Well, first question. Can you, using this address, actually govern Australia?
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In other news, I think I've discovered the person who's been using my email address as her own, and it's an Australian MP.
Wait, what?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Strange women in the halls of Parliament, misusing email, is no basis for a system of government.
Wait, what?
I'm pretty sure she's using it for personal email? Most of the time?
Do I need to fly to Australia and give an amateur talk on InfoSec to your MPs, billytea?

Yes! Because that would be hilarious.

I am happy to report that Casper somehow managed to squeak out a 61.3 in Algebra 2, thanks to some miraculous bonus points. Her teacher is a notorious hard-ass, so I don't even think that it was a sympathy D!
So wish me luck trying for front-zone tickets for kpop group NCT in Chicago, May 7. On sale tomorrow at 11am!

Great news, flea. I can remember well celebrating a D for mine!

Good luck!
Hey, band like NCT, when they do a concert, do they do numbers by subunits too?

This is actually a NCT 127 tour. I'm pretty sure they are only bringing the guys currently officially in NCT 127 right now (9 guys - Winwin now seems permanently attached to the China subunit). As a group they are pretty new to touring so we'll see, but I don't expect them do do any NCT Dream songs (although they have Mark and Haechan), and I don't expect any NCT U songs (though they could do Seventh Sense since the only guy missing would be Ten; they could hardly do Baby Don't Stop without Ten!)
Edit: sorry, everyone who is not billytea.
