NO ONE TO NARRATE
What is wrong with this great picture from Nashville? Why, there's no one in the photo to narrate.
Our son and his high school friends in an effort to enlighten their lives began the art of narrating. Briefly, narrating is just that.
With windows rolled down in the car, one passenger or driver shouts out what he observes. As we were narrated on Tuesday night in MTV by our son," Parents walking. Walking in the rain. Freezing because they're from Arizona." And that's it.
It was night and there were no others on the street at that time which lessens the effect. He just wanted to let us know that he still narrates on occasion.
When others are around it serves to embarrass them. Sometimes they react. Then the narrator may make a comment that is not flattering. Or he may choose to be objective in his reporting to whatever ears are out there.
It was harmless back in the '90's. Today, I'd probably be a little more selective in narrating. The only shots back then were verbal. Maybe not so today.
