Well - I'm white, male , married - discrimination against who is perfectly legal and indeed encouraged.

I'm white, male, married, depressed, has a mortgage, born in Bristol, lives in Essex - taken plenty of flack for both those.
People discriminate against West Country people - thats good fun, if you can't take it, don't give it.

I can only operate on what is given out by the USA in their media.

oh, that's a brilliant idea. Lemme guess, you're really partial to FOX News, huh?

Or you walk down a street and you're lucky to get home without being mugged / killed / shot / or beaten by the cops.

I'm willing to bet I walk down mainstreet USA more than you ever will...and have never had any of those experiences.

If Americans don't like their image then don't glamourise it and beam it out worldwide

What would you watch then? Dr. Who and Are You Being Served ? Remember, if there were no demand, our media would be supplying.

With the lottery - you could get a tan, perhaps a sex change, date a young firm bodied blond(e) (of which sex I don't know depending on the previous choices), divorce will inevitably follow.

You could move from Essex and buy a house outright in the sun - but you'd still be from Bristol.

Money won't solve everything Col!

FOX news - no thanks, thats owned by Rupert Murdoch who owns SkyTV here

It only takes one drug ridden thug or a spaced out cop

I was referring to the US news broadcasts by the BBC. Like the beating up of blacks by cops / the killing of schoolchildren by a weird gunman armed with a rifle / the killing of those wierd cult people (Amish?) / John Lennon getting shot on the street - if John had stayed in the UK he would still be alive today, its that poxy Yoko that forced him to live there

I won't go on, its not in my nature to critisise

Nothing wrong with Bristol!!

As Arnie Swartzthingy said "Money doesn't make you happy. I now have $50 million but I was just as happy when I had $48 million."

I think you watch too much TV... definitely time for a long x-country tour on the bike Still too cold here to take it to work...another week or two, perhaps.

Watching the news is not "watching too much TV" - thats real news by the way, not the censored stuff your dictator allows you to see

Bloody summer sofftee!!!!! Get out there and start riding it - you're as bad as Kenny, only going out in July - if the temp is below 80F its too cold for you yanks?

Its 21c (70F) here today, bright sunshine

hmm...I heard it causes paranoia, grumpiness, and a shrinkage of the testicles

As soon as the night temps are over 53F (11C), I'll go. I have a 33 mile commute, at 6AM, averaging 75MPH (120KPH) (speaking of shrinkage)... less than 53F and I can't feel my fingers for the first hour I'm at work Been out only twice this year. We've been breaking all kinds of cold temperature records lately.

Col

Heated waistcoat? You're kidding right?

 

[ColinEssex]

maybe you can take some tablets for it

Yes. I saw it on the news the other day. Oddly we've got the reverse, unseasonably warm weather.

Just been for a fag - off home now. Catch you later

Col

 

[Bodisathva]

enjoy the ride...

...ignore the news

 

[ColinEssex]

Heated waistcoat? You're kidding right?

not at all, best purchase I've made in motorcycle gear. here

See, the problem I have is that I'm not eligable for a car parking permit at work, there's limited space even if you have a permit, can't park in the street because of restrictions, so I have to ride the bike all year or get the bus if its too icy and snowy.

Hum... Neat trick. I wonder if they ship to the US...

Sucks about the parking permit... I can see why you show up at the forum in a foul mood

Among his other shortcomings, (with reference to you link), I say this would be true for Col:

.. a sign of substandard ability with the language

Just kidding Col...
