Q) Why do Mosquitos always buzz round in circles.

The election is over and there isn't much happening down here, so obviously the media is desperate to find a story of interest.

First up we have a "romance" story, Bear Grylls style:


http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/weddings/10552495/Bear-Grylls-He-hid-the-ring-where


Second something about Miss America:

http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/beauty/beauty-news/10552769/It-seems-Miss-America-is-a-Mean-Girl

Thirdly the annual weird clothes contest:

http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/fashion/10551130/World-of-WearableArts-supreme-winner


So while the rest of the world is worried about Ebola and the Middle East erupting into all out war, Kiwis have the above splashed across their headlines. Not sure whether I should :lol: or :cry:

Haha!

The wearable art looks familiar .... I expect many of us MKs can relate to the concept of being clothed in baggage from our past. Furlough suitcases reinforced with duct tape ... I can see my Dad pulling them off the airport carousel, while we five jet-lagged children stood there open mouthed with wonder at being back in America the beautiful, our mission barrel clothing wrinkled from our two-day trip across the Pacific.

Haha. Yes, plenty of baggage hanging off this aging MK ....

You were fortunate. I got the clothes that were rejected by the mission barrel :lol: .

When I landed in New Zealand, Peter Jackson offered me a part as a street urchin in Les Miserables, until he found out I couldn't sing. Anyway I would have turned him down because I was no longer Les Miserable, cuz I was home and jolly pleased to have escaped Les Numonohidismiserables.

Just look at me now, rags to lycra with a Dr Suess top :D

I am currently painting a very long fence. Well not at this precise moment, as obviously being unable to multitask due to gender restrictions, I am tapping away at the keyboard.

The deal loosely arranged with the lovely Mrs Bemused, was that I would build the very long fence and she would attend to the painting there of. I didn't quite work out the specifics of this arrangement and now find myself spending hours, day after day, applying paint to said fence, solo.

Mrs Bemused of course made the executive and very important decision as to what colour the paint would be. This took much consternation, deliberation and consultation with another member of the same gender as the wise Mrs Bemused. Like the all important choosing of clothes, in one of those strange ritualistic retail therapy expeditions that few males can comprehend the value of.
After considerable intellectual expertise was applied to the choosing of the appropriate colour, brown was selected.
Personally I was in favour of purchasing a bucket of black paint and a bucket of white paint. Then I was going to paint a small section at one end white and the opposite end black. After completing both ends such, I was then going to mix the whole lot and paint the remainder grey and call it a tribute to my MK childhood. However it is brown as chosen by the aforementioned insightful Mrs Bemused and I am not calling the monotone masterpiece "Brown Gold", just in case anyone is wondering.

And so, the wise reader will be wondering what lessons and conclusions Bemused has drawn from his experience of painting the fence for endless hours. Not much really, just the job has to be done by someone and that someone is me, personally I'd rather be off cycling with Canine Bemused, who is snoozing in the sun, while I paint. Perhaps the conclusion is that it is for both of us a dogs life, but he is enjoying it more than I am :P .

You are a wise (and funny!) man.

And I have a lot more respect for a fence painter than a fence sitter.

I know quite a few in the latter category.
