Boxing day sale
Brian Mag
Get yourself retail therapy, you know you need it.
From late night shopping xmas eve to sales starting AM
boxing day it's 36 hours of no shopping. Who can
stand that? Come to the Surf Magnetics sale and sign
our petition to abolish the disgusting restrictions on
xmas day trading.
Shops in new zealand can start boxing day sales before
the pope has finished xmas day mass. Why shouldn't
you do too. Last minute shoppers want to buy gifts
until 5pm xmas day. Black hearted atheists want to
shop xmas day but the law discriminates against their
religion. Santa surfs. What if santa needs
bio-magnetic wax when delivering presents in hawaii?
Where will he buy it?
Surf Magnetics XMAS hampers still available.
Don't delay, order now, guaranteed delivery by XMAS.

In case you haven't noticed, Christmas is on the 25th of December and
the 25th of December in New Zealand is the 24th of December in the
Northern Hemisphere. In fact, New Zealand is the first place in the
world where the sun rises on Christmas, New Year and the Pope's
birthday. So Christmas in the Northern Hemisphere is Boxing Day in New
Zealand.

I'm saying you have your East/West mixed up with North/South.
It's the Int'l dateline and Greenwich meridian that dictate what day
it is. Not the Equator. Think about it....

Kiribati is the the first place to greet the new day. Not NZ.

Apparently not.

It has *nothing* to do with North and South. Any place that is
in line with the same longitude as NZ will be in the same time zone,
give or take a few possible exceptions.
Northern and Southern hemispheres dictate the seasons. Not time.

The first land place to see the new day is Big Diomede Island in the
Bering Straits. That's approximately 169 degrees West Longitude.
(FWIW, most of the Chukotsky Peninsula is East of New Zealand.) The
furthest Easternmost point in New Zealand is approximately 178.5
degrees _East_ Longitude, but the Date Line around New Zealand is
actually almost 10 degrees East of New Zealand, so the sun rises on
the new day on Big Diomede Island at least 40 minutes before New
Zealand.

Since the Date Line zigzags around the Aleutian Islands and New
Zealand/Tonga, People on Shemya Island, while on the same longitude,
are a day behind Auckland and for some strange reason, in the same
time zone as Hawaii which is -10 hours instead of -12. Another anomaly
is Tonga, which is +13 hours, so Tonga sees the new day an hour ahead
of New Zealand.

When I began explaining this to Bob, I thought that you
would probably chime in and be a lot more specific than I was.

At Sandy Beach. Open 9am to 6pm including new years eve.
If you have old iron oxide ink tattoos then phone ahead to ensure we
have a Faraday suit in your size as latest stock di-nickel nimidium
magnetic boards will pull on iron hard enough to be painful.

The web site has been down the last hour and half for
maintenance. Try it again now. If it doesnt work then
your computer is busted. The fuckwits at the web hosting
said it was 5 minutes scheduled maintinance. 5 fuckin
minutes fucken bull. The idiots knocked out the cable
and tried to blame it on my site and wanted charge to
reprogram the data. Idiots. You try to run a business
and thats what you get eh.

Will it affect the titanium in my penile implant?

And lets not forget the South Pole, where around now sunrise was about
a month ago and sunset won't be for quite a while yet.
As it happens, a buddy of mine is down thataway, driving large
machinery.

The king of tonga is a most enlightened and business oriented ruler.
The new day begins sooner in tonga than anywhere else. If youre a money
lender that means you get paid sooner. This is why creditor nations are
all based in the east and debtor nations in the west.
The king is going to advance the timezone further so that the year 3000
millenium celebrations take place next January. It will be really
excellent for tourism to have lots of visitors who want to be the first
to celebrate a milestone and a milestone they might not live to see in
their own backward countrys.

I already have your bank account you just have to place an order.
If you buy a board you get a free wax. A wax is included in the
surf magnetics xmas hamper too. Order a hamper now and pay
nothing until 2010. Come to our shop at Sandy Beach and try
before you buy. New shop opening at Main Beach in January too.
If you have any sort of joint pain, arthritic hips, bad back from
horizontal rumba, gluten intolerance, night blindness, then get
biomagnetic wax and biomagnetic board. Have confidence in the
power of biomagnetic surf products and you will feel great and
surf more.

So, in terms of babeage, you're saying it only attracts bluehaired

If your girlfriend is a decrepid 75 year old then buy her a
bio-magnetic board and give her the bounce of a spritely 70
year old. Try bio-magnetic board shorts for hip pain or try
a new Surf Magnetics bio-magnetic surf hat against
forgetfullness. Come to our new shop at Main Beach for a
personal consultation.
Now is the time you really need bio magetic surf products.
The festive season is over and your body is full of toxins
from the celebrations. Your body cannot get rid of toxins by
itself, but Surf Magnetics products will draw them out
naturally and make you feel great. Do it before you start
gorging on chocolate hot cross buns for easter. Buy today.
