Go Palmerston North!
DPF has written about a Palmerston North promo whereby you can win a trip to Palmy. The prizes are very amusing.

Oh my God. They can't even come up with a No 5 and their No 4 is listening to an academic talk!!! Oh yes this will bring the masses in.
Only 2 hours to Wellington! (or faster if you're Lundy)
We've got McDonalds!
Only slightly inconvenient to get to!
Mario the poo-man lives here!

Palmerston North - it's not Hamilton!
Nice! I expect we'll be offered lucrative contracts with Saatchis any minute now to work on the campaign.
Um... will I regret asking who is Mario the Poo Man?
you might.
Apparently there was a guy who looked exactly like Johnny Depp who worked at a record store (read:HOT), but you know, he liked the poo. From the girls. In his mouth.
PML!
Gah! Finzi listen to the talks...
I like how they claim to have top academics. Like, if I had a brain the size of a planet (and I'm not saying I don't), and a choice of doing my research at Cambridge, MIT, Caltech, Leiden, or Massey. Then I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be picking Massey.
There's a billboard for Massey in New Plymouth prclaiming "Only 2.5 hours to the knowledge city".
ONLY 2.5 hours? Do you think all the Taranakians are commuting?
Yes llew, you will regret asking ... and I regret you asking as well ... ick!
Palmerston North...more rain than Irland, more wind than Wellington!
I had a ridiculously drunken Sunday night in Palmerston North recently. When at last we ventured forth from the hotel looking for action, nothing was open! Apart from one of those barn-like bars, cavernously large and filled with pool tables that say 'Tui' and no people.
Not that it mattered. We had a fab night.
