quick turn on Discovery channel

quick turn on Discovery channel

Its an old OCC rerun but will give you so much background on the whole OCC drama, it will blow your mind.

This is the one rarely shown one where SR blubbers like a baby spillin his guts like a girl. [that's what the "macho man" side of me thinks]

though it expains all the drama in a real way.

I missed it but I know the one you're talking about. I find it so sad that things turned out the way they did. I like watching the reruns and when you do they always seemed to be at least having fun. I wonder if the pressure of a failing economy wore on Sr. to the point where he just couldn't deal anymore and took it out on Jr.? I hope they work it out some day but I think the wounds are to deep and Sr.'s to stubborn. The fact that he just keeps $hitting on Jr. and wouldn't even see the bikes he made is bad. I think Sr. expected to see Jr. come crawling back and when he didn't and opened his own shop it hurt him.

What a shame and so sad....:(

Having lost both my parents now, I would give ANYTHING to have them back here, and these guys are wasting precious time avoiding each other...

I have said it before, and I'll say it again, 'tomorrow is promised to NO ONE'...all we have is today, and we need to let the people in our lives know we love them right now, while they are still with us, so we have no regrets later, when they are gone...

This is just so sad and unnecessary...they will never get this time back...I just hope they makeup before one of them dies...

I think they are talking again. I saw them working together in the new episodes, but I havent been following it much lately.

Prima, sorry about your folks. :( But not everyone has a good relationship with their parents, like me. I know its terrible to say, but I could careless if they died tomorrow... But that's another story.

I'm sorry for you Hemlawk...my husband is kinda in your situation with his family...
I had a hard time growing up, always fighting with my parents...I thought they hated me and a lot of the time I hated them too...
Thankfully, once I moved out and got married, I got along great with my mom...only 3 yrs after I got out, she was diagnosed with cancer and I watched her suffer for the next 12 yrs...
I still had some issues with my dad, and I remember asking my mom what I would do when she was gone and not around to 'run interference' between me and my dad...
Well, looking back now, I think her dying first was a mixed blessing, because for the next 14 yrs after she died until my dad died, we got a chance to get along and got really really close...
The sad part is that I finally got the dad I waited my whole life for, and then he died, which is why it is so hard for me now...
I barely survived losing my mom, but at least I still had my dad...now I don't have either one, however, I have no regrets at all, because I got to have those good years with my parents before they died, and got to tell then how much I loved them...
I don't know your situation, and I'm not trying to be nosy, but I am telling you my story in case there is a chance for you to reconcile with yours...
No judgements here, just telling my story in hopes of helping you...

To make a long story short: I was adopted, my current family took we in when i was 9. I've always been treated like a second rate citizen by my adoptive parents. They treat my wife like crap too, which is bs because she is a sweetie. It's not worth the aggravation, so I just stopped all contact.

I'm sorry to hear that...that sounds unusual for adoptive parents, however, there are all kinds of people out there, and not all of them are nice...
I am sorry for you and your wife, and I agree with you that in your situation, you need to protect your own feelings...
So sorry about how you were treated...you know the saying, "you can pick your friends, not your family"...I guess you need to be around people that love and respect you and your wife...
Your Camaro family cares about you!

Is it real or is it a soap opera?
