Most folk have their head in the sand when it comes to Global Warming. Sorry guys, Some of you are a bigger problem than the actual problem itself. |
Unless and until as a greater populace, we all take responsibility to remove the politicians that are ignoring the ever increasing problem of the destruction of the planet, then our children and our children’s children and their children, until no one can survive and their are no more children, unless we do something, it will happen.
No more children ever.
Think about it. It has already happened in your life time and the destruction will be at crisis point before you die, unless we all do something.
Do something, even it is just to start thinking that the problem is real and we must do something is a start.
Talk about it, get others to talk about it, just do something.
Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
To not do anything is to be part of the destruction of the planet.

Heres one from Darryl Wynne |
Helen Clark was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings.
The teacher asked the Ms Clark if he would like to lead the discussion on the word "tragedy".
So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a "tragedy".
One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field & a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would
be a "tragedy."
No," said Helen "that would be an accident."
A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying fifty children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explained Helen "that's what we would call great loss."
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Helen searched the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an
example of a tragedy?"
Finally, at the back of the room, a small boy raised his hand...
In a quiet voice he said: "If A plane carrying you and Mr Clark was struck by a "friendly fire" missile & blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy."
"Fantastic!" exclaimed Helen. "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be tragedy?"
"Well," says the boy "it has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be a great loss and it probably wouldn't be a fucking accident either!"

Quick Joke........ |
A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem.
The Doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the doctor a better idea about her hearing loss. "Here's what you do," said the doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response."
That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens." Then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?" No response.
So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?" Still no response.
Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?" Again he gets no response.
So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away. "Honey, what's for dinner?" Again there is no response.
So he walks right up behind her. "Honey, what's for dinner?" "Ralph, for the FIFTH time - CHICKEN!"

Cop this for Brilliant Engineering |
There are no computer graphics or digital tricks in the film.
Everything you see really happened in real time exactly as you see it.
The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually very
minor, didn't work. They would then have to set the whole thing up
again. The crew spent weeks shooting night and day. By the time it was
over, they were ready to change professions. The film cost six million
dollars and took three months to complete including full engineering of
the sequence.
In addition, it's two minutes long so every time Honda airs the film on
British television, they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of
us in clover for a lifetime.
However, it is fast becoming the most downloaded advertisement in
Internet history
Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in "free
viewings" (Honda isn't paying a dime to have you watch this
commercial!).
When the ad was pitched to senior executives, they signed off on ti
immediately without any hesitation - including the costs. There are
Six and only six hand-made Honda Accords in the world. To the horror of
Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two of them to make the
film. Everything you see in the film (aside from the walls, floor, ramp,
and complete Honda Accord) is parts from those two cars. The voice-over
is Garrison Keillor. When the ad was shown to Honda executives, they
liked it and commented on how amazing computer graphics have gotten.
They fell off their chairs when they found out it was for real.
Oh. and about those funky windshield wipers. On the new Accords, the
windshield wipers have water sensors and are designed to start doing
their thing automatically as soon as they become wet. It looks a bit
weird in the commercial.

WHY YOU GET CROOK ON BEER |
The number one reason is that you are drinking a beer made from an accelerated brewing process.
This is a practice carried out by the major breweries to make a brew in about ten days as opposed to the 30 days used by Craft Brewers and also Guinness.
How they do it is they use copious quantities of liquid sugar.
That’s why some people have big fat guts, shocking red noses, capillaries, jowls and die young. While other serious drinkers who drink naturally brewed beers are skinny and look healthy.
Doctors tell us that liquid sugar in bulk brewed beers is the main cause of hangovers which more specifically is dehydration in our systems and this not only leads to our feeling parched and having headaches, it also shrivels up our kidneys like walnuts, turns our liver into boot leather and it also causes diabetes and heart disease.
Then we die young, quite often lingering painful deaths.
But hang on; … Most of us enjoy a beer and we don’t want to get crook or die young??
Well drink a naturally brewed craft beer.
All brews from The West Coast Brewery DO NOT HAVE LIQUID SUGAR.
• West Coast Draught
• West Coast Black
• West Coast Classic Lager
• West Coast Pure Gold
• Green Fern Certified Organic
• Good Bastards Dark Ale
• Good Bastards Lager
GET INTO THE GOOD GROG, GET INTO WEST COAST BEER

Have You Had A Guts Full About Political Correctness? |
Have you had a guts full of all this political correctness crap that has been going on and on and on?
I sure have and I’m going to do something about it.
It started off in the form of a few minor moves from a hand full of perennial do-gooders doing a so called tidy up of the language.
Then the bastards found that no one ‘doth protest’ and they increased the intensity to the point where daily our freedoms are eroded with stupidity.
Oh yes we protested alright, down the pub, at the Barbie, at the footy function, dinner party, 21st, 60th and any other function where the Good Bastards of the world congregate.
But did we actually do anything about it???
No way, we bathed ourselves in own apathy and just whinged and did buggar all.
Well the time has come to marshal a force of a hundred thousand or more and take these bastards head on; using the same weapons the perennial do gooders have come to rely on. The squeaky wheel in the ear of the politicians.
Only our campaign won’t be a squeaky wheel crying for oil, it will be the continuous screech of chalk across the blackboard and the decibels will go up from there.
A large number of Good Bastards are behind the campaign and we are mustering the forces while sending out a few warning shoots to see who is complacent enough to not respond before we lampoon in with an all out long term battle.
If you too have had a guts full of rampant political correctness and want to get behind THE CAUSE then email and blow your spleen on what you think of the PC cancer that continues to erode our freedoms.
Here’s the address paddy@goodbastards.com

NEW BREWERY WINS TOP GONG |
Well, we no sooner got hold of the helm of the brewery and renamed it THE WEST COAST BREWERY and along comes along the NZ Beer Awards, while it was very short notice, we were able to get an entry in and guess what?
Our Green Fern Certified Organic Beer won an award, the top in its category for Premium Lager. We up against Breweries from all over the world and in this category we beat the bastards.
Montieths, Lion, DB, Speight’s never so much even received a bum wipe let along a gong.
Of course we know the reason for this, the judges know that real beer doesn’t have a cup of liquid sugar in every glass.
That stuff, that will make your heart stop ticking, give you sugar diabetes, make you fat and shrivel your liver up like a walnut.
Oh well, while they get smaller, we just keep getting bigger and better.
Look out you big hairy mammoths, your extinction is eminent

HEY, ... WE BOUGHT A BREWERY |
Well a lot has been going on in the world of Good Bastards.
As many of you know a group of club members joined together and formed a company that bought Miners Brewery in Westport New Zealand.
Now you would have to admit that this is serious Good Bastards Stuff.
Well, we have renamed the Brewery to The West Coast Brewery and gone through a complete rebranding of our beers and overall image.
We have formed a great team, lead at the Brewery by Dean Lamplough who has been working there for twelve years.
www.westcoastbrewing.com is undergoing a complete revamp and expect to have the new exciting site up for you to learn more shortly.
While we cannot at this stage accept any money, we are in the process of getting our prospectus approved. If you are interested in finding out whether or not it has the worth of investing in you can email Paddy on paddy@westcoastbrewing.com or fill out the form on the westcoast BREWING web site.
When we took over the brewery we were supplying kegs to 27 pubs, we now supply over 50 and the outlets taking our bottles have increased significantly.
Westcoast Brewing and Good Bastards are intrinsically linked so both supporters will hear a lot about one another.

WIN SIX A SET OF GOOD BASTARDS BOOKS |
Hey there you Good Bastards. Here is your opportunity to WIN six Good Bastards Books just for sending in the best Joke over the festive season.
Simply send in your best and funniest to paddy@goodbastards.com and if its funny enough it will also go in the joke section on the site.
Go for it, in the mean time heres one that just came in from long time original Good Bastard John Hynds.
A gentleman asked a waiter to take a bottle of Merlot over to an attractive woman.The waiter took the Merlot to the woman and said,
"This is from the gentleman seated over there," indicating the sender. She regarded the wine coolly for a second,not looking at the man, and decided to send a reply note to the man. The waiter, who was lingering for a response, took the note from her and conveyed it to the gentleman. The note read: "For me to accept this bottle, you need to have a Mercedes in your garage, a million dollars in the bank, and 7 inches in your pants."
After reading the note, the man decided to compose one of his own in return. He folded the note, handed it to the waiter and instructed him to return it to the woman. It read: "For your information, I have a Ferrari Maranello, a BMW Z8, a Mercedes CL600, and a Porsche Turbo in my garage. There is over twenty million dollars in my bank account. But, not even for a woman as beautiful as you would I cut three inches off. Just send the bottle back

PADDY SURVIVES THE HARLEY CRASH |
While Paddy Sweeney never made it to Good Bastards Day this year, due to an encounter with his Harley, his broken leg is on the mend and he now has a couple of plates to carry around. He’s not sure if they are dinner plates or soup plates, but they are there if he ever needs them.
The doc says he should be able to start walking by Christmas and back to normal shortly thereafter.
For the brave and initiated he’ll be at the Kumura Races on January 13th, so if you are there suss him out for a beer and a bet.

Good Bastards Day without Paddy?? |
Yes, thats what happened. Paddy had an aurgument with his Harley at the lights and the Harley won.
As a result he has his leg in plaster with it having been broken in two places.
As a result he was unable to travel to Hokitika and the event being bigger than the organisor went off without a hitch.
The Dunny Cart Racing took place at Cass Square and was won by the Hynds Pipes entry. (Some think that Gus Heveldt the Handicappier had a vested interest in it winning)
A keg of our new beer WEST COAST DRAUGHT was available for sampling and it was a great hit.
To such an extent that some folk remained drinking the blessed stuff all day.
The Good Bastards Band entertained and it was a great day for all.
