Thinking of entering? Do it! Here's ideas why!

Love, love, love your entry! You have a voice that I don't feel I often hear on radio, yet I want to. You captured my imagination the whole way through -- and I totally fell for the eyeball thing! I hope you make it to round 2! And thanks for the kind words on my entry, too :)

Cheers,

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life -- and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted t

Joseph- I really enjoyed your clip! I can tell that aside from stepping into a big puddle of sassy every morning, you are a very hosty person. Best of luck!

I liked it a lot and laughed at the end! You have a really cool voice, too.

Keep on rockin' in the free world.

I enjoyed listening to your entry and wish you good luck. You've got some good pacing and your delivery is well done.

Man On The Train

I like the way you used the eyeballs reference to open and close the piece and your reason for structuring it that way. You held my interest and made think. A clever, charming and memorable entry. Well done.

Good luck.

Mary

you are a fellow freak. For that alone I enjoyed your piece. And clearly you are way smarter than me because I didn't get the haiku thing and all that. I simply liked your honesty, your tone and bass of your voice and your obvious concern for human kind. We all thank you, you witty thing you.

Whatever you vividly imagine, earnestly desire and enthusiastically act upon must inevitably come to pass.

Where have you been hiding all of my contest life, jomki? Spectacular entry - superb writing, excellent vocal delivery style, wonderful set of pipes, and a great sense of humor. PLUS, methinks you are a psychology person? The eyeball thing you're describing is EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing)- to the layman, it sounds like hocus pocus, but as one who's had EMDR therapy, I can vouch it's the real deal.

Okay (and I'm ticking this off my fingers as I type - now THAT'S a trick) - you can host, you can write, you're smart, you're funny, you're well-versed in a number of areas.... seems like you have what it takes to go straight to the top.

(And you can write a pretty damned good limerick to boot - you have rhythm and meter down perfectly. And I'm fussy about these things...)

Great voice, wry humor and I loved your kissing up to the judges... very funny! Thanks for a great entry; I'm glad you entered!

The timing. As others have said -- you hit it just right. This was an excellent entry.

You surely have good timing.
I really liked your voice!

Solid work, humorous, and very thoughtful, your entry exhibits a lot of personality. I enjoyed it!

Best of luck!

Thanks for making this Talent Quest work.

You've got a gift for comic timing; the throat-clearing half-beat after the gushing adoration for the judges, the reference to "stea ... listening to" later entries... funny, funny stuff, and nicely subtle.

Of course, as a later-entrant I have no idea what you're implying about advantages and disadvantages. Ahem.

Anyhow, your personality shines through this. I found it a charming piece, and one of the few at which I laughed out loud. Good show!

Adam

it is funny what the power of suggestion can do. i was totally moving them back and forth for like 20 seconds, until i realized you were having fun with us! :)

Is it real popcorn or the idea of popcorn we would be marketing? Because if it is the "idea" of popcorn we might really be on to something. Very low overhead -- unless that means we have to put the buyers up in a cave overnight so they can experience it. I think that should be their problem, don't you? Would that hold up in a court of law?

Oh man, I am seeing a tie-in with that new Cave Man movie. And laughing our way to the bank.

By the way, you PRTQ idea-stealers, this posting constitutes copyright of the Plato's Cave brand.

If this were the Public Haiku Talent Quest, we would all have to back away slowly, bowing to the master. This is the best use of Haiku I have ever seen/heard/read or smelled.

Go buy a laptop
Run around the house with it
And type on the pot!

Excellent.
Oh, and your submission ain't bad neither.
And I love the illustration in your photo space thingy.
You reek of coolness.

Ears listen, mind remembers.

into doing the bidding of lesser men than you. Anyways you needn't have bothered. I was pre-sold by the title you came up with for the Quaker Oats guy's movie "The Wrath of the Quaker Wraith!" I suppose you put something subliminal in that too that caused me to click on your link...or maybe that's why I went to buy popcorn and Junior Mints right before sitting down to listen to your entry? Either way it's all very tasty.

Entertaining. Good luck. If so inclined, check out http://www.publicradioquest.com/audio/user/6076

I enjoyed it and laughed out loud. Made some good points, too!

Check mine out; do it for the kids...

Very nice! You could have entered as entertainment as you made me laugh, and want more. Good luck. I didn't want to send $, sorry.

Very nice job indeed--you give us a real sense of your personality (engaging, with a nice sense of humor) and you let us hear your smooth, interesting voice, without a lot of extraneous noise. Best of luck!
