two lovely ladies.
Judith Durham ex the Seekers. she had a wonderful voice and I have just had her on the turntable going constantly to get the words and the key and the tune to Morningtown Ride. G. cool song for kiddies.
and cool for cats. standard geofrey walker. figure that one out dudes.
Anne Wislon Schaef. perhaps the most important womens (and mens) writer of last century and this one as well. and not only women. she made a major advance in addiction studies but nobody wants to know these days. they just want to make it up for themselves abd save addicits by involving them in co-dependent behaviour. exactly what Schaef told everybody how to avoid. that is the NEW ZEALAND way mate. Obfuscation and obscurantism all the way. dont worry about the truth. we need the job and with a bit of luck and FUNDING  we get a van thrown in!
DIG!
anyway Schaef's major breakthrough was in explaining lying to oneself and the complex delusions that follow from infancy into adult life and self centredness. the self centred person has no self and that is why they are constantly trying to fix it before it moves somewhere else and it always does!
She does  have no boxes to tick nor pre drawn conclusions. she outlines the problem and then leaves it up to the reader. In other words you have to do it yourself which is in exact contradistinction to the new zealand way where they want to beat it into you.
Politics.
Phil Goff is going nowhere till he stands for something.
It is no good waiting around in molesworth st for your turn.
I know he does stand for something but nobody else does.
Dig!
don Nicolson from federated farmers. I read his column and so does evderybody else but it  looks very much like he has been representing the act party to federated farmers rather than representing federated farmers to the government.
this fits in with recent columns in the herald outling how journalists priviligesand access have been curtailed in parliament but lobbyists have free reign to go wherever they like.
somehow fair is becoming foul and foul is becoming fair.
and the white night is talking abckwards.
and the red queens off her head.
feed your head.
