    Craig I must admit I've not had a read of it and working on pure gut instinct. If it's not too much trouble could you point to a few holes?

    Dirty Dairy has been demonized in Canty for years - I knew it was evil

    And we haven't started talking about why we don't have bobby calves bouncing around the fields. Artificile insemination and late term abortion so the cows milk never feeds a calf. Quite unnatural and reminds me of the movie the Matrix its fetal pods & abortions.

    Joe can we use given names?

    As not all Great League Players are Christian & it might make the nonbelievers happy as well.

    Hazem El Masri (Arabic: حازم المصري) (born 1 April 1976) is a Lebanese-Australian professional rugby league football player, widely known for his goal-kicking feats with his National Rugby League side, the Canterbury Bulldogs.

    "sewer which is rugby league"
    I've never played league but the very structure means a bad game of league beats a bad game of Union. Which is only fun for the forwards . The backs & fans might as well not be there.

    Don't we all have a bias?

    Asking out of pure ignorance & a pref for a zero level for Alky when driving, but beyond "I drive better stoned" has anyone measured imparement by drugs compared to Alky?

    OT
    The death of Cr Condon has led for a few calls (from local politicans) to raise the driving age. Not really interested in this myself (although I was over 25yr before I drove then i got fat hmm) just wondering if any anti drink driving lobby group is campaigning against Cr with DIC convictions. A bit puritanical I know.

    If they have a Street named after Bobby Sands I'm sure they are well aware of issues at play.

    But yeah, those Anglicans will come back soon it is a mighty quibble gone too far over very little really. You find groups of one supporting the stand of the other all the time & vv.

    Richie the Iranian converted to C of E not ROC (as I once got on my ID tags). Your premise of Bobby Sands is therefore wrong.

    If you're in Washington D.C. & throwing around a word like "niggardly" you are out of touch and have no place in power, irrespective of your intended use of the word.

    Jim I enjoyed your exploration of identity through language.
    I think there is more to it as well.
    I take it you identiufy as a native-born NZer?

    Jim, niggardly should get you fired. I like your search for identity but it requires a wider acknowledgement than you're giving it.
    Cheers
