Of course, BBC gets American Chopper, whilst we get more intelligent fair, but I’m not fully complaining.

…He has been at the forefront of may expeditions and helped the world understand places we could only dream about with his unique brand of expertise and wit. And for his his 50-year career in broadcasting, he was celebrated in the BBC programme Life on Air. He is a pioneer, a world class scholar, and recognizable the world round for his accompaniment in many of the best documentaries of our time.

…Now, don’t get me wrong, she was brilliant opposite Sir Ben Kingsley in Death And The Maiden, and Gorillas in the Mist still leaves me with a sense of awe, but documentary narrator?

…Discovery’s intro was like being hammered in the head with a tuba while being trampled by bison and pummeled by boulders falling from Everest…. Are we that dense as a populace that, in order to watch something of this caliber, we need it screamed at us?

…It’s a way of cutting quickly between shots so that your eyes have no time to focus on the facts you are seeing…or think you saw.

…I know it may not seem like it right now, but I love the Discovery Channel and all its sister networks.

…Apologize to Ms Weaver, pay her wht you owe her, but give Sir David his respect and give us some as well.

Ok, I swear…this time I should be done

I did some updating on both my site and the Jukebox. The site design is a lot less Fisher Price, now. And hopefully easier to manage.

You can also now vote on Topics that I post about.

…As for the Jukebox, there are a TON of new songs on the it…. The pop-up player is now also cleaner, easier to manage, and a little smaller so it doesn’t take over your desktop.

Also, it now displays Album Art. Aaaaaand…it has Videos. Well, one for now…but there will be more later.

…FYI - I added a special artist to the list…. If you haven’t seen or heard from him in a while, it’s worth checking out.
