Same here. I love Rush though. My wife and I saw them at Red Rocks two years ago. It was pretty great. I would say that it was the best show I have ever been to, but seeing Jimmy Page & The Black Crowes was pretty awesome too. I just had a son in January so I guess those days are over now. Totally worth it though. I can't wait to get him reading ASOIAF. I think that 5 or 6 years old is a good age to get him started of GRRM. Hahaha. So am I correct that the prevailing opinion of the readers here is that the Dunk & Egg books are worth reading? Are they on Kindle?

A theory: Jon Snow is in fact Lightbringer. Rhaegar stabbed Lyanna with his sword and the result was the birth of Jon. Tell me this isn't plausible.

I'll buy into it, though I really can't see how it ties into Sister Hazel c. 1997...and that makes me sad. Also, I'm assuming by "sword" you mean "glistening manhood". All hail Jon Snowbringer! whowhatwhere posted:But his sword didn't pierce her heart Rhaegar was obviously that well endowed.

Jon Arryn is Robert's stepdad who is generally cool and let's his stepson drink beer. Robert wants to go to prom with his best buddy Ned's sister, who is a total babe. Ned's okay with it because he knows under the party boy Spicoli surfer dude act, Robert is actual a good dude, and besides, Lyanna always goes for these douchebag bro types, which he just can't stand. Ned pours himself into his studies so he can get into a good college and Lyanna wants to smoke cigarettes and drink vodka and pass out at parties and act like a total bitch, and just generally piss away her opportunities. So in comes the mayor's son. He's a handsome pretty-boy rich jock douchebag with a Camaro and after the big football game he asks Lyanna to the prom. Meanwhile, Ned's dad and brother have been running the family tire store for years, and the dickbag mayor rezones everything and pulls Ned's dad's business license with some shady poo poo in the city council. So Ned and Robert are pretty much like "OMG gently caress these Targaryen jerks, they think they're so much better than us." A few months later, near graduation, Robert ends up kicking Rhaegar's rear end after gym class, and Rhaegar cries a lot and his reputation is ruined. Ned finds out Lyanna was teen pregnant. After graduation, Robert, being pretty much the most liked guy in town, runs a campaign against the crooked mayor. He has a windfall come his way when he starts dating Tywin's (a city councilman's) dughter. He totally dominates the elections and the Targs move away in disgrace. A lot of people question his authority, being the youngest mayor ever, and he bankrupts the city on conventions and political "fundraisers". But he's generally well regarded by the people.

The intro is a muppet version of GRRM on his drawing board, creating the characters with one stroke of his brush, killing half of them off with another. There's also short muppet segments in the middle, usually with his maid yelling something like "I hope nobody eats this weasel pie while it's cooling on the window sill!" from off screen, then the muppet looks into the camera and makes that weird scrunched face expression, end of scene. The aftermath is shown in the credits. There's also We are talking about a cartoon here, right?
