Sick Burn

December 3rd, 2009

Absurdities abound, the first of which was the appointment of people like Dr Brash and Mr Caygill who, along with their soulmate, Act Party seat-warmer Roger Douglas, are not just yesterday’s men but last century’s men.

When even Garth George calls you “last century”, you’re clearly doing something VERY wrong.

DonateNZ – The “Who”, “How” and “Why”

September 14th, 2009

Claire is a friend of mine who, along with her family, has put almost everything into getting DonateNZ off the ground. DonateNZ is a charity that runs a website that connects people with something to donate and needy organisations who can make use of that something.

Her latest blog post is an explanation of what they’ve gone through to get it where it is today, and what they struggle with. Well worth a read, and a great cause to support.
