To me, reviews are not worth reading. I prefer to experience things for myself, whether it’s a restaurant or a movie. Had I listened to the reviews of “Caddyshack,” I would have never seen the movie. And it is hilarious.

In lieu of reviews, I ask for referrals. I have found great doctors that way. Restaurants, too! And hotels. The list goes on.

Word of mouth is the best review, good or bad…
