New Zealand votes soon on a new flag!


Trip report with a modern connection

I visited New Zealand many years ago (1969), and back then the Kiwis (New Zealanders) were still upset that people in the U.S. and Canada thought Graham Kerr, "The Galloping Gourmet," was Australian.

Now, they want a flag that isn't confused with Australia's!


Very funny :

Must be another reason other than Grahm Kerr


I took down my Rebel flag (which you can't buy on e-bay any more) and peeled the NRA sticker off the front door.
I disconnected my home alarm system and quit the candy-ass Neighborhood Watch.
I bought two Pakistani flags and put one at each corner of the front yard. Then I purchased the black flag of ISIS (which you can still buy on e-bay) and put it in the center of the yard.
Now, the local police, sheriff, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, Secret Service and other agencies are all watching my house 24/7.
I've never felt safer and I'm saving $69.95 a month.
