  • Hard News: Here's one I prepared earlier, in reply to Kumara Republic,

    Fresh grapes, first time in 20 years I'd thrown up :(

    Cherries stored in a bag previously used for meet, as we later found out. We were travelling at the time. Prague was nice, but there is a dark side I didn't expect to see.

    "We work in secret, we exist in shadow. And we dress in black."

    What? It is Friday.

    Great stuff, and vastly preferable to Wham imho

    Vastly superior to a whole hoard of music I could think of. But still like a bit of Wham, in the right circumstances. And yes, those circumstances do exist. IMhO.

  • Hard News: Bishop Brian: It's worse than…, in reply to Katita,

    BTW - where do you think Bishop Brian finds those suits from? There was a whiff of John Rowles about the whole presentation.

    You're not the first to say that, and they went a step further.

    As if all that’s not bad enough, there are those who think Bishop Brian Tamaki looks like “a cross between Mikey Havoc and John Rowles”.

    And;

    Prism’s Jonathan Marinus invites him to ruminate on the interaction between Christian faith and fashion.

    Orly? Go on then.

    Black appears to be Destiny Church’s colour of choice. Is that a fair comment?

    This is an unfair comment. The colour black has not been designated as Destiny Church’s colour (although it is New Zealand’s colour of choice worn by our national teams in most sporting codes). There was one occasion at Parliament in 2004 where we utilised black Tshirts with white branding because it is visually effective – that’s all there is to it.

    Rumination personified. Visually effective in what sense?

    (and battery hens were happy and heathy)

    It's the damn straw in them chickens off the heath that get stuck in your craw.

    <Right, I'm over the wall>

    PS. Check the styles at the end of that video. 1983. What were we thinking?

  • Up Front: Respectably-Dressed Sensible…, in reply to giovanni tiso,

    Gio, (your name autocorrects to GUI, in case you didn’t know) we’ve had our differences, but my neck hurts from nodding agreement.

    And Emma re Wham party. Totally!

    Got me! Now I wish I was one of those. Can I just call myself an academic or do I have to get a qualification?

    You really want to?

  • Up Front: Respectably-Dressed Sensible…, in reply to Emma Hart,

    Is a list of feminine things. I still do all that stuff, thanks.

    Umm, I do quite a few of them too. Just sayin'. I don't smoke.

  • Up Front: Respectably-Dressed Sensible…, in reply to BenWilson,

    They were still 14 year old girls listening to Wham, sneaky-smoking behind the school, giggling uncontrollably, reading poetry at the same level as anyone else their age, bitter on their parents, no clue about their future, etc, etc.

    You did put a generalisation disclaimer, but yeah, that must be some kind of record.

    I read this yesterday. It seemed apposite.

    etc, etc.

    ETA: And, just incidentally, did you know my first girlfriend?
