Saw this from Mickey Kaus about Huckabees supposed weightless from diet and exercise when his circumstances match gastric bypass.

But the interesting bit was that hovering over the links shows thumbnails of page you would go to that are readable – how do they do that category for 2008

It is quite easy to set your settings to do that, whether on a blog or any other web page. DPF doesn’t seem to have his set this way, but my blog. does. You just put your cursor over the link and up comes the preview. 😉

WordPress is not as flexible with the page set up as blogspot. But wordpress is still absolutely FANTASTIC.

You will like our latest post 😛

David F can we all promote our blogs here, or is it just a James Beep privilege ?

[DPF: Linking to a relevant post is okay. James should desist just posting links to his blog – I have a link to it from my front page]

James Sleep, whose unfettered comments appear here, does not follow the same policy in his new blog. He censors and removes comments at will.

Of course it’s his blog and he can do as he pleases, but at least he should have the decency of stating his censorship policy.

Did I say decency? Clearly a word that does not exist in Labour myrmidon’s dictionary.

Shameful behaviour, although to be expected from this young socialist.

Hi Manolo, I’m one of the three bloggers on NewZBlog and we hate censorship as much as you. Like all blogs we receive our share of negative/trolling/down right abusive posts. The vast majority stay but on occasion I have removed a few which were so horrible they wouldn’t even be allowed onto Kiwiblog.

One story over the Xmas break that I was particularly keen on was the great news that Kiwi’s aircraft engineers are about to be offered huge money for short term contracts with Qantas.

The added bonus (along with their reported $80,000) is that these men will be helping to smash the communist controlled unions in Aussie.

Someone mentioned building a sandpit before. Seems there’s some confusion – the sandpit isn’t here. Please go throw your toys at one another elsewhere and leave the adults in peace.

andymoore – well done and congratulations (though linking to the SST loons worries me a little). If the “powers that be” try and shut it down, be sure to alert the blogosphere. I’d wager you’d have plenty of support.

I second Rex’s call.

James and d4j: Why don’t you go to James’ blog, and have your little conversation there? Because honestly, chaps, nobody really likes reading the constant inane tirades from you both. Do it on your own blog. Then, if on the off-chance that anybody actually WANTS to read your conversation, they’ll know where to go, and kiwiblog readers won’t have to put up with it.

d4j, I think your heart’s in the right place, but for Christ’s sake. How old are you? 50? You’re arguing with a 15 year old boy! Grow up a bit, old bean!

James, go get yourself a girlfriend. You should have far better things to do at your age than winding people up on the interweb.

[DPF: I think IP speaks for many with his comments. Chill out guys or do it elsewhere]

James, go get yourself a girlfriend. You should have far better things to do at your age than winding people up on the interweb.

His heart may be in the wrong place but I greatly admire his taste in interests. Your comment is as stupid as a Christian who is completely oblivious and unconcerned about getting to know who you are telling you that you’re a sinner who should be repenting to God because that’s far better than what you’re doing with your life now.

Are you saying you’re seriously so blind to the fact that that dad4justice is solely responsible for hijacking every single discussion with comments such as:

Here come the tag team of liarbour filthy liars, sleepy tiger, doh brain sub standard sicko lunkhead’s, that are gutter snipes ! Great to see that they are bagging some poor bloke at trade me opinion . I wish these dimwits would stay on trade me, as they are an insult to the English language because they are moronic suckhole snakes .

Like a mangy dog, he simply wanders in, pisses on everything in sight, and wanders out again. Then he comes back for more.

At least Cadmus and Sonic knew when to quit when their trolling got owned. dad4justice just doesn’t know how to STFU.

Thanks Rex. Any input much appreciated – see the “who says” page if you’d like to show your support (and get a link!!!)

SST isn’t a bunch of loons, I respect Garth and – as far as I know, agree with their mission. Tougher sentencing is the way forward – not restricting the freedom of the masses.

John , you should keep up more with the news.
Key took his family to hawaii about mid year and is often overseas on “private” business

remember this..
Mr Key’s home was burgled on July 7, when Mr Key and his family were in Hawaii.

A spokesman for Mr Key said jewellery and watches were taken.

Rumour has it Key was at one of his many homes (Omaha beach) “for Xmas .”
in 2006 the NZH siad
New National Party leader and multi-millionaire John Key and fashion designer Trelise Cooper both have beachfront properties at Omaha, Key’s on the aptly named Success Court
but in 2007 they siad the same thing
Trelise Cooper’s “neighbours” in Omaha include Team New Zealand skipper Dean Barker, National Party leader John Key

But I seem to remember he had it on the market last year, but maybe he has just bought a bigger one.

Whats the bet he and his family are ‘out of the country’ for January

andymoore (@11.18) I haven’t said anything since my earlier comment, which you (@12.10) rightly interpreted as totally supportive of your site.

As for the SST I don’t like their knee-jerk reaction that equates longer sentences for any and all offenders with effective justice an rehabilitation. It’s a bit like the “one size fits all” solutions to other things: some welfare recipients are dole bludgers, therefore all welfare recipients deserve to be treated as beneath contempt.

Longer sentences are in order for many offenders. Whereas no jail time at all (with alternate sentencing seeing them repair the damage they’ve done to the community) would be better for some.

But the biggest problem I have with the SST is that a percentage of the people they want to send away for even longer are – given our ludicrous and inept “justice” system – entirely innocent.
