G'morning Tony,

 MM> Stands for "Just Another F....

 TF> OK.... Point taken!! :-)

 TF> I'm VERY confused though. We have had a John Banks in Govt and
 TF> also works as a talkback host on Radio Pacific. He gets out of
 TF> Govt and is now the Mayor of Awkland.

Until recently, he was a mainstay in the beehive-based world of 
health foods,  but got panned...

 TF> We have Pam Corkery who was in talkback on Radio Pacific who
 TF> gets INTO Govt and then gets out again.

Ah, the abrasive media moll...

 TF> Are all these JAFAs as confused as I am?

Worst than you and I,  matey ... they both have this death-dance 
destiny in the public eye.

 TF> I have nothing against Aucklanders per se and some I count as
 TF> friends.

Certainly true here - even though in the mass they're 
undesireable...

 TF> Also we could solve the current power crisis by putting a big
 TF> umbrella over the biggest source of hot air there and
 TF> converting to energy the output from the Beehive.

Don't think so - their hot air output is about as fearsome and 
effective as their general, ethical, moral and political 
leadership ... tiddley-squat to the negative power of a very 
largish number.

 TF> Just why have we got 120 MPs in a Country of
 TF> only 4 Million people?

Sommat to do with Mickey Mouse Politics, indicative non-binding 
referunda and allowing the political parties unfettered access to 
the legislature.   The 4 million people aren't allowed to change 
the parties' new freedoms,  and ought to revolt (being NZ) in 
about 40 years time.
