Nah - that's just a redneck gun-nut, Percy. To such people, guns are toys.
To survivalists, guns are tools.

Maybe not quite as quiet as your suggestion, but it could be a lot more fun when there are no enemy in sight. ![Grin](images/smilies/smile2grin.gif)
lol, thats very 1985 Yankiwi so a bit young for my taste ![LOL](images/smilies/lol.gif)
Guitars aint weapons. They are to be loved.
Hitting someone with your axe would be akin to slapping someone about with your wife, girlfriend or children. besides, I hear Hoop can take an eye out at 1000 yards with his ballpoint so no match for that.

That street sweeper looked rather suited to a career in armed hold ups

Chart Update.
I thought I would wait until something unexpected happened, YK. I got bored with posting the same old same old "normal" chart week after week.

I now regret revealing my preparations for the coming apocalypse. All too often visionaries are perceived as cranks. As I have previously explained, my approach is to hope for the best and prepare for the worst. I have always classed myself as a cynical idealist.
Well-read habitues of this forum will be familiar with this quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald :- “The true test of a first-rate mind is the ability to hold two contradictory ideas at the same time and still function.”
The question is, of course, am I am functioning? I shall make some enquiries.

How much affect will EQC have when they have to sell up to pay out all the Christchurch claims?

Nil. They hold around $5 billion cash, and from what I remember JK saying, all of their equities are overseas. This makes sense, as it would adversely effect NZ if they had to liquidate quickly, and the fact a major earthquake could put a dampener on the economy too (think Wellington).
All up they have around $15 billion in assets, which is quite impressive given the commission was only set up in the 90's.

I thought I saw or heard a report to the effect that the EQC doesn't hold any NZ equities?
