I was going to have a rant about the demise of "Hearsay" tonight...but I can't be arsed. Stock, Aitkin and Waterman have single-handedly destroyed the British Music Industry by overloading it with this sort of commercial crap anyway and ruined any future developments in the music scene by squeezing out people with actual talent. That's all there is to it. Not much point in wasting my valuable time complaining really.

So instead...I found the following posted in the 'Scrag Ends Guestbook' (and if you thought it wasn't working then, oddly enough, so did I):

Now, if I was being cyncial, which of course I'm not because, quite frankly, butter wouldn't melt up my bottom...not that I've ever tried of course...it's just an expression...where was I? Oh yes...if I was being cynical I'd say that Intex Auto-Parts hadn't even seen the Scrag Ends web site. I disconnected the guestbook several weeks ago after numerous complaints that it wasn't working properly so the only way into it recently would have been via Google or some other search engine whilst looking specifically for guestbooks to sign. The vagueries of the phrase 'Great Content' tend to support this hypothesis...but, like I say, I'm not being cynical. I'm sure that Intex Auto Parts weren't just lying through their arses whilst advertising their crappy business at all, and that they're a great retail company as opposed to a bunch of lying, opportunistic and cynical f*ckwits themselves.

Seeing as they kindly left their e-mail address for our benefit, my advice would be for all our regular viewers to send them their own 'Great Website' comments. Just make sure you don't send them any spam. Especially of a highly pornographic nature.
