Found a copy of the passionless people yesterday and the bad news is nothing has changed.
Kiwis live an isolated existence sheltered in their automotive moats and nothing else counts.
hmmmm.
very sad really but you are not allowed to question it at the risk of social exclusion, artificial personality conflicts and exclusion from the group.
Now cars in New Zealand are a religion.
Great for going from A to A in and looking at the geeks and making comments about people you have never met.

Found a tape of Big Maceo yesterday. Love the blues piano. It is much easier to play along too than some guitar hero who wants to blow the rest of the world away.
Maceo had a stroke and couldnt play anymore and he died of a broken heart.
Went to town again today.
Thank heaven for the gold card.
Freedom of a sort.
THey got specials on cd's, vids, tapes and vinyl at the Masterton Family Shop.
Got one cd of Lester YOung.
double. hope its cool.
The "Prez".
He died of a broken heart too.
He got called up in 1944 and got busted for having a jazz cigarette.
When the MP went through his pioseessions and found a picture of Lestrers beautiful wife he, the MP freaked and bashed him up.
Ya get that from rednecks.
I got a vinyl too. It had I Will Follow HIm by Little Peggy March and The Three Bells by the Browns plus ***Many More.
tee hee.
Only a trickle of water left in the Waignawa and not much h20 in the water races.
very dry everywhere.
Saw Richie Macaw in Las Vegas last night on the crowd goes mild..
Hope you enjoy yourself Richie.
Whatever you do do not go to Makko Peekuu.
Try Angkor Watt.
Good Luck to the Black Caps.
Flog the brits.
apart from that not much.
There is a cool peach tree down the end of the road.
The owner begged me to take them away last year but I'll go and check with him and grab a basket tonight.
Little ones but firm and sweet.
I read the share sale of Mighty River Power is going gangbusters.
Well okay but if all the makework nonsense that JOhn Keys government has indulged in since it came to power was added up then It would come to about the same figure as the proceeds butno we have all this jiggery pokery of supoosed assets that are overbuilt, underused and just plain willfully wasteful.
Felicia Collins.
LOve the version of Rock Me you did on the teev last night.
Might have been a re-run because there was a Charlie Sheen movie on last night too but nevertheless.
You are the greatest babe!

 Rock Me Baby!!!!!
