I ain't hiding anything, I'll put all my cards on the table so to speak.


I've been told that I have (at times) an askewed view of things and life in general.

Since when was that a bad thing?

I mean it'll obviously rub some people the wrong way, but it certainly beats being one of the masses who doesn't say what they think and all like the same god damn thing.

Everybody around me goes loopy when the summer gets here and I just don't bloody get it. First of all, if hell freezes over you go on holiday and have a good time, then you're pissed off/upset about having to go back to your usual existance. I'd rather just cut out the middle and not go anywhere, I get pissed off everytime I come back.

We (in Scotland) have piss poor weather every single year, we had nothing but rain and gale force winds from about July to September (with the odd quiet day every few weeks). It just pissed me off and made me realise that I am and always will be a winter guy.

Hell when the weather is shitty then you just accept it as part of the package and you don't have to suffer from hayfever.

I even hate these light nights we have, it just buggers up my "body clock" for the entire day regardless of whether I'm busy or doing nothing. So that in turn results in many, many sleepless nights.

Then in the UK summertime = reality TV time.

Even if you don't watch much TV, our papers, magazines, radios and websites are filled with the latest "gossip" that quite honestly very few people give a crap about in the first place.

On top of that you have movies that are all bang, but 99.9% of the time they have absolutely nothing to them. The only big blockbuster I've seen from last year was Pirates...2.

This year we're getting Transformers...do we really need it? Mind you, I'd rather sit through that than see the big screen version of The Sims (which is happening and I wish I was joking).


Now onto wrestling (bet you saw my profile and never would've guessed that I'm a wrestling fan).

Back in the day the WWE (then WWF) would run 4 PPVs a year (Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania, Summerslam and Survivor Series).

This changed around 1995-96 when they started having 1 PPV a month, which would (obviously) lead to 12 per year.

They changed it again as some months will have 2 PPVs to it's name.

There was a PPV on last week (Judgment Day)

There is a PPV on next week (One Night Stand)

and another one about 2 weeks after that (Vengeance)

It would help if they were all of at least decent quality, but that honestly hasn't been the case. Some of the shows have good matches on them, just to have it let down by something utterly piss poor.

I'd rather see someone like Matt Hardy than having to sit through a 2 hour show pretty much dedicated to Bobby Lashley.


Anyway, that's (at least part of) my annual "I hate summer" rant over. If you stayed for the whole thing then my hat is off to you, even though I'm not wearing one.

Rock and roll.



p.s. - this thing is nearly 3 years old, how time flies...
