    If it wasn't BZP, it'd be something else. And likely something stronger that has to be sourced from the nasties...

    BZP is relatively mild (dammit it all) in a recommended dose...if someone chooses to exceed the recommended dose then well...

    That's just natural selection init?

  • Hard News: More party pill palaver,

    Arguably, making party pills legal was a sick joke, that has gone terribly wrong...

    Really? Let's hear that argument...

  • Hard News: More party pill palaver,

    I am not into drugs legal or ilegal, in fact I cannot really understand why people take them.

    And you never will until you open your mind and give them a whirl.

    The reasons people indulge are not particularly esoteric, and can usually be boiled down to one of opportunity, curiosity, boredom and the fact that a nice drug is a nice drug.

  • Hard News: Inauspicious,

    Michael, you're an embarassment to all Left handed people everywhere. I think several people on this thread are somewhat divorced from reality (including myself - what kinda fool quotes Whitney in public?) but at least they're having a go at thinking instead of just name dropping. Is that a Che Guevera T-shirt you're wearing?

    Mr M,

    Twas James that dropped that particular name, I just repeated it to ruin his day...

    Having said that, I'd be stoked to have me boy Choms in charge of tings. With a big whopping stick to back up those quiet words...

    And I wouldn't be seen dead in a Che-shirt...nor Whitney's nor any of those ridiculously over-hyped attention seekers...

    James,

    I know I've been bad, what with making with the sarcasm and the naughty words and all....

    But your assiduous analysis and balanced opining just blow my mind out my mouth before tongue can constrain.

    Apologies of course...it's just personal.

    Iraq's oil is Iraq's oil, to do with as they please

    James, I know Russell would disapprove but, you're an idiot.

    Or maybe you're simply naive. Either way, it's embarrassing.

  • Hard News: Grandpa,

    Poignant stuff Russell, thanks.

    It reminded me of my Grandad Bob, who passed on his love of carpentry to my brother. Bro is now an esteemed master builder in Queenstown, and will likely be passing on his skills to his own newborn son.

    I still have some of my wooden toys that were painstakingly crafted by Grandad before arthritis muted his abilities...

    He was of Swedish stock and fought for the Poms in WWII before emigrating to NZ. He was an incredibly generous soul who didn't say much but had one of the twinkliest smiles I've ever encountered...

    Good on you for providing a space to share these stories...

    Merry Xmas all...

  • Summer Holiday,

    Xmas.....my fav excuse for rampant misanthropy...

    Did anyone happen to catch the BandAid show last night?

    I'll be seeking out a hammock, staying drunk and avoiding just about everything.
