Best Careers To Work From Home
Question by Cydnei B: stay at home careers?
I have a two month old daughter, and I absolutely love being a stay at home mommy. The problem is, we really need an extra income right now. My husband is in the army, and unfortunately the military is way underpaid. I don’t want to leave my baby girl with strangers at a daycare, so my question is- does anyone know of any at home careers that aren’t scams? Your help would be much appreciated!!!

TV Shows We Used To Watch – 1970s – Wrestling
Image by brizzle born and bred
Turn back the clock to the 1970’s when Saturday afternoon meant one thing and that was Wrestling.
Wrestling – a mainstay of the World of Sport schedule from 1955 until it ended. Many of the wrestlers featured became household names in the UK and the greatest rivalry was between Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks
Tag team action was from the man in the big black pants (and hair to match) Mick McManus and Steve Logan versus Kendo and Gorgeous George and the late Pat Roach who went onto star in 4 series of TV’s Auf Wiedersehen Pet and Leon Arris (the great late actor Brian Glover) plus Jackie Pallo the pony tailed hero the girls loved to hate.
Kent Walton, the former wrestling commentator on World of Sport who died aged 86, was instantly recognisable from his husky welcome at 4 o’clock each Saturday afternoon: "Greetings, grapple fans."
A smoker who cultivated a mid-Atlantic drawl, Walton hosted the wrestling for all of the 33 years that it appeared, sandwiched between the half-time and full-time football scores; at the end of the allotted time, he would sign off: "Have a good week. . .till next week." When the ITV schedulers finally dropped the sport in 1988, he announced that his lips had been dented by so much time at the microphone.
Walton’s understated, factual commentary described wrestlers from George Kidd (his favourite), Jackie Pallo and Mick McManus to the less athletic Big Daddy ("Ea-sy, ea-sy") and Giant Haystacks. Walton hotly refuted allegations that the bouts were fixed, and would put into practice on saloon-bar doubters some of the wrestling moves he had learned. In its televised heyday, wrestling attracted as many as 12 million viewers. They included the Queen, whose interest in the sport was mentioned in Richard Crossman’s diaries; and Margaret Thatcher, who asked Big Daddy for six signed photographs, and found him useful for conversation in Africa, where he was a household name. The Duke of Edinburgh was said to be captivated by Johnny Kwango’s head-butting technique, and Frank Sinatra told Giant Haystacks that British wrestlers were the best entertainers in the world.
Big Daddy
Shirley Crabtree, Jr, better known as Big Daddy (14 November 1930 – 2 December 1997) was a British professional wrestler famous for his record-breaking 64 inch chest. Known for wearing his various Big Daddy leotards, Crabtree’s original one was emblazoned with just a large "D" and was fashioned by his wife Eunice from their chintz sofa.
Shirley Crabtree’s brother Brian was a wrestling referee and his nephew Eorl Crabtree is an England international rugby league footballer.
Crabtree died of a stroke in December 1997 in Halifax General Hospital. He was survived by his second wife of 31 years, Eunice and six children.
Giant Haystacks
Martin Ruane (October 10, 1946 – November 29, 1998) was an English professional wrestler of Irish descent. Best known by his ring name, Giant Haystacks, he wrestled in such places as England, the United States, Canada, India, and Zimbabwe. Ruane was known for his massive physical size, standing 6 ft 11 in (2.11 m) tall and weighing 48 stone (670 lb; 300 kg) at his heaviest.
Martin Ruane was born in London, England to parents originally from County Mayo in Ireland. When he was 3, in 1949, Ruane and his family moved north from London to Salford, which remained his home. He worked as a labourer and as a nightclub bouncer before a friend suggested he take up professional wrestling as a career. He died of cancer on Sunday, November 29, 1998 at the age of 52.
Kendo Nagasaki
Kendo Nagasaki is a professional wrestling stage name, used as a gimmick of that of a Japanese Samurai warrior with a mysterious past and even supernatural powers of hypnosis. The name derives from the modern martial art of Japanese fencing (Kendo), and Nagasaki is the name of a city on the south-western coast of Kyūshū, site of the second use of the atomic bomb.
The original and most well known use of the gimmick is by the legendary British wrestler Kendo Nagasaki who made his name in ITV’s World of Sport. This version of the Nagasaki character dates back to November 1964.
A true enigma of the British wrestling scene, the man known as Kendo Nagasaki was a part of the industry for nearly 40 years and, in that time, cultivated a legend that endures to this day. Hidden behind a red mask lined with white stripes to simulate the imposing visage of the headgear worn in a formal Kendo match and maintaining a stony silence, Kendo Nagasaki was an intimidating sight to behold both in and out of the ring. This combined with a genuine understanding of the theatrical aspect of professional wrestling, and a certain degree of athleticism made him an effective performer and a superb villain.
Mick McManus
Mick McManus (born Michael Matthews on 11 January 1928 in New Cross, London England), is a former English professional wrestler. He is credited as being one of the most famous heel European wrestlers of all time and often went by the nicknames "The Man You Love to Hate", and "Rugged South London Tough Guy".
McManus very much set the standard for wrestlers such as Mark Rocco and Kendo Nagasaki who chose to bend the rules as far as they could go without being disqualified, much to the fury of the crowd. He was also well known for using short range forearm jabs in matches. He became famous for his trademark black trunks and cropped black hair and for his catchphrase "Not the ears, not the ears".
McManus had many appearances on ITV’s World of Sport. During his televised matches, which spanned more than 20 years, McManus would lose only twice in a Championship match: once by disqualification against Peter Preston, and then again in his final years when he lost his title to youngster Mal Sanders (at which time McManus was well over 50-years-old).
One infamous televised match he lost was to the controversial parody wrestler "Catweazle" (Gary Cooper), due to two submissions caused by the latter tickling him whilst pinned. Such was McManus’s fury at the manner he lost that he refused to wrestle Cooper again, but agreed to relent for his final televised bout.
Les Kellet
Yorkshireman Les Kellet was born in Bradford in 1915. After completing an engineering apprenticeship and travelling the world as a merchant seaman Les returned to Bradford following the Second World war and established himself as one of the most successful and popular British wrestlers of all time. His wrestling trainer, Len Pickard, and promoter George de Relwyskow Snr., are the two men credited with cajoling the reluctant Kellet to follow a professional career
"Bomber" Pat Roach
Pat Roach was born in Birmingham in 1937 and by the age of 22 had gained a black belt in Judo. From this impressive achievement the 6’5 tall near 20 stone giant went into the rings of Great Britain becoming an instant hit due to his size and skill. Even though Pat was one of the largest athletes in the ring he was able to match holds with some of the smaller and more technical men of the era, this combined with his immense size made him a devastating opponent for anyone.
Mike Marino
Mike Marino was one of the most beloved Professional Wrestlers to ever to put on a pair of wrestling boots, he was loved in equal measure by both the fans and the wrestlers alike.

Open your own daycare … take in other Army Mom’s little kids.
Lots of telemarketers “work from home” tho I doubt you could actually make enough money to be worth your while as they probably pay on commission … you’d have to be on the phone making cold calls all day and all night just to get a couple bites.
MLM (multi level marketing) is another “stay at home” job … that’s stuff like Mary Kay / Avon / Amway / Tupperware etc. etc. etc. sales … but these types of things always cost money up front and take lots of time and effort to make any money. Most folk who get into these things never make any profit at all.
In reality, there are almost no real jobs that you can do at home unless you’ve already got years of experience & skill & an employer willing to have you “telecommute”.
Keep your eye on this space, very soon there should be half a dozen bogus scam / spam postings saying “check out this website, I made GRATE money!!!11” … trust me when I say they are guaranteed all bogus.
Good Luck anyhow!
Youdidnt take this photo did you ? Was it at the Colston Hall, I used to go regularly.
Sorry the photo was not taken in Bristol.

good stuff just watched you tube vidio
better than all this come dancing ,x factor
rubbish we have to day
My old teacher from St George Grammar School, John Mclarren , who was a Bristol City Councilor used to sit at the front regularly. Lots of Disabled people used to go and have a thoughroughly enjoyable time. Lots of money was raised for charity , and then , at half time, we all used to leg it up the road to that pub opposite the top of Christmas steps for a ‘ swift alf ‘ ! . I was shocked to learn that the Dynamite Kid , who we used to watch regularly is now in a wheel chair , after a back injury caused by wrestling. I remember meeting Big Daddy…Shirlley Crabtree ( as I took the photos for a book called Beginners Luck by Dan Lees which meant getting in the ring with him !), and he was a real sweetie and had a very gentle hand shake.
When we asked him if it was all ‘Put on’ in wrestling, he said…" well , we dont set out to kill one another, but thats as far as it goes" . I miss it greatly.. it was a good time …even he Queen loved wresling apparently, but I never did see her at the Colston Hall !…shame !
And don’t forget Jackie Pallo! (not sure if I selt the name right.
les kellett was the greatest!
Billy Two Rivers for me !!! loved the headdress, the war dance and the chop across the throat off the ropes !!
My favourite was the Dynamite Kid
I’ve gotten to know all these wrestlers through the music of Luke Haines… I highly recommend his latest album:

Great memories – thanks for making it available on creative commons i have used the commentary on my Yorkshire website [http://www.godsowncounty.co.uk/?p=3534]
big daddy and his brothers helped destroy proffessional wrestling in this country! by putting that tripe on instead of good technical wrestlers.
hope he and his brothers are proud of themselves…..
I dont think it is fair to speak ill of the dead. Big Daddy, or Shirley Crabtree did an awful lot for charity, a lot more than most sportsmen do ! I will hold his memory with a certain fondness and a good deal of respect.
Anyone remember The Borg twins, one of them is my dad. i’ve been looking for video footage of them for years without any succsess. I have been everywhere.
Reply d.l.borg@btopenworld.com. thx
Thank you for the mention Terry. British Wrestling is alive, well and fighting fit and still going strong. I was M.C. for an "All Star" bill in St Albans last night (19th Jan 2013)and the venue was packed. I’ve been M.C. and Referee since 1985 – still doing it – still loving it. Best Wishes Lee Bamber
Memories of Wrestling at the Colston Hall, Bristol by John Short.
John Short was the Master of Ceremonies and time-keeper at numerous Bristol grunt-and-grapple matches at the Colston Hall. Bristol.
“I saw my first wrestling match in 1959 when I was 16 years old,” John recalls.
Back then there were 1500 seats permanently block-booked from one fight night to the next at the Colston Hall, such was demand.
”I went out of curiosity because one of the teachers at my school, Bristol Cathedral School, was nick-named after one of the popular wrestlers.”
John just never stopped going from that point on.
“It was always a big social occasion, always was, right up to the bitter end.
“People met future partners there, people even died there during the shows.
“Of the wrestlers who appeared, several went on to much, much bigger things in the States, people like Steve Regal, Dave Taylor and Dave ‘Fit’ Finlay.”
The sport’s truly golden era, when Sixties TV made it essential Saturday afternoon viewing for millions, had become a distant memory along with its host, Kent Walton. In those Swinging Sixties days the likes of Jackie Pallo were household names.
John remembers others who fought in Bristol with affection.
“There was Golden Ray Appollonia, who spoke five languages and was a graduate from the Sorbonne. Prince Masimbula, was an African witch doctor.
“Then there was the Japanese Olympic wrestler who became better known as Odd-Job in the James Bond films.
“The Russian wrestler, Yuri Borienko, was another who starred in Bond movies.
“While Dazzler Joe Cornelius appeared in a film with Joan Crawford and on stage with Harry Secombe at the London Palladium and at the Bristol Hippodrome.”
Bristol has its own homegrown wrestlers, too. Pete and Danny Collins, for example.
One interesting statistic John cites is the fact that since 1960 there have been 15 other venues in Bristol that have hosted wrestling bouts.
Pre-war it was staged at the Victoria Rooms in Clifton, the Drill Hall in Old Market and the Knowle speedway stadium.
“Wrestling has never gone away and any of the current venues all do well.
“It has never really petered out though it did go into a dip when it came off TV.”
The Colston Hall staged its last wrestling night back in 2004, though John says the sport was still extremely popular in the city. The official reason why it finished was never really given, it seems, but the feeling is that some believed it was not the right image for the Colston Hall to portray.
“I drifted into time-keeping for the bouts in the early 1970s at the Colston Hall and did some MC work from ‘74 onwards but always on a voluntary basis.”
Wrestling has undergone a startling transformation in recent years. It has re-shaped, re-modelled and revived itself, courtesy of some American-influenced guile, and it’s fair to say the sport is now well and truly back in the big time. It won’t be coming back to the Colston Hall, of course.
However, what will be coming there, is an intriguing new exhibition, courtesy of some serious artistic effort from Rhiannon Chaloner. Her show, assembled in the foyer of the concert hall, ties in with an art project about the sport which is also being staged at the Arnolfini just across the city centre. It draws heavily on the amazing wrestling memorabilia amassed by Bath’s wrestling guru “Mad Eli” as well as input from John Short, former referee Joe D’Orazio, some wrestlers and some fans.
John Short is adamant, though, when he says, “Wrestling should still be staged there.
“I live in Bristol and pay my council tax.
“I’d like to see it and thousands of others would too, I’m sure.
“Rhiannon’s exhibition won’t do any harm and may do a bit of good.”

I remember well dear old Kent Walton ludicrously defending the integrity of professional wrestling. Equally I remember him back-tracking a few days later either because of a reaction from the viewing public or simply because he knew it was patently obvious to anyone with an iota of common sense that it had to be stage-managed.
I’m sure that wrestling was also televised late on a Wednesday night and always concluded with Kent saying: "happy Thursday Friday, see you Saturday".
