Hey, kids! Captain Hero here with Getting Laid Tip 213 - The Backrub Buddy!
Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.
RIP Augie.
Never knew the man, but was a likeable/lovable character "on the box".![]()
Very Sad news , he was the only weather guru in the country which I had respect for, particulary for facing the plonkers who follow the heard in relation to climate change.

I hope he's enjoying an endless "Blue Dome" day. RIP, he was a good bugger.
Gahh! Will those pro-climate-change facists stop at nothing to subvert the truth? Which state-owned enterprise was responsible for this latest tragedy?
You were a hero, Augie Auer. New Zealand has been enriched by your knowledge of and enthusiasm for meteorology.

RIP. Liked the way he presented the weather. Without being technical you knew exactly what was going on.
The Rock had a nice tribute to him today with the tune of 'take the weather with you' by crowded house with interviews they had done with him![]()
Built for speed, not for comfort
It would have been ironic if Augie had met his demise by being struck by lightning. Even he would have seen the humour in that!

Happy winds at ye back Auld Augie, If there was one wish I could have had when BI cycling around the South Island in a fit of madness THE WRONG WAY it was this:
"I wish, that in a 20" radius, on command, the wind will provide me with a tail wind strong enough to propel me up or past, whatever obstacle is in my path"
(Normally wished for when cycling downhill in the teeth of a gale force headwind up the Lewis pass) (Dammit)
