determinance and extraordinary drive. Who else has shown such complete
control over their sport? Not Tiger Woods, he hasn't won many of his
tournaments....

Also it has begun to rain again, and will probably rain on and off until
summer starts next january...... I prefer the rain to the sunshine anyway.

maybe its because people are getting fatter and fatter.... stop them getting fatter and diabetes will not be as widespread- eat less and eat better.

people who have diabetes genetically must be annoyed.]]> Thu, 08 Mar 2007 04:45:00 EST http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/165603 -35.2333333 173.2166667-35.2333333173.2166667 http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/163563

What?
You could say she would stop the 'whitening' of NZ if the Maori party was in power. I think she is just crazy - they let almost anyone come and live here... Doesnt matter if you are a criminal or anything....

Perhaps they have done so and have already visited earth. Why didn't they stop to say hi?

The email 'jokes' about Steve Irwin, yet nothing but respect and nice things said about Peter Brock.

Makes me wonder who in NZ would be or was a REAL NZ Icon? Sir Ed? Colin Meads? Peter Blake? Possum? Anyone else? Any women that would be considered icons?]]> Tue, 12 Sep 2006 06:37:00 EDT http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/43169 -35.2333333 173.2166667-35.2333333173.2166667 http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/39106
Write ten words beginning with that letter in your blog, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why


Awesome -- (see David Tua on 'Wheel of Fortune')
---why? because its funny.

Othello
---why? he was one of shakespeares characters, and a board game... and the guy that played Othello in the movie was also Morpheus in the matrix, also a good name containing O, and if you have read the play, Othello was refered to as a MOOR (racist :( ), which is spooky cos it is the same as morpheus.... oooOoOoOooOooooo

dOnut
--- why? it looks like an O and sh0uld really be called an Onut.

Oh
--- why? it can be used so many ways to express so many feelings.. Oh. = i dont care. Oh = WOW!! A whole range of feelings

Oocyte
--- why? has two O's, and have heard the term "Zenopus Oocyte" too many times this year already.....

Omnipotence
--- why? it is a strange concept that can not exist
"You know, I rather like this God fellow. Very theatrical, you know. Pestilence here, a plague there. Omnipotence ... gotta get me some of that. " -- an evil baby.

Professional sportsman in possibly one of the most contactible of contact sports.

He had 'failing kidneys', was on dialysis, then was given a kidney, to be transplanted into him, by one of his friends.
Cured of his illness he went back into playing the sport he loves, where he could "possibly" injure himself and his new kidney. SOME people said he shouldnt do it and he should just be thankful he is once again healthy, calling for him to not play again.

It is his dream to play once more for his country that he loves in the sport that he loves, why should other people tell him what he can and cannot dream?.

I would personally love to see the guy again playing for the all blacks, if he was still good enough :P

but university is fun, cos there are so many peopls you woudnt get to see othawise, and all the extra things that come with being a student. the only real downfall is the study you have to do :( i am sure i can find lots of other things to do.. :(

And why when you bring the best players in the world together do they play terribly?

I can’t believe the news today
Oh, I can’t close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

’cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children’s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

I hope the All Blacks win tonight, and that it is a good game... Every time you beat australia its a good game...... Seen many Aussies walking up and down Auckland streets today... they were not very happy... :( why?

Seen all the news from the USA, about their little storm... its not very good, i always wonder why the water doesnt flow out of the city... what is holding it there? very confusing. i wonder if New Orleans will ever be the same? who knows.]]> Fri, 02 Sep 2005 23:09:00 EDT http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/29272 -35.2333333 173.2166667-35.2333333173.2166667 http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/28088 -- found this a while back now...

1 aside from that, i find if hard to believe that israel troops have been sent to forcibly remove people from their homes of 40 years... Whats the deal with that.. What caused Israel and Palistinian peoples to hate each other?

2 they can make 'skin' now, to sense pressures, light etc.. i find that fascinating.....

3 the All Blacks won on saturday... this makes me happy. ]]> Wed, 17 Aug 2005 09:19:00 EDT http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/28088 -35.2333333 173.2166667-35.2333333173.2166667 http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/26783 They could join a coalition, but what if one party gets a majority of the votes? Or has enough with a middle sized party to have a coalition between only two parties.
I personally think that having a coalition government with multiple parties is a silly idea. It just means that you don't have to vote for either labour or national but the party that you vote for just joins with parties that you didnt vote for and it just gets so confusing...... But it would be funny to see say, labour 30% of the seats, national 30% of the votes and then the 'small parties' get the rest of the seats, join in a massive coalition and get into power. Who would be the PM?
I would like to see that. ]]> Sat, 30 Jul 2005 18:02:00 EDT http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/26783 -35.2333333 173.2166667-35.2333333173.2166667 http://matt85.tigblog.org/post/26346 Billboards slagging off the other parties.
It is a despicable practice and they should concentrate on improving the country, not behaving like little children in parliment.
