I like Birmingham's writings. I met his brother once at a genetics conference. :ph34r:

I was considering seeking asylum in NZ at one point. Survivalists have been gathering on the sth island for years now. Boosting property values. Bastards.

It's like a larger version of Tasmania. New Zealanders are suspicious of Australians mind you. They don't really like us. They consider us a bit uncouth. Even the Australians that have more couth than the average kiwi. (Although, there's only five of us) I think it's because someone has been spreading rumours that we prefer it when south africa wins the rugby. As if.

All the same, I like kiwis.

I like the idea of a land grab - can I bags Mt Victoria on the Auckland North shore? I'm actually descended from a long line of Norman thieves and I'd make an excellent orc.

Yeah. it's a pretty witty, funny article - a little farcical though... or is it?

I wonder what it would really take for Aus to really take over it though?
