Every Tiny Straw: Knives
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2014/03/knives.html
Wednesday, 12 March 2014. Let's stop the equivocation; Judith Collins has to go . She's caught in a clear conflict of interest that hasn't been declared properly or in a timely fashion. That's totally unacceptable. What's Regular John done to piss me off this time? Where do I start? The beginning, I suppose:. He's given Mrs Collins a "final warning". Too soft, dismiss her. He's applied a different standard to himself than he has to Mrs Collins, as folllows:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Why did sh...

Every Tiny Straw: No One's Listening
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2014/05/no-ones-listening.html
Tuesday, 27 May 2014. That NIWA's supercomputer was hacked. Sounds bad. Hacked by the Chinese. Sounds, well, maybe not so bad. The Chinese hackers are reported to be working for the Chinese government. So, what that would mean is that the Chinese government is taking an interest in NZ's climate and environment. Sadly, that's more than can be said for NZ's National government. The Feelers - One World, 2006. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Leo, the sun-sign. Johnny B. Goode.

Every Tiny Straw: April 2013
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 23 April 2013. Recently it occurred to me that dumb advertising bugs me. I bought my first bottle of milk in Fonterra, the dairy farmers' collective, have been plugging recently. It was more expensive than before; I should have expected that. The advertisement is dumb. Transparent cows, hollow and half filled with milk, tryind desparately to avoid sunlight. For goodness sake, there is so much wrong with this. Triple layer light-proof milk bottles. Pointless technology introduced solely for t...

Every Tiny Straw: Walking Off A Cliff Again
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2014/04/walking-off-cliff-again.html
Wednesday, 16 April 2014. Walking Off A Cliff Again. If only we were still try to catch up with Australia. Over there they can see the need to resign over a scandal. Even the ones from the Mad Monk's Party. Meanwhile back in NZ even a sticky stinky scandal leaves our politicians pretending it wasn't them.

Chris Trotter has blamed Poto Williams for Labour’s 2014 election loss. But how did she do it, and why? Is that all there is? And it makes me wonder.

Every Tiny Straw: The Rockefeller Skank
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-rockefeller-skank.html
Monday, 28 April 2014. Kudos to Mike Hosking - I saw him at some stage last week decrying synthetic cannabinoids without a hint of conscience about his blatant shilling for the much more destructive gambling sector. There are very few people who are sufficiently self absorbed and venal to be able to do that kind of thing with a straight face. Fatboy Slim - You've Come A Long Way, Baby, 1998.

Every Tiny Straw: October 2012
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Friday, 12 October 2012. Well, maybe not Albania, but somewhere kind of vaguely like that. So, for a couple of weeks blogging at ETS will be intermittent at best, unless I can work out how this "blogging by email" thing works. I hope Telecom don't screw me with massive charges for data.

Every Tiny Straw: May 2013
http://everytinystraw.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, 3 May 2013. There's plenty of others talking about Aaron Gilmore and I'm going to add my bit. A true gentleman is one who is never unintentionally rude - Oscar Wilde. Being rude to bar staff, waiters and shop assistants is not OK. Aaron Gilmore, who has never been in the limelight for good reasons, has destroyed his career as an MP. This would be a reason for celebrating if I was sure that there were not a hundred others waiting to replace him. Verlaines - Some Disenchanted Evening, 1990. Is that...
