The totally unofficial ‘I don’t want to appear to have sour grapes but . . . ‘ ITA Finlay Award forum topic.

My infantile pedantry aside, the anonymous "Theatre Goer" raises a good point- no other nominee has commented thus far. Why is this? I would venture a guess that it's because the other nominees might actually want to win! Any adverse comment might jinx them! You know what superstitious creatures actors can be... Umm, no- I won't "leave it" (as you so politely request) until the nomination is rescinded. Do it, ITA- I dares ya! If I don't win, I won't look any more of a fool than I do normally. In fact I will be vindicated because I have stated from the get-go that I won't win. If I (by some hideous freakish fate) DO win the blasted thing, then I will have to put Plan B into effect.... whatever Plan B might actually be... haven't thought that far ahead, as I'm relying on Plan A to come off. As you may have gathered from my previous postings, and from this one too, the Finley awards is something I do not take the remotest bit seriously. I won't even be there. But I can't resist poking the Finley Bear when it raises its ursine head.... Eliot McCann (who at least has the balls to sign his real name on his posts).
