    Default Airraptor's 15 minutes of fame

    My uni has a student magazine, called Grapeshot, which has an arts section. They accept submissions from students. A while ago I submitted a photo I took of Airraptor on the birdbath in the garden.

    It got published in this month's edition of Grapeshot. You can see the photo here.

    After being released as a filler toy and getting vaporised in his second comic issue, Airraptor is finally getting a spot in the limelight, if only in a uni magazine.

    Instead of taking photos of toys you should be trying to track down the frank and lovely author of this little piece of journalism at your uni!

    I read the first couple of lines and thought: "Somebody really wanted to make this public? and somebody wanted to publish it?" - WTF?

    Heh, I once published an article about Beast Wars in my university magazine (cos Beast Wars current at the time... shows my age ).

    It's just a student rag - not a formal academic publication like a thesis or something. (-_-)

    But yes... that second article was kinda... strange. As an article in Tharunka once said, universities are meant to be places where you're supposed to be getting an education... not to pick up. (not saying that you can't or shouldn't, but education ought to be one's main priority on campus).
