    charge of the slight brigade...

    ‘Accentuate the positive’

    more like 'Attenuate the negative'...

    Brash is experiencing a dipolar moment:
    a loss of magnetism and a dip/flip in the polls
    he is facing resistance and is phasing out...
    (possibly due to personal/physical thickness)

    states of head...

    I’ve knocked together this.

    I love this too - kissing the fink?

    Urika... bathwater, baby

    all you need to hear is that he has some, ok.

    oh, he's a comedian..
    he had principles that auger well
    y'know, a comedian screw...

    Listening to the anagramophone...

    Michael Laws’ vile radio show

    RADIO VILE has a certain douché air to it...
    a splash in the face by day
    a chill in the ear by night

    interesting to hear TV3 saying Radio Live
    bosses wouldn't talk to them...
    but...

    Baffled by bullshit...

    Some people take that view, but my view, and I take that view very seriously and I’ve stood up for that principle even if I’ve been attacked by certain parts of the media for doing so, I think it inevitably leads to prominent New Zealanders and then ordinary everyday New Zealanders, and I’m standing up against that principle.

    So what exactly was the principle he was standing up for and against??

    sub rosa crux...

    I wonder if CERA will recycle those little colour-coded crosses

    With strings attached, I'm sure they'll be very handy for
    Mr Brownlee's Travelling Puppet and Medicine Show...

    Placarding the masses...

    yesterday’s Show Your Colour Crusade.

    I'm glad to see they are still using the reverseable placard I left with them for future use - (Rateable Value is a Rort b/w Change the Government, Give Chch a Fair Shake) and now I see The Sunday Times even used it for their headline... - it heartens the recycler in me...

    Auckland’s ANZ tower’s creche being removed

    a stock market creche?

    Alimentary my dear...

    I continue to get wonderful mail about
    my book, Daughters of Erebus.

    Why, just the other day I overheard some people in
    a cafe talking about it, but I couldn't possibly share their
    thoughts and words as they were obviously unaware
    I was able to hear them... otherwise why would they
    be saying what an effort it was to read, and eff it, they
    couldn't be bothered finishing it, and they weren't
    talking about their tea...

    ...which makes me think about 'that' cupper tea
    is it merely a coincidence that cupper breaks down
    to: Cu = Copper, pp = Softly Softly, ER = the Crown
    and tea is, well, Colonial baggage from way back...
    Seems to me this whole affair from first sip to
    fishing trip has been an old fashioned orchestrated
    and subtly nuanced smoko screen...

    I note the cafe staff have not been questioned
    as to what they might have heard and shared,
    and I would expect them keep their tipsters
    and protect their saucers...

  • Hard News: The perils of political confidence, in reply to Rich of Observationz,

    Rise of the Avenger...

    I didn't think the US named things like
    warships after living politicians.

    It seems they forgot to consult you, *
    or perhaps they know George HW Bush
    is really one of the living dead...
    ;- )

    *possibly it may be money they don't
    have living politicians on - perhaps they did
    learn at least one thing from the fall of Rome

    ...and I'm sure Northrop Grumman have many millions
    of reasons to be grateful to GHW Bush
