Sasha's duet

Ms Castel has a couple of excellent posts up right now after a brief absence.

The first deals with religion and the followers thereof.

The second is a review of the mesmerising prison drama OZ. A show where physically, mentally, and emotionally, everyone is fucking everyone else up the ass.

The nanny state marches on

In an effort to prevent the terrifying 'crimes' such ticket scalping, a collection of local government statist pricks wants to give park rangers the power to search bags.

Rangers may soon be allowed to search people's bags, picnic baskets, eskies and even drinking bottles in some of Sydney's most popular parks.

[...]

Unlike most police search powers, there is no requirement in the draft rules for rangers to suspect criminal activity before conducting a search - and if park visitors refuse, they could be removed and fined $175 if they try to come back.

The draft rules state anyone must "open any bag, container or other thing" they have and "permit inspection of its contents" if asked by an "authorised person". The Centennial Park and Moore Park Trust has proposed the powers and released them for public discussion.

Let me get this right, I'm in a public place, I'm not conducting any criminal activity, but some little prick official has the right to search my bag, and I'm going to forcibly removed and fined if I say no?

Go forth and multiply, you commie scum.

Any park ranger trying to search my person is going to get punched in the face. You have been warned.

A question for film buffs

Is Warren Beatty the worst actor of all time?

Honestly, I can't say I've ever seen a scene with him where he didn't appear to be A) constipated, B) trying out for a hair gel commercial, or C) looking at his cue cards.

Yes, I've seen Bugsy. I've seen Bonnie and Clyde. I've seen that piece of crap with Natalie Wood in it that Elia Kazan directed.

The man cannot act. I've seen Dennis Rodman turn in better performances than this putz.

Beatty is so jarringly out-of-place, regardless of setting, script quality, co-actors or film genre.

His only comedic skills are unintentional. His dramatic roles are like Krusty The Klown playing Travis Bickle. His romantic scenes have all the grace of Anna Nicole-Smith dry-humping Snoop Doggy Dog. He doesn't even have the cheesy bad-actor appeal of a William Shatner.

Not surprisingly, Beatty is a multiple-Oscar winner.
