The sweetness: Got my copy. Whitcoulls, St Lukes. Looked like there were about 10 left.

Craig, just joining the fun on the guessing game. I didn't notice Lockwood was already eliminated. I wouldn't be playing if I had the book.
I must say I'm impressed that you're up late here defending the Nats. The other usual Nat supporters have packed up or stuck to Kiwiblog etc. You've got stamina at least.
I agree with all your comments that the private mail store of most pollies would be treasure trove of embarrassing dirt. Unless they're like me, and don't really favour email as a form of communication, despite being in the email business! But I got caught out long ago on minor email indiscretion so I learned not to commit to digital form things that you wouldn't say in public, because one day they may very well become public.
Having agreed with that, it still doesn't make all these revelations of cynical lies any less cynical or mendacious. Sorry man. I'd love an expose of private Labour email, that would be a real look at how power works. But we haven't got one, so I'll have to make do looking at how crooked the Nats are instead.

Homophobic thingo...lockwood?

This guesswork is making me bitter. Damn that Whitcoulls, looks like I won't be breaking my rule of never buying another printed word after all, if all the good bits are going to be public knowledge before the release. But this dripfeed is frustrating!
Perhaps I could just make a donation to Hager directly and cut them out of the loop and profits.

Re: contraception: Easy one, Brash again. You can tell by the appeal of the savings. Think like an accountant.

Alistair, that's too easy...they've all advised Brash, and secured promises from...sheesh, and I don't even have the book.

Lucy, you could also get a 'Familiar name' by clicking 'Reply All' on a message that copied in that person. I wouldn't read too much into it. I'm sure a lot of famous people have their full names entered into address books of people they've never heard of. Perhaps the mail server resolved the email address and filled in the field in the faux header.

I see the injunction is lifted

...does that mean the book will be on sale today? Would love to have some weekend reading.

Oh, and the only religious experience I've had stoned was Mormons at my door, ironically. Fortunately my hippocampus was too unsychronized for any lasting impressions.

Imagine how yucky a joint would get if you were the hundreth person in line! But the roach would be real wicked, if rather moist.
Regarding rat hippocampuses, surely the fabled memory effects of THC are when you are *not high*. Everyone knows you can't remember or even think straight when you're stoned....
