Given we guest bloggers were bought back to help provide content when Mr Farrar was on holiday, has anyone noticed a reduction in his blogging frequency?

Given the University of Auckland “will not tolerate cheating” and that plagiarism is explicitly listed on their website as the main type of cheating, what action will it take in relation to a staff member who has admitted not acknowledging a number of passages in a new book?

Was Thierry Henry’s blatant handball even worse than Diego Maradona’s infamous ‘Hand of God’?

What do Sir Bob Jones and Hon Rodney Hide talk about when they meet at night in Jones’ office on Waring Taylor Street?

Is Shoaib Akhtar the first cricketer ever to miss cricket series’ because of genital warts and liposuction?

How can Will Ferrell, the man who bought us the genius of “More Cowbell”, now be (deservedly) ranked Hollywood’s most over-paid star?

Todd McLay’s members’ bill about Easter Trading Hours should sort this issue out once and for all, right?

Have you really invented a new chant about Rory Fallon being big and bad and better than his dad when you’ve just changed the name in the chant the Barmy Army have been singing at Stuart Broad for two years?

Has Tau Henare really bought a scooter or is Craig Foss fomenting his own happy mischief?

If Australia needs a cricket coach, why wouldn’t we?

How long can Roarprawn possibly hold to her pledge not to blog about Ngai Tahu politics?

Will the Libertarianz ever take Oswald’s advice to ‘softly, softly catchy monkey’?

    Re Thierry Henry – if FIFA had any integrity, it would ban Henry from the World Cup for bringing football into disrepute. Then I remembered that Henry is actually a FIFA Ambassador!

    The Beautiful Game has been sullied by Henry’s blatant cheating, including his admission that he told the referee that he had handled the ball. It seems that FIFA was highly motivated to have France in SA 2010, whatever it took.

    Well he’s only outnumbered your posts by about 25:1, maybe he got frustrated with the lack of posts and is now popping egyptian stay-awake pills to stay awake to both sightsee and blog.

    Hells bells Red, that’s a good set of reasoned points and no abuse whatsoever. Why don’t you write good stuff like that on Kiwiblog?

    I mostly agree with your prognosis as it relates to the Libertarianz Party, although some of the points are really against the smaller set of Objectivists.
