Collaborative Efforts: Opposed & Juxtaposed

In an effort to perhaps expand our writing horizons and encourage the exchange of free thoughts and opinions, my longtime friend and fellow blogger K.A. Denby and I have joined cahoots to bring you a new section to each of our blogs: Opposed & Juxtaposed.

It's an opportunity for us to take a look at what's going on in the world (be it globally or even just our little sliver of it) and comment and argue about all that's good, well, silly, wasteful, and just plain there. Sometimes, we agree, but sometimes we don't. Sometimes, there's only the partial agreement and others there's more. Hopefully, you enjoy it. If not, then your tastes will improve the more you come back.

This week's and our first topic: Which is more wasteful: Video Gaming or Pleasure Reading? The grounds on this topic are that while video gaming is easily considered "a gigantic time drain". The counter point is that couldn't reading "fiction for simple pleaseure be the same?". Kris will be taking the high road on this, opining his take on the value of reading for pleasure; while I will take the modern time vacuum that is gaming.
