Its because accountants and lawyers are in charge,bullying creates these nasty people and they get their own back when they leave school.A days proper work amongst the real workers would educate them more.tosser Blair proves my point he,s just filling his pockets at our expense like the coalminers legal teams.No wonder the youth have lost all faith in a future.

for a routine angeogram (sp?) and ended up with an emergency triple by-pass. My cancer surgery was a walk in the park by comparison.
Unlike last year, this year I have had a very slow recovery. So what's a guy to do when ya can't lift, push or pull anything over 5
pounds? I still can't get high speed out here so I can't even enjoy surfing the net. Well I sit and veg out in front of the tube. I
tell ya there is nothing and I mean NOTHING decent on daytime TV! And that includes Speed channel!
So, I dug out about 80 VHS tapes I had recorded over the years. My O my what great programs we use to get.
Now comes my rant.
Not that long ago we use to get unsurpassed WSB coverage. Including, a half hour show mid-week that gave a recap of the last race
weekend and previews of the next. It also included great rider bios and in-depth interviews. Plus, behind the scenes tech stuff.
Same goes for WRC. Rally Magazine was great at doing the same types of things as the WSB show did. Plus, the weekend rally action
was more in-depth. The photo coverage of the Special Stages was superb too! I'm part way through my collection of the 16 round 2004
WRC season videos and I'm really pissed that I can't follow the '07 season like this.
No, instead we get hours and hours of NASCAR Crap! Tradin' Paint, Back in the Day, NASCAR Today etc. and reruns add noisome. And
don't get me started on those "American Biker Lifestyle" or so called reality shows like Chop, Cut Regurgitate! YUK!!!!
OK, so yes I'm happy with Speed's keeping some of it's programming like MotoGP and Le Mans coverage. But really people, when I look
back at these videos and realize what we've lost, I just want to cry.... :-(
A very unhappy grumpy old man am I.
