I have to laugh about the winds reported during the hurricane. 90 mph winds! Wow! At Mojave airport we got those about 5 times a year. It is common to see winds 45 gusting to 70 mph in the winter months.

At Mojave I've seen 110 mph. Above 90 727s and DC9s were being moved if not proberly tied down!

That's all nothing, we have this natural disaster called skag-rats. It seems to happen well - all the time these days. What happens is all the scum come out at once - meet up and then there's big fights and innocent by-standers get drawn in sometimes...it's quite sad - and there's always a big clean-up operation afterwards.

Soccer rioting is a whole different natural disaster. It normally involves the same kind of people though.

The PC term is 'chav' - the correct term however is scrot.

Short for "Scrotum" but sure, add "Head" in there if you want. Other names include "Townie" - "Leper" - "Skag-Rat" - "Tooth" - "Brown-Tooth" - "Smack Head" and the list goes on...

Their center of operations is right here in Doncaster. It's the heroin, STD and teenage pregnancy capital of Britain.

Many people from the north of Britain would be shocked if they ever visited London - they'd be surprised to see most of the people have teeth! I was even making the joke to my brother's girlfriend when in Duxford - "See, this is what they mean when they talk about a developed country. Don't worry, we'll be heading back to the third world after the air show..."

And I say all this while coming from the north - but I still have my teeth.
