On the desk in front of you is a DVD and a book. Both the same title. Which do you undertake? Reading or watching?
I'll use the book to set my glass on while I watch the DVD.

|  | no really, smokemeth&hailsatan | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Pueblo, CO | | | Depends on which movie/book. Some books are pretty boring and need the visual aspect of the book to help them along. However most books are way more interesting than the movie. |

If you're going to do both, always go for the book first. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
