I'm such a slacker, I totally didn't get involved and I should've but- I'm not the crusader in the family, y'know? My uncle was in charge of doing the collection here in Geelong, he and my cousin Netty were putting together boxes and stuff to send to Samoa, with supplies like clothes and food, etc.
He was in the local newspaper- the article's now up on my grandmother's fridge, lol- and it's kinda funny because the adults were talking about a major mistake the paper had made and I was reading through it, 'Yeah, yeah, okay, hmm...'Mr Meredith was the Samoan ambassador'- hold up, WTF?!' *shakes head* They mistakenly wrote that my UNCLE was the ambassador, instead of my late grandfather. Idiots. Tsk, tsk.
ZOMG. Lisbon solved cases on her own? *gasp* But- but- impossible! How did she think for herself without his brilliance to guide her?!
And dude, with Red Badge, I totally called it- I knew she wasn't going to go nuts all of a sudden, I totally guessed that she was taking a leaf out of Jane's Book of Crazy Stunts to Facilitate Crime-Solving. *nodnod*
You know what would be really novel? If they solved a case completely legally WITHOUT messing around so badly it sends the lawyers into a tizzy. I kinda enjoy the fantastical aspect of the show wherein they can coerce confessions and such without their cases being thrown out of court [poor, poor lawyers, I don't envy them at all] but it'd be interesting to see how they'd fare sticking to the letter and spirit of the law!
Bwahaha! *takes a bow* Thanks, darlin'! I'm glad you appreciate the vid, I made it knowing only two other people would possibly get a kick out of it, and after all those hours I spent on it, too... Mmm, I love season 1. Okay, so s2's my favorite [Roxton's haircut gives it an edge], but it was all cute and adorable and wacky, without the underpinnings of angst from later on, especially s3.
