I hang out with many folks, disagree with most on a number of things, we have rules that we don't talk about certain things..too much other things to have fun on and with. Good job on the article.. now wait mortgages suck?? Very well said, it is also said that having variety in your life is a good thing.

I've had an inner battle about whether to segment the things I like into many blogs, but at the end of the day, I'm not writing to become an expert on gaming, or coding, or writing. I'm writing my blog to share what's going on in my life, and if folks are interested, that's great. If not, that's cool too. I tend to value an authentic voice more than someone pushing a single point of view. Even if I'm not in to everything they write about. At worst, I ignore the post. At best, I learn something new, and I find something to go check out. Discovery has it's place.

Otherwise, I am stuck hearing how sucky mortgage guys are every time I see everyone. Or... Maybe I should start blogging about stuff that at least *some* people like. Including me!

Isn't it better when you are into that obsession as well? Reminds me of a talk by Merlin Mann and John Gruber about the point of blogging, becoming "the expert" in one particular subject. http://www.43folders.com/2009/03/25/blogs-turbocharged My blog is all over the place, and I tend to agree with you. But maybe that's the reason why my blog isn't super popular :) But isn’t it great when you find one obsessive freak who only writes about one specific subject and takes it to depths you thought unimaginable?

Great reminder that we are all different but come together because of what we like in each other. Remember that and focus on it in all of your interactions with people. Good stuff evo.
