First shes an utterly crap student.
Then she doesn’t get the free ride she thinks her money should get her and bitches about it.
She goes to the N Z Herald and wants to bitch about it anyomously as well.
Shes gets what she wants, the man who dared cross her is fired out of hand - questions remain unanswered as to what part her wealthy family played in this.
Now SHES the victim and doesn’t feel safe and wants to study somewhere else and scurries off to her home town media to play it up for the tame audience????
Well boo fucking hoo. Don’t let the airplane door hit you ass on the way out of the country.
The more about this exchange that comes to light the less favorable this student looks. Not to mention the administration who made what appears to be a decision based on politics and money.

Join us and there will be meat!
For all.
I really can’t this taking off at all. You new age pysdo-interlectual plastic hippies will be happy with your veges, carrots, pickles, whatever. For the rest of us, its ALL about the meat.
The difference is, we don’t go around posturing that we’re better than everyone who doesn’t hold with our way of doing things. Till now.

Yes an accurate simulation of modern politics you can play online.
On the left we have the “Lefties” or “socialists”. On the right is a small beleaguered team of “Extreme Right Wing Christian Fundamentalists Controlled By Karl Rove and Corporate America” which is a generic label applied to anyone who is not a “socialist”.
The socialists seek to convert all to their way of “thinking” while the right team just want them piss the hell off.
Game tip: Head shots work well for socialists under any circumstances.

Nothing. So, just to start a conversation: what were the best movies you saw for the past, say, 6 months? Mine would have to be: “The Departed”, “Breach”, “The illusionist”, “The Good Shepherd”, “Flags of Our Fathers”, “The Prestige”, “Fracture”, “300″ (in that order, more or less). Parts of “Borat” were screamingly funny, but larger parts were excruciatingly boring. “Mr. Bean” was surprisingly bearable. And, if you have not seen “Perfect Stranger”, consider yourself perfectly lucky.

This is what comes of a trebuchet designer talking to a computer repair guy and a couple of associated nutjobs.
For $5 you can pull the trigger of the trebuchet and fling your old computer.
For $15 we’ll film it and give you a digital video of your fling.
Slogan: Get Medieval on your computer!
Discuss.
As an aside any old computer gear would come in handy. Ta.

I meant to look for it on Youtube, and kept forgetting. I was reminded, however, at quite an unexpected place - thanks, Julian
This is Israel’s notorious entry to Eurovision. BTW, the correct name of the band is not Teapacks, but Tipp-ex. Follow the “Misuse” link on the Tipp-ex Wiki entry for a, um, tip on the possible reason for that particular name for the band, and also for the possible reason why it may be deliberately misspelled in Europe.

The three B’s of western civilisation, bribery, boobies and beating the opposition!
So Whaleoil gets some fan mail involving breasts. Whoo freaken hoo. He’s gotten all excited about it posted the picture.
Well get some time up sonny, been there done that sold them the t-shirt. Yes I could compete in the groupie stakes but I wont for two reasons 1: I promised I would published those pictures and C: She’s technically not “wearing” a HMWAH shirt as such.
Therefore I’m looking for a team spirited young lady to show fish boy how its done. Go here, pick a product, wear it, take picture, send me a picture and I’ll post it. Do I need to explain that the picture will be of a girl in the shirt????

Your boobies wanted here!
All legitimate entries will receive a Gnome Home of their choice sent to whoever they want. Boys need not apply. Any exceedingly hot girl* brave enough to share her thong moment with us will get a Gnome Village.
*Judge’s decision of what qualifies as ‘exceedingly hot” is based on decades of experience and observation and will not be questioned.

Do you have an urge to throw wads of cash at someone else’s pet project for the priceless return of getting your name on an event program, and some unsubtle product placement when the TV cameras are running?
Well, then throw your money this direction.
I am currently completing the organisation for a re-enactment event for siege engines to be held in May. Exhibitors and competitors have been sorted, along with the event logistics and program.
What we need at this stage is advertising, and a wad of cash to build this:

A fairly hefty trebuchet, which stands just under 2 meters tall, and has a 3 meter throwing arm, with a release height of just over 6 meters.
This would be why we’re using a rifle range. Interested wealthy people can email me here.
And yes, I’m too lazy to do two posts, so this is the Friday Night Free For All as well.
