something old something new

all around the mountain and it was so cold.
couldn't hear nuthin but the cartwheels roll.
hmmmmm.
cold and wet today.
winter has started and summer never even began.
old  European annals even before the anglo saxon chronicles have only one entry: rain all year.
well it could happen here no doubt.
the news everywhere isnt great.
politics in the USA has polarised and the future is cloudy.
no doubt they have strategic policies but they have no direct bearing on the domestic scene.
there is no middle ground.
murder in New Zealand claimed ok because of cultural and religious grounds.
I hope the Judge asks what those are.
Are there any cultures and religions that allow murder for personal problems?
everybody these days is claiming special exemption from everything.
and if you disagree or take the piss then they feel entitled to killya.
and nobody ever takes the time to find out if these claims are true or just bushwa.
It wuz the drugggzzz that made me do it your honour.
Just like everybody swallowed Derek Freemans rantings without them ever being subjected to peer review.
They have been now but the press here still trots freemans paranoid crap as true.
they never talk about him being arrested for sawing off penises from pacific idols in the museum in Hawaii!
Was going to listen to krump and hyde on Radio New Zealand last night but couldnt be bothered.
If krump wants to use the radio and his position to proselytise then whipty doo.
Radio New Zealand should know that they will never make a silk purse out of that sows ear.
anyway I purchased a brand new secondhand copy of the wealth of nations recently from the thrift shop and already some of Adam Smiths notions are suspect. his anthropological speculations are only that and framed then so he can adduce the rest of his theory on the base of false assumptions.
and there are no natural laws of anything.
only observed regularities.
and human behaviour is more plastic and malleable than Smith or Hyde could ever predict or use as the basis of economic justification for anything.
only for rationalising the standing over the poor by the rich.
and.
New Zealand parliament about to dock the pay of parliamentarians.
I always thought parliamentarians were elected to represent the people. Now it seems that elections are like some widescreen interview for a job.
blerrrrkkkkkkkk.
