I liked that! Especially the "The Line As" montage!

And when he make his first angle!

Don't know about you but I didn't think the Dot deserved the Line at the end. And what about the poor Squiggle. What did he ever do wrong?

Yeah! I saw the dot as a kind of Gold Digger. She was after whatever SHE wanted once she got it she moved on.

She did provide the inspiration for all of the line's accomplishments though. Like a muse.

Have you ever read the little novelette called Flatland? I think that was the name. All about life in many dimensions-it was kind of cool. Start from a point and work your way out to 3-D and more.
