A trend appearing here

Would YOU fly in a plane that was made in the same country as the above hen-house/dog kennel/skip?

A pain in the neck

"A 29-year-old man stabbed himself in the neck while being sentenced for possession of child pornography in the Wellington District Court today..."

Buy a better knife next time.

MSM talking bullshit as usual

Another police assisted suicide, I would say.

But as usual, the MSM are drama-queening.

"Gunman had firearms licence, despite previous incident"

Now this infers some neglect on the part of police- when you look a little closer:

"...A report that police had previously been called to the address over a firearms incident had been clarified, Mr Kane said.

"In February this year a neighbour reported shots, this was investigated and Mr Sime was found to be firing his son's bb gun at a cardboard box. No offence was established..."

No offense- no revoking of his firearms license.

Fat Bastard goes to jail


"A morbidly obese fraudster who argues he needs specialised medical treatment that can't be provided in prison has lost his bid to be freed while he awaits further court action.

Max Heslehurst, who has been reported as weighing nearly 200kg, was earlier this year found guilty on 41 counts of fraud and sentenced to three years and nine months in prison a term partly reduced because of his obesity-related health problems..."

These is a very apt saying "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime"

His lawyer said:

"...his client's condition meant he was "degraded" in the prison setting..."

Looks to me like he has thoroughly degraded himself already!

And finally- it looks like somebody has never sampled prison fare!

"...Spokesperson for Fight the Obesity Epidemic, Dr Robyn Toomath, said institutions such as Corrections needed to take steps to ensure they could effectively care for obesity sufferers, as it was a growing problem. The stigma of obesity was something that was likely to be magnified in prison..."

Why!

"One of the four family members who became multimillionaires did not attend work at a Masterton bakery as planned yesterday. Siobhan, one of the four who shot to fame after winning $36 million in Lotto's Big Wednesday draw, has taken time off from her bakery job..."

So you now have nine million dollars.

Why on earth would you want to work for around about the minimum wage in a frickin' bakery?

Ever.

It really beggers belief with me...

Oh Crap!

"Napier will become the City of Sales next month transforming itself into a bargain-hunter's paradise in a bid to lure shoppers.

Nearly 150 businesses including 83 per cent of inner-city retailers will take part in the promotion, discounting stock worth more than $9 million..."

Bugger- the wife has seen this- and we're going for a few days off early july...

A picture is worth a thousand words


Hat Tip: Cowboy Blob

New toy

Amended:

This is the actual model I have- my quick search yesterday turned up the older classic model!

Being careful with wording

Dead pedophille- best kind!

No names, no pack drill...

Unreal Money

I wish the winners of the $36 million lottery well. (Of course I would rather the winner was ME)

They are in for interesting times now that they have gone public. Every leech, louse and loser will be putting their hand out- be it to beg or help themselves.

That is going to be a big learning curve for them.

They presented as level-headed types and should weather the storm, though.

Now if I had won- I have a cunning plan involving a double life...

About bloody time

"Prison guards are to receive body armour, batons, pepper spray and communication classes to help them deal with the "most difficult and dangerous people", Corrections Minister Judith Collins says..."

Can the communication classes and spend the money on some Remington 870's.

Add a fewhundred Tasers to the police order too.

Hospital Security

Things have change since my last hospital stay. Back then you could wander about at will (in my case as well as you could with a blown-out lung)

No more.

Doors are magnetically locked and you have to be passed through by the staff. Which is bloody annoying (for the staff too!) as when staying with a child, we had to go in and out for food and drink.

The worst part was waiting on the other side of a door while my son screamed the house down on the other side (he was getting IV medication and didn't like it) I can tell you it was a real effort of will not to kick that goddammed door down!

But I don't blame the hospital or the staff- not at all.

They have to run the place like a prison because of the low-down theiving varmints that will steal anything not welded to the floor!

In my book, scum that would steal from a hospital are in dire need of a fatal beating. I have heard, on good authority, that they willl steal the bedding while their own kids are in there recieving treatment!

If they aren't stealing, they are using the hospital as a drop-in center while visiting another inbreed no doubt in with self-inflicted problems. My wife tells stories from a past stay, of visitors being kicked out for sitting around the bed drinking, smoking and generally being pond-dwelling arseholes.

I hear the in Auckland, the problem is several orders of magnitude worse!

Next time you are inconvienienced on a visit by the security- don't blame the hospital.

Blame the scum we feed at our expense through welfare...

Thank You

To everybody at Masterton Hospital- especially Wairarapa Ambulance, A&E and the HDU.

My little boy has a way to go, but is out of danger now.

Thanks to you all I still have my son.


It's been a VERY bad day and I will be blogging lite for a whiles...

Update:

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and wishes.

We brought him home today- still groggy and uncoordinated from large doses of Phenobarbital, but getting better by the hour.

I have fitted a video camera in his room to quietly keep an eye on him for a bit. Its been seven years since the last seizure and if its another seven it will be too soon!

It was a real fright watching him doing Cheyne-Stokes respiration- one of those situations where a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

Classic Kiwiana

The Thermette

You can buy them here or at the above link if you are in the USA

Finally - decent TV when I want it!

I just got MySKY on.

Now I can record all the stuff actually worth watching. (Stuff on Discovery, National Geographic or the History channel)

Interesting talking to the guy doing the install. They are doing installs as fast as they can get the sets- about 90,000 so far.

So we are in recession...

The scary washing machine story

The scary washing machine story here

The $5000 scary washing machine...

Very silly, but very amusing!

The REAL Swine Flu worry

I think the real worry is that the small pecentage of people who actually do things that people need will take a few days off at the same time!

Those people who deliver the food to the shops, keep electricity, water and sewage flowing and generally make everything most take for granted work. Those who deliver goods and services that are actually NEEDED as opposed to those WANTED.

I don't think many know how thin a margin we run on in normal circumstances!

A bug is going to be no fun with no power, water and a blocked up dunny...

About time too!

"The Government has decided to introduce a new Defence Force medal for non-operational military service.

Defence Minister Wayne Mapp said today the Returned Services Association had proposed the medal for several years.

"Fulfilling this commitment will enable New Zealanders who have served to receive recognition similar to that of Australia," he said..."

Now it remains to set the eligibility criteria.

Don't forget those who 'just did a couple of years'- more than two years should be the qualifier in my book.

Stupid people and money will soon be parted

There is an old saying that it is hard to scam an honest man.

Never was this more so than here.

They were mostly here ilegally and got taken for a ride big time.

Sympathy- it's in the dictionary between 'shit' and 'syphylis'...
