"plutoligarchy"
But that's just what I see...
Oh for a Meritocracy...
Just the Able and Talented - not the Worthy...
Though there is much worth in an over-throw
of the Kakistocracy as it stands!I get an election just thinking about it...

One Rink to bind them...
Here in Christchurch of course the Council is developer, banker, and an anticompetitive business operator.
Latest CCC undermining of local business:
The council has allowed The Arts Festival to put an Ice Rink, the TV One Ice Dome using the City Council's newly purchased inflato-Dome, in the Square - undermining a perfectly good local Ice Rink in Brougham street - nice one!
Would've been nice to consult and or include them - but no... Cold-hearted Chch indeed...and just what is an arts festival doing running an ice rink any way - no ice follies, dance or productions of the Snow Queen or anything that I can see listed - they allude to demonstrations and performances but nothing definite ... WTF?

I love those old guides...
How Now Brown OwlIn the old Press proofreading room my favourites were - "No sun in Sumner and no ham in Hanmer" and of course that old standby " E for envelopes" when choosing stationery or stationary, and lest we forget the rule for averting apostrophe catastrophe* "poss ess for possession" except when it's its property of course : )

sheesh - thanks for the kind words folks...
@ Islander - I'm sure you have a good grasp on the difference between Entomolgy and Etymology - just so long as there are no pins or formaldehyde involved... let the ha ha harvesting begin ;-)
@ Patricia (& others) cheers - but do let me know if I get tiresome and start chewing the scenery, too. And heck, what is the admission fee? I think I've been sneaking in - unless it is one's soul or sanity I don't have a good grasp on either of those...yrs

dorks ex machina...
I have to admit that I had thought the two "trolls" might've actually been an artifcial intelligence construct - ghosts in the machine - I'm sure they'd never have passed a Turing Test... no compassion, they reminded me of psychotic acid overdose cases I've met, picking fights and prodding raw psychic wounds... shudder.... and, gasp, those anagrams were definitely machine generated! - the mere thought! Pshaw and ptui...yrs

How do tattoos get murkier?
Sunlight!
apparently it makes them blur, spread, fade and merge - even tatty - as I heard on the interview (link below) on Nat Radio last Friday night.Geoff Ostling - out of his skin the Sunlight info is about halfway or after from memory

Mr H - Obviously ya took the words write out of his mouth - so the meat-loafer had a go at cats...
(I can just see him on the banks of the mighty Whanganui, his Cleopatra eyes glistening like gaffed eels, a wriggling sugar sack in one hand, and I dread to think what, in the other...)
... and as well as his few lines on felines he flayed felons freely, oh and North Korea got a telling off
( ...it's like a Jong il sometimes... ) - that'll sort 'em...
... and I'd never have picked him as an anti-Zionist
but he lambastes the "Game Park" for having ...... this view that all wild animals are really human. Or would like to be... ...Promoting the belief that you can anthropomorphise the wild.
when he had, himself, only a few paragraphs earlier, said:
They then engage in the kind of practices that are the realm of the dirty mac brigade. Not exactly family viewing as these priapic primates pleasure themselves.
and he talks about logic!
Does he really get money for this mish-mash tosh?
