‘A section of Papamoa Beach has been cleared after a two-metre shark came within metres of people fishing on the shoreline.
…It came within 10 metres of the shore, where 20 people were fishing, police said.
The section of the beach has now been cleared and people have been urged to stay away from the area.’ NZ People’s Daily Herald
And everybody was tewibly fwitened! For crying out loud–a shark cruising just beyond the break is reason to clear the effing beach??? Since when? Most people who regularly fish beaches know that a shark cruising the shallows is often an indicator of fish in the area and they either take no notice of the bitey or they rig up a big bait and heavy trace to target it. When did it become police business? Are people now so fucking useless they can’t be trusted to deal with a perfectly ordinary example of nature doing what nature does? (and I’d love to know when was the last time a shark left the water and came up on to the beach to grab somebody)

Open house
get in now and avoid the last-minute Christmas rush! The Wabbit household does that by ignoring the whole thing, where possible, and shunning the places holidaymakers tend to screw up for the next month or so.

The latest Woodpile Report is up

NZ Herald:
‘More schools get upgraded for broadband
Officials have named another 150 schools that will get a Government subsidy towards ultra-fast broadband.
About 700 schools have already received Government-subsidised network upgrades.
Education Minister Hekia Parata said most schools had registered an interest in the subsidy, and new criteria for selection gave greater priority to those where fibre connection was definitely going ahead.
The revised criteria also placed greater emphasis on schools with high numbers of Maori, Pasifika and special needs students…’
Firstly, when did Pacific Islanders become “Pasifika”? What fucking sandal-wearing bearded pc asshole invented that term?
Second, there’s no such thing as a “government subsidy”–its a TAXPAYER-FUNDED SUBSIDY.
Teachers are busy churning out indoctrinated, uninformed “graduates” who can’t put a sentence together, who can barely express themselves yet they turn up to job interviews at the age of eighteen with a glossy CV as thick as a telephone book.Their teachers have failed to do what they’re paid to do and for the life of me, I can’t see how where teachers, books and pencil and paper failed, a fast internet connection will succeed.
Then again, no doubt teachers will have a ball teleconferencing and printing out items which interest them…….

The ideal Christmas present
for wabbits. Fit some rod holders and and an icebox, it’ll be ideal for beach fishing trips. (You listening, Gecko?)
modestly priced, too.
