Friday Night Free For All

December 22, 2006

Anticipating a quiet evening online as everyone engages in last minute panic spending, but we are here and our operators are standing by.


Nice Space Station you got there Bro…

December 19, 2006

Shame if someone backed into it eh.

Ok yes nice picture and you can see my house from here, but….

You might like to give some thought to NOT letting certain people know you’re up there.

Houston we have a… some guy called Rangi demanding “60 bucks and no one gets hurt”????

Yes this sort of thing DOES happen.

UPDATE: KRM your threat holds no terror! In fact we say nyah nyah nayh, we defy you to do your worst space persons! Throw the biggest rock you have, we care not for your space type mineral deliveries!

Please note: We are currently located here…

Note to National Party Web Critters.

December 18, 2006

I subscribed to Don Brash’s newsletter, not John Keys’.

Don’t send me crap I didn’t ask for, that’s called “spamming”. To make it clear, anything that contains the words “climate change” in the first sentence is a dictionary definition of CRAP in my book.

Taking voters for granted can cost you elections. Evidently you’re moving on from losing the last election by preparing for losing the next election.

You can fly it into the ground if you like, but turn off the pilot’s commentary for this passenger, thanks.


I’m Baaack

December 18, 2006

So Auckland was Auckland - which is enough to make sane people (all non-jafas) hope like hell that this alleged global warming climate change will actually turn out to have some legs, and the next tide will be about 100′ above normal.

Now that I’m back in the place where you don’t have stand still traffic at 0700 when you’re still 50 k’s from the cbd, it’s time to get to work on the next project..

I have to have one of these up and working within four weeks. There’s some very flash custom casting to be done, and there’s no telling how much kick this puppy will have, or where the… erm “payload” will go, and the yank the string time.

On an unrelated matter, you may want to stay clear of SH2 between the Moonshine and Totara Park Bridges for the next couple of weeks.

UPDATE: The paper test model has now been made. Of course having gone that far I may as well colour it and make it a commercial item. Queue all the whinging free loaders, who think the world owes them everything, and a free lunch thrown in for good measure.

If you own this car and you don’t like your picture being here, then provide verifiable evidence of a $100 donation to Operation Mobility, and I’ll remove it.

While your car obstructed this space, and the others were likewise occupied, I watched an elderly couple wait for a space so they could do their shopping. The gentleman could barely walk and needed to have a trolly brought to him to hold him up.

Just an observation.

Merry Christmas.

And in the words of the Carpenters: “We’ve only just begun”.


Battling Blog Cartoons! (Is Blogtoon a word yet?)

December 13, 2006

John and Allen have issues.

Fortunatetly they also have their Cartoons to hide the fact that they should probably be in care of some kind.

Once again they are Weblog Awards Finalists, and once again they are duking it out with Chris Muir of the Day by Day fame.

Go visit and follow the links, to see the depths these people will sink to.

And as Allen says, they have locked up the Muslim trans-gender vote… however many trans-gender politically conservative Muslim blog readers are out there, they will be voting Cox & Forkum!


ROAD TRIP!

December 13, 2006

Off to Auckland for the weekend.

Leave your offers of free meal/alcohol in the comments. Time will be short and keep in mind I hate the damn place having been born there so make the most of it I’m not planning of doing it again in the near future.


One of the biggest lies ever told.

December 12, 2006

“We all know that people are the same where ever you go”.


For those interested.

December 10, 2006

A couple of auctions for the locals. I’m selling off a few things, starting with some armour and my trebuchet.

I’ll be adding a few other items later that may be of interest.


Murray’s Cryptic Movie Reviews

December 10, 2006

An “all star” cast of Americans butchers a classic and produce what appears to be the bastard child of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers violently mated with the Kirkaldies Christmas Shop.

It hurt to watch.

God damn TV programers and their seasonal abuse of the senses! God curse you, every one!
