networkn: I'm guessing it's a autocorrect, but I'd be interested to know if in fact he was hunting in France :)

I think a .300 WinMag is the right stuff to prevent a wild boar from escaping and to offer a new home in a refrigerator.

When you hear the thumping subwoofer of your 20 year old son and his mate arriving from a mile away, and as they get closer you find they're listening to Kiss - Rock'n'Roll Al Night.




Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

The mind-blowing and astounding amount of sheer musical talent that some people naturally possess. We are a magnificent species on the whole, it's just such a terrible shame about our parasitic tendencies.

People who can laugh at themselves (or me).

 

Shared laughter creates such positive emotions.

Also it's not even a real border as such - it's no more a border in use than crossing from Taupo to Hawkes Bay is!

I hate that border. I find the Taupo order control agents to be so fascist in their handling of minor border indiscretions
