Crap Fest

The boy and I were in St. Cloud with my family all weekend because he entered his movie into the regional film fest.

The film fest started out pretty bad because we had to wait for people from Carleton to show up, which they never did.

Than we had to wait at least 10 minutes after every movie so the judges could review each one.

We spent three hours there. I think we could have been out of there in an hour and a half.

The people that put on the film fest really need to get their act together.

Every year we go there and we're disappointed because the film fest is so poorly put together.

We might not even go next year because it seems pointless. If the boy wins they can send him his check.

I'm going to start calling St. Cloud St. Suck.

My brother was part of a film festival in Fargo a couple of years ago...same thing...nobody knew what they were doing or what was going on. Completely poor planning...but what can you expect from those "film" people? ;)

I say "The Boy" starts his own film festival. It'd be set up better. I'd at least consider going there. Have you seen Coke Squirrel yet? It's not quite my ultimate but it's pretty close.

According to the City administrator last night: The only thing confirmed is Lowe's. Anything else is either just hype or silly rumors.

Hey, they should build it somewhere central, like Orr.
