  • Hard News: The Report Card,

    I have to admit my glasses were very rosey back when I was 21 as well...big ups to them...

    I wonder if G.Dubya was invited to the wedding?

  • Cracker: In Which Damian Grouches about…,

    just managed to catch Children of Men down at the "Oamaru Movieland 3" .. nice surprise as I had missed it here in Chch.. Have to say this is a great movie!
    It deserves an oscar at least for the sets.

    BTW the way I have to plug for my fave review site www.metacritic.com which I don't think can be beat!

    Plus I mean..who takes the oscars seriously anyway?

  • Politics 08,

    Our esteemed politicians return from vacation,
    In their hearts are the interests of our nation,
    But the all the brains of this bunch,
    are still at the beach having lunch,
    So we are left with another year of piss taking.

  • Hard News: There's a funny bit at the…,

    hmmm ... after living in over in Oz (North Brisbane) for 6 years or so, including a longish stint it's state school system, my 2 cents would be to say that the racism there is far more widespread.

    We learned jack about the Aboriginals, zero about the shameful past, "open seasons" etc, while Australia Day was so pimped, it should have been on July the 4th, and this was back in the 80's.

    Back then most Queenslanders were worried about the "Japs" coming in and buying up all of the Gold Coast.

    Certainly there is racism here in NZ, but in OZ I'd call it McRacism it's so widely accepted.

  • Hard News: Of course it's about the book,

    there once was a politician called Brash
    who got into bed with rightwing wackos who had cash
    in the end he didn't use protection
    and got a nasty Hagar infection
    and now all of National will develop the rash.

  • What do you want them to play at your funeral?,

    Mr Judd beat me to it. I too want "We don't know how lucky we are."

    But I also want:
    - "Dont worry, Be Happy" - Bobby McFerrin of course.
    - "When the Levee Breaks" Led Zep
    - "I Hate Cats" Rodney Rude.

    And maybe some talented masherupperer could remix "It's my Funeral, I'll Die if I Want to."
