I'm speechless, I'm without speech.  This is massive news, I hope the New Zealand media knows how huge this is. The greatest High School Player on the planet is coming to play for the New Zealand Breakers in the Australian NBL. He was activity recruited by Kentucky, Duke and Kansas and was expected to go to Kansas, when he annoucned he didn't want to go to college it was widely expected that he would go straight to the NBA. Instead he announced he wants to play Pro ball outside the USA, and the team that has landed this superstar is our very own the New Zealand Breakers!! Every game should be a sell out to see this young man who will achieve superstardom.  What this also does is change history, players leaving High School, who aren't interested in college, now have a option to play professional ball overseas. As a Basketball fan this has floored me, I was literally stunned and speechless. So many great things are happening with New Zealand Basketball at the moment, and ...

"What we need is a really great day, to make the most of every moment" That was the theme song to the ad's McDonald's use to run in the 1990's in New Zealand. The truth was, there weren't many great days at all at a particular store in New Zealand. Names have been changed for legal reason's, but every incident that is listed happened, it's kinda an injustice, to the people that worked there, to call what happened there incidents, it was more of a daily routine that sent the workers into a robotic type state. The city I worked in  had two Franchise owners at the time, I unfortunately worked in the store so bad t that the other owner would flat out refuse to have anything to do with the store I was in. McDonald's isn't a living entity, it doesn't have arms and legs it was allowed to do what it did, because of the social hierarchy of it's set up.   At the top You had a  Horrific senior manager that would keep the crew in line, the next lev...

Over the past few years, I have occasionally gone over to the website, "The Spinoff" and nearly every time the website has left me in a state of confusion, when normally I am in a state of denial. The website seems to read like it's coming from the old "Social Credit" party manifesto, but that isn't what confuses me, I guess the easiest way to explain is to give examples. Take the Horrific Christchurch shooting, my old home town  acted with grace and dignity and an outpouring of love and support for the victims and their community, as they should. Writers from the spinoff, wrote the same, beautiful pieces of how we should come together and support each other. But the same writers, had totally different opinions of other Terror attacks around the world, they had previously written on their own blogs and social media, that no sympathy should be given because of  a country's  foreign policy and that it was somehow racist to give thoughts to that country and...

The picture above doesn't show a Secret Society, it doesn't show people who are part of an exclusive club that has been around for 100's of years. There is not going to be a Line of Duty type investigation into these boys, there won't be a movie made into their life's, none of the people pictured are special. There is no wild antics that  they do, that will be talked about for centuries. They wont become Prime Minister. They're nothing like the Masons, the police aren't debating should they arrest them or not because who their daddies are. Yet the New Zealand Media once again get it wrong, by dramatizing their behavior and giving it a cute nickname, leading people to believe, "Wow is this like Billionaire Boys club", or that English movie which shows the Elite acting badly" Please tell us More!!!! Well quite Frankly Hamish  McNeilly of Stuff's website should be ashamed for not doing any real reporting. This group of kids, reminds me of the...

Words fail me, but I'm going to write something anyway. I kinda blame society for thinking that kids taking Selfie's is a great idea, and it breeds confidence, I actually think it breeds obnoxious. I was in a pub/restaurant not so long ago, and this group of people were there, mainly adults, ages ranged from about 65 to around 12. They were all nicely dressed, there were two kids, one a girl in her teens and a boy aged about 12, he seemed to be better dressed than the adults, he had one of those bowler hats on. Anyway, I was there with my group, there were two other groups there at the time. This kid had decided to play a rather loud game on his cell phone, loud enough that everyone else turned around to see where the noise was coming from, he for some reason, was nodding his head up and down saying "Yeah yeah" like he just achieved something really important. I looked around every so often, as other people did, and he was talking to other people at this table, but he...
