vinyl wellington...
nice little item in the SST Sunday Mag on the Wellingtn Library's vinly collection.
In its hay day it was magnificent and provided many epiphanies when I was learning to open my ears.
Coltrane Sonny Rollins Willie Nelson.
totally transforming. later on I went and got them al on cd.
also the 40 year anniversary edition of Layla with all the out takes.
5*****
yep.
those were the days.
and two inspirational stories.
one from a pommy adventurer mining in Guayana and later in Australia interviewd on 9-noon this am and yesterday I found the quantum book in a trhift shop in Masterton.
This book is for the layman and is just as inspirational as the true life stories.
Hoffman gives Rutherford his due and even more credits him with man other discoveries that led to the invention of einstens theory of relativity and heesenbergs quantum.
great stuff.
any adults out there reading this then get to work and supply your kids with some real excitement!
btw. the old guy in my unit flew Corsairs in the Pacific.
It would be nice to give him a salute.

why I am not standing for the Carterton District Council...
because I spent 6 years at a university studying the history of economics, theory of money and banking and the history of business enterprise from go to now.
I am worth more than $14,000 a year.
dig.
plus nearly all the keyboards are still broken in the computer suite at the library and no body will fix them.

saturday morning special...
Hot night last night.
Tossed and turned.
could not but help thinking of all the nonsense from the day.
however here is something to go on with.
When is lyn prentice owner of pseudo left wing blag The STANDARD going to grow some balls instead of letting the tories walk all over him and his rag while he pretends to play fair with journalistic integrity.
blah blah bullshit.
Local body elections.
there are several issues here in my book.
I will vote for the person who says they will reverse the decsion to charge 60c a sheet for photocopying.
whoever thought they were going to pay off Cartertons $8,000,000 white elephant by tripling the price of photocopying from 20c to 60c has a screw loose.
Plus the Library itself needs a complete reorganisation.
there are now 13 people getting an income from this cash cow and the layout is an abortion.
The toy library and Plunkett need to be relocated in the old courthouse and let the library go back to its core competencies instead of this pot pourri of trying to please everyone and not actually pleasing anyone.
This means that the Library can use the Ron Wakelin wing for its admin and stackroom instead of being chopped right down the middle with an entrance way separating the office from the library itself.
Plus it needs a front door and then if anybody wants a pee they can go round instead of being "inspected" by all these unpaid volunteers who presume to want to know your business!
The tackiness in the library never ends.
The OPAC keyboard is to high for kids and too low for adults and not really fit for purpose at all.
Ryan Lochte.
Just listened to non achiever Jack Tame on Newstalk ZB trying to crucify Ryan Lochte.
It is hard to decide who is the bigger jerk.
.
Tame or Lochte.
The thing is with kiwi blowhards is that they never have to face up to the people who they pillory and they would run a mile if they had to front up.
AS for Brazil if they are still going after him then grow up.
If you haven't enough kudos from running the games then prosecuting Lochte is not going to do anything for your country at all
Lochte is just another musclebound knuckleheaded ugly American who thinks because he is good at swimming then he is good at everything.
My advice to Brazil is let it go or you are going to end up looking just as childish as he is.

big puzzle for little people...
New Zealand proves the laws of economics wrong.
When the rediscount rate goes down to 2% then the NZD is supposed to go down against the USD while the invisible hand does its stuff to restore equilibrium.
However every time in defiance against the textbooks the NZD goes up when the interest rate goes down.
Is there something here that the Reserve Bank is not telling us?

virtu...
memo to Carterton Lions Club.
do not allocate stalls in Nelson Crescent on Daffodil Day.
It will just piss off any stallholders when they are allocated a backwater that no one will visit!
and Memo Westpac Carterton.
It is not so long ago when the whizzkids in the backroom nearly sunk the WESTPAC completely.
That gang is gone now and another gang of whizzkids want to close down profitable but not profitable enough branches in the regions.
get a grip you noo noo heads.
It does nowhere use the word efficiency in the Bible.
wonk!
Virtù, for Machiavelli, was not equivalent to moral virtue, but was instead linked to the raison d'État. Indeed, what was good for the state and for the leader may be contradictory to that which is morally good in the Christian sense.

what is the good....
it seems to be merely material aquisitivieness in an age of overproduction, overconsumption and no empathy consciousness or awareness.
is it a boy scraping his toes though through thick choking dust for 12 hours a day looking for enough copper nuggets to buy his food for the day?
is it that groovy restaurant that needs the whole street dug up to remove a ton and a half fatball growing in the sewer?
what do you think?

Is New Zealand a Christian nation?
no.
it is merely a collection of venal grabbers who think the whole purpose of this world is to supply them with goods services and arse licking till everything is used up and all gone.
If John Keys thinks that Easter is old fashioned then he should abandon the whole thing altogether by act of parliament.
lets see what he is really made of.
You know olympic gold medal winners die on average 6 years younger than other competitors but here in Neww Zealand we want to rev everything up to the max till the whole place is shaking and vibrating and ultimately falls to pieces.
full of shit and worn out before its time.
thats the kiwi way!
its in our dna.
well the lumpens anyway.
This country is fulled with people who have no real idea of what they are doing.
all they know is grand finals, super rugby and new cars.
q.e.d.
yet they presume to lay down the law for the meek who do the work.
