Today I was sitting in a Greek restaurant owned by a friend, we have a little click we call our little neighbourhood cosa-nostra..we pop in at any given time of the day like gangsters, drink coffee, play cards, and shoot the *beep*, except we are just working professionals in black suits driving nice Cadillacs and Jaguars mine's an x-type:)

Oddly enough one of my Capo's mentioned they heard there was an episode on A&E about teachers in South Korea and he mentioned it to me because he happens to know i'm leaving. Something having to do with the frustrations they have to face about everyday living, or so on..anyone have any ideas where I can find this? If anyone knows of any or some other documentaries don't stand on ceremony, I would love to see some. Documentaries is pretty much all I watch. Unless it's the Soprano's.

Then I hope you know the difference between a documentary and a reality show.

The only show like that I know of was called "English Teachers." We were discussing it recently. I never knew they did a season on Korea. Not much useful information out there.

Idiot.

Define what YOU think is the difference between reality and Documentary and i'll tell you if it's right or not. In the meantime go find me a show and shut the *beep* up.

What a moron!

If he's gonna be an ass I don't want his help. He should have a little more respect when he talks to me. If he can't have respect for people then he's garbage to me and that's that. Anyways I found it..it's called The Waygook Experience you can find it on YOUtube.

Enjoy

The only thing I need to give you is slap in the head.

You like to sit here and *beep* around one day you're gonna slip and say that to the wrong person in their face and you're not gonna be a happy camper. If you said that to me in my face I don't care who was there I would put your head in the ground.

I'm not a violent person but I don't like disrespect.

Christ, and I was being friendly.

Seriously though, if you think Flava of Love or The Apprentice are in the same genre as Carl Sagan's Cosmos or Winged Migration, you need to pay closer attention.

Judging by your flamboyant reaction to my helpful post, I think we can all see why you need to drive a Jaguar.

And for the record:
Reality TV show: a game show taking place in a controlled setting with artificial constructs posed by the programme's producers, ie) elimination, paid actors, judges, million-dollar prizes, and even post-production editing to make people likeable or unlikeable.
Documentary: a programme that offers an unstaged look at real life, or provides a factual analysis.

Ok and why do I care? Now that you proved to know the definition. Was I at anytime asking for the difference between a documentary and a reality show? Thank you...

If you would stick to the topic and stop being a smart-ass you wouldn't get that response. Learn to shut your mouth once in a while. If you wouldn't say that to my face then don't say it here. Truth of the matter is you think your brave to say whatever you want because your behind a pc, i'm not a weasel like you. I don't have to hide because I would say this right to your face, maybe an inch away. I love how some people act so tough around here. In person their nothing more then geeks, no more then 90 pds or over 500 pds. Too funny man, too funny. I hate people like that, and yes that includes you.
