Whenever living within a dormant local job market gets me a bit down, I'm glad I can always rely on the letters section of The Weekend Sun to provide some laughs.
After having to endure an awfully serious piece about the benefits of solar power in the most recent edition, I was thankful to come across Ernest Izzet's contribution - ‘Too many dogs in NZ'.
Though many will be aghast at how an offensive, unsubstantiated, and prejudiced point of view could be held, let alone published by The Weekend Sun - I love the idea you ran with it anyway. Pure gold. (I did wonder if perhaps it's ghost-written by editorial staff in the name of diverting attention from more serious issues? Ernest Izzet? - too perfect).
Nevertheless I wonder if ol' Ernest (I can only suppose old age has something to do with his lack of scruples), on a multitude of levels perhaps inadvertently provides an insight on how also to deal with the aging population problem?
But then, if the paper loses most of it's readership, from whom would we continue to get our comic relief? Tu Meke.
A Pittam, Katikati.
