More Stephen in Iraq, and a Heroes casting spoiler

Siitting in Melbourne airport right now waiting for my flight to Sydney... yay! Checking my email/LJ and came across this - http://community.livejournal.com/colbert_report/850557.html#cutid1

OMG Stephen. o.o He got a buzz cut! It actually doesn't look too bad, really... I'm so excited for tomorrow's ep, might even just watch it on the website right away or download a full version of it, because I don't want to wait until next week... unless my host tomorrow night has the comedy channel and lets me watch it at 7, when TCR airs here. ;) Anyway, still worried about him over there, but am also looking forward to this week's shows. I think it's great that he's doing this. :)

Oh, and in other non-pundit related fandom news... an exciting Heroes casting spoiler for next season (and I haven't even finished s3, heh... but this doesn't spoil anything except the new cast member, and I'm v. excited about it).

Kind of wish he was playing a different sort of role from his last one, but otoh he does do creepy villain well. :)

Anyway, plane will be boarding soon, so that's it from me right now. Going to be in Sydney in about 2 hours, woo hoo!

Drive-by picture post...

Sydney Opera House, taken today with my mobile




Pretty, no? :) Real pictures coming whenever I get off my butt and post them... I spent the afternoon wandering the Sydney harbour - beautiful, sunny, and warm day. Lots of people and street performers around the harbour, including a guy doing an acrobatic show who looked eerily like Adrian Veidt. XD XD And yes I got a picture of him. He was also wearing this insane, tight, and really quite gay looking outfit that, while it didn't look a thing like what Veidt wears, oddly still reminded me of him. ;)

(speaking of Watchmen, I got to thinking earlier about what woud happen if Rorschach and Edward Cullen ever met... this was brought on by seeing one too many people reading various Twilight books today, including the extremely airheaded and useless receptionist at the shitty hostel I'm stuck in tonight. I figured the latter couldn't be a coincidence. Anyway, don't ask how this led to me fantasizing about Rorschach meeting and killing Edward in a pleasingly brutal way, it just did.. I figured he would not be impressed by the sparkles. XD XD)
