    fear weather...

    Its too much for dullards like Key, Brownlee, Dunne, and even Shearer to come to grips with. But hey, they are just politicians, not really interested in consciousness.

    They slavishly follow the Western reactive paradigm
    - 'treat', or manage, the symptoms, never the causes...

    Staying hydrated, with a straight back and less environmental and psychic stress would go a long way towards getting rid of a lot of fear, ill health and rage...
    Creating inclusive communities with informed and engaged members would quell the need for more police and ease stretched health services.

    Cloud boy…

    Clouds are cool.

    Same day, I guess the cold air froze the Jet Con Trails as well, as they hung around for a loooong time – hope the Chem Trail proponents aren’t right – I mean, who would want Chchch to be more subservient or tractable?

    the futility of futurity...

    “going forward” well ok that two words
    and yes when people say it to me, I must resist
    the urge to smack them

    + 1
    I know, what happened to 'in the future'?

    ...and as any fool know,
    Super Sid was a half back,
    not a forward...

    hmmm, I might just nominate 'I know' for W(s)OTD
    - said in the wonderful Kim Hill's dulcet tones of credulity, of course...

  • Hard News: Looking at Leveson,

    Enough!!
    It's not just the papers, is it?
    Radio, TV, and the Net weigh in as media riddled with self entitled, ill considered behaviours, tacitly condoned and enabled by lack of consequences for harms done.
    Case in point - this sad story I read this morning:

    A nurse who took a prank call at the London hospital that was treating Prince William's pregnant wife Kate for morning sickness has been found dead, the hospital said.
    The nurse, Jacintha Saldanha, was a 46-year-old mother of two.
    The death, which is being treated as a suspected suicide, comes days after the King Edward VII hospital apologised after falling for the call from an Australian radio station and relaying details about Kate's condition.

    I hope that the Australian radio announcers who perpetrated this are pilloried, if not prosecuted - this is effectively cyber bullying of strangers. They ended up pushing this poor nurse into the limelight, and too far, purely to amuse themselves - abhorrent.

    Rock music...

    Someone had been rearranging rocks during the day

    Judging by the size of it, that was probably
    done by the Spinal Tap road crew...
