  • Hard News: You can Roughan but you just…,

    I have to smile. Gerry on TV3 tonight. In one breath the gummint is selling the power companies back to us and in another telling Aucklanders that they are not going to pay twice for the roads that are already there. Say what?

  • Hard News: You can Roughan but you just…, in reply to Yamis,

    ......but the roads and rail need to work together, not ending up with one winning over the other, or being counter productive.

    And that goes to the root(ed) national transport policy of this country (along with the power shimozzle). The road and rail are two corridors, run by different groups who will not budge to cater for the other because they are "competitors".

    Sort that out and the country (and Auckland) might get somewhere.

  • Hard News: The War Stories,

    My Gallipoli bound Granddad, just before he left Middle East, along with practically the whole Canterbury Mounteds, took their horses down to the beach and shot them. He said it was because they would not leave them for the locals as they treated theirs appallingly. They couldn't bear seeing theirs treated the same way.

    He managed to get back with a bullet grooved skull and a piece of metal inserted to cover the wound.

  • Capture: The Capture Pinhole Photography…,

    Can I rip apart an old digital camera and experiment with my own pinhole?

    The insane thing is, the real miniature CCDs use pinholes rather than lenses!!!!!!

    How bizarre.....

    or is the smell, fluid and magic the key to the whole nine yards for this show?

  • Hard News: The Treasure at the End of…,

    All the “Noes” and the bible crowd maybe should have listened to this 21 year old for some interesting interpretations of the biblical verses outlawing “unnatural acts” before they voted.

  • Hard News: Key Questions,

    I suppose I could go round the agrarian sector and lift a kilo or two of fertiliser. (noone would notice the small amount from their shed bags). After a while we will have a Hertz Truck worth, call into the petrol station and squirt deisel all over it, Pick up an old firecracker and........

    Does this count as "dual use technology"?

    Ore....go down to the Buller Gorge, with the map that tells you where "Uranium Point" is, find a few crumbs of clicking dirt and dump it in the K****ke lakes.

    Whoa!!!! I could get in trouble for this.......

    Message to GCSB - sorry - SIS (me being a local like): I wouldn't!!!!!

    Apparently hammers have "dual uses" as well. I have used one for building a house AND straightening out the local cats.

    Hydroponics for growing weed when it is supposed to be used ONLY for lettuce.

  • Hard News: Key Questions,

    "Weapons of Mass Destruction" ? Here? In Good 'Ol Enzed? Where? What? The mind boggles. Hmmm...lets see....Maybe someone is collecting sheep knuckle bones and sending them to Gaza for the Palestinian's slings. Maybe the waste Bull Semen is being spread around the water supplies of ....well...anywhere really. Maybe our pure 100% milk is truly dangerous. Did Key read my post on formula? Afterall, it was a baby food factory that the US of A blasted to kingdom come in Sudan wasn't it? Dangerous stuff and we produce masses of it.

    Hands up all of you who have visited Al jazerra on the net? You are a "person of interest".

    Hang on. We produce the best aluminium in the world. Perfect for "Tube Guns" of mass destruction and much better than those shitty British ones they tried to give..er...sell for oil to Iraq.

    What else. Wood. Timber. Think about the energy we are handing to the world. We export logs. LOGS! They burn! They are made from nuclear powered Suns. They are made into flaming torches and for stacking around poles for burning witches. Don't worry, they are stockpiling them for that wee exercise in the not too distant future. We have already started with stonings and prison and mass rape.

    Give us a break John Key. You have taken a leaf out of General Colon (sic) Powell's book and are peddling fantasy. He learnt his lesson and has admitted it.

    This is classic bullshit to justify the "need" to change the law. Go search for a scruple. You haven't got any.
