After 40 years, Pilobolus Dance may be wearing out

Posted Mon, Oct 10, 1:54 p.m.

Having read three of Crosscut’s reviews and having seen the shows involved (Three Penny Opera, Mary Stuart, and Pilobolus), I am forced to ask the editors of Crosscut where the hell you come up with these pseudo-intellectual, claptrap reviewers? It is no wonder your reviews are considered a joke by ...

'Spiritual but not religious' - how smug is that?

Posted Sun, Sep 18, 4:03 p.m.

Saying one is "spiritual but not religious" is a copout. It means that they either have not bothered to look into any religion - or are afraid to commit to anything.

'Threepenny Opera': Where's the Brecht?

Posted Tue, Feb 22, 8:09 p.m.

I think you are a bit off base here. How is a company like the Seattle Shakespear Company supposed to pay for the rights for a new translation of the Brecht/Weile piece? I think you are expecting a bit much. The Blitzenstein version is indeed a hollow construction compaired to ...

Why we hate soccer

Posted Wed, Nov 21, 11:30 a.m.

Soccer vs US sports: One of the big differences between the four main sports in the US and soccer is simply the flow of the games. soccer tends to be continious, flowing, non-stop. With maybe the possible exception of hockey-which is kind of like soccer on ice-all dominant US sports ...

Greg Nickels is everywhere

Posted Tue, Oct 9, 12:37 p.m.

Knowing Nickels: It probably is a pre-condo harvesting. Amazing what happens it this town when the Mayor gets a "campaign" contribution.

A painful reminder for Seattle in The War

Posted Thu, Oct 4, 11:31 a.m.

It was greed, simply greed.: Take a look and the history of eastern asian immigration. There was a long history of discrimination against these peoples. They were banned from becoming US citizens and land ownership. Land purchases were made in the name of immigrants' US born children since these offspring ...

A P.R. war that could be seen as the neighbors vs. sick kids

Posted Mon, Sep 17, 2:17 p.m.

RE: Spread the wealth: I believe that Seattle Childrens is supposed to serve as The Place for Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Alaska. While Tacoma does have Mary Bridge Childrens, it syas it serves southwest Washingtonand tries not to market against Seattle Childrens. I am not sure Mary Bridge can provide ...

Sorry to (not) see: Please put back the links ot the regions newpaper web sites. You say your are regional but you fail to allow reviews of the arts scenes in other areas including Spokane, Walla Walla, the Tri Cities, Eugene, Vancouver (your pick), Victoria, etc. These places have theaters, ...

And now the rest of the KUOW story

Posted Tue, Sep 11, 11:23 a.m.

The changes are there: In spite of what Misters Roth and Hansen say, there has been a lvery obvious lowering in the quatity of KUOW's programming. Evenings now are repeats, repeats, and more repeats. Maybe the air time for call-in programs is the same, I find that the topics have ...

A staff departure ruffles Seattle's popular and public KUOW-FM

Posted Thu, Aug 30, 11:09 a.m.

Maybe this why: I have greatly reduced my KUOW time. The Swing Years, ABSOLUTELY! The Writer's Almanac, YOU BET! BBC at 3 AM, sure what with its much better, not dumbed-down content. BUT: Open Source, gag me with a spoon since the host is never properly prepared for the discussions. ...
