Appar­ently Angel­ica Wha­le­oil was mak­ing “any­thing” cook­ies. It is school hol­i­days in Korea where my Brother Wha­le­oil lives with his pod, and this is one of the children’s activ­i­ties at the Hyatt Jeju.

In case you want to know Brother Wha­le­oil is the Gen­eral Man­ager. the pic­ture below is Angel­ica Wha­le­oil with her course tutor, one of the chefs of the hotel.

Not mad in a crazy sort of way, but mad in an angry sort of way.

Mas­ter Wha­le­oil returned from school yes­ter­day very upset at the change to our nations coinage.

He is mad because with the demise of the 5c coin he reck­ons things are going to cost more. He reck­ons he will now have to try harder at garage sales to appear poor so he can get good deals and he has enlisted his sis­ter Miss Wha­le­oil to the cause.

What cause?

Well Mas­ter Wha­le­oil has found his polit­cal voice and he says he wants to organ­ise an “angry mob” to protest these uncalled for changes. When he says “an angry mob” he even waves his fist.

The boy has promise.

Auck­land City knows no bounds. Deputy Mayor Hub­bard despite his promises has not only jacked up rates to unprece­dented lev­els but now he requires the coun­cil to col­lect the rates even faster than usual.

Bas­tards!

As one tax­payer had to say;

Indeed!

I have always said that peo­ple who com­mit sui­cide are cowards.

There are how­ever some peo­ple who are big­ger cow­ards and they are the ones who can’t even get up the gump­tion to do it them­selves and have to enlist some poor unwit­ting schmuck into their efforts to kill them­selves. They are the true cowards.

One such cow­ard is Ricky James Beck­ham who was so upset about his mis­sus telling him to take a hike he wan­dered into a gun­shop with a machete so they could kill him.

Cow­ard.

Fur­ther he is such a loser he couldn’t even man­age to kill him­self suc­cess­fully. Mind you he is really lucky to be alive as he was shot wit a .45ACP. Now they make really big holes in tar­gets and peo­ple. I mean really big holes. Half an inch across. Oh and they are pretty suc­cess­ful at putting peo­ple down with one shot.

Well, No, actually.

Since 1999 home own­er­ship rates have fallen dra­mat­i­cally, so fast in fact that plum­met might be a bet­ter description.

How fast?

In 1999 home own­er­ship rates were 74%, now the fig­ure is 44% with a 14% drop in the last year alone.

I find this astound­ing that despite a boom­ing econ­omy and increas­ing employ­ment that home own­er­ship rates have fallen.

Of course one might be con­sid­ered cyn­i­cal and pointout that ram­pant over tax­a­tion at national and local lev­els may per­haps be contributing.

So what is the gov­ern­ment solu­tion?

More bloody wel­fare of course.

Any­way with such a drop it means there are more ten­ants, and for me with 4 houses that means bet­ter choice of ten­ants. On a purely self­ish note, long may home own­er­ship plummet.

In a nation­wide per­spec­tive iot sim­ply shows that Kiwis are becom­ing poorer while the gov­ern­ment raids our purses and wal­lets in ever increas­ing amounts.

Gerry Brown­lee reck­ons Jim Ander­ton is hav­ing a lend of us to the tune of $72,585.

And I reckon he is right. 

Image 1 is an ad from the Pro­gres­sive web­site.

Image 2 is the gov­ern­ments lat­est anti P ad.

So what do you reckon?…..looks like he is hav­ing a lend of the tax­pay­ers, but then what do you expect when he is in bed with bla­tant thieves of tax­pay­ers money like the Labour Party.

For­mer Big Gay Out organ­iser Gar­reth Spillane has claimed in a Sun­day paper that he quit the National Party after less than four months partly because he was accused of being a “Labour spy”.

What the big dick fails to men­tion is his less than hon­est CV with bla­tant untruths writ­ten in it. Oh and he was a poo­dle of Michelle Boag the archi­tect of National’s demise in 2002. 

Stop whin­ing like a girly pants and get on with your life.

These are the rules to go by if threat­ened in your home or work­place by machete weild­ing morons.

Rule 1 – Use over­whelm­ing force. If the offender uses a base­ball bat you use a gun, if the offender uses a knife you use a gun, if the offender uses a machete you still use a gun, and if the offender has a gun then use a big­ger, bet­ter gun and shoot straight and first.

Rule 2 – Shoot the idiot and then shoot the ceil­ing, in that order.

Rule 3 – Make sure the offender is dead. My cousin who was once a police man said to me that this rule is very impor­tant oth­er­wise the police get to hear the offend­ers side of the story. It is very impor­tant that only one story gets told. If you don’t then you get this sort of crap.

Rule 4 – Always say you fired a warn­ing shot (see Rule 2) then use these words. “I was in fear of my life, officer” 

Rule 5 – Never change your story.

Aaron Bhatnagar’s RatesWatch web­site has hit the front page of the Her­ald today.

The Her­ald help­fully lists some of the waste that Mayor Hub­bard has presided over.

1000 to the Afghan Youth Soci­ety, despite a rec­om­men­da­tion from offi­cers the appli­ca­tion was under­de­vel­oped and should be declined.

•   A $1500 grant to the Con­golese com­mu­nity to make inter­na­tional tele­phone calls home to can­di­dates stand­ing in elections
• A $20,000 party to mark the 20th anniver­sary of homo­sex­ual law reform
• $5 mil­lion for penalty pay­ments and cost blowouts from the Queen St tree fiasco.
• $600,000 invested in a sus­tain­able hous­ing com­pany with no hope of a finan­cial return.
• $4000 to the Com­bined Ben­e­fi­cia­ries Union to update peo­ple on changes to benefits.
• $2500 to the Foun­da­tion of Spir­i­tu­al­ist Medi­ums to seek course accreditation.

Well I cer­tainly wouldn’t but if I had any immi­gra­tions woes then he would be my best bet probably.

And in the Her­ald today it is revealed that in 2002 Par­lia­men­tary Ser­vice vis­ited Mr Field’s office and required a sign to be put up stat­ing the office’s ser­vices were free. 

One won­ders how many other MP’s have had that require­ment placed on them.

Labour will find thye sit­u­a­tion unten­able as time moves on. More and more of El Jefe’s dodgy deal­ings will now come to light.
