    Here's come Octopus throwing in action. That Hockey player seems a little narked off!

    the bottle subsequently fizzed and burst its cap

    I love it - only a true Waikato man would check to see if a bottle that smacked him in the head was still drinkable. Solid effort there, fella.

    Australia are getting whipped and the cricket

    Heh yeah true, I was only thinking of my own teams, but I guess that includes India at the moment.

    No joy for Spurs this morning, eh? :(

    Thanks for the link - I was thinking of calling it 'the loneliness of the long distance photocopier' or just 'Bangladesh'.

    Is anyone else in the sporting doldrums? Here's my check list:

    Waikato - out. Can't get that excited about WLG v CANT either
    All Blacks - not playing
    Tottenham - remove all sharp objects
    Black Caps - making really hard work of Bangladesh
    League - don't care about M. Mouse competitions. *Don't care about League that much, to be fair*

    Where do I go from here? There's only so many fishing shows I can watch, and I can't be expected to do JOBS all weekend.

  • Hard News: Real Gone,

    A branch of Kinokuniya would be a wonderful addition.

    I want a Muji.

  • Hard News: Real Gone,

    When I moved jobs and worked out exactly how close I'd be to Real Groovy (I'm looking @ the back of the building now) - I shuddered, 'cos I knew how often I'd be in there.

    Like y'all, I've spent loads in there over the years - it was always first stop on our trips up from Hamilton.

    Their bargain bins are amazing, and I wonder if they've contributed to their problems. I used to go in and buy multiple bits of vinyl at full price, whereas now the game is to find gems for $2 or $5. I still get most of my music there, just heaps cheaper. This goes for 2nd hand DVDs and games also.

    My best score recently was the steam train recordings still-in-its-wrapper triple LP set for a mate. He was delighted.

    I really hope they can keep going in some form or another, their website is actually pretty tops.

  • Field Theory: Vrooooom,

    didn't screw up Hamilton anymore than years of just being Hamilton already had.

    I'm making a note in my book with 'Revenge' on the cover. It says 'Green, H'.

  • Field Theory: Sport and Politics,

    Classy Boris Yeltsin started a tennis revolution in Russia - here's why.

    There was a clip of Boris playing Tennis drunk off 60 minutes or the like, couldn't find it though.

  • Field Theory: I suppose you could call…,

    That’s really funny.

    It's part of a Waikato fan's job description to moan about loose forwards' All Black selection.

    Keegan's is still the best rant IMHO:
    I would love it

    For fans of the surreal, here's a clearly tired and emotional Delia Smith:

    Where are ya?

    Auckland deserve to be out of the NPC for complaceny, as do Waikato. But, ah, we're in and the Aucks are out, so I don't care! Who reckons Messam has done enough to earn an ABs tour, or is he going to be another Marty Holah / Dion Muir / Duane Monkley?

    I think it's dreadful that Waikato have had so many quality loose forwards overlooked for the ABs over the years, yet the most one dimensional of them all (Luaki) is constantly picked, despite his best efforts to fark it up for himself by being unfit and generally shit.
