Some headline writer just had their best day ever.

Page 12, the back page, consists entirely of death notices and ads for senior citizen cruises, which seems well-targeted, if a little mean. "This will be you soon, oldies - better have fun while you can..."

Top of page 11 had the good stuff - what was on at the movies in 1975?

We then jump to pages 9 and 10, which are all classifieds. Anyone want to buy a section of land for under $10k?

Page 4 takes us into the Women section, and by section I mean half a page. This being just after the 1975 general election, we have an article on PM Rob Muldoon's wife, and an article on the election of 23-year-old Marilyn Waring.

Pages 1, 2 and 3 are just horse racing and advertisements. What ads go best with a nation's collective gambling addiction? Investments, hair product and a good 2/3 of a page devoted to Jim Beam.

The front page features the only splash of colour, in this advertisement for the 1985 Holden Torana.

I have two sheets from the New Zealand Herald for 1 December 1975. They're from section 3 of the paper, which is of course the Racing, Women and Classifieds section.

I'm really not sure what to make of this. I saw a few bits of newspaper on our lawn that I figured blew in from the street, or fell out of the delivery truck that had just dropped something off. I was about to throw them out when I saw they were FROM DECEMBER 1975. Let's take a look...

Did someone else mention Ed Gein recently, or is @jasonkpargin.bsky.social taking over Wikipedia as well?

I don't keep up with American politics, but from what I understand, this is Portland at the moment?

Nah, I'm just kidding. This was her exhibit:

Went to the New Plymouth museum last week. Found the exhibit on Your Mum.

Thank you, spam, but I'll be the judge of what I am or am not interested in.

I am interested in monkeygoo.com

I'm not usually a fan of AI-generated content - even if it's just chapter headings - but I'd be happy to make "Catching Up with Dr. Dentist" a regular feature.

Went to Auckland Zinefest, made a badge out of Jeff Goldblum's eye. Obviously.

Ah, yes - I remember saying something like this, let's see... ELEVEN YEARS AGO. How far we've come.

When instead they could have dramatized this bit from their Wikipedia page:

As always, the caption generator is having a perfectly normal time of it:

Merch! Podcasting merch! We are investigating the possibility of podcasting merch! And by "we" I mean @mrxdentith.com, since they love capitalism SO MUCH!!

If I have learned anything from The Simpsons, it's that this is a zebu, on account of it has a hump and a dewlap. Hump and dooolap! #humpanddewlap
