Default American Chopper Observations

No matter what you all may think about American Chopper, Monster Garage,
etc. I think these programs have ignited a spark of metalworking creativity
in the American public not seen since the Industrial Revolution. I now have
a couple of friend's teenage sons hanging around my shop trying to
experience and learn ANYTHING they can about bikes and any other machinery.
This is especially gratifying to me, as I was taken under the wing of an
older mentor at the age of 16, and have always wanted to be able to pay it
forward. He died 2 years ago, so now it's my turn. Along with my 2 sons,
these other 2 young men will be part of my legacy, such as it is. Four
present and future members of the metalworking fellowship we all here hold
so dear.

It's entertainment, not a how-to show.

Get it?

No?

That some people find it entertaining? Yeah, I get that. To me it's a
soap opera filled with acrimony.
