Talking motorcycles with my coworkers

Guest post written by Alex Lee

For the longest time when I would carpool with my coworkers back and forth, the talk would be all about motorcycles. Except I was the only one that didn't own a motorcycle. But now that isn't a problem because I just bought one about a month or so ago. I wanted one for some time now, but after hearing them talk about their bikes all the time, I really decided that I needed to have one.

I mentioned to them that I was going to buy a bike and they gave me a lot of device. But I also decided to do my own research, as well. I was online one night looking up different bike models and while I was online I happened upon the website www.get.wildblue.com. I read through it some and after that I decided to switch over my home internet service to the provider.

It turns out at least half of the information they gave me was true, but it was really close at that halfway mark. They did give me some good direction about what to get though, I'll give them that much. We're already planning our first bike ride together.

ABC Accused of Not Paying General Hospital Creators Their Rightful Share

As we all know, one of the longest running of the American institution known as soap operas is about to end. General Hospital began airing in 1963, and was created by the couple Frank and Doris Hursley. Apparently, ABC might not have been very honest with them in what the show actually showed in profits.

Both now deceased, the Hursley's daughters (of course. sure they cried fountains) have begun asking questions about just exactly what ABC might owe for the show. The estate of Frank and Doris Hursley has filed suit against ABC claiming that they were not paid the agreed upon rate of 10% of the show's profits.

The suit has been filed in hopes that the judge will quickly force ABC to open their books and set the record straight. The Hursley's claim that ABC has been cooking their books for years, although the lawsuit doesn't specify just how much they think they are owed.
