OCR down 50 bps. Only about 12 months too late from the guy who called the recession over in December 2008. Worst RB Governor I can recall.

I’m in Wellington this weekend. If anyone’s keen for a drink on Saturday, email me on wataki at gmail.

The negative karma for Ryan’s 9.14 is pretty sad isn’t it? If you don’t want to meet the guy for a drink, just don’t email him!

Bollard is an idiot – he keeps costing me money on iPredict.

Would be happy to have a drink with you Ryan but sadly I live nowhere near Wellington, maybe one day.

I guess the power company’s must be now in a total panic, what with the all lakes full and over following. What excuse will they dream up to raise power prices this winter, boy what a dilemma for them, their number one excuse gone.

British pollies are hassling Top Gear (and other shows) – they may be forced to have a woman and an ethnic presenter.

Their economy is in tatters and all they can think about is quotas at the BBC.

Bizarre, gazzmaniac, given that the Stig is a black lesbian with artificial legs.

Heh I guess they could just say that and get away with it! Nobody could prove otherwise…

Speaking of Top Gear, Richard Hammond spammed me this morning!

Did anyone hear WhaleOil get slagged by one of “The Panel” on NatRad yesterday afternoon. Russell Brown got a bouquet and they teetered on Kiwiblog.

Piss poor accounting laws, wall street criminals, regulators that looked the other way. No, blame single mothers.

In their defence, Colonel, I failed to provide references for my claim.

Did anyone else notice Shane Jones’ “audition” during the General Debate yesterday?

no to the Shane Jones bit but I was hugely entertained during Cullen’s Valedictory to watch ‘Cunners’ sitting behind him ‘hamming’ it up for the TV cameras with all manner of facial contortions quite reminiscent of an out of control puppet.

Just whose pulling his chain?
