  • Up Front: Oh, God, in reply to Martin Lindberg,

    I’d prefer a rational theist to an irrational atheist.

    or as Tom Waits put it:
    "I'd rather have a bottle in front me
    than a frontal lobotomy..."

  • Capture: The Colour Of Spring,

    Love the keyhole hotel...

    I remember staying near Elam, and wandering around Grafton Gully when they were clearing it for the motorway, there were some fabulous old places down in there...

    Attachment

    I will gladly possibly give you $10p.w.
    in 2017, for your vote next week…

    National launches the Wimpy Tax Cut…
    The devilry is in the lack of detail

    Eyepopping stuff…

  • Speaker: Telling Our Own Tales,

    Bull...frog...
    Jerem(y)iah is well named
    what with all the long lamentations...
    and if he thinks my input was vile
    he doesn't get out alot
    personally I thought I was quite restrained.
    (for a disciple)

    his blandly delivered vituperative observations
    show a very insecure individual
    with delusions of grandeur
    and bad passive aggression
    (or is it more 'poe'-faced...?)

    what's your brief?
    tell us how you really feel Jezza...
    you know you want to ...

    actually no, don't bother
    paint me uncaring...

  • Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to simon g,

    Key doesn’t even have to try any more. You can hear the laughter, and the joke’s on us.

    I heard Joyce talking recently about the money they ‘hope’ to have…
    no plans then!

    Send more old envelopes to Bill English
    and he must be getting short on pencil stubs…

    FTFY

    Take a few deep breaths
    and put the bitter troll aside.

    knock yourself out...

  • Speaker: Telling Our Own Tales, in reply to jeremy botham,

    Jeez Jezza...
    Is an adult helping you with these zingers ?
    or are you coming up with them on your own?

    I can feel your stabby little finger from here...
    but can live without the spittle.

    Patronising prat.

  • Hard News: Privacy and the Public Interest, in reply to Lucy Telfar Barnard,

    critical masses..

    So when you go to a political meeting, and look around, the question isn’t who they appear to be supporting, but who isn’t there.

    Indeed!

    Three Canterbury recovery leaders failed to front at a television current affairs show's live September 2010 earthquake special because of security concerns and the "protest rally" feel of the format.

  • Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to izogi,

    L'Estrange daze...

    found that dialogue disturbing…

    She was sympathetic to WINZ workers ‘having to put up with listening to people moaning all the time’ – what a World view…
    (see what I did there?)

    WORLD styles itself ‘Factory of Ideas and Experiments’. It’s an epithet that sums up its love for the unexpected, the creative and the adventurous.

    none of yer hoi polloi then…
    I think they’re wannabe ‘WARHOLED’
    boom time brats…

    …such ideas, such experiments,
    such hubris tempts Nemesis.
