    Has anyone named the dude who updated Air NZ on wiki?

    During the Air NZ v Ansett battle a few letters to the editor praised Ansett and they got a bit of deserved mileage from it.
    An Air NZ manager sent a memo encouraging staff to write bogus we love Air NZ letters to the editor. The reaction was one of indignance to think our ethics were as maluable as his.

    So all Ministers out of touch with the Airline they use every week?
    NZ sent troops to Iraq - so what's issue?

    The sex industry & psychology go hand in hand - they're all f*@ked in the head.

    Removal of body angers widow .
    "If I knew there was going to be a contest I would become superconscious and not leave that body alone for one minute.
    Maori protocol expert Tamati Kruger

    Police spokeswoman Maggie Leask said it was not illegal to remove a body, only to desecrate it. The case was now a civil matter.

    I started craking jokes in the office with the rest of the boys and we were stopped by a wall of tears from women I really thought more of than that. I'm still puched in the arm when I make "He's his fathers son" jokes about Harry.
    A lot of missplaced emotion tied up in Di.
    It blew us away & a little irksome that Mother Teresa died around the same time (bollocks to Pen & Tellar). We respected for Morger Teresa.

    "Ross says the Mongrel Mob didn’t seem to care about being caught, with prison no deterrent.

    “Going to prison is not a downside for the gang. Other than the fact they can’t be with their families, they have simply changed addresses, from Wilsons Road to Paparua Prison,” he says.
    Detective Sergent Ross Tarawhiti

    My friend just bought in Wilsons Road (opposite Lancaster Park - no other names will be acknowledged) - great for property values.
    The council are beautifiying this poorer area of Christchurch and it's starting to look nice.

    Christchurch has only voted one mayor out (in anyones living memory) - the guy who actually did what he said.

    Built QEII for the commonwealth games and his greatest folly try and get a motorway from Riccarton Road to Bealy Ave cutting out the heart of Hagley Park. Massed protest stopped it & he was out on his ass at the next election.

    Vote Dr Megan Wood for Christchurch Mayor.

    Undie 500 is coming up this weekend so Dunnes beware.
    Trotter got it so wrong on the Smacking Bill didn't he.
    If you're gonna be wrong might as well do it from the moral high ground. He wanted status quo and just lament the dreadful bashings of kiddies to continue. That said I still like to read him incase he's on target.

    Craig are you using the old joke about Sociologists have no friends & extending it to politicians - I like it.
    Of course you get the democracy you deserve.
    Is anyone here standing?
    Or that age limit of being under 50yrs and therefore don't give a crap about the biddies on council (& doesn't AKL have a few councils) expressing our true apathy to local politics.
