Nice to know that we're not the only ones...
Wed, 7 Oct 2009, 10:13 pmSeems someone else is now getting a barrage of comments from wannabe starlets:

(Hint: read the comments)
It's sad that youngsters out there are so used to the internet now ('now'... man, I'm getting old...) that they can't spot the difference between a posted announcement/media release and an advert/casting call. Nor do they seem aware of the likehood of anyone actually caring whether or not they post on some random website; or think "hey, look 50 people who want to audition. I should get their info and have them come in!"
... Sigh... it looks like our work is never done.
If critical thinking isn't
Thu, 8 Oct 2009, 01:39 pmIf critical thinking isn't in fact taught in schools anymore than that is just plain wrong. And kinda crazy.
In the face of the continual and seemingly unrestrained march of science into all of our lives, the one thing that should be taught in schools IS critical thinking, I should think.
It's no good for me to get into this, though. It upsets my way of thinking and distracts me from the ordinary working order of my mind.
I don't even know what that means... I kinda do... I don't... I don't know, but I do... Arghhh... Crap! Enough! I'm outta here, for now -
