I admit there's a pretty fine line, though, between being "realistic" and being negative. I try not to step over the line.

I think a lot of so-called "recording artists" and movie directors hide behind that. They put out all this negative, profane, disturbing, violent, and/or immoral stuff, and then try to defend it by saying, hey, I'm just depicting the "real world." As if the "real world" is never anything but disturbing, profane, immoral and violent.

Whoa! I got way off the aquarium topic, didn't I?

Anyway, I guess you could best describe me as "appreciative of Jim's work, very hopeful, but with some healthy skepticism too."
