  • Hard News: Swine flu, terror and Susan Boyle,

    Obvious troll is obvious.

    But now we know the creature's weakness: it has to sleep.

  • Hard News: Swine flu, terror and Susan Boyle,

    Today was a beautiful late Autumn day. I am so glad I did not waste it on this pointless argument. It was a murder - an intentional, unlawful killing. It was an act of terrorism - the victim was killed because the murderer objected to his lawful professional activities, in order to stop him and to intimidate his peers into stopping their lawful professional activities.

  • Hard News: Swine flu, terror and Susan Boyle,

    I worries me to think that, when Swine flue comes back bigger and badder, the media will give it little attention because it is old news. Instead they will be beating up talent show contenders.

  • OnPoint: Budget 2009: “Aww, shit.”…,

    Vernon Small on Stuff: "But the big surprises are in the extent of delays to tax cuts and future contributions to the Cullen superannuation fund."

    Even I could have predicted those two. Equally surprising are more cops on the street and more prison beds. Laura Norder is the winner on the day.

  • Field Theory: How I Roll (pt1),

    I am all for social participation but I cannot abide wearing a pair of shoes which has had many previous wearers.

    My last bowling experience was at the Lanes, after which I vowed never to humiliate myself and to let down others in public again.

  • Island Life: Symptoms persist,

    Let's get ambitious. Can we rig some sort of self-powered gondolier system, where you strap your bike into a safety cage with linked rollers under the back wheel and pedal yourself along below the bridge? Great fun in a strong breeze...

    Clearly you have thought about this issue at length.Me, I want a tunnel, a transparent one laid on the harbour bed; so we could watch the fishes while we cycle. It would be like Kelly Tarletons or, on a bad day, Jaws 3-D.

  • Hard News: ffunnell Up!,

    My discomfort in having PA linked to Kiwiblog in a commercial venture could only be described as palpable.

    I am still deciding how to react to Public Address being linked to Kimberley Crossman

  • Hard News: ffunnell Up!,

    The lower case double f in ffunnell makes my heart sing. Sometimes I wish my name were ffoulkes, just so I could be canterkerous and pedantic about using the correct case.

  • Hard News: Current affairs TV in "making…,

    Well, that killed the thread. Suddenly, having the green salad seems an attractive option after all.

  • Hard News: Current affairs TV in "making…,

    Tom, I think you have had too much crispy bacon. This is not about my mortality, but the well-being of other beings, sentient creatures. If our happiness requires the suffering of others, we should at least think about changing our behaviour.
