What a week! Culminating in a massive work deadline that I meet with minutes to spare. Thanks to a bit of help. Or was I helping them? I tend to shoulder a fairly big chunk of the anvil, and I did improve on my delegation skills ever so slightly. I take that as a good thing. Indeed, I could judge myself harshly for what I failed to do, but instead, being Friday and having the work done one way or another, I'm calling it "damn good".
So, how was your week? Do you relegate and delegate? Been snowed under or managing on cruise control?
Looks like Helen is busy. A lot of big talk and even more finger pointing. I said to a colleague that that kind of slagging off on the future Prime Minister, Mr Key was down right disrespectful, and no way for an ex-Prime Minister to talk. To my surprise he agreed. "I'm voting National he declared". And that was a big thing.
Oh Helen, you should listen to John. He said "One day instant karma's gonna getcha"
Comments Are Open! Say summthin.

Oh, and how's the new blog design working for you folks?
ReplyDeleteEvening all. Just got back in from 95 minutes of palming off ACT Party policy in The Palms. For the uneducated Wellingtonians that means dropping ACT propaganda into letter boxes in "The Palms" subdivision on the North Shore. I told party secretary Nick Kearney that I would happily donate my shoe leather to ACT but my beloved Gnats would get my vote.
ReplyDeleteIn 1972 I was Vice President of the Balga branch of the Liberal Party of Western Australia. I think we had abo9ut twenty members. Anyway, I jogged off 7 kg stuffing Liberal Party leaflets into letter boxes and we got our man (Ian Viner) into the seat of Stirling which had been a Labor strong hold for some forty years. Unfortunately Gough Whitlam scragged our dickhead federal leader Billy Big Ears McMahon.
I was under instructions to put Rodneys 20 point plan into e=very letter box, including those marked 'no junk mail' or 'no circulars.'
Nick advised me to respond to any objectors "It's not junk mail, it's important information about the election." As I was walking , I anticipated some knuckle dragging twenty stone neanderthal yelling at me "Hey you bastard, can't you read? No fucking junk mail!
I thoght I might responf with "Sorry mate, I'm illiterate. I've got NCEA."
That's the trouble with walking. You get too much time to think. A bloody hot bath when I got home was pretty good though.
Summthin.
ReplyDeleteStill not liking the new blog design.
Adolf... When I had an office in Albany we used to call the palms poohpond vista.. Stinky on saturday mornings like you would not believe.
Mum Dad and all the kids at home on the shore flushing like crazy...
Ooh and you must have pissed somebody off to be given a hilly block like that to spruik on.
1972? I was in Singapore.
ReplyDeleteGood job on the political activism. I'm about to engage in some kilo gaining activity. The dinner bell has chimed. Back soon.
Thanks Adolf. And there's plenty more where that came from!
ReplyDeleteNice to join you guys on a Friday night. Where's the Beer?
ck advised me to respond to any objectors "It's not junk mail, it's important information about the election."
ReplyDeleteShowing themselves to be every bit as arrogant as they claim Labour are.
My no Junk sign means that, and ACT crap, even with its hilarious misspellings and outrageous mangling of the language, is JUNK!
Not a Winston Peters NO then Fugley?
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody know who fugley is?
ReplyDeletezen, I hear this claim time and again from politicos that their leaf;lets are somehow not junk, but important information, If we allow them that excuse, then why not The warehouse and Countdown too?
ReplyDeleteD4J, I know who fugley is - and I thouight you did too, or was the claim of police action yet another of your lies that gets you banned from blog after blog?
fugley - you are evil that will be stopped in due time?
ReplyDeleteI am offering a reward for fugley's identity.
Kind regards
Peter Burns
I see junk mail as free fuel
ReplyDeleteMaybe that works for you Oswald, but its no good in my heat pump.
ReplyDeleteHowever, if I could just bottle d4j's rantings ...
Hey there, Fuckley. For your information, many many people have been in their front yards and have said "Hey, thanks very much for this."
ReplyDeleteI suggest that you fugly off and drown your sorrows in the embalming fluids which will be the only libations available for your mates on the eve of November 8th.
Oh, I agree with you Fugley. I was just joshing.
ReplyDeleteJunk mail to me means "mail not specifically addressed to the people living at that address", and I think that sign should be respected. I can see how some people would interpret junk mail though as solely in the product advertising category.
Things like community notices, council notices, electioneering pamphlets, notices concerning local events and requests for charity may not have a name pegged to it, but they are all part of getting information out to the community of general interest.
I took my junk mail sign down, just so I'd get all these extra goodies. Don't want to miss out on my ACT brochure, or another EB leaflet for that matter.
ReplyDeleteThey all burn- some after you read them, some instead of reading them.
ReplyDeleteI'll be off to watch the second Bourne movie, may come back when I am well soused.
ReplyDeleteGoodnight D4J, kiss the girls and make them cry... oh hang on, already did that, that's why you're in trouble with the law all the time.
I see the Greens are taking heat for their urgings to get parents down to family planning so they can make the right decision and off any CO2 generators.
ReplyDeleteEven their quick press release saying they do but they don't is bad.
The point was of course, that they decided to release a population policy in the first place. Step 1, define the problem. Step 2, initiate the solution.
It eventually progresses to a "final solution"
Goodnight fugley. My friends had another good laugh at your expense. Level 9 spin doctors doing overtime tonight. Poor Labour.
ReplyDeleteZen, what are you talking about with that Green press release? Sounds, um, er, barmy.
ReplyDeleteHi Gooner
ReplyDeleteThe Greens released a "population policy" today.
It implied they wanted one child per family due to the eco-problems humans cause.
They got some stick for that, and have back-pedaled and now say they simply meant it is every parents right to choose if they want an abortion, and they are only suggesting parents go down to the family planning clinic to plan their abortions as a sensible option, providing of course, that is what the parents want to do.
Well, the responsible parents of course.
Although "parents" in this context sounds as honest as "family planning" when it is founded on the idea that people should plan not to have a family.
At a very simple level, the Greens don't see the problem in their desire to even publish a population policy in tghe first place.
Good god Zen. They are completely nuts. Utterly and completely.
ReplyDeleteSo they want to ban food, showers and now people. What next? Why don't we ban the Green Party from registering at the next election.
Heh, looks like you were reading my blog while I read yours ZEN.
ReplyDeleteby my count, your prediction of 100 links in 24 hrs didn't quite come true.
3 days later, I think I've got 4.
"So, how was your week?"
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't all that great, but then a kind blogger told me about this the other day.
Knowing that good citizens and cops taking out trash is at an all time high has put me on a high.
And knowing that leftists will be grieving over this and will feel most sour because of it is an added bonus.
So much for the V part of the RWC.
ReplyDeleteAnd the nights puns:
'I have a split personality' said Tom being Frank.
I need to cut my fingernails before they get too out of hand.
I used to be a tap dancer until I fell in the sink.
If a lawyer can be disbarred, can a musician be denoted, or a model deposed?
If we don't conserve water we could go from one ex-stream to another.
If you don't pay your exorcist you get repossessed.
If you get a fruit basket from your psychiatrist it will probably be shrink-wrapped.
If you get sick at the airport it could be a terminal illness.
If you give some managers an inch they think they're a ruler.
If you play around with a guillotine, you'll beheaded for an accident.
If you're looking for oranges on an apple tree you will have a fruitless search.
In democracy its your vote that counts. In feudalism its your count that votes.
In middle east outdoor markets you can find bazaar items for sale.
In order to talk to a Viking you need to know Norse code.
It was an emotional wedding. Even the cake was in tiers.
It wasn't school John disliked it was just the principal of it.
It's better to love a short girl than not a tall.
Evening all.
ReplyDeleteHi MK.
Self Defense. If you don't do it, who will?
D4J asked
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody know who fugley is?
and fugley said
D4J, I know who fugley is - and I thouight you did too, or was the claim of police action yet another of your lies that gets you banned from blog after blog?
Well I know who fugley is. It aint that hard to figure out.
But I'm not about to claim the reward.
And to all the sane folks who come here
a very good evening to you all.
All I have to say about Election pamphlets is they scratch your bum when put to the only useful purpose they could conceivably serve.
Is the art of paper dart throwing lost to all but a few?
ReplyDeleteGreetings from hamilton
ReplyDeleteI'm eith the ex-outlaws, if you know what i mean.
Lovely dinner of raw fish salad, mussles with garted cheese and herbs with lasagne to follow.
So did Ian wishart deliver the goods.
Seems a decent tale to date, but no names yet.
A knockout blow?

I haven't seen the actual article yet, but the bits I've heard about an immigration scandal sound like something that can be denied, 'investigated' and shelved until after the election.
ReplyDeleteWhatever he has has to not only be factual, but appealing to the MSM to run with, and they don't always do that.
So, I guess we will see.
Evening all. Looks like our cobber Wishart has stepped up to the parapet and started shooting. The counter barrage should be fun.
ReplyDeleteYes the Greens are mad. Bat-shit crazy in fact. What do you expect from a group that has co-leaders; one of whom allegedly grows salad vegetables in her own turd? They should be provided with their own litter boxes just outside the debating chamber. Sustainable government and all that...If they want any info on one-child families I suggest they contact the Chinese and the Singaporean authorities. It has all gone horribly wrong there with an excess of young males on the mainland and a yuppy class thats not breeding much except careers on the island.
The Greens core problem is fear. Fear of the future, fear of the present, fear of every damn thing. No wonder Sue Bradford found them ripe for a takeover putsch. They were too timid to resist.
Perhaps its time to support mandatory labeling on all policy documents identifying the source ideology?
ReplyDeleteCustomers (voters) might want to know that the policy they are thinking of buying with their vote came directly from Marx.

A quote from that article.
The FBI says a homicide committed by a private citizen is justified when a person is slain during the commission of a felony, such as a burglary or robbery.
And how this works in NZ.
I hear a noise outside my house.
I investigate, and see someone interfering with my car.
I shoot that person dead.
According to MK, I am a hero.
According to the NZ Police, I just murdered one of their undercover cops. Its nice to know MK will fund my defence.
Fugley, you obviously don't understand the concept of self defence. Stay indoors.
ReplyDeleteBTW, your example implies that the crime squad should have great interest in you for some reason.
ReplyDeleteThe crime you speak of, some criminal drug dealers ran outside and chased the guy down the road and shot him in cold blood. If the cop and his partner were armed, then it would have been another justifiable case of 'taking out the trash' - proven beyond a shadow of a doubt because the cop WAS KILLED.
I've yet to see a concept mentioned that Fugley does understand.
ReplyDeleteIn 1972 I was a foetus.
ReplyDeleteThe Green term for that Madeleine is called "disposable".
