Are you hinting at a liberal definition of "grew up" there Russell?
No comment.

She's from Timaru.
So am I, apparently.
Athough my Wikipedia article now says I was born in Lower Hutt and "grew up in Timaru".
I suppose you could call it that ...

I've always had excellent vision, and I'm kind of struggling with the onset of with age-related difficulty in reading printed text. I need reading glasses, but I can't quite get used to reaching for them. And they fall off my face, because I sat on them that time. And the frames are lame.
It's a particular problem at the supermarket. I like to read labels, and I can't . I've toyed with the idea of bringing a magnifying glass.
But my vision at ~1 metre is still choice. Even the half-metre between me and the computer screen is generally okay. And, happily, autocue distance is good too. I don't look like I'm squinting.
And perhaps it's the novelty, but I love eye tests. I find them fascinating.
I might freak out more with a hearing test ...
Also: Emma, I met your mum. She's lovely, and she seemed to really enjoy her night at the Media7 recording.

Hi all,
Just back from tonight's recording. Report:
1. Ranginui Walker = mana. Every time I meet that man I'm just so impressed by his grace.
2. I met Emma Hart's mum! She's lovely.

Then again, I've just checked and there's no sign of spleen in the '3 interact' section so a) it didn't work, or b) I was completely wrong...
there's spleen-a-plenty under the Sunrise story.
And the news version.
Although one viewer does make the very sound point that Canada seems to have loads of Eskimo pies of its own.
But they seem to have been invented in Iowa.
On Eskimo Pie Day.
Who knew?

Antiques Roadshow
Watched an old one last night on the Living Channel and it was particularly awesome. Does this make me old?
Also: Two Fat Ladies is my crack. Or possibly heroin.

Any plan to use an excerpt of that storyline from Boston Legal last week (IIRC) where aid viewer sues the networks?
Good guess!
Yes -- we intro with that very excerpt.

I'm thinking that you guys may not have witnessed one middle-class North Shore white boy greet another with the words "Yo, my nigga" ...
Now that's some messed-up shit.

"BUT being the GOOD CUNTS we are and in association with the CUNTS AT 95BFM we are giving you the opportunity to download the opening track for FREE."
The use of "cunt" as a term of blokey affection confuses the hell out of Americans, as the Back of the Y chaps (from whom the above quote comes) have discovered.
But imagine the conniptions when they told their producers they wanted the follow-up to their debit feature The Devil Dared Me To to be titled ... Hard Cunts .
