  • TV3's Sunrise and Newsday,

    So ... who watched it? And what did we all think?

    Good first effort - Joanna Hunkin of the NZ Herald? Or off to a wobbly start - Tracey Bond via Stuff?

    For me, it was better that their advertising suggested it was going to be, but they were setting their sights awfully low...

  • Speaker: Bigger than us,

    This is what I feel about rugby.

    On old post, so I don't think I'd read it, but a good one. I can't post there, so I'll put it here (your sporting glories and ignomines - a future chapter of Stories?)

    I played football for many years as a kid, and didn't have much luck in the goal scoring department, I'd had my moments, saved some, set some up, but my solitary goal came in my final season (intermediate, I guess I'd have been 13).

    I was a defender, had the ball just inside our half - took it over the half-way and noticed their team was back, and we had some attackers in the penalty area. We were behind, so I tried to kick it to them in the hope someone would get lucky and manage to do something with it. I kicked a little too hard - it went in. We still lost, but it felt pretty good too.

    Not so much a bastardisation of language, but maths:

    "two times less"

    May I add ironical?

    What on Earth is wrong with ironic?

  • Hard News: Policy, finally,

    __Halo 3__ is released next week, and I'm offering up a Halo 3 Collector's Edition (in swanky metal box) and Halo 3 sweatshirt.

    Oooh. Does it come with a '360 I can play it on?

    Does anyone know what "Judeo-Christian values" are?

    Well - you could ask Gordon himself...

    Gordo's up with the YouTube generation :-)

  • Hard News: He might be crazy, but he's…,

    A wonderful example of how the eyes can fool the ears.

    I disagree. The video adds to the experience, but I started playing it, and then read something in another browser tab, and it still worked its magic...
