  • Hard News: Veitch,

    To get on my soapbox, if you see that a woman's refuge is collecting, give.

    Word.

    In fact I 'd be honoured to pledge the first $20 bucks to the TV Guide to Women's Justice and Recovery from Violence fund.

    Anyway, I'm serious. Rename it so as we don't perpetuate the trivialisation already afoot but why not direct this anger and frustration into a good old-fashioned positive doohickey.

    And we can always be noisy about it too. No point TV Utd/Ltd getting all the action.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    I'm tempted to say something defamatory (albiet ruthlessly honest) to see if the prick sics his lawyers on me (or Russell - sorry dude, collateral damage).

    Then I could stand up in court - with the media rabble standing by salivating - and say it again and again and again...

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    How this whole thing has played out represents everything I abhor about the media, PR, the place of sport in NZ, lawyers, "celebrities" and the refusal of bullies to own their actions and the repercussions thereof.

    A plague (a really nasty one that makes them poo themselves relentlessly) on all their houses.

  • Speaker: Surviving Small,

    I have some clients come here, but only for individual mentoring/career planning type sessions.

    Hey Ange, I have a friend who could use services like those. How can I contact you?

  • Hard News: High Noon,

    Not that I'm espousing anything in particular here but my dear old Dads just sent me the below link. He reckons hiding from your ISP would be a cunning kind of protest.

    I haven't had time to check it out so if anyone does and wants to elaborate on its potential effectiveness please do.

  • Cracker: Narked,

    But by all means, ponce around in the sun and sea for our vicarious pleasure and edification.

  • Hard News: A Full Sense of Nationhood,

    I for one welcome our new overlords.

    You're such a slut Brockman.

  • Hard News: A Full Sense of Nationhood,

    Ahhh....nothing like a discussion with Waitangi Day as the original topic to keep the blood pumping during digressions/threadjacks.

    Perhaps that's why I usually start drinking early on Feb 6th.
