bit earlier since I'm not sure if I can finish it before Fallout 3 comes out the week after that. And I'm sure that Little Big Planet and Castlevania: Order of Ecclasia will be lost to the tides of Fallout as well.
And finally, on the subject of school: Why the fuck does attendance matter? It may be different elsewhere, but here, if you have more than 3 unexcused absences, your grade will go down. Okay, so I'm paying you to attend school here, so shouldn't I be able to determine if attending class is worth my time from one day to the next? Take tomorrow: I'm ditching because the class is not in the least intellectually challenging or interesting (even though the teacher is pretty hot), and I know exactly what we'll be going over. So isn't it a waste of my time? Not to mention gas money?
C'est la vie.

I completely agree with you on two of you many points. Fable II and Castlevania coming out on the same day is a disaster.
As for attendance it would seem that if im paying then they should basically adopt a stance of "whatever"
