Game of Thrones Season 6 Discussion [SPOILERS WITHIN]
June 4, 2016 at 8:03 pm
Just got something in the mail...
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I've got the short story collection that includes one about Dunkirk and Egg. That's actually where I first heard of Martin. The book was called Legends, I got it for the prequel story for Wheel of Time, but it got me into a couple of other authors.
I'd love to read that! Maybe after I finish the Robin Hobb book I'm in the middle of. Let us know how it is.

This is the newest version of the three Dunk and Egg stories. You've probably read them, or at least The Hedge Knight.

There's a new Chris Nolan film about that, he invited Chris Pine to be in it, but he declined saying he'd already dun Kirk.

I'm so glad I got my old man into the show. In the space of two weeks he went from sneering at the 'dragons and shit' to aggressively poking me to load up the next episode
Looking forward to viewing a brand-new ep with him tomorrow night. BRINGETH IT!

Oh please! As soon as it's aired, I slip on my eye patch and go reaving across the internet to find me a decent HD copy, a-har!
