will it attract lightning?

These umbrellas which are for sale in (South) Korea look really cool. First seen in the film Blade Runner, they will be better known as light saber umbrellas.


The question is, will it attract lightning?

Today, I watched the Brisbane Lions vs St Kilda match taped from last night. It was good to see some of the new players stepping up and playing well. Moody had a lot of (ball) possessions and a rookie, Tyler proved himself on the field.

This afternoon, Emily and I went to the new Dendy cinema in town. The seats were like couches (wide, soft and comfortable). The good thing about Dendy is that they also screen a lot of foreign films. There is only so much Hollywood that one can take.

We watched Perfume: The Story of a Murderer which was quite good. A shame it was not in French, as the film was set in France. Most of the characters spoke with an English accent, except for Giuseppe Baldini played by Dustin Hoffman who spoke with a bad French(?) accent. Baldini was supposed to be Italian. It was faithful to the book by Patrick Süskind (originally in German), except some of the storylines were not included.
