Things I like about NZ

Another for the list: when some nutjob firebombs the Prime Minister's electorate office, the police probe it as a normal arson attack. No terror alert level to raise from hysteria to hyper-hysteria, no machine-gun humvees flitting around.

  1. I take the point, but you've gotta admit that machine-gun humvees are pretty damn cool.

    I'm not quite sure what word I'd use to describe the motion of that particular make of vehicle, but I'm pretty sure flitting isn't it: it makes them sound like fantails in the garden.

  2. I didn't find their omnipresence along Route 1 in Arlington particularly comforting, even if they are cool.

  3. I don't just like that. I love it.

  4. When some nutjob axed the Labour PM's office, things were a bit different, but yes, I love it also.
