Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh dear.

Stormtrooper Girl Graduates In Full Regalia

Manja Pieters, 36, is one of 1360 Canterbury University students to graduate this week, and he paraded through central Christchurch in the costume yesterday before receiving her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, majoring in film.

"I have graduated a few times before and I thought, `This is my final time - I'm going to go out with a bang'," she said.

Pieters said she grew up with movies such as Star Wars and directors like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, who inspired her to study film.

Pieters, who had to remove her helmet to be capped, said some people appeared intimidated by the outfit, but "I'm short so I'm not that imposing".

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

"Aren't you a little short for a storm trooper?"

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ginger beat me to it.

Olivia and I had a row this morning because I would not give her candy for breakfast. Anyone want a gently used preschooler?

As much as my daughter would like to have one, I'm going to have to decline. We already have a more than adequate amount of sibling conflict.

Olivia and I had a row this morning because I would not give her candy for breakfast.

What on earth made her think you would give her candy for breakfast in the first place?

Because books.

Don't forget to punch a few holes, Cash.

Coding and Sleeping

Out of three soccer games this weekend, one managed to get played and it rained during the whole second half. The kids' teams are still undefeated this season.

Leif had a lot of fun, and he got to play goalie which he always enjoys. He's learned how to play the position this year too, he does a good job of snatching the ball when it gets into the box. His team won 4 or 5 to nothing, so he didn't actually have much to do as goalie, but that doesn't diminish the fun for him.
