now I hesitate to tell you that I adored Scott McCloud's book, which I found insightful and helpful, because you must think we won't like any of the same things!
Not at all. Today I went to a discussion group and watched two people vehmentally disagree, after the group, I realized they were close friends.
I think we are bound to disagree on certain things, since we are coming at things from vastly different places at times. Also, we don't always share the same sense of humor. ;-)
We also agree on a lot of things.
I like Ex Deus Machina after all, just not runaways. And I enjoyed Firefly and Dollhouse, but found Dr. Horrible to be campy and over the top. Mileage varies. (shrugs).
I've been thinking lately that part of life is learning how to get along with and respect and appreciate people whose views vary from my own. One of the best bosses I've had, a lovely woman, hates Obama and loves Bush. (sigh). We don't discuss it. Life is too short. (grin)
Thanks on the warm bit. It has gotten a wee bit warmer today. Rained all day. But tis warmer. Am hoping for a mild winter, but I don't think I'll get it and may have to invest in more shrinkwrap, and possibly a thermal blanket.
