Last night on TV there was a three hour special edition of the “Bacademy Awards” – and since I was free I watched about an hour of it. I went into great detail about my feelings about this show here, but it is a rip-off of America’s Funniest Home Videos, without the Saget.
The same annoyances still applied, so I’m not sure why I watched it, but I guess if you filter out the audience’s reactions it is entertaining enough. A lot of the scenes were copped from “Jackass”, but the way they were shown it was as if it was common practice in America to do this kind of stupid stuff. Huh.
Since I brought home lots of Japanese pickles from Kyoto we’ve been having a steady diet of Japanese food so far this week. Rice, miso soup, some varieties of pickles, and some nikujaga (hold the niku, please) making this a healthy couple of days. Tonight we might have to change it up a little… Thai food, perhaps?
Off to work now to meet the last group of new students – always a good time (at least for me).
