@parliament...

 government inquiry into the 2020 elections and the two referendums.

justice committee

submissions before April 6.

hehehe...

 

the real deal...

 dont listen to the  obscurantists and the charlatans and the idiots who dont want you to know the truth about yourself or more to the point about them.

Freud invented dynamic psychiatry under the rubric of psychoanalysis and it is still the basis of all psychotherapy today and always will be.

balmy old day...

 low overcast.

no wind  or precipitation.

mild. just right.

got up late and went down town for supplies.

nothing at the sallies or vinnies and to the library. read the two minute silence and realised it was Fridays and I had missed the Jenny Henson estate sale at Saint Marks.

still I decided to walk down to the church and see if anything was left.

I go to the midweek service where Jenny used to alternate with Maggie Smith and as I recall Jenny was one of those people totally pure of heart and spirit and generous and giving.

Her passing and the manner of it was a real tragedy for her family and the community. people like her dont come along every day.

anyway I scanned the books and  came away with the Readers Digest Atlas of the Bible and The Wonder Book Of Bible Stories with 33 coloured illustrations.

I am sure we had this book when I was a kid but it really gladdened my heart. sometimes I find it hard to actually read the bible. That's why I go to church to listen to someone else tell me about it. These bible stories are easy to read and understand and make me happy and remind me of my christian duty.

I am not a bible scholar but I need to hear the truths.

Had to laugh at Victor Maimudes relating his trip to the wailing wall with Bob Dylan late at night. Nearby they call hear yelling and screaming and they found out it was orthodox Jews arguing about the meaning of the bible. hmmmmmmm.

If they haven't got it right by now then what hope is there for us when theologasters like mckriskie of Family First NZ attempt to impose their paltry view of morality on the rest of us. They are not really christians but crypto jews who would love to make rules for everyone. hmmmmmmm.

so there are still plenty of acorns on the ground at Carrington Park and the grounds of Saint Marks. so moms take your kids and get some bags full and take the kids for a walk and do a Johnny Appleseed and replant the earth.

hehehehehe.

barry soper worlds biggest whinger...

 yet another swingeing whine from barry soper in todays Wairarapa Times Age.

he tries to put a label on the PM Jacinda Ardern with no substance or justification.

he seems to have come to bleieve that the press corpse is bigger than the parliamentarians themselves and that he soper is bigger than all the rest put together.

nah. too  many sausage rolls and rubber chicken legs and free cheap plonk have done something to his mind.

his bone of contention is that the PM cannot stand up to the questioning of rabid right wing nutbar mike hoksing every monday morning and somehow she has a duty to get flogged by this idiot on a regular basis.

he also is busy busy trying to construct a  narrative, read story, casting JA as some sort of aleatory beneficiary to the nationals party bashing at the last two polls.

he has lost all credibility and any claim to objectivity going down that track.

the people of new zealand had had enough of the subtle and dangerous looting by  the national party of the governments assets and that is the end of the story.

as hosksing is employed by sopers  employer there seems to be more than a little dishonesty going on here disguised as legitimate commentary.

time for both these dinosaurs to bet out to pasture. they were captured by the nationals party years ago and their fawning and half truths are like the nats themselves. tired and worn out and not fit for purpose.
