So yes! I am totally a dad now! Little Man is coming up to his third week of life, and his geopolitical opinions are a little rough around the edges. It’s ok, we have time to iron them out I’m sure. I had a whole lot of great gags written here but WordPress deleted it all. So this post is going to be much more brief.

Auckland just got it’s first lockdown in about a year due to someone walking in some Delta variant from Australia. Nice one guys I hope it was worth it. Although in all honesty I haven’t noticed any difference. I’ve been on paternity leave lockdown since Little Man was born. So my life has not been impacted at all.

A stage magician produces a rabbit out of his top hat. The rabbit is disoriented and in awe of its surroundings.

“This is so cool. I wonder what I was created fo-”

The magician turns the hat toward the audience so everyone can clearly see - it’s empty. Applause.
