Of course, Winston Peters isn't comfortable with anything but that's not a bad thing.
Had he not gone into politics he could have been a dance teacher because he certainly keeps people on their toes.
There are a couple of MPs, whom I shall not name because it's only my opinion, who could have taken up other roles, like working to assist the bewildered as they are the masters of confusion when it comes time to answer what on the surface sounds like a simple question.
Oh yes, there is a national election in the wind ... at times it will become a warm wind as the expulsion of hot air increases.
There will be promises for all.
Promises which we, the slightly disillusioned public, listen to and generally mutter "let's wait and see".
This is a delicate time for the main contenders because they have the read the public mind.
What do the occupants of communities and cities from one end of the land to the other really want?
In a simple and perfect world it would be effective funding for the three staple ingredients of a happy landscape: Health, education and law and order.
So yeah, fat chance.
The incumbents have scored a black mark by announcing there could possibly be some slight cuts to highway policing numbers which leads me to wonder if they should consider having a Minister of Timing who would have sensibly declared "let's hold that thought until October".
Oh, I've just been informed it is not called the "national election".
Rather, it is the general election ... which sounds more like one of those dodgy voting jobs (aka a coup) in desperate and damaged lands when the leader of the army takes over.
Interesting times lie ahead as the big billboards go up and the ads on telly emerge.
I think one thing the National Party needs is a spokesperson who can engage the people on the ad front because I don't think its current general has that unique spark.
Hey, John Key's got time on his hands now ... he could pop into the studio to roll out a couple of 30-second promos.
Crikey, there is some thinly-veiled turbulence in the opposition ranks as the assistant general appears to be out-rating the top cat in the preferred leader polls.
It could all be rather interesting and the timing for the election is fine because there's unlikely to be much else on telly to watch.
I've never really been big on things of a political nature, although I do get concerned about some issues, and I am annually intrigued when Parliament shuts down for Christmas and they all take their hols.
Because the place just seems to keep on running just fine, if not better.
I've met and spoken with two Prime Ministers and one of the occasions saw me growled at for delaying Helen Clarke's appearance at a luncheon because we were having a fine chat about my dear old mum and how she came through the '31 earthquake.
Helen just said to her aide that "we'll get there shortly".
At the opening of a stretch of the cycleway I had to ask John Key if he could hang about for another five minutes (he had a tight schedule) for our photographer to arrive and he said "no problem" ... so we talked about rugby.
I've been thinking about this whole election thing and the chance to start my own party.
The "I Won't Stand For it Party".
Now some may see it as a party which will simply not tolerate some of the potentially damaging decisions which are made out there in the land of politics but it's not that at all.
I'll form it, but I just can't be bothered standing for it when it comes time to register with the electoral office.
