I'd like to do a study to see if the National Party rules in the interests of the rich at the expense of the poor. i feel a Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence coming on.
the best weight loss to be had by far comes from either contracting cancer, or having someone close to you having terminal cancer. it's a sure winner on the road to being a skeletor.

"would have started a lot of young police recruits to question what they were doing, how they were doing it, and how they were perceived by Joe Public"
From my unscientific sample of one young police officer of my acquaintance, this is true. Unfortunately he was drummed out of the force
a couple of my friends have recently had their kids go through police college and from those accounts it sounds like there are still some fairly unusual attitudes being propagated there, and active attempts to discourage graduates (pointed headed poofters think they're better than anyone else) and females (maaate, say no more etc)
The vast majority of police I've known... have been normal genuine guys, but they tolerate the fuckwits in their own ranks
yeah. RB's comment that Police officers have a hell of a job. They do things most of us could, or are glad not to is indesputable and i still believe most cops are good. but the good ones totally have to finish off the bent ones that produce so many problems for the community and for the law respecting parts of the police force.
but i don't fancy their chances either, bent cops aren't exactly big on playing cleanly, or by the rules. -
I keep wanting to say yes! Me too!
yes me too me too.
i have also enjoyed and been changed somehow by lots of
1. 'crap' books because they can still be quite illustrative - i mean Mills and Boon (1 or 2 should be enough)can actually be really interesting for understanding some social malaise; Commando comics for their extreme kiddy propaganda
2. reference books on anything i knew nothing about and generally still no nothing about but am now more aware of how little i know about them -
a few people who were angry that these musicians had been able to live off their art, and felt that they should actually be doing a "proper job"
yeah it's only a proper job when you're turning out untold pieces of consumer shite to make rich people richer

yeah but this is true.
