Anyway. So we come out of the joint later on and one buddy was getting in his truck as me and the other guy were heading for our car and the other guy gets out of his lime green ford short box step side (I $heet you not) was revving up his engine and gets out cussing and hollaring and we go over to see what was wrong and he was furious because while we were in the club somebody(s) stole his drive shaft, the whole drive shaft.
Man that was some funny $heet right there I don't care who you are!

Hadn't watched it in a while.... didn't know Vinny, left, until I read it here.... so I HAD to watch it last night (for a while, anyway)
Without jr's drama, and Mikey drying out.... the shop seemed more stable, with a lot less yelling, and cursing.
I don't care if jr is a "creative genius" or fulla crap.... either you come in on time, and carry your share, or hit the road....
I watched for over half hour... seems like they are doing better... but I still wouldn't want one of their bikes....
guess I'll just keep my "fugly" stock bike

Ok, I haven't watched much in the last year either but did watch both back to back episodes last night. Do like to see the bikes they build and watch the build. Quit watching because more time was focused on the relationship and other crap versus building bikes. Loosing Vin was a major blow to them as he was the most knowledgeable guy. Sr is an idiot. He was lucky the network at the last minute decided to not make a show about a guy rebuilding vintage bikes, and come to him instead. They thought the other show would be boring because the guy had no personality. He kind of just fell in to it. Jr is not much smarter but has a big ego and thinks because he built some bikes he can design anything. The only thing he has going for him is Rachel. Mikey, well he should hook up with Kate from "Plus 8" because they seemed to hit it off when they built a bike for that knucklehead. Otherwise he too is going to struggle finding work when all the crashes down. Last thing, why are they still showing Jr and Mikey if the show is American Chopper. Can't believe I just spent this much time talking about this.

I must be getting old. I remember listening to my father complain that there was nothing to watch on the 3 or 4 stations we used to get. Now I can get 240 stations and there is still nothing to watch. News , NASCAR,NFL and motorcycle racing on SPEED channel. If none of those are on, I sit and stare at my bike. WTF.

I can't STAND reality TV, even if it is bike related. The only time I watch "regular" TV is in bed going to sleep and then it is either natgo, discovery or the history channel. I am a movie freak and have belonged to netflix since 2002. Some months ago I bought a 54" TV and a bluray player that is capable of receiving netflix via my wireless modem. That being said, screw OCC, news, sitcoms yada yada!!!! I hate friggin commmercials....

Who is involved in three wars, yet won the Nobel Peace prize.
………………….and that Tiger Woods has been sleeping with ****** and his wife’s prenup gives her 300 million dollars.
Hilary Clinton is now our Secretary of State, but her husband still does more for international relations.
Oh yeah, Wall Street and congress are in bed together and they are all crooks, stealing our retirement money.
I just thought I'd bring you up to date.

Since you don't watch anything but movies, did you hear we now have a black president?

It's like a bad car wreck ... you drive by and know you shouldn't look ... but you still want to see the carnage.
My guess ... they are not nearly as dumb as people want to believe. There is not another motorcycle oriented show on TV that has lasted as long as these guys. And they keep popping up on this forum every couple weeks ... so I'm sure they are laughing all the way to the bank.
As for me, I still watch from time to time for the bikes. I have no fabrication and only limited mechanical skills. So even if it's a soap opera, the builds are interesting. And the secret is to make it look like any idiot can do it ... but whether you like it or not you got to admit that they do have some skill. If nothing else ... they've got the skill needed to keep the on the air for 6 years. How many other shows can say that?
