  • Not Guilty,

    Bloody Gloves vs Bloody Socks (Defense said their respective hands/feet wouldn't fit)
    Phone calls recorded
    Both actors of a fashion
    Both stood to inherit the estate
    Both not guilty

    Yeah, uncanny.
    One was a big black guy, the other wasn't.
    One was an American, the other wasn't.
    One was a footbal player, the other wasn't.
    One involved a slow police chase, the other didn't.
    One had their house burned down, the other didn't.
    One had gloves, the other had socks.
    Its like a mirror image eh?

  • Not Guilty,

    This trial aways reminded me of the fate of Timothy Evans I am just glad we don't still have the death penalty.

    Busy week. Wednesday is Back Benches Mt Albert election special @ Mac's Neighbourhood Bar in Kingsland and Thursday is Great Blend @ Monte Cristo Room. I expect you to be at both. ;-)

  • Hard News: Night at the Museum,

    Sorry Russ, I really didn't see you, apart from onstage.
    My sciatica was playing up and I was having a truly miserable time all was but a painful blur. Otherwise it was a good evening. :-(

    James. Are you sure that applies to list MPs? It just seems wrong. Surely a list MP could be demoted and their seat allocated to the next one on the list and if the MP was expelled from the party they would have no right to retain that seat. or is it just another case of morally wrong but legally right.

    On the subject of Goff's involvement, I see it another way.
    I suggest Goff approached John Key in a "respectful" manner about the allegation, any Machiavellian machinations at this point being a bit of dirt to keep up the sleeve for future use if Key did nothing. Fact of the matter is Worth seems to have "Done it again" and foiled Goff's insurance plan. In the light of that possible scenario Goff has done what any realistic politician would have done. Getting rid of Worth was never going to be a great prize for the opposition but having Key seen as one who fluffed around on such an issue would have seemed like gold.

  • Island Life: The resignation of Captain Worth,

    It's precisely the "...xt..." sound that Key has trouble with,

    I guess that's why Telecom chose Richard Hammond instead of John Key then.
