Review of Silly house rules


Seeing the title of this piece, I expected it to be fun and off-beat, and was pleased to find myself correct.

The whole thing was rather simple and short; just a few quick interviews with students about odd rules around their homes.

I was a bit down and frustrated before listening to the story; I hadn't had a very good day. However, the story was very quirky and funny, and, by the time I had finished it, I found that I felt much more cheerful than before.

The sound wasn't perfect, and there were a few parts that I felt could have been cut out (such as pauses in talking, etc), but in a way, that really added to the overall effect: lighthearted and unconventional. I could easily see this being on a collegiate radio station in some form or another.
