Here is a list of The History Channel’s great programs: Ice Road Truckers – Season One, er er er er well that's about it really.
However, somehow I am attracted back time and time again to watch Monster Quest, UFO hunters and any show that deals with the end of the world (December 21st 2012 according to them but we know different don’t we loyal reader?). Each show is marked by dubious, one sided research, dodgy grainy footage and freaky people who believe in whatever they are investigating. In all the shows I’ve seen not one single episode has ever resolved a mystery. It's great!
One thing does become obvious however when watching these shows. That is that anyone who wants to be known as a sea monster, UFO, ape man or end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it expert one must first eschew any formal form of hairdressing. Not only are these people insane their follicles are mad as well.
So if you want to convince me crop circles are made by UFOs then you need to get to a barbers first.
BTW since we are talking about history. We know the Black Death arrived on a Genoese trading ship into the port of Florence in the early 13th century. We also know plague is carried by black rats and transferred in the fleas who have feasted on infected black rats and then humans. But why didn’t the rats, fleas and all the humans die on the boat in the first place? Therefore alerting the Florantines (he he. I know it’s either Fiorentini or Florentians but I’ve always wanted to use that gag) that a bad thing was on board. And rats die of plague too, so why didn’t they?

Some of those IRT guys look like that too. Maybe it's a requirement!
