    I wonder how much FIFA profits from the on-field theatrics?

    Is there any discussion of this;
    Pro-smacking campaigner joins Auckland mayoralty race?

    If there's one good thing to come from it, he'll eat into Banksie's vote.

    Gio:

    I would hope. I don't know what a right winger could shout at Obama

    "Taxation is theft!"

    Lyndon:

    And I'll repeat here that a 'Don't Tread on Me' flag was spotted at yesterday's ETS protest.

    Who says the Teabaggers are unique to America?

    Three parts ignorance, one part authoritarianism, with a twist of malice.
    Grind down, repress, then lock in a shipping container of ice.

    In Australia, the Componded Collins is known as the Sir Joh.

  • Hard News: Clover It,

    I hadn't even started playing WoW at the time of the Corrupted Blood incident, but there was some interesting psychological analysis on the whole affair. In particular, the incident exposed a number of digital Typhoid Marys.

    Delivery stopped when I sent a newsletter back, with a message 'Unsolicited mail from Satan"!

    Grab some loudspeakers and play back this outside the conference venue... ;D

    @Grant & Russell:

    "Don't tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers: the Herald on Sunday is read by people who think they run the country; The Sunday Star Times is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The NZ Herald is read by people who actually do run the country; the Listener is read by the wives of the people who run the country; the NBR is read by people who own the country; Scoop is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Dom Post is read by people who think it is."

    "Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Truth?"

    "Truth readers don't care who runs the country, as long as she's got big tits."

    What kind of a parent lets their kid run onto the road in the first place? Probably the same kind of parent who throws out their kids' prescribed medication because illnesses are caused by Satan.

    Craig R: sadly, some people still think 1984 is a training manual.

    Danielle:

    Just so this post isn't solely complaining-about-my-incompetence, here is a thing I like: fake advertising for the iPod, laptops, mobile phones, and gaming consoles (if they existed in 1977).

    Transistorpunk!

  • Hard News: The Disingenuous Press,

    Craig:

    Think he'd have written a slightly different column if Chris Carter had gotten around Parliament with a phalanx of bitch-slapping drag queens to make sure the press pack didn't disturb his serenity with their uppity ways?

    Or Shane Jones with a nosebleed-inducing harem entourage?

    Yellow journalists caught on tape with bulges in their pants? Priceless.
