There is no filthier look than the one Mister Wilfred, our cat, gives me when he sees me throwing crusts and other unwanted bits of bread out for the birds.
"Dude," he seems to say, "you know how much I hate them, and those little chirrpy chumps laugh at me - AT ME - yet you're giving them food"

Currently listening to "Cuckoo" by Curve. And this song...
"I would like to invite you to my mother's house, to my bedroom, to play those old records we know all the words to."

A very egregious falsehood.
My mistake was the assertion that NZ is a real place.

As usual, if you want a left wing government next term, maybe vote for a party to the left of Labour?

With the death of Tom Stoppard, let's take a minute to consider how unlikely it is we'll see in out lifetimes another playwright whose name alone was enough to get a four hour, five act history play with a cast of FORTY commercially staged in the West End with a Broadway transfer.

By the way: 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead", the film, is on YouTube.
You should watch it. In memory of Tom Stoppard.

Weirdest thing.
I was watching... something. But, fell asleep on the sofa, then awoke seeing Billy Bob Thornton being very Billy Bob. And handsome as Billy Bob does.
Anyway, I'm now watching "Landman".

It's that season again. Where Mister Wikfred, who is genuinely dying of kidney failure, decides to go out and catch all the mice he can.

Sometimes I wonder where Jordan Reyne is; then I remember we're the same age and, well, sometimes we gotta get a day job. She lasted far longer than I did! And made some absolutely superb music on the way.

I think a lot of modern economics can be understood by the way companies who have sold loved and trusted chips / crisps for generations keep trying "NEW FLAVOURS".
We get it. But, the truth is, we like your old stuff better than your new stuff.

It's stupid bullshit like this that sees tourists think they can wander into our vast bushland without any protection from Attack Moa.
Historically, Drop Bears would hide in gardens and attack homeowners and visitors, so the ban on gardens is for good safety reasons.

I love the whole thing about "gardens being banned in New Zealand."
Because every time it reappears there's a whole bunch of people jumping on the joke, but also some who really want to stridently argue that it isn't true.
