  • Hard News: Good Newsing,

    By the way, if you're in the Chev, and you have a camera, this is the weekend of the pointchev.com photo competition. Groovy.

    Any photos taken this Saturday will give the impression that the Point is the brownest suburb in Auckland... or the biggest car park in the city of sails. The Pasadena end of our fair suburb will be chock a block with Pasifika traffic once again.

    Of course, photos taken a few weeks earlier at the northern end would have given the impression we're the gayest suburb in Aotearoa..... I do love our neighbourhood and it's diversity - both with the residents and those attracted to some of the great events we host!

  • Hard News: Ready for the Big One?,

    I've just been told I need a Seismic Strap...

    Not for your kids I hope? Sue Bradford made that sorta stuff illegal.

  • Hard News: Still crazy after all these years,

    Thanks for the illuminating but rather depressing Scientology link Sam. When I read....
    Xenu was about to be deposed from power, so he devised a plot to eliminate the excess population from his dominions. With the assistance of psychiatrists, he summoned billions of his citizens together under the pretense of income tax inspections, then paralyzed them and froze them in a mixture of alcohol and glycol to capture their souls. The kidnapped populace was loaded into spacecraft for transport to the site of extermination
    ...I thought it sounded pretty much like the Teabagging Birthers in the US - except they know it's President Obama and not Xenu who is about to bring about the New World Order.

  • Hard News: Not in front of the children,

    I'm having a hard time keeping up with when I should be shocked and outraged, and when I should be decrying the PC nanny state. Could someone help me out?

    Oh that's a simple one; if it impinges in any way whatsoever on white middle-class heterosexual married folk it is Nanny Stateism Gone Wild. If it's anyone else moaning they shouldn't be so bloody thin-skinned. Build a bridge and get over it!!

  • Busytown: As it happens,

    But in the spirit of journalism in the age of the internet, I have repackaged the story for your consumption and put my own name on it.

    And done in a way that is not at all plagiaristic.....

  • Hard News: Truth to Power, etc,

    I'm still wondering how she busted PAS as a Herald-worshipping cult with Russell as the high priestess. We put so much effort into establishing our cover. :)

    Perhaps she saw the ad for your AGM in the public notices of the Central Leader?

  • Random Play: All Apologies,

    Apologies? They're becoming iconic kiwi behaviour it seems.

  • Cracker: Mo' Better Reason,

    Goooooo on John. If you do, I'll personally donate $500 to your Movember profile.

    You do realise that throwing down the gauntlet to the PM is now an offence where the cops can forcibly take a DNA sample from the offender?!?!
