i hate racist fundiementalists who try and argue that jesus wasn't jewish... or laugh at them... then hate them - it's a complex relationship
I hate that even though you folks got a pretty black man, NZ has elected a centre-right government

having someone with eminant qualifications in the top job is probably better for the world than a guy who fails to understand the reality of the current economic situation and a woman who not only thought Africa was a country, but also did not know that the US was part of the NAFTA. I think the world was saved from a very real catastrophe."She is not a professional politician so she was eaten alive"
to be vice president you should be competent. Russia, China, Iran- they will not pull punches. you should be qualified to do the fucking job, not wining that Katie Couric was to hard on you.
I fit makes you feel any better it looks like NZ is going to swing right, we could swap countries and i can join all the rest of you flower children under a wonderful liberal government full of fluffy kittens... that reminds me - a puppy in the white house! it's cuddle government!
Woooo Hooo! you vote-y folks got it right for once and didn't ruin it for us unimportant folks in the rest of the world! yay!
Thanks Tom. I grant you hugs. But i don't know if anyone nuts could come up with the kind of genius shelvings system that has size-coding based on in-mouth-fittage. And the real world is lies. Plato worked that out over 200 years ago. hence no moon.mailbox is probly art.
oooooh Secret history. i was just talking about that while drinking last night, and realised how much i like that book. i don't suppose he'd like Virgina Woolf? and i am a girly man. with a beard. i have been called the gayest straight man to ever live (an overstatement though).And susan howe is amazing. She may not be what you're expecting, bunny, but she's great.
<ost of my favorite poets are women, but then again i read poetry, which acording to some people makes me either a girl or homosexual.
Thanks Marie, NZ is pretty cool... or at least just pretty. There's amazing stuff going on with the reinvigoration of Te Reo Maori, but some school teachers, like the ones i had back in the day, seem resentful of having to recognise it as a 'real' language. And re:"To see the reading and writing practices!!!
oh joy, oh joy, oh joy!!!"
i'm not sure quite what you mean, but i'm a writer (poetry mostly - feel fre to ridicule)and everything is so fucking insular... i dunno, maybe other places are the same, but univertites here are insular and seem to be intelectually isolated. However i don't really know what the rest of the world is like, so there's no relativity in my judgements. sigh. angst. et cetera.
ONe only has to look at what "english only" policies have done to indigenous comunities the world over... I for one wish that i'd been tought Maori at school (down here in little old New Zealand... it's that coffee stain in the corner of your world map)
I speak predominantly english myself, but i totaly agree with Marie - forcing ones own monoligualism on a bunch of kids out of some wierd desperation to monopolise power seems to me to be unethical behaviour. Language and cultura go hand in hand, and any forced supresion of that is bound to have negative consiquences. you don't need to enforce an "english only" policy were there isn't one in order to teach, in fact if teachers allow the use of multiple languages it is, i think, likley to be benificial. the teacher may learn somthing herself.
That stuff is awesome... people who write things like "drink's for only $3" tend to piss me off, but on the whole when people write stupid things i find it exiting..... there may be something seriously wrong with me.check out p 11 & 12 of this pdf for fucked up writing... "manic typo mutherfucker":
