    re #...

    By way of correction – you need two blunt knives, a plastic bottle, a stove and to have paid your electrical bill for this to work.

    That's what they call 'making a hash' of something, huh?
    Waaay back I met a person who had done this and had blacked out, leaving them with a lovely spiral shaped Eutron element burn on one side of their face...
    Be careful out there folks....

    The Toilette Zone - Doo doo doo doo...

    And is that man of yours making any progress on my toilette?

    Hmmm, smells like - Owe d'Toilette...
    And that sounds kinda like an Oubliette ?
    - well it is a hole in the ground with a trapdoor
    that you can, er, dung(e)on...

    Oh I know, toilet n toilette are different beasts
    though ya can get blue shins in cold outdoor bogs...

    Just Kidding A...

    Unless they come on to us, but I won’t hold my breath.

    I hadn't realised Radiohead were so flirtatious...
    I'd always pegged them as more shoe-gazers than heavy hitters!

    the Empire's Vampire Umpires...

    so once we've all voted - how do 'they' decide? Um.

    I reckon for such high stake stuff they send in the Count with his death adders, sundry calculating bastards and show-off hands to cook the books before we come to our census.
    Psephology is a fascinating field, it's not all pebbles and bam bam...

  • Hard News: The Minister's Brain Has Exploded,

    Rugger buggered by AC/DC…
    well, a temporary power line really,
    and maybe a transformer explosion…
    (Sheer la Boof!?)
    But dammit, it meant I missed the last ten minutes or so of the Samoa vs SA game last night, apparently the temporary overhead high tension line bringing power to our part of Chchch ceased working (8000 odd houses affected) – it was restored some time after midnight, but I didn’t get the result until this morning.
    Poor Samoa…
    Bloody earthquake flow-on effects…
    And that stupid searchlight (- of hope – hah! ) kept on going, aimlessly wandering about the firmament, questing for the Brownlee Blimp of better times and rubbing our noses in our suburban powerlessness….
    grrrr…

    Unfortunately, this seems to be what most revolutionaries think, which is why the successful ones end up as crude, more corrupt caricatures of those they replaced

    look at Joan of Arc - the solution there was just to torch her as well...

    Beings Rest Finally…
    Sorry to hear about Dan Birch, I just thought about them a coupla days ago (spotting a BRF number plate!) and recalled the graffiti that appeared in wellington 2 or 3 decades ago BRF: Off the Beat, Out of Rhythm, Into Fashion (or similar), it was a competitive (and bitchy) town back then!
    I went to a coupla parties at Dan and Nino’s flat on The Terrace (May’ve even taken Chris Knox to one when he was filming a segment on Wellington bands – IIRC Blurry Remembering Faculties ) when I was sorta trying to help with Naked Spots Dance – The Four Stars LP (Wellington sampler) still gets a play now and then. and Rob Mayes has done sterling work in keeping BRF available check them out here

    Pour Cow, and this time put a head on it...

    Putting a condom on your tea might actually make it not worth drinking.

    Lactose and Latex intolerance, like the cream, is rising...

    Dicking for cover...

    I just think that such things, like Jack Bauer,
    are unlikely to happen or exist in reality.

    Cheney, Cheney,
    Cheney boots of leather...

    Oh right, I’m pretending to be new.

    Nice gravatar, is that a Moulting teaser Falcon
    or some sort of Puffin MacGuffin?
