Just for you Number One:

'Twas on Prime last night @ 6:00 in the 'who wants to be a millionaire' slot.

Oh? I stand corrected then....

I guess it will still screen in the normal time slot though (about 11 during the week) as I imagine that was a special screening? Not that it really matters

and mushy peas.

He's not supposed to be pointing out the negatives of the country...but anyway, I have a source.

I don't like americans

Americans are the most well mannered and hospitable people that most of us are likley to encounter.

That should have been included in your jokes. It's the best one!!!!

Many have no ability to say "please" when they "demand" something....

As for JK - cheesy for sure. Down to earth? Hell yeah!!!

He visited our shores recently and thanked the Personal Protection Squad guys. Something Skyriders beloved NEVER did.

Remember Speedgate....?

Their media is rated driven and as a result very little is said or shown that does not have some influence on affairs.

They in most part are more politicly informed than we are but having said that their media can be of an enormouse influence on political issues with the result that americans can turn on their political masters faster than we are likely too.

Bush would be a classic example of this where the media hyped him up but Bushes performance as a President took a sharp dive almost from day one.

They also have a highly developed sense of freedom but unfortunatley this has not always been at the forefront of their foreign policy.

Nixon one of the best foreign policy Presidents was the most reviled on the home front. Most assume this was the result of Watergate which in some respects it was but later after his downfall Nixon's role in sabotauging the Veitnam peace talks for political gain was to some extent a fore runner too Watergate. Not the thread for all this I know so will stop.

Interestingly, you could replace "Bush" with "Obama" and still be absolutely on the money...

[Patrick]

Yes I do. Go and look at my posts on this. You just might be speedprised.

Might just do that - but going from that, you were against the lying tart?. Wasn't really a dig at ya.... Just a comparison between the two... your beloved and my beloved.... He thanks the PPS, she doesn't. Just a common courtesy, but hey....

Good on you Key, great advert for NZ a 5 min campaign would have cost millions $$, nothing like free advertising to a large audience.

He didn't make a dick of himself, he would have if he went on the show with an arrogant attitude, look at me I am NZ's PM and I can't be humble. I've got a stick up my ass and can't be light hearted.

He's a likable humble bloke with good qualities and does good for our conuntry.
