So, if you're out and about in areas where you need Sat Nav and have only Google maps to go by, you end up spending a fortune thanks to extortionate data rates (per MB) charged by every telco in the EU. My experience in this is within the EU only (so far), but it has been costly - very costly.

Is it me or didn't Bart go skateboarding naked in the movie, including showing his "talent".
Some would argue that Bart skateboarding naked isn't "suggestive" enough to be classed as porn, but what about when he's handcuffed shortly thereafter, totally naked?
Surely the Australian Government can't convict everyone who paid to go watch the movie?
