Welcome To My Opinions!

When I first had the idea for this blog, it was still the mid 1990's and ok so I wasn't thinking blog back then, I wasn't that technologically progressive, I was thinking a column in a print publication, and I was also thinking only about reviewing current things like concerts or films. Not the regular insider type of review but one from just the regular person going to see a show, from the cheap seats, no frills, no extra perks like backstage passes or pre screenings. So now blogging is really the way to go if you want to get your thoughts out to the world at large without the benefit of actually getting paid for it. So that lands me here. I talked to my husband about my idea and we thought it would be great to get not just one but two opinions on things and that would be two sometimes very different opinions on things. 

   So I set up this blog and let him know, and suddenly he didn't like my idea. So I figured I'd go back to doing it by myself, and then last night he tells me he wants back in again. So this time it's me, Kerrie, but sometimes it will be him, Darren, and maybe even both of us together depending on what we are talking about.

I had originally intended this to be reviews of current movies, music, tv shows, etc but as I thought about it I realized I really wanted to talk about a lot of things, so there will be entertainment reviews of both old and new stuff, as well as reviews on restaurants, retail establishments, products, and any thing else I come across in my day that I think needs to be either shamed or praised. I may also pull out past stories about things that have happened before, like our experiences with the staff and issues at major theme parks, I have had a few notable run ins at more than just one park franchise. 

   Feel free to throw in a topic or an item you want to see discussed, use the comments as much as you like. I am hoping to keep this as a twice a week blog, Tuesdays and Thursdays, we'll see how that goes. I have off weeks as we all do sometimes so I may miss a post or post too much every now and then. Thanks for checking me out and I look forward to feedback. I'm off to figure out what my first topic should be!
