Capture: Spring is Like a Perhaps Hand, in reply to Hebe,
is what has allowed NZ On Air to approve funding for a _drama _ series about the earthquakes and their effect on people. Not employing Christchurch film people and actors who are now desperate for work: I’m really, really, really irate about that.
I doubt it's Geoff's ability that has allowed NZ on Air to ignore Cantabrians. It would be helpful to see if /how many Chch film peeps have applied for the same funding for a Drama series before it could be claimed that they were passed over. Also, at present many people are looking for jobs all over NZ. Chch is not alone in this dilemma. Actors will go wherever the work takes them just as producers etc do too. Just as RB went to a story last week. I doubt that was to deny someone because they were from Chch.
I looked at that photo like it may have been a business person's interpretation/dig of the ineffectiveness of their Civil Defense should an earthquake occur. Because I have seen how ineffective they are in Chch for the people and now it's finally emerging how small business are pretty much screwed insurance wise. And yes, the Mother in Law comment was pretty old and tired but not nasty. I guess we do handle the Chch situation differently and see it with a different perspective but maybe that may have been what got the series to be, it's funding?
Anyhow just my 150 odd words of opinion. -

Oh yay, I can do these ones!
Still no for me. Other half found it immediately. I cant keep my eyes crossed long enough dammit. Must be a side effect from my stroke or a brain defect from my haemorrhage. I'll keep trying though, no matter how idiot I must look to others in the room. And Lilith ,your last post, 3.40am, tired , much ? ;)

Capture: Gordon H. Brown - The Camera's Eye, in reply to JacksonP,
Seems, at least to me, an interesting glimpse into a seldom seen aspect of his history.
Like the Museum shots. Definitely an interesting glimpse into yesteryear also. I like the road widening shots. Two lil' trucks and nothing else .
"Window, Old Stone House" I particularly like. -

Roads in and around SH10 were under water yesterday. Other than that, normal for September.

Legal Beagle: Alcohol Game Theory, in reply to Yamis,
put up with 16, 17 and 18 year olds organising where they are getting wasted at this weekend while they are supposed to be doing the class work they’ve been set :(
But it's the weekend man! I can't believe you haven't figured out that you ram during the week. avoid the weekend and start fresh every Monday, I mean, c'mon it's the weekend. ;)
