"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...

Modern Family writer's may want to take a look at Ricky Gervais's  After Life on how to write for younger actors. Pictured is the wonderful  Tommy Finnegan who played George, the nephew of  Gervais's Tony Johnson. Tommy played George, like a normal seven year kid, quite shy, the kid was a cheerful kid who had to deal with a bully. There was a natural acting ability from Tommy in his portrayal of George and that came from the writing and directing. The same can't be said from the last few seasons of Modern Family. Modern family's first few seasons were up there with the very best of  Television,  MASH Seinfeld and The Office. The last three season though are more on the level of Mrs  Brown's Boys and the worse of Everybody Loves Raymond. One of the reason why Modern Family is struggling  now is the writing for and the directing of child actor,  Jeremy Maguire who plays Joe. The actor  thru no fault off his own comes off as a Child actor and no...

This is how you  react to a Terrorist attack, you show love and kindness. You love one and another. You show compassion, even though the attack may be on a group your not familiar  with or have nothing to do with, you show people that we're all  one race the human race. It just fills my heart what my old home town is doing, and once again it's standing up to a horrific terrible event. Since 9/11 the reaction hasn't always been like this, From New York to Bali, to London to Paris,  to Norway to Switzerland,   Al qaeda to ISIS, from Right wing  racist skinhead scum to  Religious extremists,  when there's been a horrible attack, people's reaction to those attacks haven't always been the best. From Islamophobic comments to the "What about Iraq"  comments. From "Why are you giving sympathy to these people with all the wars they have caused" comments,   to "Hey you showed sympathy to them why not this attack" comments" From people wh...

I have a huge problem with Social Media videos, like the one that Erina Wehi posted, you just don't get the full story.  You get a horrific allegation against another party without the full story or even proof of those allegations. You then get people on  twitter and facebook, destorying a person's life.  They get  abuse, they get death threats, they get  their whole life judge by a 90  second video, that may of been heavily edited. I watched today's video, and while I firmly believe this type of racism  and ugliness is firmly entrenced in New Zealand's socity, I beleieve we aren't getting the whole picture of the video posted today I haven't link to the video, because I dont want it to get more hits, a quick google search of Erina Wehi and you will come to it. In the video she sits calmly in her car,  and retells an incident when she alleges this man cut her off and screamed out all sort of repugnant racial abuse. She then tells the viewer, that ...

Lets make one thing clear,  Mark Taylor denounce his New Zealand citizenship, when he went to Syria and fought for Terrorist group, ISIS. He is a supporter of slaverly, a supporter of Rape, a supporter of child abuse, a supporter of murder and a supporter of terrorist incidents around the world. The crimes he wouldve commited with his time with ISIS will be plenty, he deserves no sympathy at all. How anyone can be not only supporting a campaign  to bring him home, but wanting the Government to pay for it, is beyond belief. If PM Ardern  signs off on this, then she will be a one term Prime Minister. In the past few days, I have read Bloggers and Journalists and members of the public, try to down play his sickening crimes. They've been trying to paint him as just a  good time Kiwi joker who got confused. Well make one thing clear. He didnt just have one two many beers at a pub and on a dare went to Syria to fight for Isis. He didnt just read a brochure  that said ...

This is what television has become. When a disingenuous hack can get his own so called documentary there is no hope for our culture. I have no doubt the Trump Tape exists, and I have no doubt that Tom Arnold couldn't care less about them and doesn't have any of them, or have even heard one of them. But that hasn't stopped the most self serving Z grade wannabe celeb in getting his own documentary, I always use to think that Andy Kindler was the biggest moron in Hollywood, but we have a new winner!!! So what is the Trump tapes all about, well it appears to be about interviewing people who have known Trump who have said, Trump has said some disgusting things, (I have no doubt that he did)  but once again he provides zero evidence, that is because Tom Arnold has no evidence. So he makes a big song and dance about providing interviews that we have all seen and heard before,  the interviews being, Howard Stern  archive of Trump interviews. That's it!!! If you have ever been o...

Tom Arnold called me a Douche Bag on Twitter, then a massive 200 of his supporters, liked his tweet. What did I do to deserve being called a Douche Bag, I had done a tweet, and said "People like Tom Arnold, Claude Taylor and Louise Mensch don't help the cause. I firmly believe that.  Tom's TV show which he has called "Hunt for the trump tapes"  is self serving,  he has no tapes, he has no connections, but he is getting people's hopes up, that he will take Trump down. It's like Claude Taylor asking for donations so he can build more billboards, or Louise Mensch, who daily tweets out that arrests are coming,  Trump kids maybe? This type of behavior  doesn't help the cause.  Yet people will follow them on twitter, people will watch Tom's show in the false hope they're taking down Trump. Instead we should all be supporting young people like Emma Gonzalez and trying to get out the young vote, the people on the street who are door knocking, the actu...

It flopped at the boxoffice because... It stars, one of the most unlikable, narcissistic, smug, self righteous, up themselves, obnoxious, untalented pieces of shit, poster child of white privileged, poster child for every pretty boy that has ever lived, unworthy, put together by Hollywood, rubbish actor that has ever lived, I of course am talking about the guy from Baby Driver. It also starts that that predator Kevin Spacey. Hollywood may try and blame Kevin Spacey for the fact that it only made $126 dollars and only 13 people saw the actual movie, but that's a cop out,  it was Ansel Elgort fault why the movie failed. He is the ultimate pretty boy, and no I have nothing against good looking actors, but there is a difference between a good looking actor and a pretty boy, and that difference is , talent and charisma. Ansel Elgort has none.  But Hollywood is banking all Ansel has to do is smiling sweetly, say a cool one liner, and it will be box office gold,  people may of ...

Mike Hosking is Satan. That has to be it. He is the worst person on earth. He dare to suggest that Pre School teachers shouldn't be on the same pay rate as High School teachers. All Hell broke lose, the abuse he took on twitter and other forms of social media was so rabid, the name calling, the hate, the usual comments directed at  his car, his house, how much money he is reported to have, the cheering each other on as post after post, told us what a vile little man he is, he must have short guy syndrome, he's worst than Napoleon. His original video he did, is now being trolled big time, thanks to a blogger at the spin off, the same blogger who thru the years has signed petition after petition to get him fired. The irony of it is, this blogger has a mantra of being against  unsolicited comments, they also have a habit of trying to pick a fight with those in the public eye, hoping their supporters will go to the social media site of their victim, to get a reaction from a  ...

On Garth's Studio G today, he got political. He mentioned  March for our Lives and had a special message for Emma Gonzalez, he told her not to listen to the haters, and gave her a special message, he sang a verse from a song he hadn't recorded before and told her... To matter then, it must matter now. A wonderful message to a wonderful young lady.

Meet 2018's version of Brendan Telfer, her name is Dana Johannsen, she used to be nzherald's main sports reporter she is now with Fairfax's  stuff's  website. If you would like to compare her to any other Journo, Brendan Telfer would be the one, like Brendan Telfer she has a history of lying about certain sports, and totally ignoring others. Bredan Telfer was the Journo who loved to tell the NZ public that Netball was this global sport. He loved to mock League calling the league world cup worthless, while cheering on any world cup victory in Netball, he would state Rugby is huge, league is nothing, yet wouldn't make the true comparison  with Netball and Basketball. Today stuff's, Dana Johannsen did this piece on how Netball which has long been the number one sport for girls is under threat from other sports, Rugby in particular, but she mentioned other sports as well are challenging Netball in New Zealand for girls. Yet, she didnt mention the main threat and tha...

Emma Gonzalez is a hero.  She didnt decide to hide in her shell, after the horrific shooting. She has now decided to take on the most powerful people and organizations in the world. Fox News,  NRA and President Trump, she will ripped apart by the  conservative media, their will be hateful messages posted about her on social media, she will even receive death threats. But she will stand tall while adults will do  nothing, she will lead change, she will inspire millions, in the hope that Assault weapons will be no more. Adults have a choice, we are either with this teenage hero, or against her. If enough are with her, change will happen. Will it happen? Time will tell.

Isn't it time that the biggest name in country music History, Garth Brooks, made a stand by making a speech, and I don't mean saying a nice soundbite on The Ellen Show, but actually give a speech that is hard hitting, takes no prisoners, and challenges, other male artists, writers, singers, record label guys and those in the industry to take a zero tolerance policy on any BS that happens to females in the industry. Thru the decades hes known as a nice guy that supports women's issues, but now its time to get serious and take it one step further and talk of things that may be difficult to discuss. Hell its not just women's issues its everyone's issues.

The New Zealand Prime Minister has created History by becoming the first woman in History to become pregnant. She's having a baby!!! I'm guessing  shes the first, because of the headlines from the NewZealand media, which have been.... "Today anything is Possible" "An inspiration for generations to come" "A Historical day in Global History" This has to be the greatest feat in the History of the world, I cannot beleive how understated the NZ media has bee with this. I guess Keith Locke and John Minto are so right, our media is still just so so pro John Key. We must bow down and acknowledge this perfect woman, the first ever to be with child.
