the cunning linguists of new zealand...

Great day on Sunday.
The weather came out right and the crowds flocked.
Hope all the stallholders did all right..
JNXS were performing at the Rotunda in Carrington Park and the vocalist has the sweetest set of pipes and JOhnny Rowe can make that axe talk.

New Zealand.
I get annoyed with people who say we are just a young country.
Just because economic historians call NZ an area of recent settlement does not mean we are a young country.
New Zealand has been in existence since the English Parliament formally granted the NZ government executive power in 1856.Not 1852 as some shallow scholars opine.
I had to laugh at one scholar in Saturdays Dompost who opined that Maori myths and legends were connected to the natural world when in reality they were invented by george grey, william pember reeves et al  to supply the national lie.
They had all read Plato's Republic and thought they were up to the job in this young country.
haw haw haw
all they did was open the door for a million half assed idiots to pontificate on something they know nothing about.
i.e. they all think their very own thoughts are facts.
There are not many countries that have been in existence as long as New Zealand.
If you don't believe me then google it dumbos.
Then you will find out exactly how many countries have been in existence since then.
i.e.
CIS
Germany
etc.
People who intone the above supplication are really only trying to justify their own lack of learning and scholarship by trying to hide under a dodgy saying.
typical kiwi dissembling.
fallacy of sayings dude.

Sad to hear that the music industry in NZ has virtually given up on prosecuting thieves who try and excuse their stealing by calling it downloading.
It might be but it is still stealing just the same.
I have over 20,000 songs on my laptop but I would never give them away to someone on the web.
Every artist deserves their fee.
which leads me to the cunning linguists who also hide under a rubric of language is always changing.
Thats right but in the past it came from the top down as Latin moved to the vernacular and spread out exponentially.
It wasn't invented by lazy little shits who cant be bothered learning to spell but know how to operate computers and steal anything they can get their hands on off the web just because they can..
Most cunning linguists are academics who have also given in and now pander to kids instead of instructing them.

Joan Baez.
Lovely interview on Sunday morning with willis chipmunk.
you are absolutely right.
the 60's were an explosion of talent that is well nigh impossible to replicate.
I mean how many teenagers read lorca, kerouac, dylan thomas and know how to play the guitar.
not many.
their haircut is the thing.
Back in the 60's in Wellington you had wharves filled with tramp steamers, freezing works, wool stores, 600 vessel shipping fleets at anchor in the harbour,. Peripatetic Wrestlers at the Regent and Shearers at the Duke.
Now its all dweebs trying to be Hipsters whatever the fuck that means, trying to be creative and thinking that pipestove trousers are going to do the trick..
wow.
Also a large contingent of ringbolters and shipjumpers who spiced up the local criminal fraternity and who all went by nicknames.
"the 500"
Killer Murphy.
He never won a fight but he made more money than all of them
you work that out.
hahaha
The Angry Ant.
He wanted to fight but he couldnt.
They all gone now of course.
time and attrition and the justice industry.
The only angry ant left is Mathew Hooton.
9-n00n RNZ MOndays
An anal retentive who knows the power of compound interest and thinks he thunk it all up himself.
i.e. it was innate.
nup.
just rigid toilet training and a good school.
hahahahahahahahahaha.
Now according to the Dompost the whole world is at the mercy of landlords.
Well their time will come.

Andrew Little.
You cant make anything grow by poisoning it.
You have to feed it.
It might make you FEEL good walking around with your squirter dealing death at your whim but pretty squalid.
When I worked as a groundsman at Parliament buildings we never sprayed anything and the lawn was and still  is  the best one in the whole country!

Great to see the Australian Senate beginning an investigation of the torrent of rules flwoing out of the parliament to regulate our behaviour.
Whip over to Kiwi and o something about the auckland /city council charging inner city schools to use the parks.
the whole country has gone mad in this pettifogging grasping assault on everybody and anybody they can for a few bucks.
