Godzilla vs. King Kong

The standards Parker spells out for himself are or ought to be standard for any professional critic of anything and frequently are for some film and theater critics, where the same kind of disappearing lines between socializing and being bribed can occur (book critics seem to be supposed to carry out long, esoteric feuds that shape their reviews and thus exist under another category). I'm not sure why he tries to define other standards for those writing for him, other than that he thinks he can't enforce his own

Good question, which is why I suppose that they are independent contractors, not employees. Well, that and not having to pay benefits.

Nope. My team was eliminated by Ovechkin. I'm just glad he's out now. Revenge sucks, but it's all I've got in hockey.
 
As a one-time student of Stop Motion Animation, I have to add that there are two versions of the battle from which this thread draws its name. King Kong vs. Godzilla and Godzilla vs. King Kong. The only difference coming at the very end. I must admit to being a Godzilla guy myself...

I tried to read it, but then my head started to hurt, and the Bze at the side of me didn't help - though I felt more comfortable...

Guess I won't be witnessing the caning, then. Maybe I'll just have to discuss Ovechkin with Joe Perry again to see blood.

Wait, Perry is anti-Ovechkin, the most compelling player in hockey? Wow, this is almost as embarrasing as being anti-Allemand.
 
Perry likes wispy moustaches on his hockey players and gets nervous when people celebrate. He likes Sidney and probably Danny Briere too.
 
You are too subtle, Joe.

I wonder if this is what our newspapers will be like after they enter into bankruptcy and are subsequently either nationalized or bought up by Rupert Murdoch. All those people with bad opinions will not be allowed in.
