1996?! You are the one slipping, Dear.
T...SIGH...<br />1996?! You are the one slipping, Dear. <br /><br />The most recent South Park (premiered after this post) was about how Honey Boo-Boo had lowered the bar so far that John Cameron and Randy Newman took to the ocean depths to try to raise it. Get with the program!<br /><br />A critic is one who is compensated in some way for his/her opinion. I am a patron (i.e. one who supports the arts through subscription, purchase, and/or donation) and I have an opinion and I have a blog. <br />The blog has my name on it and I get weary of ANONYMOUS comments. I got so much nasty communication after my review of the awful direction of "Oklahoma" at PPT that I had to temporarily suspend comments and delete the obscene ones. <br />(Is that you still holding a grudge, BB?)<br /><br />If you don't have the balls to leave your real name and email, then I urge you to please go elsewhere for theater reviews and avoid this site. <br />Paul R Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881761674232241904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3347946747350476176.post-64356685068785262532012-10-11T13:04:00.027-05:002012-10-11T13:04:00.027-05:00Thanks for the feedback...however Cameron & Ne...Thanks for the feedback...however Cameron & Newman haven't been pop culture references since '96 (you're slipping). My true issue for re-visiting your blog with my commentary this time around though is to address the fact that you say you are "not a critic"...WHAT??? Being opinionated or having an opinion, expounding on it in a public forum, regardless if your viewpoint is positive OR negative is critical. Thus your critical "opinion" as you put it, deems you a critic. Many items showcased on your blog such as event notices and personal day by day accounts are not...however when you give your blog "opinion" in point by point manner and voice how you feel it could have been different, better, worse, etc...you are most certainly a critic. - Anon#2.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3347946747350476176.post-7636893938526329622012-10-05T16:56:22.851-05:002012-10-05T16:56:22.851-05:00Anonymous #1 - Thanks for stopping by!
Anonymous...Anonymous #1 - Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br /><br />Anonymous #2 - Honey Boo-Boo is a perfect example of how low the bar has gotten for what passes for entertainment. Perhaps you can assist James Cameron and Randy Newman in raising that bar. (OOPS! Sorry...another pop culture reference!)<br /><br /><br />Anonymous #3 - You must be new here. I have stated repeatedly that I am not a journalist; I am not a critic; I am a patron with an opinion. If you are looking for professional journalism or professional criticism, then this not the site for you! I SUPPOSE that you are implying that the word is used incorrectly or improperly but it is not.Paul R Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881761674232241904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3347946747350476176.post-76740070729395096992012-10-04T13:21:38.317-05:002012-10-04T13:21:38.317-05:00The word "suppose" shows just what a won...The word "suppose" shows just what a wonderful journalist you are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3347946747350476176.post-1805431837913226032012-10-03T09:36:29.163-05:002012-10-03T09:36:29.163-05:00Many of your points are spot-on...however I wonder...Many of your points are spot-on...however I wonder, do you people watch at the local parks and restaurants too just to pick the common person or audience apart for the way they follow their respective emotions and opinions? And Honey Boo-Boo, seriously? If you don't think your own review stands alone on substance please don't make pop culture references to make yourself sound relevant, the reality is far from it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3347946747350476176.post-858321378685431792012-09-19T18:16:33.368-05:002012-09-19T18:16:33.368-05:00Thanks Paul... always enjoy your take on things.Thanks Paul... always enjoy your take on things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
