Everything is not as it seems


The New Zealand flag was flying proudly over the Beehive this afternoon.

Blues skies. Life is good.

No poverty, no depression, the economy is on the up-and-up.

Land of plenty, full employment, literacy rates sky rocketing, long white cloud, makes me proud.

We’ve solved the oil crises, the religious crises, the environmental crises.

The lack of crises situation was such that this morning the Ministry of Crises created a couple just so they’d have something to solve before afternoon tea.

The East:West situation, the North:South situation, the Maori:Pakeha situation, the price of houses in Auckland situation, the bloody cricket situation, drugs and alcohol situation, road toll situation, muslims and the rest of us situation, 4,000 channels and nothing but crap on tv situation.

What is it about Air New Zealand safety videos? The Monday-isation of public holidays, the defoliation of pubic hairs?

Everything is as it seems in this picture.

Manifesto

17. Every day look through a new lens.
32. Every day have a laugh.
37. Every day fight for what’s worth fighting for. Pick your battles.
