Fat bastard needs a caption. The winner for the best caption will receive a prize (yet to be announced) worth US$25.

Well done, Brant!

This is one of the truly great stories to appear in the news since al Qaeda became a household name. As most of you know I consider the 'moderate' Muslim complicit in the Jihad for their disgusting silence on the matter. 21-year-old Rukhsana Kausar is not only free of that charge, she goes down as a hero in the war against terror.

In case there's anyone who still thinks Ahmadinejad was misquoted when he called for Israel to be wiped from the map, this Reuters report assures us of his true feelings.

On the eve of the All Blacks' worst ever result in the Tri-Nations, I was at once cheered and made melancholic by this video that a friend recommended I watch.

What a match!! Four set tie-breakers and 30 games in the final set!! Fed blasted 50 aces!!!!

SOLO NZ Press Release: In NZ it’s the Witches Who Do the Drowning

13 June, 2009

“It comes as an enormous relief that after 17 hours deliberation the jury has finally returned five guilty verdicts for the fatal Maori exorcism of Janet Moses. I was beginning to wonder if witchdoctory was a legitimate defense in New Zealand,” worries SOLO-NZ Coordinator Glenn Jameson.

Conservative MEP Daniel Hannan's blistering attack on a 'devalued PM of a devalued government':

"You sound like a Breshnez era apparachick giving the party line..."

This just in from The NZ Herald's entertainment section: France is trying to evict the pseudo-religion on the grounds of fraud. While the whole movement is almost certainly a hoax I can't see they've done anything wrong.

Kasper found this amusing. I think we'll all get a giggle out of it too.

Great news that Atlas climbed to #1 in its category on Amazon, and now Wikirank has just posted an illustrative diagram s

SOLO-NZ Press Release: Tax Cuts Welcomed, But Don’t Stop There

April 1, 2009

After flagging a possible backtrack on its April 1 tax cuts, it’s pleasing to see National has ignored pressure from the tax-spanking Labour-Nannies and followed through on its promise to return some of our hard-earned money, says SOLO-NZ Coordinator Glenn Jameson.

The University of Michigan Students of Objectivism are organising a global rally on Facebook: Edison Hour.

SOLO-NZ Press Release: Applauding the Government for Cutting Road Safety Funding March 19, 2009 National’s plan to slash tens of millions off the road safety funding is a good thing, especially if it lowers the ghastly Nanny-nagging on our nightly TV viewing, says SOLO-NZ Coordinator Glenn Jameson.
