It's My Prerogative... This site, for those of you who haven't fallen asleep on the bus, is dedicated to private eyes. That seems pretty clear, but every now and then, someone starts bitching to me about who I've listed -- or not listed -- on the site. The definition I use is pretty elastic (in a nutshell, the site is for "private eyes and other tough guys and gals who make trouble their business -- not their hobby"). The definition has served the site pretty well over the years, ever since we first started back on April 1, 1998, and has been stretched to include not just private eyes, but also some journalists, lawyers, professional criminals, bodyguards, insurance investigators and the like -- anyone who, while working their profession, might reasonably be expected to act like a private eye. For example, a gardening columnist might not ber expected to investigate the murder of the man she found under the rose bushes. BUT her colleague working the crime beat might. But of course there are always those characters that find their way here who don't really belong. Their inclusion is usually because I feel visitors here will enjoy these characters, or because I personally gets a kick out of them. Believe it or not, I'm no dimwit (well, most of the time)-- I know very well when I'm bending (or breaking) my own rules. But it is MY site. And so, from now on, when you see the running head up above, you'll know that I'm exercising my editorial prerogative, and you won't waste your time moaning and groaning about it. But if it still really bugs you, start your own damned web site. | Home | Detectives A-L M-Z | Film | Radio | Television | Web Comics | Comics | FAQs | Remember, your comments, suggestions, corrections and contributions are always welcome.
