Rant

The NZ Herald has a story showing online at the moment - regarding a likely class-action suit against SkyCity Casinos. Apparently New Zealanders are continuing to go the way of Americans - too stupid to take responsibility for their own actions. Why can we not ask for help if we have a problem? Why is it someone else's fault that we lose money through gambling? Why does it follow that suddenly we should profit from it? I guess it means they really are sick. They are gambling that SkyCity will settle out-of-court? Why can't they get off their back-sides and show a bit of Kiwi spirit instead?

Now that that's off my chest, I'd like to point out that there are four weeks left in KL. It will be good to move on. Incidentally, the papers here are reporting a pepper-spray attack on Dr Mahathir. Except that if you actually read the story, the spray was not even directed at him. What's wrong with getting your facts right first?
