they shoot rabid dogs don't they...
Perhaps Fox TV could take Paul Henry off our hands, he gets more Glenn Beck by the day...and now I can see his ancestral roots showing:
"Get off my f*****g land," he shouted. "Have you got your pictures now? Have you taken photos of my property or any of my neighbours' properties? If any photos are published I'll sue the f*****g paper."
he is from the dire tribe...

Carroll singing and good will hunting...
Well, Ian, come the nuclear apocalypse we're still going to be here. How about you? (BTW, you're aware I quite literally live across the road from Constellation station? Hope not.) :)
Anyway, snark aside --...Craig, that wasn't directed at you or users or other neighbours of the bus depot - it was intended as a humorous allusion to my conception of a John Banks supporter, so your use of snark is quite apt, it being an imaginary animal that is difficult to track down... ;- )

the Supercity is an Ethnic Soup, er, City...
Obviously John Banks has finely tuned bioreceptors - I hear him on the radio this morning, canvassing - "You look like one of my supporters..." - who knew that cockroaches could walk on their hind legs and use the Constellation bus depot...
...cheap insect jibes aside, Banks (with his constant dismissing of South Auckland) demonstrates the same lack of empathy, respect, tolerance and inclusivity as Paul Henry, and I think those are the qualities we would all like a New Zealander to embrace and embody. -
Outrager's misfortune...
Once Henry's a bottom line liability,
his utility is done.Suspending him without pay, may actually make him notice the punishment that his "builders' cracks"* have earned him...
*Apologies to any individual builders who may be offended by that generalisation, I was meaning the wolf-whistling boorish types, with loose belts....
...oh hell, it's a minefield out there
- shining wit is a spoonerism away from offence!
<tip-o-the-hat to Andrew Scott ;- ) > -
or...
Okay, what I did there was this:
Step 1: highlight and copy the instructions after Quote: in grey to the left of the "Post a reply..." box
Step 2: paste that into the "Post a reply..." box
Step 3: copy the text you want to "quote" from wherever
Step 4: highlight the word "text" from step 2
and paste the copied "quote" over it......ditto all the other permutations
then hit Preview all will be revealed prior to Posting -
Not the one in the quad between the library archway and the English Dept? Or whatever they are in their current iteration? No, I think that was a copper beech. Anyway, sad!
The huge Copper Beech is still there
the Ginkgo was outside the Observatory tower
it created a foul stench when fruiting,
many won't miss it... -
Ship-shape and Bristol fashion...
here's hoping the tide of public opinion ebbs and leaves Henry beached in the muck he so enjoys wallowing in...
He must be so proud to be the psychic ventriloquist's dummy for the redneck / Kiwibog element, to boldly dare to say what others only think ... his tuning must be very acute - I am thinking some particularly heinous things about him that he fails to utter...
<naive musing> how did we get to the point where this shock jock shlock is what programmers think the public wants / deserves ? </naive innocence>
further in-Delhi-gate musings...
Great that the Delhi Games are all up and running,
but did they forget to build ticket selling facilities?
watching bits of the Hockey and Netball last night there was barely a handful of people in the stands... -
Charlie Foxtrot Tango...
Gerry must obviously see this as a gift horse chance to redeem his public image.
Can Gerry Brownlee's appearance on
Dancing with the Stars be far away?
Dr Benway to Triage, please...
Every time I see the acronym AE I think
Accident and Emergency...
...and every time I see MEAA I think MEH!
let Paul Henry haul penury...This blatant racism is something we are not 'relaxed about' and don't expect him (Key)
to be either.Wouldn't it be grand if Paul Henry dragged
John Key down with him...
...but I fear I am dreaming -
Which makes them like a French painter. Two loos le trek.
at least you won't be caught short...

a tale of two suburbs...
Not me! An impostor! I'm nursing a badly broken ankle, and won't be venturing out of D-D-S? (only from passing big trucks on Rosebank Rd) Avondale for a few weeks yet. But gosh Ian, you do get around on the web. You're a star!
aaah that Avondale!
not the Chch one - assumptions, eh...
...as for getting around the web, I spotted it in the cellulose-based hard copy, and had to go find a link...
thanks for the stellar rating - I guess, in line with the thread. I could be dense enough to be a dwarf star ;- )I hope the ankle management course works,
get well soon...
