…celebrating NZ Governmentzillas near perfect run of personal detail f**k ups…
…if they hadn’t mishandled all that info’ so badly it could have been a nice little earner…
…coulda cleared the national debt in no time.
(…for those of you who aren’t from around here…the building loosely represented on the right of the card is the “Beehive”…an above surface 70s concrete bunker where the governmentzilla hatches his evil plans for this-part-of-the-world domination…)
…well…in a series of scam postcards…
… a vague association could be construed between this “scheme” and the current goings on with “our” lamb exports to China…
…coincidentally topical, I assure you.
… I suggested yesterday that money making “schemes” for the digitally challenged could be achieved thru the postal system…
… and as it is important to start any money making venture with a full stomach, we’ll lead out with this general plea for sustenance assistance…
…I’m sure this will be tantamount to holding a telethon for my stomach.
…got me a nicely made,retro (70s?), Dept’ of Education blackboard at the tip shop a several weeks back…
…coupla coats of blackboard paint and…
…finally affixed it to the kitchen wall on Monday…
…easier to draw on, affixed, than when it’s balanced, precariously, on the bread bin…
…mission accomplished…
…somewhere to write shopping lists or to catch ideas for cartoons as they come out of the nearby radio…
…like so…
…pretty sure I didn’t mishear him, but this was at 6.00am and I’m pretty much running on instinct at that time of the morning…
…instinct and only one cup of coffee.
…oh woe is me…
…the desperation involved with running a small biz in these uncertain economic times…
…what I need is a “fool-proof” way to generate a living income…
…without having to up-skill or sell-ass…
…something like those marvellous e-mails I get from Nigeria…
..but not involving I.T. ability…
…I have neat hand writing…
…postcards…scam postcards…
…yes, with a little fine tuning, that might just work.
…what if our Governments had to compete in televised talent competitions…
…competitions in which they were judged on their personalities and ability to perform the tasks involved in their desired profession…
..and while they will be chosen to compete by their professional peers, the final decision on who wins would be decided by we, the people…
…oh…
…that’s right…
…we already have something similar and it’s probably been copyrighted…
…it’s called a democratic election.
…here at Boredinarecordshop we do not advocate disposing of your recently used nappies, adult or otherwise in this manner…
…that is what landfill is for.
…Hollywood was moaning that using our scenery, expertise and actors for their moving picture shows was costing waaaay too much …
…and the dear old NZ Govrenment was handing out tax breaks, workers-rights breaks and the like in ever increasing handfuls…
… that, as unpalatable as it all seemed at the time, there is a simple phonetic reason for the outcome…
…and that, boys and girls, is why the film industry wasn’t taken away from us.
…if my government was a giant Japanese Monster Movie Monster he’d need a healthy diet…
…and as a Japanese Monster Movie Monster he could claim “scientific” whalers as part of his customary diet.
… in New Zealand we have a voting system with a catchy acronym…
…it means that smaller parties with “fringe” policies can get into parliament and bring some of their mates with them…
…(to call them hippies or nazis or both would not be true… in rare cases)…
…or something like that…
…I finally figured out what it stands for…
…in the next election, cross out the word “vote” and write in the word “shoot” on your ballot paper…
…for those of you who aren’t from around here…google “Aaron Gilmore”.
