I don't like halloween!
We spend 364 days of the year teaching our kids to BEWARE strangers bearing sweets and on one day they are allowed out to SEEK strangers with sweeties.
How FUBAR is that!
The other bit that gets sand in my crotch is encouraging kids to BEG! To demand that which is unearned. That REALLY pisses me off! As somebody who believes that kicking beggers should be raised to an olympic sport, there is no way my kids are going to be allowed out to scrounge pogey bait!
Kids are natural opportunists and will jump onto any excuse to get sugar- I don't blame them for getting into the halloween bullshit. I blame spineless parents who won't say NO!
And that prick Tindall!

Fighting global warming
What else could I do, but buy a heat pump!
Now I are protected from global warming- and premature warming of my Gin & Tonic.
Carry on!

Random musings
Whilst watching a doco on volcanos on Sky, I couldn't help wondering about gas emissions.
Given that they put out far more gas and ash than mankinds puny efforts- we should be looking to the volcano when considering climate change.
Obviously, the volcano gods need appeasing.
Can anyone think of suitable groups of drones that can be flung into the nearest crater? I know I can!
After all- it can't hurt to have a dollar each way!
Hurt anyone that matters, that is...

Another reason to consider emigrating
Big sister is watching YOU
As we all knew Loonie Sue's Bill has saved zero lives from scumbag parents but is causing grief for normal parents.
"...She was told that her child, referred to as "X" in the testimony, had shown aggressive behaviour towards another student and when questioned told a teacher there had been a smacking.
Under new policy, teachers were required to report all smacking incidents to CYF..."
Now liarbour has recruited their toadies- the schoolteachers- as the CYFS Secret Police.
Would that a few punches were thown over that act as it went through parliment!

Pahiatua Playground- a blast from the past!
You don't see this stuff in the typical playground of today. But in Pahiatua the clock is in the wind-up period!Another great feature is that the park is in the center of town, between the north & south lanes- It's totally open and has nowhere to hide & get up to mischief!
The bottom image is a swing built like a battering ram. Just the thing to give the nervous ninnies and wet blankets apolexy!
Take the kiddies there before nanny's baleful eye turns this way...

Is it me or...
Or are our workplaces riddled with the terminally useless?
It seems to be that about one in eight suffers from delusions of adequacy.
I have spent the last two weeks doing damage control after a wannabe started monkeying with equipment he was supposedly a frickin' expert on. In the real world, it turns out he doesn't know shit from clay. Attempt to teach him the difference have all failed. Not only have I found it impossible to teach him to differentiate the two, but I can't stop him trying to use taste...
Over the years I have seen a procession of these knuckle-draggers pass through and holding qualifications does not excuse one from this list. Quite the contrary- the worst of them have an impressive looking CV- they just can't pick up a screwdriver without sticking it through their hand. They never seem to go short of a job, either.
When will managers learn to actually talk to past employers?

They don't make then like this anymore- roundabouts, big swings, high slides.This is the same slide I played on 40 years back. My boys enjoyed it just as much.

Reeducation- why bother?
Why bother trying to rehabilitate perverts?
"A controversial rehab programme that recommends jailed paedophiles quell their sexual impulses by imagining being gang-raped by skinheads will continue to be used..."
Link:
Hell- that would just excite half of them!
These disgusting subhuman slime simply need to be executed at first opportunity. A person who molests a child has no, repeat, no reason to live.
As we live in enlightened times, a quick death with bullet,noose or chemicals instead of the foulest torments that can be devised- which is no more or less than they deserve.
Like this peice of vulture shit who raped tortured and slowly killed a 13 year-old girl.
The fucker is stealing our oxygen and this needs to stop...

Feckin' wannabees
I have heard talk about the wannabee 'Freedom Fighters' training out in the sticks.
That's about all they are- wannabees with a bad attitude, a chip on BOTH shoulders and a few elderly rifles and petrol bombs.
The trouble is, these wannabees are how terrorist organisations start out. All they need is funding- and the money is out there- while the oil holds out. The only need to recruit a few capable and competent hotheads and people start dying.
Get some nutter, fill him up with P, give him a rifle or a few sticks of gelly and sic him on whitey!
Filling suicide bombers up with meth is nothing new- it's been going on since WW2. As an aside, many of the atrocities may have been meth-fueled. It was commonly used to keep soldiers awake.
And from those who should know better, you get comments like:
"Meanwhile, Maori Pa rty co-leader Pita Sharples said the raids had destroyed trust and set race relations back a hundred years.
He said raids in strong Tuhoe parts of Bay of Plenty reminded him of the atrocities committed at Parihaka, and of the pursuit of Te Kooti Rikirangi.
"This action has violated the trust that has been developing between Maori and Pakeha and sets our race relations back a hundred years," he said..."

We were right!
A while back, I agreed with Cactus Kate on the matter of swimming in public pools.
We decided it wasn't a good idea for those not into urolagnia
I did the pool water treatment qualification course today.

Another damp squib
After a very long wait for the local election result, it was a rotten damp sqib- as I thought it would be.
The only challenge to the mayor's job was by a chap who was overseas until just before the elections- thus nobody knew what he was about.
The usual popularity contest for a seat around the table seemed to be determined by who had the purdyest pictures plastered about. At least for one of the local ones it worked. Her blurb in the handout made no mention of any local efforts. My reliable sources tell me that is because she had none. A university educated type who is a waitress in a cafe. Hmmmm.
So the hope of a hard-charging firepiss mayor who drives out some of the inbreeds and muppets from the council offices is gone for this term!
But really- a council for a whole 6-7 thousand people? What a WOFTAM!

Local election results
Are nowhere to be seen.
Pathetic when you consider there are only a couple of thousand voters.
Perhaps SWDC has misplaced their abbacus.
Or they are a lazy, incompetent bunch of mindless jerks who need to be the first up against the wall when the day comes.
Or nobody other than myself bothered to vote.
It could be all of the above...

Making a position clearer
I has been said my posts are becoming too moderate.
I, however- have not!
I have assumed that my regular readers know my feelings on certain matters. An example being what the thieving swine responsible for taking our EARNINGS by force should get!
Personally, I would like to ramset them to a fetid dungeon wall (read sewer) and douse their bodies with boiling cheese fondue, prior to releasing a couple of hundred starving rats into their cell.
Although Iain Banks came up with a dozy too!
In this one, the offender was placed in a watertight cell. Above, a feast was being enjoyed and guess where the toilets emptied!
What a fitting fate for those who have leeched a living and produced nothing but a lot of verbal diarrhoea!

STOP THIEF!
THIEVING BASTARDS!
They love to bang on about the money supposedly rorted by the sale of NZ Rail, but that pales into insignificance compared to $8,700,000,000.
And we have a country full of morons who allow this to happen by voting for these thieves!
Election bribes to follow:
"Hey Lurleen- we dun gonna get more welfar!"

Back to real heroism!
The whole sorry tale is here:
A three-year old tries to save her younger siblings "...As the man went for the girl's siblings, she tried to protect them, throwing her small self between her father and their smaller bodies..."
Now the thought of one of my children having to do such a thing makes me physically sick!
In my book, that's heroic- and at the same time sickening- that a child should have to do such a thing.
Also, on the subject- the subhuman piece of refuse who could turn on his family needs to be put down at first opportunity. Such scum are worse that rabid dogs and just as dangerous!

Cry me a frickin' river!
"...Smith said a tearful Kahui was now aware he could spend a long time in jail.
"He is getting a very firm grip on the situation. He was quite tearful when I spoke to him. He does not want to spend the next seven months in solitary confinement..."
Link:
So finally shit-for-brains has realised where he is going to spend a large part of his worthless life, if found guilty- and it looks like he will.
And hes blubbing about spending the next seven months in solitary. AWWWWW!
That would be to do with the THREE breaches of parole?
If you go down, you will be looking at about 34 YEARS.
So now you know what happens when you drop a beer crate on a baby's head...

Big deal, so what!
I do wish the sheep would whip up as much enthusiasm tackling for the way freedom of speech is being minimised, as they do for bloody rugby!
I wish they would howl with outrage at our ridiculous levels of taxation.
I wish that, just occasionaly, they would riot in the streets over government policy.
And they can get away from the tribalist angst anytime soon! As those of us with lives did two beers after the whistle.
Perhaps less energy could be put into the pre-match primate threat-display and more into learning the bloody rules!
Move along- nothing to see here!

Just let us defend ourselves, if you aren't up to it!
"Police are being accused of double standards after it emerged yesterday they are required to do less training with firearms than hunters.
Police national operations manager Superintendent Tony McLeod said police firearm training consists of nine days in camp, plus 24 hours "maintenance" practice each year.
"Police were "not generally" trained to shoot at moving targets, McLeod said.
The president of the Sporting Shooters Association, Dr Lech Beltowski, said the training was insufficient.
"You can't, in nine days and 24 hours every year, teach people what takes years of experience and repetitive target shooting to achieve."
Members of pistol clubs were required by police to shoot 12 times a year or they faced losing their B class (target shooting pistol) endorsement, Beltowski said.
"For us to stay reasonably accurate we really have to shoot at least once a month ... There's a bit of a double standard here, I think..."
Link:
First, I want to clear up a point in this article- the reason pistol shooters need to attend 12 shoots per year is to demonstrate and prove a bona fide interest in the sport of pistol shooting.
Police training, not unlike military, is more about firearms drills and procedures than in accuracy. In these aspects, their training is good. Having mastered safe firarms handling, they need to move forward to action shooting, which includes moving target.
If they could take a dose of humble pie, their local pistol club could provide much valuable instruction in this area. We would be more than happy to help- for a small fee and a pile of free 9mm!
The only ones better instructors are a bit occupied at the moment, the SAS being a bit busy right now.

Soft-cocks need not apply here
I read this and thought of an episode from years ago.
In my army days, grenade throwing was voluntary, as it was considered high-risk.
Of course we all looked forward to grenade day! Fuck the danger!
I well remember on day on the way to the range, the OC stood up on the bus and gave the official party line about this activity being voluntary.
He then continued with the non-PC bit that anyone who didn't want to play with high-explosive and steel WAS FREE TO FUCK OFF IMMEDIATLY ON OUR RETURN, AS HE DIDN'T WANT ANY LIMP-DICk SOLDIERS IN HIS COMPANY!
There were no takers, even the girls who, strictly speaking, were not meant to take part!

Heroism
"...A two-year-old girl has died and her parents have suffered severe burns trying to rescue her from a house fire in Australia.
Emergency crews were called to the house in King Street, Swan Hill, 340km north-west of Melbourne, shortly before 9.30pm on Monday, police said.
The dead girl's brother, four, escaped injury but her parents were burned trying to rescue the little girl from the flames.
Her father, 28, suffered burns to 25 per cent of his body - chiefly his hands, feet and back - while her mother, 25, suffered burns to 60 per cent of her body, Rural Ambulance Service spokesman John Mullen said..."

The word is often misused, especially by the media who seem to have never opened a dictionary or thesaurus.
But that is Heroism in my book.
