Wayne's World.

No love for Test Pattern?



For a time this was the only show I was banned from watching as a kid. It was due to the frequently occurring category 'Sex'.

Post Juno awards party in the Penthouse suite at the harbour Castle Westin Toronto sponsored by Molson.

She was wearing a full leather jacket and skirt and looked really good. I was talking to her and found out that she was from a small town near where I grew up in Manitoba and we knew some of the same people (intant ice breaker)
later in the evening we are doing blow in the fully marble masterbathroom and getting busy.

Luckily we have the government around to make sure the channels they mandate we buy with our cable play stuff nobody wants to watch. God forbid we let the TV stations try and show things people are interested in.

Maybe they should mandate that all youtube videos have 15% CBC content.

yes, because what we need is more MTV style reality shows....which is exactly what they'd want to show on that channel.

The station isn't for us anymore.
When we were kids, music videos were the hot thing. Now they've been beaten to death, anything and everything has been done in music videos so it's boring.

Now the station wants to do lifestyle shows cause kids like that now.

I actually have a massive custom built shelf in my bedroom that holds around around 400 VHS and casette tapes. Might be an outdated medium but them still play!

Yeah only some. Tough to keep everything over the years.
Some of the tapes I have are Beta too. real useful.
Down to one box in the basement, videos and Flames games.
