My friend Bunny slightly mistook my entry on Dan Brown's Digital Fortress [1], thinking I was looking down on her for liking the book. Not in the sightest—I personally don't like the book, but hey, people have raved about Gravity's Rainbow [2], claiming it a literary masterpiece of the 20^th Century; I couldn't get past 50 pages. Heck, I couldn't get into Lord of the Rings [3] and that pretty much makes me a pariah in Geek Circles.
On the flip side, there are things that I like that I am hesitant to even mention liking that I know are bad, such as my fascination with the singing career of William Shatner (The Transformed Man by William Shatner) [4] (it's not that I like it … oh heck, yes! I like it! There!). So while Bunny likes Digital Fortress [5], I like a guy that can't even sing properly.
Sigh.
