G'morning James, 

Hey, we get the Letterman show here - Michael Campbell, our 
indigenous golfer was on the show last week after winning the US 
Open..

Dunno so much ... I sometimes find myself hankering after a good 
old-fashioned boil to nurse and care for;  my medical mum taught 
me how - just before the newfangled sulfa drugs made most of it 
redundant,  followed by the wierd bread-molds that simply killed 
them dead.

The coroner's report logged the beekeeper's speed by the height of 
the impact mark on the far face of the gulch under the bridge...
down to a decimal place or two.

Sadly, with NZ's pervading Political Corretness you'd be jailed 
for even thinking "McClaren F1", despite the fact that young 
McClaren was a true NZer of historic renown... there's only 
murderous intent to explain anybody's need to exceed 50mph in 
God's Own Country now.

Sigh !

:-)
