As explained to me, by a drunk Marxist, the key to having a successful religion is to have a really big book filled with contradictory information. Then religious leaders sell all subjective truth in religion by reading the bits that appeal to their customers.

I find it strange that the unions are seeking to protect these few stat days, when there's a line in the sand about protecting worker's time that's about four km that way, well and truly crossed years ago.
Its because of how a line was crossed years ago. It was approached for entirely reasonable goals, it was crossed in the rush and then disappeared "4 km that-a-way" in a seeming instant.
So getting rid of the 3 stats is a reasonable argument? Okay. What else will be riding on this horsie?

They care enough for Iraqis to risk their own lives to stop insurgents who might someday blow up apartment blocks with people inside.

To be fair, rodgerd, Prebble may have been discussing that alternate reality where we had a bunch of [ageing, poorly specced, ex-Taiwanese] trophy-F16s on hand to protect us from unorthodox flour delivery mechanisms.
Or that people in the stadium were sufficiently imaginative to worry, because they didn't know which part of the anti-apartheid pool the pilots inhabited HART or Umkhoto we Siwze.

I'm not placing a value judgment on this, but New Zealand rugby fans just aren't the chanting, singing type.
Best rugby viewing moment was singing the Mooloo chant whilst watching Waikato smash Otago in 1992 final.

Water? Do the contents of the hot water cylinder count?
Might dig out the old homebrew kit. Stopped using it years ago because it always resulted in having lots of very sub-par beer. Stuff that would sit around for long periods undrunk and eventually need to be drained away - at the time I felt this was a disadvantage, but now that the Big One is coming...

In the Taranaki dairy town of Eltham, 50 lonely protestors were showered with eggs and bottles...
It'll all have been worth it when the John Minto Boulevard of Dreams is opened.

I'm just not sure why this means I should include money given to MoveOn.org in assessing the amount of money Obama received in donations.
Which you can't do, because George Soros' $millions only come with one vote attached.
Assessing a candidates popularity based on their campaign budget/$2000 is not real accurate, because the popularity is both their positives and the other candidates negatives.

Nuclear armed, radar stealthed chickens dive bombing at Mach 5 vs sharks with frikk'n lasers.
