That's more of an alternative interpretation IMO, but yeah I suppose it could fit.
How do you feel about the concept of a P.O.V. Sequel?

Now that example is really a remake. A P.O.V. sequel would be like if someone wrote a novel about the R&J from the perspective of say Mercutio. Rent would not be a P.O.V. sequel to La Boheme for example, seeing as they don't even take place in the same century or country. Same with R&J and West Side Story. Different centuries, different ethnic groups, different continents...

Well, it's not a movie but... http://www.amazon.com/Death-Star-Wars-Michael-Reav...

14Yeah. The author Jim Butcher once said in an interview, and I'm paraphrasing, "There's no such thing as a bad idea in fiction, only bad execution." That always stuck with me, and it was what has motivated me to step up my writing.Has anyone said anything memorable to you that sticks with you?
15Yeah it does.Does being addressed by "terms of endearment" from strangers bother you in anyway?
16I don't think it's a coincidence that public support for HCR started dropping as soon as the Dems started making ridiculous levels of compromise to get the 60 vote majority, which if you ask me is the dumbest thing to happen to the Senate in a long time. How about getting rid of the rule change that doesn't require a Senator to remain on the floor if he wants to filibuster? If the Right Wing Nut Jobs in the Senate are really against HCR for legit reasons as opposed to just doing it for the insurance lobby donations and to make President Obama look bad, then let them prove it by reading from the phone book or whatever for 24 hours straight.How do you feel about Health Care Reform?

Yes, because 59 of 100 is a minority right? I mean, what are the Democrats to do! They've lost their largest majority since Watergate and now only have the SECOND largest majority since Watergate!  * rolls eyes * I'm sorry. Democratic defeatism is one of my pet peeves.

Bush/Cheney never had a majority this large in either house of Congress, and yet they got EVERYTHING they wanted through. We can do this if we stop being pussies about it and just DO it.

19...these. Who am I to disagree?

Sweet dreams are made of.....
20To be fair, my primary desire would be to be remembered as a Podcaster and a Writer, but given the choice, opposing liars of course. Now that it's been a bit since I wrote this, I've come to the realization that the most likely option to get the most votes would be the 3rd one; not remembered at all by history. Who wants that kind of pressure, right?  * wink * After you die, would you rather history regarded you as a liar, or someone who opposed liars?
