    Jaysus, drink 74. Imagine if Bond drank that puppy..."sorry I can't recall firing my 9mm indescriminantly into the crowd, but I can remember pursuading some children that a sound smacking was good for them."
    Quite, we don't mention that our cat Bysshe is an atheist with a God complex.
    Swedish couples are always nice, until you pass wind in the sauna. Not that I have, don't mention the Royal Family.

    Quite right, seen, soundly beaten and definitely not heard, good show. This was an ideologically driven message from Kent Brockman, tonight on PAS Entertainment.

    So are you using Vulcan Mind Weld or Jedi Mind Tricks, serious investigators need to know and Murray wants some more. Also it is against the Geneva Convention to repeatedly use the term Horse Whip instead of Riding Crop, even if you don't, because it's just really bad, mmmkay.
    Is you cat really called Canaille? Oh, and Sweden isn't evil, it was just drawn that way.

    Aerial carpet bombing of civilians, that's where it's at for those with the real bucks, they're like darn huge vending machines them B5's. Jet fighters, well they're there for tax payers to drool over, but not much chop on arms dealers high turnover wet dream list (and the all important kill count) and there's nothing like a high aerial bombing run to avert attention from, cigars, and other unsightly voter turnoffs. Nothing says America loves you more at poll time than a good bombing run.
    Sikorsky Apache Attack Helicopters, now they were great for milking development budgets (Version 2), however, those damn terrorist militia worked out how to pull down 500k+ worth of tin and man and woman training with a 75.00 RPG. Sikorsky got put of the budget half way through V 2 (2 billion + and climbing), not due to the glaring vulnerability issue, but because that year it wasn't their turn for D.O.D largesse, that year it went back to Boeing.
    How do I know this, heh, I can't tell you.

    Oh I know their history, and I know what you mean, I tangented. And besides, the trio had to break up when Mintsrel died. We used to have make-up-a-Sam Hunt-poem type thingy, each poem had to include an allusion to Minstrel and a Nikau and some street in Devonport.

    He is an interesting study for sure, especially when at his media personna peak he drove round in that TV2 funded (NZ On Air?) winnebago thing with surfbaord attached.
    I have read his poetry. I hear he is now a radio jockey in Christchurch? I have met him, nice chap at the right hour. I just bridle at the thought in NZ that being a poet is a career, but for some I know it is - due to grants, residencies, competitions and so on. I need to get over it.

    The secret is in the syllables
    write to make it sound
    just a little bit winter.

    (when he was a poet)

    I didn't think you could retire from being a poet.
