The Wellington Cringe,
So where are you based?
Wellington
Oh, work for the Government then?
Oh no, consultant.
To the Government.

Nice suit bro. -
And so, like all great creatures from The Deep...they killed it.

Nais, I've had a similar moment, phew. In the bad old days, the Police didn't pay too much attention to domestic violence, they sure do now, because of Moral Focus by Legal Attention. I think this is similar in that it's the focus given, or what I think RB called the Moral Focus.
The Authoritarian (old days Patriarchal) argument is a strong one, ruler of my domain and all within it, type psychology, they still exist. -
Jo Bennett, danger to traffic, I nearly fell asleep at the wheel when he commenced talking, strange little angles he takes for what reason, shock, horror. Being contraire for the sake of an angle can be funny, but not when it's PR driven.
I think we have a time-lag operating in the media, those who read, contribute to, or have blogs and those who don't or won't.
I was also thinking as I listened, hell, thanks RB, where do you get the energy and sheer resilience. -
The Auckland vs Wellington thing is really tedious, shades of Top Town. BTW, did anyone see the Unauthorised Version of NZ History the other night, will it be available on YouTube? Looking at images of NZ in say, 1987, boy have we come a long way.
I was wondering if blogs are speeding up the dialogs, if so hopefully Sean may read some and realize that intra-city smugness is like so last century. -
Heh, I was on the phone chatting to my daughter and she said, "f#uck someones under my bed", I thought, this'll be interesting, she hopped round for a bit gingerly searching under said bed, it stopped, no one under the bed, we continued talking.

Oh God, er that is Messiah, must not joke about The Big Guy.

"What would you like us to do Messish?"
