civil society and civic pride...

came to town yesterday.
nice and quiet.
got home and turned on magic.
some of it was anyway?????
a message from the Mayor of Masterton about enjoying the town over the holidays.
so I get to town today and the guy on the tricked out pimped up hardly davison with the number plate vertical was doing laps in Queen Street and I could hear him going down Dixon Street from Queen Street.
So all this talk about civil society is just words and more bloody words.
how can it be a civil society when any meathead can buy a vehicle and take out all the muffling and drive up and down the main street with impunity?
If the Mayor of Masterton is really a mayor and knows what she is doing then she will make sure that a stop is put to this sort of behaviour.
That is what she is paid for and she should make sure that shopkeepers have an emergency number to call and the Chamber of Commerce gets of their arse and takes a stand.
Nobody slopes off to the skin bars in Wellington and comes back and commits acts in the streets so why should any old moron pretend that that they are in their own private dragstrip when they are in the urb?

anyway.
Great program on George Harrison on PrimeTV last night.
I read a scathing item recently about somebody purporting to report on Georges last days and I thought it was very poor but when I saw the doco it was not like that at all.
and I have to say that Georges song "The Inner Light" is one of my all time favourite songs ever!
how about that?
