  • Hard News: Trading Trade Me?,

    Yep have to agree theTradeMe search engine is shite.

    TradeMe is often full of cheap-ass tyre kickers

    Hmm, its a bit of both this and people who have an over inflated sense of what they think their goods are worth.

  • Hard News: A Weird Day in the Hood,

    It seems obvious that a clear picture of events needs to be established by the investigations before anybody talks about a prosecution.

    What! A careful consideration of evidence before coming to a conclusion? Are you mad!

    Well that exchange just about sums it up for me.

    And the New Zealand MSM (that makes them sound grander than they are) made the usual hash of it all.
    And never ever listen to RadioLive when something like this happens.

  • Up Front: Why Does Love Do This to Me?,

    but her heart was thumping like a punk drummer on P, and slow heat was spreading through her loins.

    You sure it wasnt Deep Heat?
    And the drummer must have been Des Truction

    You should apply for Parliamentary superannuation. What's the worst that could happen?

    And who could fail to agree that The Herald on Sundayis a sheltered workshop for the journalistically challenged?

    That or the newsroom at TVNZ7, which ruins an otherwise lovely little channel except for some of the reruns from however many years ago.

    Note to programmers look at what you program in realtime BEFORE you decide to put it to air.

    Who knew Backbenches could be (at times) such a delight, oh and of course that other program, name slips my mind at present.

    Hope the crowd got full value for their tickets -- unlike the B-list guests at one ball who were pleased that they'd spent hours in line for a security lockdown. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you don't run a party.

    Oh me too, I want full value and not a B-grade world if I can stretch a metaphor out of that.
    Unlike the image they project or stereotypes people have of them. Most US citizens (and it seems you too Graig) are deeply emotional people in a way that others should emulate, but not is a slavish way.
    The number of trends in thinking that have swept thru the US
    and the rest of the world has had the joy of witnessing and learning from, well its left them vulnerable.
    And I think the western world really should get behind them if the US can set a direction that will benefit the world long term. But can they disarm to some degree and not stumble into war. Well Im not a religious person but I would pray for that.

    Finlay MacDonald has I think, written a considered piece about it.

    Don't let it distract you from your creeping Jesus posturing.

    Ah I see you didnt look at the link.
    Bit of a non sequiter there Joe, or do you just like accusing people of having a jeebus complex cause it sounds good. Dick.

    ..... can bitch about pop stars all he likes, but if this doesn't melt your heart you don't have one ...

    Checks chest for beating of internal organ which facilitates movement of re oxygenated blood around body.
    Yep still there. OH you meant the other heart, the one in your head.

    While the song has a beauty, Beyonsis's rendition lacks something. (Perhaps I prefer those who want to evoke an emotion in me to actually have experienced some deeper emotions, other than sycophancy and covert ambition, themselves.) Yes Im saying I find her shallow.

    And the gushing of emotions that I see streaming from the audience borders on the toxic. But hey maybe thats just me.

    And I find things like this more inspiring

    If Obama and his team can turn around the mess they have inherited mebbe humanity will have a future longer than another few thousand years. But hey no pressure.
